Milkchan Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 I was just wondering which coast has the best Amusement Parks and roller coasters. Could Someone give me an answer? Put pro's and con's of the coast.
smallish Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Well, the west side has two classic woodies both named Giant Dipper, and one of them is REALLY awsome. Magic Mountain rocks too. And Disneyland has some great rides (including Indianna Jones Adventure, which Disneyworld doesn't have:lolr:).
GeorgiaDawg278 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 The East has got some of the most insane rides, Top Thrill Dragster, Kingda Ka, Superman: Ride of Steel, and Millenium Force. Parks: Cedar Point, SFOG, SFGA, SFGAdv, PKD, and a bunch more.
Carnage Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 For me the east gets it just out of pure volume. The "west" for all intentes and purposes is just California. There's really nothing in between California and the midwest. While the east coast is just packed with great parks.
Milkchan Posted March 4, 2006 Author Posted March 4, 2006 One of the main clashes betweenn East Vs. West is Cedar Point and Six Flags Magic Mountain Mantis Vs. Riddlers Revenge Batman Vs. Raptor Superman Vs. Dragster Goliath Vs. MF or Goliath Vs. Magnum Psyclone Vs. Mean Streak Colossus Vs. Gemini Ninja Vs. Iron Dragon Cedar Creak Mine Vs. Gold Rush Which do you think have more of an advantage? post your answers for the Clashes above.
SonOfBeastSucks Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 East. 8) I am not going to waste my time making a pro/con list. Sorry.

HCOSurfer90 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 East definetly. You have awesome parks like CP, SFGadv, SFOG, DW, SFNE, Knoebels, Hershey, IOA. As well as the coasters: KK, Nitro, Superman: Ride of Steel, MF, TTD, The Hulk, DD, EE, and soon to be El Toro.
pgathriller Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 I will have have to go with the East. The west has some awesome parks but the East have more of them. They have great coasters and my favorite theme park, Cedar Point.
alpengeist04 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Sorry west coast, but the east coast has you beat on this one. Actually, it's not even close.
Movieguy Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 I have to lean towards the East Coast for now, because they just seem to have more in volume. But, I still want to see Magic Mountain one of these days... I might even make that my vacation trip for this year
Meteornotes Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 I've lived in both places, and the East crushes the west coast both in quality and quantity of coasters. dt
ECZenith Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 It's not really a fair arguement. The East Coast has much higher numbers than the West. While the West Coast does have some great parks, there just aren't enough of them to have a lot of GREAT parks. Plus there seems to be more classic, original amusement parks in the east that you don't really see out west.
colossus Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 when its snowing in the east and all the parks are closed. i can still go to sfmm kbf & disneyland while everyone on the east coast is snowed in.i would have to go with the wild west on this one. imo the best rides in the west are x,ghostrider,goliath,riddlers,scream,silver bullet,xcelerator,colossus,medusa,batman,deja vue,viper,roar,v2,desperado,speed,titan,texas giant,superman krypton coster. the list goes on and on
Milkchan Posted March 4, 2006 Author Posted March 4, 2006 East closes parks for winter, west keeps parks open year around that is an advantage for west. But open all year round means its harder to inspect and fix up rides that is why you see parks in the West have less reliablity than th east.
socalMAN123 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 I love socal, but the East coast has way more coasters than us! Major parks: DL, DCA, USH, SFMM, KBF, SWSD, PGA, SFMW, SCBB, BP Overall, not that great. ---Brent

Montu, Kumba, Sheikra, Dueling Dragons, The Mummy, The Hulk, Kraken, etc...
ShannonSomerville Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 I would have to say that the East Coast rocks,but that could change for me in a couple of years. SES
JT3000 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 when its snowing in the east and all the parks are closed. i can still go to sfmm kbf & disneyland while everyone on the east coast is snowed in. Last time I checked, it never snowed in the southeast, where the East's equivalents of those parks are. You just made an awful arguement for the West.
Jeezus Juice Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Agreed, the east absolutely crushes the west. There is nothing california has that florida doesn't do better. Heck, Sheikra alone owns half of SFMM at least! Now I'm going to be slammed for being 'unpatriotic' or some crap... -Deezy
PhishyBrewer Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 ^Trader!!! Why don't you move out east with all your Bush supporting friends you damn bastard. I thought we had something special Don. I feel so used.
DerekRx Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Yeah, the East wins with more quantity and quality, but then again the East doesn't have to build to accommodate earthquakes and that Californian lifestyle. If you make a coaster with too much airtime, you could lose your cell phone, and then you won't get that callback from the casting company. I still like the West coast's selection, especially SoCal, and try to visit at least once a year, but Florida's selection is far superior! Too bad all the good wood is either up north or way down south!
PhishyBrewer Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 If you make a coaster with too much airtime, you could lose your cell phone, and then you won't get that callback from the casting company. I can't even begin to tell you how many times that has happened to me.
Milkchan Posted March 4, 2006 Author Posted March 4, 2006 The east coast does have the best B&M Inverted coasters. Also have more coasters that goes above 200 ft than the west coast.
Jeezus Juice Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 ^Trader!!! Why don't you move out east with all your Bush supporting friends you damn bastard. Whatever Mr. "Demon Drop", How many times did you go to Sandusky last year? Too hard to let go of those old, awkward feelings? Have fun sitting in traffic for 3 hours just to go to Bonfante Gardens...if you need me, I'll be at Epcot asleep in the bushes... -Don ...with a can of beverly between my legs...
