NewEnglandCoasters102.0 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I find it to be smoother then flashback, and it is about the same as ME but insteed of the head banging you get on ME you get thrown around on Cyclone Correct me if I'm wrong, but then is Cyclone better than ME?

alilstronger Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Mind Eraser - Six Flags America Most boomerangs that still use the old original over the shoulder restraints The Tobaggon (Carnival traveling coaster) -There is one set up as a permanent attraction at Ocean City MD at Trimpers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I used to not mind SFNE's Cyclone, but my ride this past Tuesday showed me how poorly the park has cared for it. Every moment of air time in the back was very painful and abrupt, and almost simultaneously I was treated to plenty of jackhammering. However, I still think Rebel Yell when it used to operate backwards is the roughest coaster I've been on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximo37 Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I'm going to have to go with Gwazi at Busch Gardens Tampa... When it opened 10 years ago, it was such a wonderfully fast and smooth ride... and now in such a relatively short time feels like a 2 minute car crash... I still have some love for it... but damn, are those square wheels on the bottom of those trains?!... The ride really should have received a major rehab for its 10th birthday...

MagicMountainMan Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I just rode Rolling Thunder a week ago and man that thing was killer. I'd say it was almost as bad as Psyclone, it would have been worse if there were more turns to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supertrooper Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Texas Giant or Rattler. Texas has rough wood. Roughest: Mean Streak Confirmed today. My rib cage was BASHED. In second car. Followed by Hurler, Beast and Son of Beast. And according to what he told me after getting off the Texas Giant yesterday, I bet Zach will change his answer.

CreditCrazy Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 New all-time roughest has to be T2...not only does it show how rough and miserable a coaster can be, it shows how smooth Kong is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twizzler Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 The Great Nor' Eater Wildwood New Jersey It felt like your head was being bobbled around till you would die. I came off with the worst head-ache. Although I rode it 2 more times after that. it's very fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenz Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Canobie Corkscrew-- I had ridden it before and found it rough, but when I rode it yesterday it seemed much worse than ever before. I was in pain the entire time and left with an awful headache. I also found wildcat at hershey really rough, even with the new trains. I was sitting in the back though, so maybe that made a difference. Oh, and the sidewinder at hershey. I don't think that one really even needs an explanation!

generaleclectic Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I am so depressed that the Georgia Cyclone (SFOG) has descended into the pile of lumber that it is today. I remember when I rode it in its 1st season in 1990. I was 13 years old. I thought it was so cool and so thrilling. Now, it's just like riding a wheelbarrow that has a square wheel down a downhill cobblestone street. I REALLY hope that they do something with it for SF's 50th Anniversary coming up in 2011.

coastercrzyjames Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I just rode Hurler at Carowinds this past week during the TPR Deep South trip and it was just brutally rough. It felt like all my internal organs were being bashed around for a couple of minutes. I couldn't wait for the ride to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devious Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 The one single coaster that is rough enough for me to hate it is Manhattan Express Everything seems smooth after you've ridden it a couple times and gotten that amazing neck chop in the helix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It felt like all my internal organs were being bashed around for a couple of minutes. I couldn't wait for the ride to end. Ummmm. Completely Agreed. I rode it over Spring Break In April and it killed me but the rest of my party...2 eenage girls and a mid-age father said it was great...But im the coaster enthusiast so I know whats rough and not. Also the Hurricane at the defunct Myrtle Beach Pavilion....ew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcalicoaster Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 ^As long as they enjoyed it, who cares what you, the coaster enthusiast, thinks? They are part of the general public and they liked it. Your liking to coasters shouldn't effect other peoples opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider82 Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I think by far it would have to be the Georgia Cyclone. Gave me a headache and I was screaming in pain during the whole ride, not fun at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nln00b Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Sidewinder at Hersheypark. Almost got head trauma, No joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMountainMan Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 ^I actually found that to be a better boomerang than the one at Knotts Berry Farm. The one at Knotts is just pure pain from start to finish. I have not ridden it since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy_Behemoth_Lady_Jess Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I guess it would have to be Grizzly at CGA. I am definately not surprized it was voted worst coaster of the year afew times in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Last year I rode Texas Giant in the back and wanted to climb out half way through the ride. Glad they are going to retrack it. It needs it badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It needs it badly. Really? It wasn't that bad when I rode it in March. I was riding in 2nd last row too! Grizzly is way worse, trust me. Glad to hear about the retracking though. Certainly gives me another reason to go back to SFOT next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
