Best coaster ride when raining

[deathbydinn]

Viper at SFGAM is heavenly in the rain.

Voyage ... it was during a monsoon lol at night ... Truly an epic ride that i will never forget.

[Josh Linn]

My only ride on Millennium Force happened while it was raining, and it was unbelievable.

[A-kid]

Maverick and Nemesis.

 

It's when Nemesis is at its best. Its all about the First drop, Flat Spin, Helix and Pumpy 0G. It's just Insane.

 

And Maverick...well thats just nuts. I remember it feeling much quicker and smoother all over. Mind you it was in the dark, so it could of just been my vision. Ether way, it was epic.

I rode a Vekoma Corkscrew (pile of crap) just after a hailstorm, and it was suddenly damn enjoyable! It really gave me the *oh jesus im going splat into the floor in a minute* feeling, it was brilliant! Well... for a Vekoma Corkscrew anyway...

I remember when Cedar Point ran the rides in the rain! I rode Millennium Force 3 time in the rain back in '04. It was bad@ss

[Fire2box]

I only been on Mudeusa when it rained (well sprinkled) didn't change the ride a whole lot.. that was my first day at SFDK (discovery kingdom) for my 2010 season.

I rode PMBO in the rain which was pure unadulterated torture however I was lucky enough to ride Oblivion at AT in a blizzard two years ago, quite possibly the most amazing experience ever!

 

Diving into the hole the same speed as the thick snow was awesome but comingback out of the tunnel and having that snow smash into your face was A-to-the-Mazin!

[DOCTOR DOOM!!!]

I rode Beast at KI during a full fledged thunderstorm one night in October last year. Lots of lightning bolts streaking across the sky as the only light and the increased speed from the rain = EPIC, EPIC, SUPER EPIC!!!

When it is pouring, for me the best coasters to ride are wooden coasters. Wooden roller coasters just get so much wilder (in a good way) in the rain. Last year, I marathoned The Great Escape's Comet for 2 hours in a complete downpour! Since there were no lines, the ops just let everyone stay on.

Two words, BOULDER DASH.

 

I can't believe it hasn't been mentioned more in this thread.

My only ride on Millennium Force happened while it was raining, and it was unbelievable.

Did it feel like Bullets penetrating through your clothes?

[Sir Coaster]

I've ridden Raptor at Cedar Point in the rain...

 

 

INSANE!!! COMPLETELY INSANE!

 

 

Isn't it strange how most of the coasters mentioned here are either B&M inverted coasters or Woodies?

MAVERICK = UNBELIEVABLE IN THE RAIN!

The Boss, SFSL. NOT Mr. Freeze. That hurt.

MAVERICK = UNBELIEVABLE IN THE RAIN!

When it's running .

 

 

Beast is absolutely EPIC after it rains. Sometimes there is even the occasional fog lifting through the trees .

[Jcoaster]

Marathoning Apollo's Chariot in the rain is pretty F***** epic, turned that coaster into me favorite ride....Ever. I also enjoyed S:ROS at SFA in the rain...And I didn't think that third hill could get any sicker.

[BaMiTsPaT]

Boulder Dash in any extraordinary weather condition is absolutely insane

[Sasquatch]

The Ultimate... a totally life-changing amount of pain but GOOD LORD the adrenaline rush is beyond words!

[imawesome1124]

Grizzly was a lot of fun in the rain during ERT at East Coast Bash. I haven't seen it run that great in a long time, it was fast, smooth, and had quite a bit of airtime.

[donkeyman18]

El toro was awesome the water was under the seats and would shoot out at every hill it was so fun!

[dippindotsguy8]

Both Renegade and Excalibur at VF are quite fun in the rain if it's at night. They are both somewhat outside the main park area so there isn't much light at all. The best ride I've ever had on Excalibur was at a ride night, pitch black, and pouring. Wet trims=Crazy airtime on the ejector hill!

 

Zeus at night in the rain was also pretty crazy, but the back car felt like it had no upstop wheels, so that kinda took away from the experience.

[tiger01]

Pepesi Max Big One. Pretty epic going down the first drop with rain.

 

Nemesis, in the morning, in the rain

[Hugecoltsfan]

Intimidator 305 is amazing in the rain. Although it does feel like a ton of needles are hitting you.

[doublestufforeo]

The Incredible Hulk, going from that tunnel into the rain is such an awesome feeling.

[TJ27]

Apocalypse is really cool in the rain. The weather really adds to the experience.
