Calicoasters Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Vertical Loops are my favorite Elements! A close second would be Zero-G-Rolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atem122 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I actually just sorted out my top three X2's drop (I don't care if it's officially an element or not, it's still amazing) Pretzel Loop Silver Bullet's overbanked curve (somebody's gotta show that ride some love) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calicoasters Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 ^I like that over banked curve too, I just hate that there is no angle to the first drop... I think the lift hill is steeper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true man, I mean I kind of like it being force-less until you get kicked by the loop, but the drop isn't fun at all until that point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkkyj Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 My favorite element is water, of course... Pretty sure you weren't serious, but I am... I love when water is incorporated into rides... water bombs, waterfalls, paddle wheel boats, log flumes, Pirates of the Carribbean, splash downs and mist machines. As far as coaster/track elements, I like vertical launches ala Top Thrill Dragster and Xcelerator... for a short time it's like you are an astronaut, facing straight up, going really fast.

TheHulk Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Cobra rolls have always been one of the best elements for me, along with zero g rolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the ghost Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Zero G roll The awesome drop turn thing on Colosus(I think) and Torro(I must ride it someday) Pretzel Loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedten Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 First Drops into underground tunnels & Norwegian Loops. I love Raging Bull's first drop. Imagine if Behemoth or Millennium Force's first drop was into an underground tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the ghost Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 In response to this thread I posted that got closed: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49763 I didn't mean which element is your favorite in terms of experience (that thread I KNEW had been posted before). I meant which element do you think has the coolest name, kind of like a element counterpart to this thread: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=47945 I searched for a thread about that and got nothing, so I thought it was okay to post. I think that the thread you suggested would get pretty repetitive pretty quick. There are only so many element names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mike Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Favorite element has got to be the mid course break run. But if i had to pick a second it would be Tatsu's pretzel, even though it stole my car keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vffreak07 Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Nah top hats with airtime = Glorious. I also like overbanks. Silver Bullet's overbank is Godly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny In England Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 ^ You could try getting the best of both worlds with a Kingda Ka / Stealth style hill at the bottom for airtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cal1br3tto Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 1. Airtime hills! 2. Headchoppers! I used to love them because I thought it was cute how I took them so seriously and consistently ducked. Now I've realized it's more of a rush to just keep my hands all the way up. 3. Towers/spikes--I may be wrong on the terminology, but I'm talking about vertical drops facing down, like on Vertical Velocity and Aftershock (fka Deja Vu). 4. Banked curves--I'm not so excited about them anymore, but I used to think they were really scary, believing the "sideways parts" would make me feel like I would fall out. 5. Lift hills still freak me out a little, especially in the very back seats or looking down at the first drop. I hope those are all "elements"!
