Great list. Even though the offseason isn't a thing where I live, I look forward to this list every year.

 

1. Name 3 of your favorite roller coasters, but not your top 3.

Twisted Colossus, Diamondback, Phantom's Revenge

 

2. About how many different parks did you visit in 2018?

Including my home park, 7.

 

3. Which 2018 park visit was your favorite?

Visiting Cedar Point for the first time, for Coastermania.

 

4. Your favorite 2018 park addition (ride, food, show, etc)?

CraZanity at SFMM. Yes, I rode Steel Vengeance and it is a kickass ride, but I have to go with CraZanity because:

(1) It is also a kickass ride.

(2) It makes SFMM's flat ride collection suck way less.

(3) It draws some of the crowds away from the coasters and the beer garden.

 

5. What ride exceeded your expectations the most in 2018?

Jackrabbit at Kennywood. I definitely wasn't expecting the insane amount of airtime the back seat delivers on that double down. And it runs great for its age!

 

6. Best meal/food at a park in 2018?

Boardwalk BBQ at Knott's Berry Farm, hands down.

 

7. What was your favorite new coaster of 2018 NOT made by RMC or Larson?

Hangtime at Knott's Berry Farm. That little ride packs a punch and is a great fit for that park.

 

8. Name one park you will definitely visit in 2019.

California's Great America... I missed out on it during my 2018 NorCal trip, so I'll definitely hit it this year.

 

9. Best ride themed to a bird?

Raptor at Cedar Point. Yeah, it has no theming, but it's the closest thing I've ridden to a themed bird ride.

 

10. Lamest ride/coaster you rode in 2018?

IMG_3828.thumb.JPG.d5cac192c239c4faf62abb20d09e9e9f.JPG

Worst log flume ever.

 

11. What roller coaster currently sits at the top of your bucketlist? (degree of difficulty: NOT a new-for-2019 ride)

Intimidator 305

 

12. What new-for-2019 ride or coaster are you most looking forward to?

West Coast Racers at SFMM, simply because it's at my home park and I probably won't do much traveling this year.

 

13. Name the first totally middle-of-the-road (not bad/not great) park that comes to mind.

Kennywood

 

14. You're in Orlando and magically have a 1-hour ERT session on 1 coaster of your choice at any park in the city. You choose...

Mako at SeaWorld

 

15. Holiday In The Park vs. Winterfest. Who reigns supreme?

Never been to a WinterFest event, but if Knott's Merry Farm counts, then Knott's Merry Farm it is.

 

16. Mystic Timbers mystery shed or Wicker Man fire infusion?

I've never ridden Wicker Man, so... Mystic Timbers, by default.

 

17. Which Six Flags have you been to most recently?

Magic Mountain

 

18. Intamin or Schwarzkopf? You may only choose one.

Intamin, hands down.

 

19. Battle of Kings Coasters: Island or Dominion? Pick one.

I have yet to visit Dominion, so... Island, by default.

 

20. What was the longest you waited for a ride/coaster in 2018?

2 hours for Dragster, since it broke down for over an hour just as I was about to board.

 

21. What roller coaster have you ridden more than any other?

Viper at Magic Mountain. I honestly can't get enough of that ride.

 

22. Best drop tower under 150 feet?

Sky Diver at Castles 'N' Coasters.

 

23. Maverick or Millennium Force? (If you haven't been to CP, pick what you want to ride more)

Maverick. Millennium Force didn't blow me away like I expected it to, but Maverick did.

 

24. Log flumes or sky rides? You can only choose one.

Tough choice, but I'd go with log flumes.

 

25. What are 3 things you enjoying doing at your home park other than riding rides?

Eat food, drink beer, and use the restroom? ...I dunno, there's not much else to do at Magic Mountain besides ride rides.

 

26. What is your second favorite Cedar Fair park and why?

Knott's Berry Farm. It has my favorite atmosphere out of any park and a decent ride collection, and I have a lot of good memories of this park from when I was a kid. It's second only to Cedar Point because Cedar Point has a much better ride collection and nicer view.

 

27. What is your home park and give us two good reasons why we should pay it a visit.

Six Flags Magic Mountain. It has the best coaster collection at any park that is not named Cedar Point, and you can visit it in the middle of winter.

 

28. Launch or Lift?

Lift

 

29. Did you buy fast pass at all in 2018?

The closest thing I've bought was those $5 fast pass games at Knott's and Kings Island, where you spin a wheel and get a fast pass for whatever ride it lands on. I was given all kinds of jealous looks as I strutted to the front of the queues for Jaguar, Pony Express, and Adventure Express.

 

30. What is your least favorite wooden coaster?

Thunderbolt at Kennywood. It wasn't a bad ride, it just didn't do much for me.

 

31. Disney fanboys: cool or cult?

Cult.

 

32. Best Batman themed ride?

SFMM's Batman the Ride, of course.

 

33. Name something that tend to take home from parks that you didn't bring with you.

Gum on my shoes.

 

34. Best wooden coaster over 110 feet tall? (rcdb will help you)

Ghostrider at Knott's Berry Farm

 

35. Have you ever been hit with something (loose change/a tree/vomit/etc) while riding something?

I got hit with a shower of bugs on most of my night rides at Cedar Point last summer.

 

36. Skywarps: credits or no? State your case.

No. They're just glorified Super Loops.

 

37. Turkey legs: nah or yaaaaassssss?

YAAAAAASSSSSSSS!!

 

38. What is the most recent B&M that you rode?

Scream at SFMM

 

39. You can eat nothing but corn dogs, churros or funnel cake for the next 48 hours, which do you choose?

Churros!

 

40. Post a great on-ride shot of you from 2018. (DO IT!)

:lol: You people have no taste.

Every time I read someone's answers that DON'T say that Phoenix is their favorite bird coaster, I cry on the inside.

 

You're right. I put Raptor because I couldn't remember any real bird theme other than the name for Phoenix. Then I realized couldn't remember any bird theme for Raptor either. I just left it as is. I guess Wild Eagle would fit. Those trains are awesome and it is a 'wing' coaster.

 

I assumed coasterbill was referring to the 2:1 preference for Maverick.

Have not ridden Phoenix yet, so that's my reasoning. I was only going off of what I've ridden

I was going to read this entire thread but gave up after about 10-15...

 

This year was definitely the "year least traveled" due to our wedding and other stuff going on, but without further adeu...

 

1. Name 3 of your favorite roller coasters, but not your top 3.

That doesn't make sense. lol? Here are 3 random coasters I like:

-- Verbolten

-- Raven

-- Silver Comet

 

2. About how many different parks did you visit in 2018?

 

First off let me say I have a really bad memory. Like. Really bad. To quote my wife: "Alan cannot remember what he did yesterday but he can remember the phone number to order Phantom of the Opera tickets for Toronto back in 1999. #416-872-2222"

 

Based on looking at my wife's Facebook feed....

Great Adventure

Cedar Point

Great Escape

Darien Lake

Fantasy Island (ny)

Kings Island

Kings Dominion

Busch Williamsburg

 

3. Which 2018 park visit was your favorite?

Probably Kings Dominion because we went on I305 at LEAST 8 times in a row in the back seat without getting up and I felt like I was in another dimension on that 8th ride. HOLY POOP.

 

4. Your favorite 2018 park addition (ride, food, show, etc)?

BEHOLD! the new haunt at Fantasy Island... MIDWAY MAYHEM!

 

f27fbc41bb23ace568b4354f605e11e6.jpg

 

5. What ride exceeded your expectations the most in 2018?

Steel Vengeance?

 

Runner up: "I was not strapped tight enough on Firehawk so I was floating around that seat like a chicken on a rotisserie." - My Wife

 

6. Best meal/food at a park in 2018?

Coney BBQ at Kings Island, surprisingly. Off the top of my head.

 

7. What was your favorite new coaster of 2018 NOT made by RMC or Larson?

I don't think I rode any that weren't RMCs? Oh wait!! That new one at Darien Lake (I honestly can't remember its name)

 

8. Name one park you will definitely visit in 2019.

I would like to go back to Carowinds and Dollywood but probably won't happen. I would also like to visit Texas parks, but that won't happen. I bought tickets for Holiday World and Kennywood already... so those, for sure.

 

9. Best ride themed to a bird?

Skyhawk (CANADA'S WONDERLAND)

 

10. Lamest ride/coaster you rode in 2018?

Wonder Mountains Guardian... only because I think all 4 times I rode it the guns were non-functional and the projectors were all out of sync/not working properly...

 

11. What roller coaster currently sits at the top of your bucketlist? (degree of difficulty: NOT a new-for-2019 ride)

Any new RMC. There are some opening in 2020, too, right?

 

12. What new-for-2019 ride or coaster are you most looking forward to?

Probably copperhead strike. It has some maverick-ness to it.

 

13. Name the first totally middle-of-the-road (not bad/not great) park that comes to mind.

Darien Lake

 

14. You're in Orlando and magically have a 1-hour ERT session on 1 coaster of your choice at any park in the city. You choose...

Montu? Maybe Mako, but I haven't been on it yet... Or maybe Manta? ANYTHING THAT BEGINS WITH THE LETTER M!!

 

15. Holiday In The Park vs. Winterfest. Who reigns supreme?

Have only been too GADV HITP and no winterfest yet. Though I hear Wonderland is on the table this year.

 

16. Mystic Timbers mystery shed or Wicker Man fire infusion?

I like fire.

 

17. Which Six Flags have you been to most recently?

Great Adventure. Technically Darien Lake.

 

18. Intamin or Schwarzkopf? You may only choose one.

Intamin for sure

 

19. Battle of Kings Coasters: Island or Dominion? Pick one.

Dominion edges it out with TT

 

20. What was the longest you waited for a ride/coaster in 2018?

STEEL VENGEANCE -- maybe 2.5 hours was the longest one?

 

21. What roller coaster have you ridden more than any other?

It's probably Leviathan at Wonderland overall, or Raven at Holiday World, because I marathoned the crap out of it the few times I've been.

 

22. Best drop tower under 150 feet?

Demon drop or tower of terror

 

23. Maverick or Millennium Force? (If you haven't been to CP, pick what you want to ride more)

Maverick, no question. Though I did start to appreciate MF a little more this year.

 

24. Log flumes or sky rides? You can only choose one.

I like sky rides if they have a purpose (Cedar Point's is probably the dumbest to exist, sorry Bill). I have a new appreciation for Log Flumes after riding Dudley and Knott's @ Halloween.

 

25. What are 3 things you enjoying doing at your home park other than riding rides?

I will call CP and CW my home parks since I go multiple times every year

1) Brew & BBQ

2) Brew and BBQ

3) Brew + BBQ

 

26. What is your second favorite Cedar Fair park and why?

DAMN... tough one... probably Knott's? I just love the atmosphere it's so unlike any other Cedar Fair park. Plus BOYSENBERRY EVERYTHING!!! (except lemonade, which is a missing demographic -- we have to make it ourselves )

 

27. What is your home park and give us two good reasons why we should pay it a visit.

TECHNICALLY Darien Lake and Fantasy Island as I own passes for 2019... Silver Comet is a top tier coaster that gets overlooked.

 

28. Launch or Lift?

Mmmmm... Lunch. I mean Launch.

 

29. Did you buy fast pass at all in 2018?

Many times

 

30. What is your least favorite wooden coaster?

 

93ab758589dff63b40f36eab3bfcf7d1.jpg

 

Honestly I rode it for the first time in a while and I REALLY enjoyed it!!

 

"I honestly thought it derailed" -- my wife

 

31. Disney fanboys: cool or cult?

I like Disney but I think some people are waaayyy out there in their love for the strangest things. Like waiting 4 hours to meet a man in a suit.

 

32. Best Batman themed ride?

Uhhhh...

 

33. Name something that tend to take home from parks that you didn't bring with you.

Sweaty balls

 

34. Best wooden coaster over 110 feet tall? (rcdb will help you)

Not looking it up. I think Raven is probably 95, or 109, or something dumb.

 

35. Have you ever been hit with something (loose change/a tree/vomit/etc) while riding something?

1. Long ago I hit a support with my hand out of the first helix on SFDL Ride of Steel (because my dumbass wanted to see if it was possible)

2. Trees on Sheikra and SFDL viper

 

36. Skywarps: credits or no? State your case.

Is that the thing that opened at SFDK? I don't think so.

 

37. Turkey legs: nah or yaaaaassssss?

Depends on where it's from. Universal? Yessss. SEAS? Nooooooo.

 

Honerable mention is the pork shank cart at BGW though I haven't seen it since my one visit a few years ago -- probably the best thing I've ever eaten in a non Disney park.

 

38. What is the most recent B&M that you rode?

Dominator? Ironically I think that was also the first B&M I've ever been on, back at Geauga Lake. Maybe not.

 

39. You can eat nothing but corn dogs, churros or funnel cake for the next 48 hours, which do you choose?

Churros, 100%

 

40. Post a great on-ride shot of you from 2018.

I'd also include a boozy lunch at the Friday's in CP EDIT:I totally forgot about craft beer and food festival at SWO in Nov!! That was the best.

 

7. What was your favorite new coaster of 2018 NOT made by RMC or Larson? New for me, or new for 2018? New for 2018, I’d go with Tantrum, I guess. New for me would be Skyrush

16. Mystic Timbers mystery shed or Wicker Man fire infusion? FYRE

38. What is the most recent B&M that you rode? KUMBA

1. Name 3 of your favorite roller coasters, but not your top 3.

 

Batman: The Ride at SFFT. Love the flippy-doos.

Manta at SeaWorld San Diego. One of the best crowd pleasers out there.

Space Fantasy. Because ducking fuh.

 

2. About how many different parks did you visit in 2018?

 

One. 2018 was a big year what with another cross-country move, getting married, and a honeymoon to Hawaii. Parks fell to the wayside. That's gonna be changing this year, though!

Well, I only visited Knott's and I only did it twice, both for Scary Farm. So, you know, one of those.

The Depths haunt at Scary Farm.

 

5. What ride exceeded your expectations the most in 2018?

 

Ghost Rider. When I last rode it after the renovation I found it to be fun but not nearly as intense as it used to be. It has broken in BIG TIME since then. Riding it during Scary Farm was insane. It screams through the course and has forces out the yin yang!

 

6. Best meal/food at a park in 2018?

 

Mrs. Knott's Chicken.

Someone's hat.
