Best B&M Standup
RideofSteel replied to pkdcoaster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I chose Chang because that's the only stand-up that I have rode, but I think it's too rough. Depending on what row you choose the ride is either fun (First 3 rows) or slightly rough (Last 2 rows). The inclined loop is a killer on your legs though. Next year I'll be going on Iron Wolf when it's moved to 6 Flags America. -

I've only been on Kingda Ka, but next summer I'll be going on TTD! -
What is the coolest coaster name?
RideofSteel replied to Hilltopper39's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I really like the names Blue Fire, Mantis, Orochi, Son of Beast, and Kingda Ka. -
Best Drop Ride!!!
RideofSteel replied to coaster_shorty's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I've only been on a couple drop towers, the tallest one being at Six Flags America. But, I found the ride to be lame. It slowly pulled you up, and you sat at the top for a couple seconds too long. Then, just like that you hit the brakes. My favorite that I've been on is a maybe 50 ft high Moser tower. There's some awesome airtime, and the restraints were really loose. Lex Luther looks awesome! I hope I can ride it in the next couple of years! -
Coolest Ride Vehicles
RideofSteel replied to Cerberus's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
El Toro's trains are awesome with the bull horns! Also, I really liked Rockin' Roller Coaster's trains. -
Worst Coaster Ever?
RideofSteel replied to Mind Eraser's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
My personal worst coaster ever was the Runaway Train at Gillian's Pier in Ocean City, New Jersey. It's short and has bad transitions. The restraint felt so flimsy too. Also up on my ranks, is The Mind Eraser at Six Flags America. It's painful...even for a SLC. -
How did you get your screen name?

From what I've read, since December 2010. -
What's the worst station you've been in
RideofSteel replied to tribar's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
My vote goes to B:TR at Great Adventure. That station is so hot and miserable....Mostly in the summer when they are only running one train (which is rare!) -
Alton Towers Discussion Thread
RideofSteel replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That looks awesome! -
1. Single train ride operations....I can't stand waiting for half an hour when there are only like ten people waiting for each row. It drives me crazy. I would rather have a slightly longer line that moves! 2. Rude G.P. and employees....Its hilarious yet so annoying when you are standing in line behind people that have no clue what they are talking about. I was waiting in line for Superman: U.F. at Great Adventure and the people in front of me were talking about how there were apparently many deaths on that coaster. They ended up scaring some lady out of riding it. 3. Lines to Get Food....We waited long enough to go on the coasters and now we need to wait twenty minutes for lunch! 4. Slow Dispatches....Batwing takes about twenty minutes a dispatch...Enough said.

What are some loud rides and coasters?
RideofSteel replied to JFrombaugh's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The Green Lantern Coaster at Great Adventure (formerly Chang) has a amazing B&M roar. You can hear it from anywhere on the boardwalk, and from Kingda Ka's line. Also, Bizzaro at Great Adventure is also horribly loud right in between the dive loop and the zero G roll. The rattle and roar almost makes waiting in line unbearable.
