Pyrozooka0 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Despite my hatred of Ninja at SFOG, I am actually pretty soft on Vekoma. Favorite vekoma: Nighthawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marth555 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I really love Firehawk the sensation of flight is unreal and the loop is just amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XYZ Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Kings Island's Invertigo. A nice smooth, forceful coaster and it's one of my favorites at Kings Island. Â For some reason, it's way better than the California/Pennsylvania one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3Mutts Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I have only ridden two Vekoma's that I consider any good and they are Goliath at SFNE and Firehawk when it was at Geauga lake. Ive ridden one ok one which is Sidewinder at Hershey Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flaffstar99 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Uh, a fave one? I like big thunder mountain in DLP and Speed of Sound, good Vekoma Boomerang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Space Mountain. Still need a better one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galahad Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Gardaland's Magic Mountain, my very first looping coaster, actually my very first coaster dot. Honourable mention to Disney Paris Space Mountain, a bit rough but still the best of its kind out there in my opinion; can't wait for the refurb. and the new trains...

Heth Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Despite the flak they get for rough coasters, now that I think about it they really do very good quality custom and family coasters actually. Â Big Thunder Mountain (DL Paris), Expedition Everest, Big Grizzly Mountain, Seven Dwarves Mine Train etc. are excellent. It just seems a lot of the older and off-the-shelf models suffer. Â Honorable mention for Vekoma Madhouses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grsupercity Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Thunderhawk MIA. Just hold your head forward and its a great ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiCraft2011 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I have had the "pleasure" to ride two Vekomas. One of them was the Boomerang at Knott's. The other was Gadget's Go Coaster at Disneyland. Boomerang is awful and I don't remember much about my Disneyland trip back in 2010. I have to say that my "favorite" Vekoma is Gadget's Go Coaster.

ernierocker Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Everest followed by Rock n' Roller Coaster  I can now add Seven Dwarves Mine Train to my favorite list. Just a fun, little ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Well, as it turns out, I've been on 4: Ninja at SFStL, Boomerang at SFFT, Boomerang at WoF, and Spacely's Sprocket Rockets. Â So Spacely's Sprocket Rockets. Ninja is absolutely the worst coaster I've ever ridden, and I don't care for the Boomerangs either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScreaminNewEngland Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Their Giant Inverted Boomerangs are hands down the best. Â I love Mind Eraser at SFNE and I also enjoy the boomerangs. They're really not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1ngdaKa88 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I like Mammut at Gardaland, the Vekoma Mine Train Coaster Also a ok coaster of them is Magic Mountain at Gardaland, this is a double loop double corkscrew with the new restraints Another double loop double corkscrew of them was also ok and this was with the old restraints but I didn't get any headbanging because my head was over the restraints, but I wasn't able to put my hands up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Expedition Everest, in my opinion easily the best coaster of the WDW resort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfoot12 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I love the two GIB's I've been on. Favorite by far. Â Most Vekomas don't bother me that much. I've been on some painful boomerangs but have been able to tolerate most. I've only been on three SLC's and SFA's was the worst by far. Nighthawk sucked but I like the other flyers. I enjoyed Two-Face and Invertigo (KI). I enjoyed all the Disney Vekomas. Their family coasters (roller skaters and family suspendeds) are mostly enjoyable. Â That said, I'm sure there's an SLC or Ninja out there somewhere just waiting to make me eat this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonGeorge Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I have to agree with GIBs. Aftershock was one of the best coaster experiences I had all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VF15 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 As of September 2015, my favorite Vekoma is Firehawk at Kings Island. I expected the worst with this coaster given all of the horror stories I'd heard about roughness, but to my surprise, it was actually quite smooth except for one or two spots. I enjoyed the flying sensation, and it had some decent forces, especially in the vertical loop (favorite part of the ride). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradox Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Goliath at SFNE before they added the new trains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFJorts Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) Deja Vu is (was?) my favorite. Love the vertical winch and pause, then release--super intense and exciting. A close second is the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Disney. Very smooth for a Vekoma and has fun theming, even though I'm not a huge Aerosmith fan. This along with Tower of Terror give Hollywood Studios a great one-two punch. Third would be Firehawk at Kings Island. I like the layout better than most of the B&M flyers, Tatsu excepted--can't beat the huge pretzel loop! Edited October 1, 2015 by MFJorts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
