A Polar coaster with an observation tower, an S&S power swing on top of it and then a coaster with a vertical lift in the middle of the polar one's spiral lift which would have the biggest drop in the world!! -

How is the capacity of a polar coaster? Is it supposed to have dozens of brake runs like Rip Ride Rockit? -

Mitch Hawker's steel roller coaster poll 2013 !
rcjp replied to booink's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Just one thing: I know this may sound ridiculous but given that I've basically only been on 1 family ride (big thunder mountain) should I rank it according to how good it is for its kind or how much I like to ride it compared to the other coasters I've been on? Because that would make a huge difference to me. -

^Skyrush has a few laterals that try to snap your back and no OTSR! -

^All their new rides seem to be getting it. I hope this is the end of OTSR for them -
You Might Be A Coaster Nerd If....

If, when you were a kid, you built (using normal Lego parts) rides like a Looping Starship. -

No, I don't seem to be up to date at all, especially given my age. The thing is when I have some money on my hands I'm incapable of spending it on something other than roller coaster trips! And I don't care that much either although if I were given an Iphone I would gladly accept it.

If you owned your own theme park

Well, let's see.... Coasters: - Intamin hydraulic launched coaster with a LONG layout and skyrush-like airtime (oh, and it would break the speed, height and length record too); - B&M invert: would like to use it to break the record for most G-forcers on a coaster (around 6.5Gs, if B&M allowed it); - B&M floorless with Kumba/dragon Khan like intensity: would break the record for most inversions (but with a wide variety, not 10 heartline rolls) as well as biggest loop; - B&M flyer: classic pretzel loop (looks and feels awesome) and then a layout with some constant speed and some twists; - B&M standup: yes, I DID say STANDUP as I would like to see what they could come up with now; - Intamin prefab woody: tallest in the world with loads of airtime; - RMC woody: first launched wooden coaster in the world with the first beyond vertical drop too, it would feature a close to the ground layout with some inversions (I would like to see a corkscrew) and airtime; - premier launched ride: it would have a normal launch, some elements which would lead into a vertical drop section. Then riders would be launched backwards into a few more elements and then in the end they would be put facing forwards to enter the station; - Gerstlauer eurofighter: steepest drop in the world and eurofighter-like twisty, funky intense layout; - Mack launched water coaster: no need to say more; - vekoma family mine train: with a backwards section. Other rides: - S&S triple tower: the tallest in the world. - Intamin drop tower attached to the hydraulic launched coaster with at least one side with 90 DEGREES tilting seats; - Huss giant frisbee: if possible even more giant; - Funtime star flyer: tallest in the world; - Some kid orientated rides; - Big S&S power swing; - Vekoma madhouse; - Mack log flume; - Maybe a train or something. Well I think the main rides are those. -
Well my grandparents on my mom's side have been living near Paris for quite a while and when I was 3 (1999) we went there and visited Disneyland and I rode my first coaster: big thunder mountain. From then on I started going to all these crappy fun fairs we have here in Portugal until eventually I got to try some bigger rides and then, yeah, this is what happened.
