ytterbiumanalyst Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Why does Nemesis keep coming up. Yeah, it is a good ride but it certainly does not beat the RMC collection or Mack, and the ride is simply too short to be good enough. Also the harness' are different to the usual B&M harnesses, which means that when head banging occurs (which it does) it is more painful than it should be. Honestly, the harnesses are ROCK solid, no sponginess at all! That's the first time I've ever heard anyone complain about Nemesis. It's been consistently ranked higher than 12 every single year on the Mitch poll and most people prefer the old school restraints anyways. It's on my personal wish list too and for good reason. Nah, I prefer those type of restraints to the modern best ones like Swarm, but these ones are coated in a solid white paint. Rankings are not the most important thing, Helix is an awesome coaster and has not been up there. Don't get me wrong it is a great ride, but not a bucket list ride. Nemesis is on my personal bucket list because of awesome theming, being an incredible park, and the fact that if I'm riding it, then I'm in England! Making a trip to the British Isles is a bucket list item for me in itself. I'm sure if you live there, it's not as exciting. For me, England and Ireland are the home of my ancestors. America is such a collection of everywhere and everyone, which is awesome in itself. But I want to see where I come from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I knew of Nemesis for awhile, before I actually rode it on a TPR Tour back in 2006. Totally blew me away, from the queue snaking underneath the track, to that loop right beside the station, with the blood red water underneath. I loved it and went on it again and again and again.

coasterer Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 While there are a number of rides in addition to this that would be swell to get to at one point or another, these are the top remaining major coasters I would reeeeally really like to ride in my lifetime, the ones I would consider going substantially out of my way for. They are all outside of the US. I know some of them are weird choices, but these hold the most appeal for me.

michaellynn4 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) What I'm working toward in the next couple years:Sky Rush Phantom's Revenge El Toro If you're ever out here don't hesitate to hit any of us up! I don't really focus my trips and bucket list around specific coasters, but rather areas of the country. I really want to do a Texas trip at some point (SFOT, SFFT, SWSA, etc), and my California trip to visit my sister in San Francisco will knock out CGA, SFDK, and SCBB. Rikki and I are thinking about going to the Netherlands for our honeymoon, so if that happens, Walibi Holland and Efteling are definitely on the agenda.
