Sir Coaster Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Thunderhawk at Dorney Park. That ride is INCREDIBLY painful. Everything about it is awful. From the hornet-invested que to the ride that THROWS YOU across your seat, it's not worth keeping. There's something about wooden roller coasters at Dorney Park that just isn't right... Honestly, I'd light a match, burn down Thunderhawk, then stomp on its ashes... If the ride wasn't so vintage...I hate Thunderhawk, but the simple giddy feeling you get when clanking up that iconic lift is incredible. I want to tear down Thunderhawk, but it seems to much of nostalgia for me to feel that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liftsifter Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Superman: Ultimate Flight at SFGAm. This is such a horrible waste of prime expansion area. The ride is slow, boring, and anything past the pretzel is boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

utahTPR Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I'd go with Mean Streak, but you can add me to the list of back injuries for GhostRider. I've met a lot more people who like GhostRider than who like Mean Streak and since there are fewer rides at Knott's, it seems a bit more important. It also attracts a lot of people into its line, making the line for Silver Bullet and Xcelerator shorter. I hope whoever said Silver Bullet wasn't serious. I love that ride. Also curious whether all the people who said S:TE would still stick with that choice since its redesign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperShawn Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Hurler at Carowinds. Hands down the most painful ride I've ever had on a coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.A.B Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Well, I want to light an match and burn down Gemini at CP. Also that person that said "Am I the only one who loves SoB" or something. You not alone I also love SoB, it is my top number 1 of all woodies, and Mean Streak come 2nd for me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatle11 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Considering my experience on Predator, it easily gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviadigit Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Paris' Space Mountain. That thing is just unacceptably painful.(although new trains would make a HUGE difference) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big-M Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Wildcat @ Lake Compounce. The train slowly jackhammers through the course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XII Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Dragon @ Adventureland. You get the living sh*t beaten out of you before you even reach the lifthill. And the rest of the ride is just one horrid nightmare of pain. I'd destroy this ride with my bare hands if I could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougMJr Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Predator gets my vote. Although the trains from Voyage helped, predator is still a chiropractic's dream. I swear every time I ride that thing I want to get re-adjusted. In fact, Darien Lake could make some serious cash if they replaced the slushie station with a spinal adjustment booth. Anyway, some topper track or a match could seriously help that ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcsteve Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Dragon @ Adventureland. You get the living sh*t beaten out of you before you even reach the lifthill. And the rest of the ride is just one horrid nightmare of pain. I'm from Lincoln, Nebraska, and we never went to Adventureland when I was a kid. The first time was a few years ago with a friend. I'm in Kansas City now. I agree, Dragon is a less than pleasant ride experience. To change subjects briefly, on one of our rides on Tornado, I came so far out of my seat I was grasping at clouds. I can't imagine that coaster before seat belts. I'd probably go with Mean Streak as others have. My first time there was the mid 90s, but I don't remember my ride on it, and it was just a few years old then. I rode it once the last time I was there, just because I like to hit all the coasters. It would be nice if it could be fixed. Still, they could build a new coaster inside it. There appears to be enough room. And I can't believe Elissa suggested Prowler. Robb/Elissa, were you guys there for media day the Friday before the park opened for the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooterdoug Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 I am torn between two coasters. The first would be The Roller Coaster/Manhattan Express at the New York, New York hotel in Las Vegas. That ride is so horrible, I wouldn't even want to see it replaced with something else. Empty space would be better than that horrid POS. I'll probably catch some flack for this, but Revolution at SFMM. I know that it's very iconic, and it used to be pretty cool. However, the addition of OTSR's made for some horrible head banging. Furthermore, I can't think of a ride with more trims than that. That terrain could be used for something far cooler. I'm thinking a quality GG woodie or a sweet Intamin terrain coaster. Aside from looking pretty, I don't feel that Revolution is useful for anything beyond viewing at a safe distance. I skip it every time I go. -Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal1br3tto Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 I love Dragon at Adventureland! It's my #30 steel! I don't know what coaster I would taer down. Some boring coasters are charming and classic, which I appreciate. So probably a supposedly high-thrill coaster that, well, actually isn't, like a Boomerang, SLC, or Arrow multi-looper.

Iowa Beaver Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Dragon @ Adventureland. You get the living sh*t beaten out of you before you even reach the lifthill. And the rest of the ride is just one horrid nightmare of pain. I agree with everything here. Seriously, I mean, why does it have to have the freaking OTSRs? I would be willing to ride it again if they got new trains, but otherwise it's the only coaster I refuse to ride and wish to be destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imawesome1124 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Hurler at KD. The only coaster I have ever disliked enough to completely avoid whenever I go to the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpengeistfan1 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Probably gonna a lot of disagreement with this, but Roller Soaker at Hershey. There's always a long wait, it's a bad idea, and it doesn't add any atmosphere to the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeps the lines to the better rides shorter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazywolf88 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) I think I'd tear down Great American Scream Machine at SFGAdv. It's not necessarily an awful ride; it just seems to take up a huge amount of space while doing almost nothing for the park. Even just another path back to Kingda Ka would be nicer than GASM IMO. Wish granted LOL Edited March 13, 2011 by crazywolf88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfoot12 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 ^There were a lot of votes for Superman at SFMM and that one's getting re-profiled. Unfortunately my choice for destruction, Hurler at KD, got plenty of hate, yet, it still stands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalCoasters Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Psyclone at SFMM, oh wait. In all seriousness, I'd tear down, or heavily change Collosus. That thing had jackhammering worse than Ghostrider when I rode it, and it took my neck about a week to recover from riding that piece of crap. I rode it twice, and the second time it was even worse!
