Scaparri Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Uh that would have to be X2 for the best all the way even though I haven't been on it yet I already know its the best. Not another one of those... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laqueefa Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Worst Woodie: the Grizzly Best Woodie: the Giant Dipper Worst Steel: Best Steel: the X's have it! a tie between X2 & Xcelerator Best Steel pretending to be a Woodie: California Screamin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahecht Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Best: X Worst: X Yup, my best and worst coaster rides have both been on the same temperamental beast. I've yet to ride it as X2, but I don't count that as a new coaster anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mechanic Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 "Best" is a tough choice because there are a lot of coasters I like a lot. Tatsu is up there pretty high in my personal rankings, along with Xcellerator, Space Mountain and California Screamin. Maybe finally getting to ride X2 will change my mind? Worst is easy: Grizzly at CGA. It may be the worst coaster ever, anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastered Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Best steel: Stealth (Thorpe park)Worst steel: Vertigo (Walibi Belgium) Best wood: Troy (Toverland) Worst wood: Pegasus (Efteling) I don't think you have read the topic title?? This topic is about the best and worst coaster in California!! Worst steel: Vortex (CGA) - A real torture device Best steel: That's difficult - Tatsu (SFMM), Xcelerator (KBF) or Riddler's Revenge (SFMM). I haven't been on X (or X2) yet, because it was closed during my SoCal visit in 2006. Worst wood: Grizzly (CGA) - The world's largest piece of fire wood Best wood: Big Dipper (Belmont Park), if I had done Ghostrider (KBF) back in 2006, this would have been the best woodie in California, But it was closed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shepp Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Since there aren't really all that many outstanding coasters in CA, especially NorCal, there seems to be a pretty broad consensus...which I'll join, more or less. Best steel: XCelerator, Tatsu, X2, with a shoutout to the drop and helix on Goliath. Oh, and the new Space Mountain is pretty splendid. Best wood: GR was down last week, and my memories of it are pretty rough. Roar at night, on the other hand, can be amazing. Worst steel: so many to choose from. Kong, I guess. Worst wood: why fight the world? Grizzly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFAfan#1 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Im my opinion: Ninja SFMM is the worst Riddlers Revenge and X2 SFMM are tied for the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAYASHI Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I agree with some of the ppls list here, but here's my pick. Best Steel: Top Gun (PGA) pulls nice lat/ver g-forces. Best Wood: GhostRider (KBF) the momentum is constant and swift at various points I would consider my worst list, not a worst at all, but rather, disappointments. Steel: Vortex (PGA) for a compact lay-out -stand up, all it offered me was a nice intense lateral dip before the corkscrew at the end. Wood: Psyclone (SFMM) momentum of the ride was like pressing pause and play. the ride 'played' on every drop, however, every climb/crest the train made was slow enough to 'pause' my excitement.

the ghost Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I've only been to SFMM, and Disney (both parks) in California. Best: Deja VU Worst: (Tie) Superman the Escape, Space Mountain, and Viper Wow, I've never heard anyone call space mountain one of the worst and Vu as the best. You have unusual taste in coasters.

Bolliger&Mabillard Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Best X1 (call me old fashioned, but i like it better the way it was) , every B&M at MM except Scream and Xcelerator Worst None really. Maybe Scream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihani Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 X is evil and rough though, isn't it? I know there are way worse coasters, but California Screamin' annoys me. I don't think it's that good, since they added the trims and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillgeek Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I've been to SFDK, DL, DCA, SCBB and SFMM so.... Best: The original X (Haven't been since 2004) Worst: This is a tough one for me.

Rollerman87 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Best: Riddler's Revenge (I'm a sucker for B&Ms), although X2 is a close second. Worst: Ghostrider. Bleck. I miss Psyclone, a fun version of pain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillgeek Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 ^I agree. Phyclone really hurt but had some air time to keep me occupied while I was riding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
