bluemen Posted August 14, 2005 Posted August 14, 2005 The drop (forwards) sitting in the back of anyboomerang anywhere is fantastic in my book. It really gets my stomach. I can only imagine what the Deja Vu clones would feel like (although I like being able to look out over the park as you are lifted backwards). I love ALL straight arrow drops, but especially older ones-- Gemini, CP Corkscrew, BGT's Python, PCW's Dragon Fyre, etc etc. They just do more for me than Intamin Hyper drops or pretty much anything else I've been on.
Angry_Gumball Posted August 14, 2005 Posted August 14, 2005 Out of everyone I know in person, they hate Zonga except my younger brother, one of my friends and I. Everyone else says that if they want to get banged up, they'll get in a fight with someone.
Coasterlicious Posted August 14, 2005 Posted August 14, 2005 The first Drop on the Boomerangs are classic.. it always gives me a tingle feeling.. And some people seem to think that Wicked Twister is boring but IMO its a great ride.. very smooth and fast ... and looking down from the backseat is amazing.. and the fact its on the beach adds a unique setting..
SLUSHIE Posted August 14, 2005 Posted August 14, 2005 The first Drop on the Boomerangs are classic.. it always gives me a tingle feeling.. Those are the only coasters where the ride looks a lot taller when your up there.
Coasterlicious Posted August 14, 2005 Posted August 14, 2005 The first Drop on the Boomerangs are classic.. it always gives me a tingle feeling.. Those are the only coasters where the ride looks a lot taller when your up there. Ya its like " crap this is tall" when your on it. . and they look so small compared to many other coasters
kennywood!007 Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 i like Hurler at Paramount Parks and the Steel Phantom at my closet park Kennywood in West Mifflin PA......... Also I wish the old phantom was still here!!!!!!!
ncf Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 Desperado and Viper at SFMM are some of my favorites but many people say they're painful :? They're a little bumpy, but that just makes the ride more fun (as long as it doesn't hurt...)
AllisonY2K Posted August 16, 2005 Posted August 16, 2005 Gwazi at BGT, and the once-infamous Z-Force/Flashback.
coasterguy618 Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Hydra at Dorney Park. Alot of people say the don't like it. It is personally one of my favorite coasters.
rollermonkey Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Flashback at 6FMM. It has been a long time, and every single time I rode I ended up front row, right side, but I always thought it was fun. My ex started to dislike it eventually, but she was always to my left. Ride position matters on so many other rides, maybe that's all there is to what is/was wrong with this one. Chris B
TheGreatOne Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 I never hear much for Georgia Scorcher, and I love that ride. I also like some Arrow loopers (Demon at GAm, Anaconda, Double Loop) that most people don't care for.
KrakenKing Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Actually, I enjoyed the SLC and Boomerang coasters I have been on... Many people say they're rough, but I went on Hangman and Boomerang at "Wild Adventures" and they were smooth as glass. I'd have to put Hangman right up there with B:TR at SFoG in terms of intensity, but I found B:TR a bit more head-bangish (Though, I'm only counting two times I can remember where my head hit the restraint)
Wishmaster Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 Eurosat! A lot of people say it's rough but I just love it. Stuntfall (Déjà Vu clone) is also a great ride.
CoasterCrazy Posted August 25, 2005 Posted August 25, 2005 ^I missed the Viper at SFGAd by one year! I have always wanted to ride that type of coaster.
nitro17 Posted August 26, 2005 Posted August 26, 2005 gasm at sfgadv.. imo its better than medusa. More forceful. I get no headbanging no matter where i sit.. so its awesome. also i foudn me at sfa quite fun.. if you keep your head and neck out (no biggie)
Jumboshrmp Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 - Gwazi. I really don't think this ride is as rough as people say it is. In fact, I find it very smooth for a wooden coaster. You may have just scared me away from wooden coasters for the rest of my life. You are telling me that there are a lot of wooden coasters that are actually bumpier? Ughhhhhh..
knottslover77 Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Desperado at buffilo bills,I thought it was smooth(most people don't).The airtime on the first drop was great,And in the end it became my number 2 coaster overall. --Jay(100th post)Salahi
MSLSM Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Boomerang at SFEG, this is actually the smoothest sit down looper I've been on, and it was almost the smoothest looping coaster I've been on.
Rollerholden Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Vekoma SLCs and Boomerangs! I don't get what's the problem with them. I have 3 Boomerang credits and 2 SLC credits, and I really like them!
SixFlagsTexas Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Vekoma SLCs and Boomerangs!I don't get what's the problem with them. I have 3 Boomerang credits and 2 SLC credits, and I really like them! Ditto. I've been on one SLC and 2 Boomerangs and I've enjoyed them all. I thought Boomerang at SFFT was very smooth, and I liked it very much. Flashback (SFOT) and Serial Thriller (SFAW) do have their bad moments though, but they're still enjoyable and fun.
ECZenith Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 Morey's Piers Great Nor' Easter, awesome SLC. it's all about location.
