Is It Really Worth It?

[Adriel]

2 coasters, both acclaimed as tallest and fastest. On the grand opening, both have more than 5 hours line, which is very very long. But is it really worth it? Just because being the tallest and fastest doesn't mean the best. Remember, both are less than 2 minutes. Very very short ride. Stop, launch, up, airtime, down, brakes. That's all. Or maybe everyone just wanna try them?

Tell people youve got the tallest coaster ever and they all flock to it and for many people, if the coasters the biggest its bound to be the best (and of course its not true)

[Scaparri]

It doesn't have to be the biggest and best. It's an accomplishment to most people. To say you've been on the tallest and fastest coaster in the world is something to brag about for most people. And for a lot of them, going that fast or going that tall might be what thrills them the most, therefore, they get a huge rush from it and it becomes their favorite.

Being launched at that rate and speed is the entire rush for me. TTD and KK are worth it once, and beyond that I wouldn't wait more than a half hour or so. First time ride you must wait for the front seat, especially if you waited more than an hour for the ride already, you might as well wait for the best seat on the ride. I still enjoy TTD everytime I go to CP. I try to get my 1 ride on it. If you haven't been on it, you might think it's crazy to wait for something like this, but trust me, it is a rush your first ride.

I've waited 2+ hours for each coaster for my first time, mainly because of the breakdowns. I would never do that again, they are great rides but if I can't get to KK first thing in the morning I'm not going to be bummed out, there's at least 4 other better coasters at GADV, IMO.

Personally, I think its probably a great ride because for anybody afraid of high speeds or if they have accrophobia will have a HUGE rush.

Best ride ever=TTD

[gmoney422]

Remember, both are less than 2 minutes. Very very short ride. S

 

2 minutes...! Try less than 1 minute!

 

But, yes, I vote they are worth it! Gadv was an OK park, but I think KK put it on the map. And now with 'the bull', Gadv is a big time park!

 

The down side is the crowds.

Actually No. KingDa Ka is the tallest and fastest Currently. Besides for the launch and the spiral downwards. IT SUCKS! the layout is horrible and it's really to short to be called a coaster, more of a high speed thrill ride.

[CycloneMan]

I don't really think so. I rode Kingda Ka last night (for the 11th time) and it was allright. Now El Toro is what it's all about! 3 rides last night !

[matteocrepaldi]

I waited 2 hours and 15 minutes to ride TTD and it was totally worth it even it's not the best coaster I've been on. I got the very back seat cause it was the one with the shortest line.

I can't wait for next year to ride it again!!!

[thrillrideseeker]

Well I think that Kingda Ka is the best coaster on earth! It is so worth the wait! I dont know if it would have been as good if it wouldnt have rolled back I think the are well worth the wait!

[SpartanTS]

I wouldn't wait longer than 30 minutes for TTD personally. I rode it for the first time last year and it was one helluva rush, and worth the 1 hour wait.

 

I rode it again this year and waited an hour, and wasn't too happy about the wait. So with that being said, for the first time, it's worth the wait. Otherwise, no.

I'm one of those people that has a fear of heights (although it doesn't stop me from riding whatsoever), so Dragster is worth up to an hour wait for me because it's a huge rush. It's not my favorite coaster out there, but it is one of the most adrenaline pumpning rides I've ever been on. I always try to ride it at least twice while I'm at the Point.
