Best Turnround and drop on a coaster

[verticalzero]

What's the best Fan Turn/Turnround and drop on a coaster where you get slammed into the side of the train and then get "Airtime" from coming out of your seat.

Jetline's second drop!!!

[spike]

Thunderhead at Dollywood Its not HUGE but what a rush on the drop and Its like everyturn is a fan turn. Cant go wrong with Thunderhead.

Georgia Cyclone's 2nd Turn Around and 3rd drop are really good to me.

Millie's 1st drop and all the overbanked turns were awesome when I rode it!!!!!

I love nitro's hammerhead turn.

^i ditto that!

I'm going to have to agree with the Geogia Cyclone comment, it isn't that great a coaster but that hills is INSANE.

How about wild ones/*giant coaster's* original turnaround before Six Flags killed it? That had air-lats-air--pretty nutty stuff. (anyone else see that as the inspiration for Hades's turnaround?)

 

 

 

*edit... mixed up my relocated coasters

Thunderbolt's 3rd Drop into the ravine (after the spaghetti bowl) was pretty good before they completely neutered it.

Ilike mf's drop!

 

and the turnartound on batman-so very intense!

I like SheiKra's 2nd drop. If you relax, and you are in the back seat, you come flying out of your seat. Or else it is because I am small!

[frozenflames]

The first drop after the turnaround on Rebel Yell in PKD (backwards) had me FLYING out of my seat.

I love the entry to the final helix on Lisebergsbanan. You got airtime and lateral G-forces at the same time, its fantastic!

American Eagle Backwards, last car. The first drop is totally insane yet totally awesome and airtime-filled.

 

The best turnaround? How about Superman: Ride of Steel's (SFNE) helix of death? It's pretty intense and I think it classifies a a turnaround.

[Reon]

it isnt a high speed turnaround, but vortex's first drop. I can never express how much sweet floater air you get on that thing enough! On a similar note, Cyclops' first and final drops both produce legendary airtime while going down a curving slope so I think they apply... Also, KC just because its packed with so much airtime (and usually going into/out of a turn when doing so)

One of the best is the drop, turnaround, and drop that starts off tenn. tornado!

Best turnaround and drop for me is Sheikra's loooooong, slooooow approach turnaround to the first drop and then the drop itself. The coaster ended up being my #2, second only to SFNE's Superman.

 

As far as the most intense turnarounds... a little surprising but there's a wild mouse in Seaside Heights NJ with an unusual non-banked rise-n-fall 180 degree turn which gives you lateral negatives. (weird sideways airtime)

[roeterich]

Defineteley EGF's first drop. It's just so amazing and it's a first drop and kind of a turnaround. Just the best part of any coaster I rode so far

[CoasterCrazy88]

I like many other coaster drops MUCH better than these, but for air time, probably Hi-Miler's second drop (it's bigger than the first) , or Scandia Screamer's first drop.

ACCK! The Hi-Miler pic link does not work. If you want to see Hi-Miler, go to

 

www.lonestarthrills.com then on the left, there is an area that says photo gallery. Click on,"Houston Rodeo". Once there, click on Album: 2004 Houston livestock and rodeo. Then click, Album: Hi-Miler.

The drop on the Grand National coming out of the first U turn, sit at the back and it's top notch! In the air and getting thrown to the left at the same time - yummy!!
