They both have S&S drop towers. SFNE and Adlabs Imagica.

I don't know about that. I think Mantis with floorless trains would be a lot of fun but I'm sure Raptor would still be lightyears ahead of it. Personally I love Gatekeeper despite the amazing amount of hate that it gets so I have a hard time believing Floorless Mantis would be better than that either though many people would probably disagree with me on that. I would take take Mantis in its current state over gatekeeper! Thats just me. GK is super smooth and a very pretty ride. Just doesn't do it for me. Raptor hands down is the best B&M at CP Srs? I'd rank GateKeeper above Raptor, and I'd put it just behind Millenium Force & forth overall at the park. Really? Raptor is my favourite ride at the park (I did not get to ride Maverick) with TTD coming second and MF third. Then gatekeeper. It's not bad, it's rather fun, actually. But not very intense and that ending is terrible. However, I think the worst thing for me was how it seemed to rattle if you sat in the outside seats (which I always do) from the 3rd or 4th row back. The restraints do not help either. Yeah, but that's my opinion. I'm starting to feel a vertical rattle on GateKeeper. A year old, and it's getting a rattle?

OzIris-Parc Astérix

GateKeeeper is pretty underrated in my opinion. I really don't know why I've ridden Mantis so much, but I don't say it's my favorite. Any final guesses for 2015?

Gemini is accualy pretty smooth, but I've sat towards the front. I don't ever try to ride a coaster towards the back.

Maverick-Cedar Point

Don't worry, B&M would kill themselves if they went with these.

I wouldn't count on it. I would see some work going on after Closing Day.

You may also need a change of underwear too! Looks like construction is moving along nicely, I can't wait for more updates. I'll need a change of underwear when the Immelman goes vertical. I just can't believe how fast HW is putting up this baby! EDIT: Another track piece? LSM a goin' up!

if I upset any of you, that's okay. This is just my opinion.

Also notice how the trains are today. Before After

Ah! The 2000th page of this thread! I'm pretty sure you will all agree with my mini list. For this and next year. Best Cedar Point B&Ms 2014 1. Raptor 2. GateKeeper 3. Mantis Best Cedar Point B&Ms 2015 1. Unknown Floorless Coaster. 2. Raptor 3. GateKeeper The 2015 list is official IF Mantis gets flooless trains and a retheme!

You just made me do this. And I'll be cleaning up my keyboard!

Backlot Stunt Coaster-KI/KD/CW

Here's mine. Vortex @ KI: Fun ride, but super rough! Mean Streak: Awful, I hate it! That renovation never helped the experience! Blue Streak: As long as you ride it in the front, your fine. The back seat sucks! Hoosier Hurricane: Baby SOB, but very photogenic! Maverick: This is because I'm short.

I'm going on Apple Festival weekend (a yearly festival for Kendallville, IN) and I am gonna' try to get my final laps in. Hopefully there won't be such a huge crowd for Mantis. If the park is crowded, then I'm getting Fast Lane. So speaking of Fast Lane, what waiting times can you tolerate?

Granted, by closer, you mean 60,000 miles away in Canada! I wish B&Ms that were built from 2002-2013 were as good as Intamins.

We've all said it before, Amusement Today is a crap poll.

Same thing here, Nitro has one of the worst color scheme's I've ever seen. And Mantis is just one step closer to having Nitro's colors. But every B&M is photogenic in my opinion.

Granted, but they are TOGOs. I wish Millennium Force was intense as I305.

Magnum XL-200. 1 month ago. When was the last time you had bad service at McDonald's?

I have more interests than Parks, Coasters, and DONKEYS! and that is tornado sirens. I recorded a video yesterday of a siren in the city of where I live. It was manufactured by Alerting Communications of America (ACA) and is called a Banshee. (Not to be confused with the Invert @ KI)
