bubala Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 We are spending a couple of days in the Seaside Heights, NJ area, and I decided to get a few rides on some of the coasters at Casino Pier and Funtown Pier. As I was going up the lift hill on Star Jet, I remembered why I liked this particular coaster so much. The view of the ocean as you are going up the lift and as you go around the first turn at the top of the lift is INCREDIBLE! Especially if you are sitting in the outside seat. All you can see beside you is the ocean. It seems as if the coaster is just floating above the water. It got me to wondering about what everyone else might think are the best views from a coaster lift hill? So, what is your favorite lift hill view? Mine is Star Jet at Casino Pier in Seaside Heights, NJ! -Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xceleratorfan96 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Could I say Supreme Scream at Knott's? If you sit on the right ride, you can see for miles and on clear days even see the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braztaz Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Definitely Millennium Force. You've got the lake to your left, and the whole park to your right. It's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfc Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 You get a nice view of the James River and Surrey County from the top of Griffon; that is, until you make that right turn and you're looking at the brewery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STR8FXXXINEDGE Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Without thinking too hard about it, I'd say Millennium Force (Cedar Point) or Ravine Flyer II (Waldameer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSchwitek Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Goliath; La Ronde. Not my favorite park, but I love how it's so close to the city. (and the coaster is just as good as it's taller counterparts). Millennium Force takes an easy second place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molemaster43 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Without thinking too hard about it, I'd say Millennium Force (Cedar Point) or Ravine Flyer II (Waldameer). I also enjoyed Ravine Flyer II's view. It gave a nice, enjoyable view of Lake Erie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takeariisk Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Either Millennium or Magnum. I worked Magnum one summer. It was awesome starting every day with that view from the top of the lift. However, my favorite is Ravine Flyer II. The water looks so blue from the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSchwitek Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Oh; and the Coney Island Cyclone. I totally dig the city views from coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odene497 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Ravine Flyer II popped right into my head. On a windy day, being up on top overlooking the peninsula that heads off into Lake Erie, it's a great view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDCOASTERFAN Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Definitely Millennium Force. You've got the lake to your left, and the whole park to your right. It's great. I would say I305 if it weren't so darn fast going up LOL!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
