What are your TOP TEN COASTERS


Recommended Posts

I don't really rank coasters (any more) but some of my favorites: SROS @ SFNE, Batman, Xcelerator, Phoenix, Boulder Dash, Great Bear, California Screamin, Alpengeist, Steel Force, and DL's Space Mountain.

THIS LIST GOES TO 11!

 

11. Flight of Fear (PKD) - terribly uncomfortable, but this is the only coaster that's ever completely disoriented me. Moments before pulling back into the load station, I honestly believed we were going in sideways. Maybe it helped that I spent the majority of the ride trying to keep my (too loose) glasses strap from escaping my skull.

 

Yeah, that thing was a very pleasant surprise, especially since I'd already ridden Joker's Jinx earlier in the week. It's way fun in the front, where you can just barely see the track...no, you can't...yes, you can....no, you...

 

Would've hated to ride it when those barely-big-enough-for-a-gnome cars had OTSRs, though.

Here is my top ten list, and I actually thought about it for a while, and this is pretty much exactly how they rank for me:

 

1) Sheikra (The best drop sensation in the world, very scary. Plus, tons of hangtime on the immelmann)

2) Montu (Great combination of inversions. Most vertical loops on inverts are too small to be fun ...too much +G, not enough hangtime)

3) Kraken (The best Zero G Roll ever, and a great first drop)

4) The Incredible Hulk Coaster (Launching into a zero G roll is one of the most ingenious ideas ever)

5) Rock 'n' Roller Coaster (My first inverting coaster, and has the best corkscrew of any coaster I've been on.. B&M corkscrews are too tight and the sensation is unpleasant, not fun)

6) Dueling Dragons Fire (Great airtime hill, and two immelmanns, which I love)

7) Kumba (The best vertical loop of any coaster I have been on... tons of hangtime)

8) Revenge of the Mummy (More airtime than I could ever dream of, not to mention the special effects)

9) Dueling Dragons Ice (Zero g roll, and a cool turnaround after the first drop)

10) Space Mountain in Florida(Nothing beats this classic ride. While I hate the rough bounciness of a woodie, I absoluterly love it when a bumpy steel coaster comes along. The bumps actually make this ride kinda fun)

 

Almost made it on the list:

-Dania Beach Hurricane

-Expedition Everest

 

 

Notice a pattern?

They are all steel.

I am not a big fan of woodies.

I had Dania Beach Hurricane on there for a while, but when I rode the Mummy, it surpassed it, because it had better airtime.

 

 

I just made this thread.....it got locked because it was a duplicate... :cry:
