downunder Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 My current faves: 1. Superman Ride of Steel (SFNE) 2. El Toro 3. A very large amount of daylight. 4. Maverick
Team Thriller Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 I'm going to have to also say Expedition Ge Force. The first drop is the greatest. (You have to sit in the back seat for it to be out of this world) The airtime is unbelievable. 1.) Ge Force 2.) X 3.) Alpengiest 1.) Collossos 2.) Screamin Eagle 3.) Roar (SFDK) ^^^^^ How could you vote for a coaster that you've never been on. I never have understood that. --James

Expedition GeForce (Holiday Park) 5. Nemesis (Alton Towers) 6. Griffon (Busch Gardens Europe) 7. Apollo's Chariot (Busch Gardens Europe) 8. Behemoth (Canada's Wonderland) 9. Silver Star (Europa Park) 10. Goliath (Walibi World)

The Disneylander Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 My favorite steelie is Maverick, followed very closely by Eagle Fortress. As for woodies, I'll have to say Blue Streak(you can tell I haven't been on many woodies!).
Jcoaster Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 For me my number one steel would be Apollo's Chariot at BGE and my number one wood would be El Toro at SFGADv.
odene497 Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Boulderdash. I seriously don't think anyone can say anything about a good ride until they've ridden that at night in the front.
downunder Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 What ones do I like best? Wood: Phoenix, Boulder Dash, El Toro - only a split hair between them for me, all different ride experiences all awesome. If I had ridden them, I think T-Express and Balder would challenge. Steel: Superman Ride Of Steel @ SFNE, though I think Expedition GeForce would challenge if I had ridden it.
coastered Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 I think the best steel rollercoaster in the world is Nemesis @ Alton Towers. It has the speed, the g-forces, a compact layout and great theming combined into 1 great rollercoaster. And my number two steel is Expedition GeForce. This rollercoaster has the speed, g-forces and a insane layout but they forgot a great theming. As for wood it will be Colossos @ Heidepark. This is the world first Intamin plug n'play woodie. It has a freaking firstdrop, great speeds and insane airtime.
viking86 Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Wood: El Toro is by far the best coaster I have been on, wood or steel. However, the best experience is riding Thundercoaster in the rain. No line, two-train operation and a ride that was just going "too fast" makes it the most amazing coaster experience Ive ever had. Unfortunately the average ride is nowhere near that good. This is closely followed by Boulder Dash and Thunderbird. I cant really decide which ride I think is the better one. Fifth on my list is Balder. Steel: I cant decide between Storm Runner and Nitro. Storm Runner is pure intensity, while Nitro is just a plain fun ride that I could ride all day long without getting bored. And then theres Wild Train, a ridicilously funny coaster. Followed by these rides comes a bunch of rides that I find very hard to rank; SROS @ SFNE, Tornado @ Särkänniemi, Katun, Superman la Attracion de Acero, Lisebergbanan, etc.....
