CoasterExpert13 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Riding in the rain does hurt a little...but riding Phantom's Revenge is very fun in the rain....though the rain hurts when you exit the second drop because then the Phantom is at full it's speed (85mph.)

mike541x Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 bbw in the rain is cool until it starts thunder and lighting think what it would be like ride mf in a lighting storm Same thing happened to be when I went on BBW. But I enjoyed it. It was night time and it rained really hard when we were in the middle of the first hill. Then it started to thunder and lightning heading towards the helix and it was a blast. SROS at SFA was painful during a downpour, man those teenagers behind were cussing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLRC7 CP Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Xcelerator is awsome in the rain, you get sooo much airtime on the tophat I know its not a coaster, but perilous plunge is awsome in the rain, you get soaked like no other, this was before the seatbelt harnesses were added And boomerang at Knotts in the hail is the most painful thing i have ever experienced head banging and the hail hitting your face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo210 Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I loved Apollo's Chariot and Loch Ness Monster in the rain! I Rode Apollo's Chariot in the rain and it was Airtime heaven and was a speed demon! Loch Ness Monster was awsome because You got Airtime and Speed on the First drop, no roughness going up the second hill, The tunnel was a fun way to dry (A little), and the interlocking loops were so much fun! I want to go back some day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinMan06 Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Imo the best coaster to ride in the rain is... drum roll please! Space mountain! jk.

darklight_tr Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 I'm not really fond of riding coasters in the rain, but Raging Bull at SFGAm ws pretty interesting in the rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teus Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Sierra tonante at Mirabilandia became a bit better if rain. But it is always a rough coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Apollo's Chariot is awesome in the rain, even though you are pelted with bullet-like raindrops. Tornado at Adventureland really gets going in the rain. Big Bad Wolf would probably be awesome in the rain if it weren't for the idiotic little stream of water that insists upon splashing riders. Alpengeist is probably the worst coaster to ride in the rain, especially in the front seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Top Thrill Dragster. Front seat. Just when a rainstorm started. Enough said. (Actually, more should be said: It was June 4th, and it was my first front seat ride on TTD. Immediately after I exited, there was a huge (and extremely bright) rainbow just over the tophat. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantRevenge Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Batman The Ride, in Great Adventure. The rain collects above you in the trian (if you ride front seat)so when you stop in the station the water pours onto you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oni Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Had to resurrect this because I love coasters in the rain In no partiucular order: - Phantom's Revenge - Steel Force - Lighning Racer - The Nor'Easter [Vekoma SLC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edboxer Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Love riding coasters in the rain, and I've ridden lots in the rain. But the best two were: Dueling Dragons – sitting in the front row, when the train started up the lift hill, all the water that collected in the Dragon heads, dumped on the front row. Then during the ride you get hit by thousands of rain arrows. Rode 6 times. Boulderdash – it was rainy and windy so not only did the train fly but the wind was blowing the rain off the leaves. The train was flying, the rain was pouring, the branches blowing in the wind, I was were soaked, so I rode again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSLSM Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Viper is amazing in the rain since it feels so out of control, and the air time is so intense. The only better time to ride it is in the cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NitroRider Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I love rainy theme parks. SFA S:ROS is great in teh rain, as it improves the air and it goes slightly smoother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grinch1313 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I rode the Phoenix one night quite a few years ago. It was 60 degrees out (in the middle of August) and raining. And I was in the front seat. It was the most insane ride I've ever had on it. I don't think I was in my seat at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas2 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I had a awsome ride on Weerwolf in the rain. It was even more out-of-control then it normally is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
