coneyislandchris Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I think the woman on Texas Giant a few years back would argue that ride has the best air time! ( Too Soon! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DILinator Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 The coaster that's given me the most intense individual moments of ejector airtime, is without a doubt, Storm Chaser! Absolutely forceful, relentless airtime! El Toro would be a close second in the individual moments department. The coaster with the most total airtime, I'd say is still probably The Voyage, though I don't find it as strong as SC, ET, or even Maverick, in the individual airtime department. Honorable mention to Magnum, which I don't feel is in the top 3 of either airtime, but is in the top 5 for both, and is by far the oldest coaster to be delivering such extravagant airtime!

CP Maverick Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I'm surprised no one mentioned the dive coasters for airtime moments. The first drop on those rides is pretty great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiftThrill Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Outlaw Run and NTaG take the cake. Iron Rattler is pretty good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Viper at Wanda Nanchang have some of the best airtime I've experienced. It's not super forceful ejector air like Megalite or Dodonpa but that's definitely one of the highest quality airtime along with Outlaw Run and Maverick.

jray21 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 El Toro gives an insane amount of airtime, especially for a woodie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Maier Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 El Toro . . . . last car, second row (for me at least) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 El Toro is so good. I also used to think it gives the best airtime...and then a few days later I rode Phoenix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canobie Coaster Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 I want to throw Expedition GeForce into the ring. The airtime is as strong as El Toro's camelbacks, but it has twice as many great airtime hills. I think Skyrush has slightly stronger air, but it's 100% comfortable on GeForce.

Nrthwnd Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 ^ Hey it's late (where I am). And everybody makes a mistake, from time to time. BTW, my own Coaster at Playland(PNE) gives some pretty awesome airtime, especially after the first run around the layout. Then it gets.... some nasty airtime. Right in the middle is where all the WTF happens. Photo from Joyrides/Joe Schwartz, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcjp Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 For me it's still Skyrush. And after learning a riding technique which saves me from the terrible pain the ride used to give me it's even more enjoyable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 If you want to be thrown out of your seat wildly non stop, ride Phoenix with your hands up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnOfTheCentury Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I second the vote Vancouver Playland coaster mentioned above -- the restraints when I rode (which was well over 20 years ago) allowed you to almost stand during some of the airtime. Not sure it's the "best airtime" for me, but it's great. Steel Vengeance probably takes my "best airtime" vote, but we are in limerence right now. (El Toro remains close by, as does Superman/ bizarro / whatever the hell it's now called at SFNE). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppedup Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 If you want to be thrown out of your seat wildly non stop, ride Phoenix with your hands up. QFT. Phoenix is my current #1 woodie. Insane airtime. Might drop in next week and marathon it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrillseeker4552 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Any hill on El Toro or Skyrush takes the cake for me. Totally sustained ejector air that shouldn't be allowed. Oh, and Railblazer. I can't forget about that thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
