Best Drops....

Since i didn't like the selectiveness of the "First drop on woodies" topic, I decided to start a topic about the best drops on ANY ride. Coaster or not.

Woodies

-I like the death drop on Raven.

-The drop down to the water on Cornball is awesome in the backseat.

Steel

-The droping part of the "2nd loop" on Mindbender at SFoG is great.

Other

-Achrophobia

-I liked Plunge before they neutered it.

Wood:

- Any on the Phoenix (Airtime!!)

- 'The Drop' on Ghostrider

Steel:

- X's Skydive

- Xcel's Tophat (I love how it seems like it's going to dump right on to the street below)

Other:

- PP before neuterification (soo steep)

- ToT at DCA (only seat-belts!)

I totally just posted about this in the Best 1st Drop...said it was hard to pick and I wanted to list any drop on a woody!

That being said...Jack Rabbits Double Down & Cyclops' Psycho thing!

Elissa "drop rides...Acrophobia & Blue Fall are insane!" Alvey

Like I stated in the other thread right below Elissa:

Jack Rabbit - Double Down

// I also dig the 5th drop on Raven. "Death Drop" = not cool

Mummy USF launch hill drop in the back row = Awesome!

Don "oh...and Acro" Juice

I am a huge fan of Raven, my current #1 but I have to say that I like Ghostrider's "The Drop" a little better, It just seems ever slighlty more powerful. The ravens is pure coaster goodness, but what makes the Raven is that drop and all the track after it, it quite literally flies by.

There's that crazy drop Omega side at Space -- I NEVER yell on coasters, except that little 30 ft drop there.

Call me unimaginative, but...front row, first drop on MF. Jesus!

Wood:

The second drop on Thundercoaster

Steel:

The first drop on Superman Attracion de Acero in the backseat

The vertical drops on Stunt Fall

Millennium Force at Cedar Point

Boomerang at Six Flags Elitch Gardens

Sidewinder at Six Flags Elitch Gardes(all air time)

Best Woodie Drop: The last drop on Kennywood's Thunderbolt.

Best Steelie Drop: The first drop of Millenium Force

Almost Any of the drops on Apollo's Charriot.

Best Woodie Drop: The last drop on Kennywood's Thunderbolt.

That is a goodie. If you ride it a bunch of times in a row, that is the one place that will bust you up though.

I agree with Jeezes Juice. Even though it's not that big, you get some great airtime.

Any drop on an inverted coaster.

Comet's first drop.

Just off the top of my head:

Skull Mountain - backseat

Windstorm - mid run drop

The Boss - double down first drop

Any SLC - first drop, I love how you end up whipping around the tight curve banked almost completely sideways

Dudley Do-Right - yeah, it's a flume, but god that drop scared me

PKD Grizzly - the tunnel drop (well, it's more of a tiny hop)

PKD Anaconda - I'm alone here, but I just love the first drop

Mamba - second drop, goes below grade, extreme air

SFA Superman - third hill/drop, probably the most extreme moment of air on any coaster I've ridden

/user goes blank

That's all can think of right now.

-kip-

For me it is the first drop on EGF^^

It´s just so amazing, espacially when you sit in the back row on the left seat.

Best Woodie drop: 1st drop Colossos and the double drop on Loup Garou

3 drops came to mind initially. Firstly, Expedition GeForce's first drop. It's like the Big One's but, well, good. The way you just can't see where you're going from the top of the lifthill scared the hell out of me the first time!

Secondly, Magnum Force/Dreier Looping's first drop. The major banking and crazy speed on that drop makes it the most intense one i've experienced.

The third one, while not much is the pre-lift drop from the station on Nemesis: Inferno. It's basically just B&M showing off, but it's the best bit of the ride, and it's very cool!

I'd have to say the best woodie drop is the first drop on the Coney Island Cyclone in the next to last row - no other coaster yanks my stomach into my throat like that.

The best drops I have expeirenced are

Wooden : Thunder Run (SFKK) there is a ton of air time on this ride.

Steel : The Incredible Hulk Coaster (IOA) The turn around after the second loop and off of the break run.

Hulk's turn around and break run

1. Millennium Force

2. Xcelerator

3. Villain (drop after MCBR)

4. GA Cyclone (back seat)

Dropzone @ PGA (My friend told me that they added a fake drop but I haven't heard anything about it yet, so I doubt it)

My bunkbed when it collapsed with me on it

Thrillshot w/ the old pod

Goliath SFMM (I thought for sure we couldn't fit in that tunnel!)

Roar SFMW

Wood: GR

Steel: X ( Face first then Flip!!!) Goliath (Airtime, speed), Deja Vu.

Tower: Vertigo or Thrill Shot ( Face first at top and all the way back down)

Supreme Scream, Free fall.

Wood: Colossus first drop (at SFMM) 4th seat

Steel: X "Skydive"

Tower: Thrill Shot

Antonio"I love that drop on X"G.

Legend- back seat. That drop is just insane. One of two first drops that still puts butterflies in my stomach (the other being Vortex)

Phantom's Revenge- That second drop is just amazing, but the first drop doesn't receive enoughc credit.

Dominator- First drop, back seat, either of the far ends. Just try it.

Top Thrill Dragster- Do I really need to explain this?

Millennium Force- ^

Jack Rabbit- The double-down

Vortex at PKI- back seat. Once again, you just have to experience it. The airtime is insane.

Steel

Top Thrill Dragster (corrected, someone wake me up at work again please...), back seat right - whoa nice air on the twisting drop

Skull Mountain, back seat either - bonus points for "slapping the pumpkin"

Apollo's Chariot, back or front rows - great floater air, recliner seating a big plus!

Wood

Georgia Cyclone, back seat - massive ejector air all over the place, especially drop 4 or 5, bonus points for rainy weather

Ghostrider, back seat - drop 5, nothing else to say...

Raven, back seat - blissfull drop 5 airtime

Tremors, front or back seat - first drop, whoa

Thunderhead, front seat - good air in several spots, great air in 1 or 2 spots

Raptor has an awesome first drop, it twist to the left but banks to the right and pulls out straight just in time, hard to describe but feels awesome.
