Rollerholden Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 I always get very anxious right before any launch coaster launches. SFMM Goliath's death helix is pretty intense, and so is pretty much the whole ride on X.
Calaway Park Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 Galaxyland's Mindbenders third loop. People black out on it. I was lucky enough not too. The helix at th end is really intense too.
brianwolters Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 The helix on Titan, did me no good EVER! Ditto...I can't even ride Titan anymore...interesting in that a helix is about the only thing I can't handle on a coaster.
coasterdude5 Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 1. Any pretzel loop. 2. Batman's loop and zero-g roll 3. Any SLC!
yankees15 Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 Superman's pretzel loop is very intense and so is Kingda ka's and Storm Runner's launch.
Golfie Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 First time on the drop of Raging Bull - It's so crazy but I love it now. The launch and hold on V2 (at SFGAm)
mightypotato Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 For me, its Top Thrill Dragster's launch. It caught me completely by surprise just how intense it was.
odene497 Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 Going down/bottom of Millenium Force's first drop, and before Top Thrill Dragsters launch, it's way scarier waiting for it than actually doing it
downunder Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 Out of what I have ridden - Dragster's launch and first drop, which is why I rate it so highly, doesn't do much but it is a blast. Magnum's bunny hop run in the ejector seat (1.3) is brutal. The second camel back on SFNE ride of steel after the first turn around, especially around the front. SFMM Goliath's helix before they tamed it down, I even know a very prominent Cedar Point fanboy who passed out on that.
socalMAN123 Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 1. Tatsu's pretzel loop 2. Xcelerator's launch 3. Goliath's helix ---Brent
gunslinger Posted July 28, 2006 Posted July 28, 2006 No doubt, Tatsu's pretzel loop. I haven't been able to inflate my lungs to full capacity since my abdomen was shattered and irreversibly compressed on Media Day. Huzzah, Tatsu!
Nitro1118 Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Hmmmm..... 1) El Toro's crossover RT. INSANE airtime. 2) Alpengeist cobra roll. 3) KK/TTD launch.
okinawaboy11 Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 I'd say all of Storm Runner is pretty intense. JJ/FoF launch is pretty intense. Uhh. TTD launch, yeah. Hypersonic, don't get me started
Oni Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 I would have to say launches in general. But specifically, - Last seat of Laser at Dorney = near-blackout - Phantom's Revenge after the second drop - The vertical loop on DD at IOA, but it's only good from the front seat
pierced_b0i Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Steel Phantoms loop..I thought my neck was going to snap!! I miss it though..
jamesdillaman Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Well.... -Tatsu's Pretzel Loop Definitely -The Beast's Helix before the magnetic trims were added -Phantom's Revenge the bunny hops into the trims -Batman: The Ride Everything, wow, crazy! -(Don't Laugh) I think Face/Off at PKI is pretty intense -James Dillaman
dwerling Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 1.) TTD Launch-I had snot forced out of my nose on the way up the hill 2.) SUF Pretzel Loop- Lost my wallet on this forceful element 3.) Millennium Force's first drop- Amazing...when is it going to end?
gtaylor Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 +G's: Base of the pretzel Loop(S:UF), Hypersonic Launch -G's: Most of the hills on El Toro(that RT crossover, WOW!) And that tunnel on Grizzly at PKD doesn't really top any list, just a great moment.
coasterlover420 Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Intense....Hmmmm..... 1. Goliath Helix 2. Tatsu - backseat - pretzel loop (S:UF = not even close to this!) 3. Waiting for Dragster to launch on my first run (intense suspense!) 4. Dragster launch
ParkTrips Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 Goliath's (MM) helix Pull-out for the 2nd loop on Laser (Doppel Looping) Hypersonic's launch (those voting for TTD or Ka need to get on a TA2K coaster!) And last, but not least, my baby's third loop. And don't tell me its not a loop.
einsteinonthebeach Posted July 29, 2006 Posted July 29, 2006 I would have to go with "Cyclops" in the backseat. The ejector air on the final drop is absolutley stunning! And with only a seatbelt and single lapbar for the two riders, there is plenty of space for airtime. MLB
EuroTre Posted July 29, 2006 Author Posted July 29, 2006 I haven't been on Tatsu yet and I think it sounds awesome! But is it any good, and exactly HOW intense is the pretzel loop? P.S. I can't sit in the backseat YET on Cyclops (not yet eighteen) but the second-to-last-car's airtime shocked me! It ROCKED!
