RollercoasterTigger Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I think anyone in the UK will agree when i say that the Pepsi Max Big One at Blackpool Pleasure Beach has to be the worst coaster ever!!!! http://www.rcdb.com/ig775.htm?picture=2 Still it holds the crowds away from the Grand national, so can't complian about it too much!!!

ebl Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Flashback at SFMM for absolute sure. What a pile of scrap metal! Would they please recycle it and put the money they get for it to some good use? Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Movieguy Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I second the Raging Wolf Bobs vote. I've talked about it before, but that coaster is absolute torture to go through. A few years ago I'd have said Mantis at CP, because my calves would hurt every time I went on it. Then I discovered that was instinctively trying to stand on my toes because of some irrational fear that the bicycle seat thing on that coaster would damage a certain part of my anatomy. So the last time I rode it, I fought temptation, kept my feet flat on the ground, and everything went smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yero Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 I hate Loup Garou/Werewolf in Walibi Belgium, it's boring, I tought the whole time that the cars would fall apart.. No airtime, a bad first Drop, I don't like the Lay-Out, but that's all my opinion ofcourse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirectorSpence Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Well, I had never ridden a Togo before and I felt my time had come, and at $12.50 I really paid the price of pain on the worst coaster I've been on - The Manhattan Express. Ouch: not only in my head but in my wallet. Second worst coaster is Flashback at SFMM where I attempted to stick my neck out (for nobody) from the seats in order to reduce the headbanging. Oh, and flame me if necessary, but I have yet to encounter what I'd consider to be an "enjoyable" wooden coaster. I'm still looking, though. I found that Lightning Racer at HP is immensely enjoyable. The lack of a line for my three-in-a-row rides might have been a factor as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyscraper Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Demon at paramount Great America.. My god it hurts so much !

AllisonY2K Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I feel some loyalty to Flashback since that was one of my first coasters back when it was Z-Force at Great America waaaay back in the day. *sniff* I remember opening day. *sniff* ok, I'm better now. looking at the picture of it on this thread all I can think is, 'damn they let that ride go downhill'. Gwazi? a bad ride? blasphemy. I love a wooden coaster that jerks you around. The Beast used to do that very well. My vote for a bad coaster would be Anaconda at PKD. I think the only PR it had going for it was that it went "under water". Oooooooo. *snore* or Ninja at SFOG. that was a big let down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityOfAngelsGrl Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 (edited) I personally don't have a worst coaster, but my boyfriend (at the time) got hurt on Edited May 21, 2016 by CityOfAngelsGrl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhishyBrewer Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Hey Phishy - you got a headache with the lap bars?? Or have you not ridden it since the retrofit? -kip- The last time I rode it was the year they opened it. Was like 1999 or so? If they changed some stuff, thank God! I'm serious, I had a headache the entire day I was there. Really ruined my day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phazan Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 the worst coaster in the world is zonga at sfmw. i dont know what it is about those loops but they are killer. your head just bashes over and over again and you cant control it. i put my hands one the side of the restraints to try to cushon the impact. even if it was smooth it still would suck. it goes so slow and it doesnt ever pull any gs or anything. conclusion..... ZONGA SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shepp Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 ^ As recently as late last summer, Zonga ran about half the days I was there, at least part of the day. Most everyone hated it, and word is it's now SBNO. I'll take the word of those who claim that SFMW ruined a great coaster. But judging solely from its present incarnation, it might be a fun ride if they replaced the layout, the track, and the trains. Or maybe not.

Shockwave Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 Goudurix at Parc Asterix. (Vekoma Custom Looper) Went on this on Saturday just gone. It was very very rough. It looks like a fantastic ride, but those loops left me brutally battered & badly brusied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Jack Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 In my opinion, any coaster built by TOGO is worthy of getting "The Worst" title. Very uncomfortable trains, very sloppy steelwork, and horrible transitions. Experience of Manhattan Express and the Viper could prove this very true to almost anyone, as it has for me. The Viper never even had banked turns, zero degree angle turns made at 40 mph. Sheer genius, like the two guys advertising beer: Guy 1: "Let's make the Americans pay for the bombs they dropped on us back in the day." Guy 2: "Brilliant!" Guy 1: "We could build the Viper!" Guy 2: "BRILLIANT!!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking86 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 I think its funny that no matter how rough and painful a coaster is, you'll see people riding with their arms up. Manhattan Express, Viper, TOGO Standups, etc..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ymmas Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 My vote for worst coaster ever goes to " Goudoerix " @ Park Asterix in France. It is just so painfull!! Also are a lot of the elements wrong. But what can is say, its a Vekoma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kroger8 Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 Idk why everyone always says Ninja at SFoG is rough, it was not rough at all when I rode it last year, in fact I really like it, I think its fun... ANYWAY the worst coaster I have been on (judging just by the ones I have been on which isnt many) and its not bad at all, but the Hurricane at the Myrtle Beach Pavilion, the only thing is that the Helices don't provide many forces, but its still a good ride. 100th post!

SpartanTS Posted June 18, 2005 Share Posted June 18, 2005 The Hurler at Paramount's Carowinds. I rode it about 2 weeks ago, and it has to be at it's worst point in its 11 year history right now. Right was rough, rattled my head really bad and I had a headache for the rest of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
