Totally agree with Great Bear, I feel Talon & Batman: The Dark Knight are too. Many say they forceless but I think both are just flat out fun, smooth coasters.

Only been on one 1. Wicked Cyclone Went on it last year and had to ride middle both times, it was awesome but seemed sluggish towards the end, but I knew riding it in the front probably would've changed my views on it... I went this past weekend, got the front, and holy hell this thing tore through the circuit, it was way more intense then it's opening season! I rode 3 times, even went row 5 my 2nd ride and it blew away my rides in the middle rows last season, it rocketed up my steel list, it's incredible. I'm hoping to get on Storm Chaser and/or Lightning Rod next year, fingers crossed!

Lochness Monster in '97, I was terrified but SO pumped after it, changed coasters for me forever!

Agreed with everything you've said! SFOG is definitely my favorite out of the SF's I've been to so far (SFGAdv, SFNE, SFA, SFGAm). The scenary, the coaster collection, all top notch. Love seeing TR's of it, makes me want to get right back down there, thanks for sharing!

Man I'm excited about this one, great fit for the park. It's ridiculous the hate it's gotten on their facebook page from the GP, they'll be eating those words next year when they ride this thing!

Delicious IPA, love everything Harpoon makes

Orphan by Silent Planet- if you like heavy music these guys have changed the game, lyrics are brilliant

Weekend of August 26-28 I'll be doing Lake Compounce & Six Flags New England, stoked to go back!

Great topic! Always fun to reminisce riding these GASM @ SFGAdv- So many memories on this one, re-ride heaven Batman & Robin: The Chiller @ SFGAdv- So much hype when it opened, it was so unique. Absolutely loved the Top Hat element on the Batman side, miss this ride dearly Rolling Thunder @ SFGAdv- Not one of the best but I grew up riding this Big Bag Wolf @ BGW- Everyone else said it, such a fantastic ride Laser @ DP- Such a punch for the small footprint, so much better than Stinger Hercules @ DP- That drop down to Lake Dorney was iconic, it was very rough towards the end but I still prefer that ride to Hydra now Wildcat @ CP- My mom doesn't like big coasters, but rode smaller ones with me, had many fun rides with her on this, would love to ride some more Deja Vu @ SFGAm- I was a young enthusiast when this opened, this ride was one of my favorites, it's a shame it had a rough life at SFGAm, good to see if still living at Silverwood Hypersonic XLC @ KD- Yep, nothing too great about this one but that launch was always awesome Big Dipper @ GL- Pains me to see it still standing but not running, such a classic coaster and ran so well

Timberhawk: Ride of Prey @ Enchanted Village

What an awesome looking ride, it's got a little bit of everything, thanks for sharing!

For some reason I can't get my picture to post but my very first homebrew! Made a simple IPA with Centennial Hops, came out pretty good for my first go! Gearing up to brew a Shandy next for my trip to the Outer Banks in July!
