Rocket Rodder Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 If I say Jaguar!, will you throw tomatoes at me? X) If so.. My favorites are California Screamin' and Space Mountain at DLR.
almightyfire Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 For me the ones that I have been on so far is for a steelie is X and for wood is EL TORO.
PKI Jizzman Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 I'm not sure if I will ever find out what the greatest coaster in the world it, but right now I have a few coasters that I think are the best in the world, as far as I know. (Maverick ) But now I know it's going to come down from the top eventually. I was hooked on Millennium Force for quite a while, and I just couldn't think of how something could be better than that. Now that I've had something that's better, I really understand that there will always be better things out there. So I keep an open mind on what I think is the best. There's a lot of coasters out there that look incredible, and some day....I'm going to try them out. But I think I can say the best drop ride goes to Giant Drop at Dreamworld
willski Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 I don't really have a favorite, it all depends on the mood I'm in. Favorites (as a group): Goliath (Walibi World) Goliath (SFoG) Kumba Maverick Apollo's Chariot MF TTD Kraken Nemesis DD Wood: Georgia Cyclone Voyage Shivering Timbers
FeelTheFORCE Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 At the current moment here are my favorites: Steel: X Wood: The Beast (at night), although this will probably change after I ride El Toro in June.
Hand 0f Time Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 MF and Montu are neck and neck for my favorites. But I'd give a slight lead for Montu just cause inverted coasters are my favorite. MONTU ftw.
thrillrideseeker Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Ok... I like a lot of roller coasters so it is SOOOO hard to pick a favorite... but I will try!! Steel- Kingda Ka for the launch!! SheiKra for the drop!! Wood- Ozark Wildcat!! Its so SMOOTH!! I think that is all... It was so hard to pick!! ~Matthew
verticalzero Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Classic Wood = Beast Prefabricated Track = Colossos at Heide Park Steel = Nemesis (due to being built in the ground).
Freak Out Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Oooo, I think mine has to be the Pepsi Max Big One at Blackpool pleasure beach England. EDIT: Favourite woodie = Grand National t Blackpool pleasure beach Favourite steel coaster = Pepsi Max Big One at Backpool
VivaLaVibora Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 1) Deja Vu (Outside seats) (Magic Mountain / Coming to Silverwood) 2) Screamin' Eagle (St. Louis) 3) La Vibora (Over Texas) 4) Batman the Ride (Over Georgia / Magic Mountain / Great Amreica Over Texas / I think that St. Louis is just good, and not great compared to the rest.) 5) Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (Disneyland's is a little better than Disney World's) 6) Mr. Freeze (Over Texas / St. Louis) 7) Georgia Cyclone (Over Georgia) 8) Superman: Ride of Steel (Six Flags America) 9) Top Thrill Dragster (Cedar Point) 10) Space Mountain (Walt Disney World / I don't like Disneyland's at all.)
signal Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 My favourite is Superman: Escape at Movie World in Australia. 2nd is Colossus at Thorpe Park, followed by Nemesis Inferno. I also really like the Bat at Canada's wonderland. Havn't been on many as you can probably tell, but I'm going to cedar point this year.
haux Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 The best in the world? I don't know. I've only ridden coasters in the States. But my favorite, easily, is Voyage. I really can't imagine how a coaster could be better. It's got tons of airtime, it's out of control, it's got laterals (laterals are the No. 1 thing I like in a wooden coaster), the tunnels are amazing. It's got the best turnaround I've ever been on, and the return trip is the best. It's the best out and back, the best wooden coaster, best everything.
bflag Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 X hands down is the best coaster in the world. For those who haven't been on it you really cant explain in words the intensity of the ride. Millenium Force,Tatsu and Kinda Ka are a close second.....in my book that is.
thrillrideseeker Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 Well I have a few coasters that I think are simply the best!! 1.) Top Thrill Dragster 2.) Kingda Ka 3.) Raptor 4.) SheiKra 5.) X-Scream (Even though it is not really a coaster.) ~Matthew
onewheeled999 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 You want to know how sad I am? I think the greatest coaster I've been on is Medusa at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Just from that, you can tell I don't go to many parks.
viking86 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 For me its easily El Toro. Even early in the day, it was ridiciolously fast. And by night it was even crazier. I have never been on a coaster which feels so alive. It doesnt feel like its rolling, it feels like the train is deciding how fast it wants to go. And it wants to go fast!! In fact, El Toro was so good that when we rode Superman (SFNE) a few days later our first thoughts were "Thats it?".
NASA Guy Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Well I have not ridden El Toro or the Voyage, so for me right now I have to say Millennium Force is almighty. It's huge, It's got speed, it's got g-forces, it's got airtime!
lame coaster dude Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Some favs of mine are: -Millennium Force -Voyage -Goliath (Walibi World) -El Toro -Xcelerator -Raven -Nitro -Dania Beach Hurricane -Maverick
HHN Dylan Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Best coaster in the world... Well my favorite coaster of all time would have to either be Montu at BGA or Hulk at IOA, I never get tired of either. Now the best in the world, I'm not to sure about that one.
XII Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Here are my Top 3. #1. Maverick #2. X2 #3. Any B&M in Florida
HHN Dylan Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 ^ That reminds me, X2 looks amazing. Never been on it but it still looks great. I could vote for X2 for best ride to.
ginzo Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 I'm going to go with Expedition GeForce, which I liked a little bit more than El Toro. The first drop on GeForce has to be experienced to appreciate the unique, whipping action it does towards the back of the train. The second hill is pretty much the best airtime hill ever. Pure ejector air way up in the air. It has nice turns with the overbanks, even though I'm not really into laterals that much. Oh, and the twisty hill before the bunny hops is a great maneuver and again something I've never experienced on any other coaster. And the final bunny hops are filled with ejector air. I understand that GeForce doesn't always run as well as it did for TPR, but I can only judge it by how it ran for us. And it ran GREAT! It sent Goliath at Walibi World crying home to momma. As well as every other hyper I've ever been on. Though SFNE'S SROS is conspicuously absent from my credit count and I'm not likely to add it this year.
