DrachenfireOP Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Including defunct coasters, Drachen Fire was it no question. Big Bad Wolf and GASM aren't far behind it. Of the still-standing coasters, I'd say Magnum is the clear winner now, but I honestly like ALL Arrows, even the less popular ones.
Condor Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 Definitely still Magnum. It clung to my steel top 10 for 14 years until it was finally displaced in 2015. After that, my other favorite Arrows would have to be X2, Thunderation, Loch Ness Monster, and Canyon Blaster in that order.
Geauga Dog Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 Looping - Drachen Fire (RIP), KI Vortex Suspended - Big Bad Wolf Mine Train - Adventure Express Hyper - Magnum
TheCoasterKid211 Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 I can't decide between Loch Ness Monster or Tennessee Tornado. They're both really solid rides, but on top of that, I have never been on any other Arrow coaster
DarienLaker Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 I have some favorite Arrow coasters regardless of weather or not I've rode that particular coaster that is listed . Viper (Darien Lake) . Magnum XL-200 (Cedar Point) . Steel Phantom (Kennywood; even though Morgan remodeled the coaster 2001) . X2 (Six Flags Magic Mountain) . Drachen Fire (Busch Gardens Williamsburg) . Viper (Six Flags Magic Mountain) . Ninja (Six Flags Magic Mountain) . Iron Dragon (Cedar Point)
chickenbowl Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Hyper - Magnum XL-200, great airtime on the return home, very fun, classic (H.M.- Desperado) Looper - Tennesse Tornado, smoothest Arrow of all time, great forces, great pacing (H.M.- Loch Ness Monster) Mine Train - Thunderation, very large, very fast, great use of terrain! (H.M.- Road Runner Express (SFFT)) Suspended - KI's Bat, swings a lot in the front row, very fast! (H.M.- Ninja) (Eagle's Fortress and BBW looked insane!) Other (Speical) - MK's Space Mountain, smooth, fun, comfortable, and even a little airtime (H.M.- Matterhorn)
Halogen Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 I've never ridden it, but Eagle's Fortress might just be the best. My favourite is Magnum XL-200, with The Demon and Vortex at CW close behind.
LuminousAphid Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Corkscrew @ Silverwood is still really good, and out of the 2 Arrows I've ridden it's the better one Sorry, coaster n00b
AusCoasterFan Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 I've ridden just 8: Top 3: 1, X2; 2, Desperado; 3, Viper
thrillseeker4552 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 While a little painful, my favorite Arrow is definitely Magnum. I'm a very big fan of Viper as well.
BuffaloWingRider Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Actually forgot to mention The Bat at KI looks really fun I really want to get on it.
TB305 Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Loch Ness Monster in the back row is absolutely nuts on the first drop!
mike541x Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Loch Ness Monster in the back row is absolutely nuts on the first drop! QFT! One of my favorite drops on any ride.
RollerManic Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Loch Ness Monster in the back row is absolutely nuts on the first drop! I have not been on TN Tornado yet as it was closed during my visit, but I can say this: LNM may already get the edge between the two for the batballs crazy drop.
Angle O. Descent Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 1, X2 2. Magnum XL200 3. Tennessee Tornado 4. Loch Ness Monster 5. Vortex / The Bat
cwgator Posted October 28, 2015 Posted October 28, 2015 Tennessee Tornado (for comfort) Loch Ness Monster (for nostalgia) Big Bad Wolf (for gone but not forgotten)
Johnlloyd Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 My favorite Arrow coasters are Vortex at Canada's Wonderland because it's a suspended swinging coaster and Vortex at Kings Island because I really enjoyed it's layout and inversions. Other Arrow coasters I've been on are Dragon Fire at Canada's Wonderland, Adventure Express at Kings Island, and The Bat (AKA Flight Deck) at Kings Island. So, I've only been on a total of five Arrow Coasters so far, but I am a huge fan of them so I hope to ride more in the future.
ericthewanderer Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Favorite Arrow still standing:LNM at BGW Favorite Arrow torn down:Great Adv.'s GASM(BBW a close second). Hopefully any park that still has an Arrow keeps them running!
VF15 Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Magnum XL-200 is still my favorite coaster from Arrow for its extreme airtime, but Tennessee Tornado is a close second for being relatively forceful and butter smooth.
coloradocoasterguy Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 I'm going old school here, Space Mountain pre 2005 track replacement and the Matterhorn Bobsleds both at at Disneyland.
DefeatistNation Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 I think cedar point has the best collection. I found magnum and gemini to be incredible!
ytterbiumanalyst Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 This probably will change after I ride the lovely Ohio Arrows next week, but for many years it's been Orient Express. My favourite Arrow still running would be for the moment Thunderation. But I'm eyeing Magnum, Gemini, and Bat as worthy contenders to that title....
ytterbiumanalyst Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 And it is now Magnum. Sorry, Thunderation. You're still my favourite mine train.
