chickenbowl Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Diamondback had awesome floater over almost every hill. Same with Mellenium Force, every hill was bliss. Magnum had ejector during the whole return trip (My phone came out my pocket). GhostRider baskseat on the mid-course drop = Insane headchoppers!
Dietcokevan Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Best moments: Maverick's first airtime hill just sends you FlYING. El Toro's Rolling Thunder hill, my thighs hurt the next day. Incredible might be an understatement. Bizarro (SFNE) the two that run next to the lift were just fantastic, it was very strong, and long lasting! Xcelerator going down the tophat in the back is great! Magnum was amazing on the "return trip" I said "Oh sh*t!" on all of the hills. Best coasters with airtime: The ones above. Diamondback in the front had ejector/really strong floater on the big hills. The small ones was weak floater at best. Still an awesome ride. Ravine Flyer II fantastic! Very strong airtime that lasted quite a while on most of the hills.
Dollywood Pete Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 One word: Phoenix! Talk about *Stand-Up* air on every drop (minus the first one for some odd reason). I believe we have a winner! SM at MM is not really a coaster it is more of an amusement ride but the AT is awesome.
CCI Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 I know this probably can't be said any more for both but I got great airtime on Intimidator (opining day) and Hurler (last year).
tiger01 Posted August 10, 2010 Posted August 10, 2010 Grand National!!!! The Double Drop! So Good! Big Dipper! Scary Airtime! Hills going out! Awesome Woodies!
XII Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 The following rides currently have the best ride I've experienced. Coaster @ PNE Playland Cyclops @ Mt. Olympus Phoinex @ Knoebels Jackrabbit @ Kennywood Phantoms Revenge @ Kennywood Comet @ Great Escape Magnum XL 200 @ Cedar Point Maverick @ Cedar Point
cal1br3tto Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 My top tier Giant Dipper (SCBB) Timber Terror Voyage Evel Knievel Powder Keg Others I appreciate Cyclops Tornado (Adventureland) Mamba Tremors Coaster Thrill Ride Goliath (SFMM) Hellcat Outlaw Hades
MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 The Cyclone at Lakeside in Denver has insane airtime in the front car. Going over the first hil, there's a foot of air between your ass and the seat.
KSo Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 Two favorites that come to mind for air time are Phoenix and Apollo's Chariot. Seat padding is almost irrelevant on these rides, since you spend most of your time above the seats and not on them.
turbolaaf Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 For me: EGF (holidaypark) Colossos (heidepark) Coaster (Playland) it's a damn scary ride I forgot the rest since i rode 300+ coasters.....
RollerCoasterSmi Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 Silver Star at the back gives both really good ejector and even better floater air time.
WW1 Flying Ace Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 I 've found no equal for El Toro yet. (Only Pre-fab I've been on) The B&M hypers mostly have pretty consistent floater air. I didn't get any on behemoth for some reason. Magnum's return trip is pretty sweet too.
Sportsdude360 Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 I'll put in a good word for the New Texas Giant! Never experienced air like that on any other coaster.
jjune4991 Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 I love Sheikra's drops in the back row for airtime. But the airtime I saw in the video of Twister at Grona Lund looks incredible!
tiger01 Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 I love Sheikra's drops in the back row for airtime. But the airtime I saw in the video of Twister at Grona Lund looks incredible! I second that!
BrandonR Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Goliath at SFMM. That ride only gives air on the first drop and the one airtime hill.
texcoaster Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 Another vote for New Texas Giant. Airtime on almost every hill and extreme air in at least three places. By extreme, I mean OMFG.
StarTrekGeek Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Goliath at SFMM. That ride only gives air on the first drop and the one airtime hill. I know, I haven't gone on many hypers yet (I rarely go out of state).
ANJLOVER14 Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Although SoCal coasters kinda suck in the airtime department, California Screamin' emerges as my favorite (especially the first hill after the launch). Worst airtime is voted to Grizzly @ CGA's!! That ride sucked and was boring as h... sorry, I dozed off for a second just thinking about it!
Blind Idiot God Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 SFNE Cyclone has absolutely terrifying air in the back on virtually every descent, plus most of the ascents.
stuff2break Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Goliath (Walibi, nl) - Probably the most 'fun' airtime i've had on a coaster El Toro - Most forceful airtime and most exciting.. Superman (Parque Warner) - Most unexpected airtime I've ever had on a coaster!
