kidcoaster Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Dragon Mountain at Marineland in Canada. During the morning I was the first on and the only one on the first load and when I got to the mid course break run it stop and I was slmmed on the Harrness. The next morning I had a mark from it.

darklight_tr Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Steel: Superman: Ride of Steel at Six Flags New England Wood: Viper at Six Flags Great America Viper is especially painful. I never understood why they had to slam on the brakes at the end of that ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrakenKing Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 The coasters that I can think of that have an abrupt stop are: Mummy at USF (Fake ending) Cheetah Chase (Before the turn to the "Big drop") Deja Vu (On the Vertical Spike) Python @ BGA (Ending Breaks before station) GASM @ SFoG (End Breaks) Ninja @ SFoG (1st set of breaks) Scorpion @ BGA (Station stop) Kumba @ BGA (First set of end breaks after helix) Dueling Dragons Both (End Breaks before exit platform) Those are the only ones I can think that have harsh break runs...

USRoadTripper Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Mean Streak and Flying Unicorn are the two that I remember thinking "*That* is why you don't ride coasters when you're pregnant!" when I hit the brake runs. -Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfie Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 That have to be Hypersonic XLC for me. It hurts so much. I also remember Viper at SFGAm to be extremely painfull. Yeah... it's pretty bad. Especially if you're not prepared for it. However, if you hold onto the bar infront of you and straigten out your arms before you hit the brake run, it's not as painful.

ChrisFL Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Yep, Revenge of the Mummy's Fake Unload is pretty harsh, and also the Flying Uniccorn...plus Scorpion at BGT, I mean BGA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beate's Freak Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I remember SFFT's boomerang having several sudden stops in the sloping station. ^bit of a toungue twister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socalMAN123 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I remember the original Mullholland Madness @ DCA had brakes so harsh, that they had to modify them because a lady had recieved a concussion from them. Now, they are still pretty harsh, but not as harsh as they used to be. ---Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSLSM Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Steel: S:UF- After you exit the barrel roll, the brakes quickly slow you down, and the block brakes after the 180* turn also don't fel good Wood: Cyclops or Pegasus-I don't remember the coaster, but all I could think after the brakes was ouch.

smallish Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 The Dragon and Spellbreaker at Legoland CA have (and had) sharp stops, but they kinda contribute to the ride. 200th post!!!!1!!11!!!oneONE!!!@!~!@!$~!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCOSurfer90 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 My first boomerang (which I thought was awesome), Sidewinder at Hershey had the worst short stop in my life. I swear I thought I broke my ribs on it. Other than that it was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscoasters Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 The Wildcat at Frontier City stops in less than one second! No kidding. The brake run is about 5 ft. longer than the train. It HURTS! After the brake run, there is a small drop and then a straight track, why not put brakes there, and keep the ones they have on? The Mamba at WOF also stops quickly.

IwantRevenge Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Goliaths (SFMM) MCBR is very powerful, you get pused into the restriant Alos GASM (SFGadv) is very strong, I hear many trians get stuck on it. Any batman clone's end brakes are powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Gemini, Xcelerator, and Raptor are the most intense ones I've been on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOYS Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Mine probably has to be X-Flight at Geauga Lake. It hurts even more because you are laying down... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knottslover77 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Gemini, Xcelerator, and Raptor are the most intense ones I've been on. Xcelerator I think it has a smooth stop. --Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP_RULES Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 The Mamba at WOF also stops quickly. Was this before they had the MCBR on so hard? Because I have never had a sharp stop on Mamba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMan Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 coming into the station on revolution at sfmm i dont think it is that bad Goliaths (SFMM) MCBR is very powerful, you get pused into the restriant goliath does have a forcefull MCBR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapseofreason Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 I hate the MCBR (or that weird brake run somewhere near the middle, which technically WOULD make it a... oh, never mind) on Revolution. To me, it hurts, and I always think "Why the fudge is there a brake run HERE?" when the train hits it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twister II Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Boomerangs. Like, when you come forward into the station, a lot of quick stops, enough to get a head ache. Twister II, when it stops in the break run, the entire break run, down the the last turn sways back and forth. Zamperla Volares, the hell machines slam your shoulders into those 'restraints'. Wildcat at Cedar Point. T2Brake.zip Watch these kids get whiplash on Twister II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
