Most INTENSE Coaster Moment?
alpengeist04 replied to EuroTre's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Based on my experiences years ago with Hypersonic, I can't think of anything being more intense than Dodonpa's launch. -

What was your favorite ride of 2013?
alpengeist04 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Coaster (PNE), currently #4 on my wooden coaster list. I-305, currently #8 on my steel coaster list. At least in 2014 & 2015 I'll be riding a lot more of my top 10s. -
What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?
alpengeist04 replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Kraken last Wednesday. ...Now just waiting till after New Years to return to the parks again. -
BGT- I would love to see a RMC woodie or Intamin prefab replace Gwazi. With Kumba, Montu, SheiKra, and Cheetah Hunt, either one of those new additions would give BGT the best coaster lineup in the US. SeaWorld- An Intamin mega would look great to go along with Kraken and Manta. Universal- Keep doing what you're doing, adding new theming and rides to both sides. WDW resort- I would love to see a lot of Marvel come to the parks, but with Universal that's not going to happen, so I'll take more Star Wars please.

Best Coaster Layouts
alpengeist04 replied to Randomman295's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
A couple people have mentioned Kumba, and I believe this was B&M's best work. The flow and pacing of the ride is near flawless. Not to mention, Kumba's zero-g roll is the best inversion I have ever experienced. Truly, an absolute masterpiece. -

I was at IOA this morning and will probably visit Magic Kingdom early next week. -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
alpengeist04 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think Talon is a good coaster. The problem is there are a lot of good Inverts, so it gets lost in the crowd. ...Afterburn too. -

Looks like 63/100 for me. -
B&M vs Intamin
alpengeist04 replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Not to mention that I have noticed a rattle on all the B&M hypers over the last couple years. I'm not saying they're rough or anything, but there are definitely some smoother Intamins out there. -
2014 TPR Tour Questionnaire is out!
alpengeist04 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
QFT I couldn't agree more, great coaster. Honestly, the Pacific Northwest may have the least amount of credits of the trips offered, but what it does have to offer is 3 of the best wooden coasters in North America. ...Coaster at Playland (4th on my wooden coaster list), Timber Terror (7th on my list), and Tremors (8th on my list). ...Not bad at all. Edit: Not to mention Timberhawk at Wild Waves being a surprisingly good ride.
