Oryp Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 My top five are El Toro, Phoenix, Bizarro (SFNE of course), I305, and Goliath (SFOG) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athletekim Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Definitely a close toss up between El Toro and Phoenix for me. I think Phoenix pulls out on top because I remember getting off thinking "I almost could of fallen out of the train" because of the amount space between my legs and the lap bar! Those last 4 hills=best airtime ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitro4ever Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 El Toro, enough said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCT3Bross Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Colossos (Heide Park) holds be best airtime so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyRCT3 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 The first drop, first airtime hill, and mini hill on Maverick were phenomenal! Raptor in the back seat on the first drop had great airtime too!  I sat in the second row on Raptor. That turn after the pre drop was as forcefull as those wingovers. I did get the sensation of airtime, looks like the next time I ride raptor (May ) I'm riding in the back first.   For Me:  Skyrocket's Top Hat @ Kennywood, front seat. -That ejector air was amazing  Corkscrew @ CP. Yes I know, but that airtime was very unexpected and was quite pleasant and painless. I don't quite remember where I sat, but it was the only time I've ever felt/enjoyed the good airtime corkscrew surprisingly offers. It's one of those hidden gems that I have to rediscover next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhappy Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) any Mega-lite out there Phoenix, and a back seat ride on Cyclops Edited November 1, 2012 by Hhappy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarnes84 Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Gotta be Skyrush no doubt about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinfari13 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Skyrush did have absolutely insane airtime, but I still prefer Phoenix at Knoebel's much more, simply because of the multiple bunny hops in a row, the loose restraints, and the fact that that ride makes me laugh like an idiot the whole time for some reason.

dylanreich Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I'm going to go with Phoenix here. I absolutely love the mixture of the buzz bars plus the bunny hills at the end that can get you near-standing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Balder and Phoenix do have that almost constant "out of the seat" feeling. Â dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark549 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Skyrush definitely gets the award for strongest negative g-force. Â My favorite first drop is still Griffon, it has a better "weightless" feel than any other I've been on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperLover Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I like the Ride of Steel at Darien Lake. Although the helixes waste a lot of room, the airtime is to die for (Literally, remember the two guys that fell out?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voxelmatic Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 For out of your seat air, Steel Force in the front. Very fun! For just the forces, however, that would be Skyrush for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double0Kevin Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I haven't been on a ton of Airtime machines sadly. My Top 5 are below. Â 1. Voyage - Rode it when it was new in 2006 and if had some great airtime. 2. Magnum - Got a trimless ride and the airtime was just INSANE 3. Maverick - Those couple of Airtime hills are great 4. Apollo's Chariot - Speaks for itself 5. Superman: Ultimate Flight (SFDK) - Purely for the fact that none of us expected that it would have the airtime it has. Â Honorable Mention: GhostRider - This is referring to back in the day when it wasn't trimmed to S#!t in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angle O. Descent Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 El Toro has the sickest airtime I've ever experienced. I'm really looking forward to trying Voyage, Phoenix and Skyrush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jray21 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Phoenix has some insane airtime, and is probably my number one. Next would probably be El Toro, with honorable mention to Superman: Ultimate Flight. S:UF doesn't have 'normal' airtime, but that ride seriously tries to throw you out of the train!

leviathanlover Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 The coaster that had the best airtime was the Mighty Canadian Minebuster before it got modified. There wasn't a second on that ride where your butt was touching the seat. Â Now, I'd have to say Magnum at Cedar Point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oryp Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 El Toro and Phoenix give incredible airtime, of course. Also, I305 in its original form had incredible ejector on the first camelback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condor Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 For sheer quantity I would have to say Phoenix. But for strongest "this coaster wants to eject me into the parking lot" airtime, Skyrush without a doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomman295 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 This may have already been done before, but if it hasn't, I'm looking forward to seeing your opinion on this. Â What's the greatest single airtime hill on a coaster you've ever ridden? Could be a floater hill, a speed hill, a first drop, a double down, anything: Just as long as it's a hill and it has airtime. r2.bmp In case you still don't know what I mean, the floater hill just before the grand turnaround on Magnum XL-200 is my favorite. Three solid seconds of glorious flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brassinthegrass Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Toss up between the intensity of the "over Rolling Thunder" hill on El Toro and the fun floating on this bunny hop on Leviathan. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinTheAttendant Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 ^^That hill over Rolling Thunder on El Toro was definitely the first one that came to mind. Â Also, the first hill on Skyrush; going over an 80 foot crest after a 200 foot drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 - First airtime hill on EGF for its perfect balance of length/strength. or - First airtime hill on Shambhala for its looooong seconds of awesome floating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spideyfreak Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Skyrush. All of them. Most insane airtime I've ever experienced! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
