I also forgot to add Intamin's Flight Trainers and their Looping Starships.

A few rides that are actually worth riding at Knott's are the Wave Swinger, La Revolucion, Riptide, Boomerang, Montezooma's Revenge, and Pony Express. Those are musts, but the intensity of them depends on your discretion. Everything else you can ride if you have time of course, but if you're there for the whole day, by all means ride everything there!

Personally, I like Zierer for their Wave Swingers and Fire Balls; HUSS for their Top Spins, Flic-Flacs, and Magics; Chance for their Yoyos and Falling Stars; Mondial for their Swingers and Diablos; Zamperla for their Rotoshakes; KMG for their Experiences, Tangos, Afterburners, Speeds, and Inversions; Fabbri for their Evolutions; and RBPR for their Evolutions.

At Knott's, depending on what rides your bodies can handle, I would try to hit all of the rides there, get anything with boysenberries in it, and try to avoid the shops unless they have something there that's really worthwhile. If you want to check which rides are currently running on the day you're going, check their website and call their hotline and listen until they give you directions on which numbers to press to get ride availability.

I totally have a question for anyone who works at Knott's now that this topic has been brought up. Why is it that whenever they do maintenance, they mess with the ride program? Example: the Wave Swinger - two months ago it was down for a week because they were doing tests such as lift tests, carousel rotation tests, and things like that. When it opens, it doesn't raise to as high as it used to which is where it tops off and gives riders that jolt. Now, it's back to normal with going full height with the jolt, but when it lowers, the hydraulic lifting pole doesn't stop rotating until it applies the brakes, which I guess is the loud rumbling near the end. It never used to do that before. Why is this?
