CoasterFanatic Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Good sounds: B&M Roar. Kumba has always been my fave. Thunderbolts Spaghetti Bowl Schwarzkoph Loops Bad sounds: The Big One The loud clunk at the top of Whirlwind at Knoebels (gone) Any turn on the Mean Squeak at Cedar Point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenshinmac Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 OMG you want to hear something terrifying you should hear the Boomerang at Elitch Gardens... I am not kidding when I say that those sounds are not natural. Plus how on earth does the chain lift thrash the entire train twice when the it disengages? I really want to know... It is just the most incredibly uncomfortable thing for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phazan Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Superman at SFMM sounds like a jet when it goes up it's spike. I also like Ninja's brakes (SFMM) because the sound like drunk birds or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiCoastal Kid Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I've always been a fan of the loud clang that occurs when Mindbender @ SFoG engages the lift. It also kicks you in the back, but it's awesome. Ghostrider has a sort of "screech" going around the turns. I like that too. And Achrophobia when is hits the brakes and then huge blast of air? Heck yeses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumboshrmp Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I like all of the sounds. The roar of B&Ms (especially hulk), the sound of a chain lift engaging, and one of my favorites, the sound of the chain dog speeding up as gravity starts to take over at the top of the lift.

weeow Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Favs: The sound when Expedition Everest engages and disengages from it's lift hills. The sound of the Georiga Scorcher coming back into the staion. The sound of any wooden coaster Hates: The GASM at SOFG's brakes when they transport you. *screeech* The super loud blow-your-ears-out music that plays when a train is dispatched on Batman at SFOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UberBeavis Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Favorite sounds: The brakes of Ninja at SFMM - Sounds like a baby elephant Brakes opening and launch of Montezooma's Revenge at Knott's Least favorite sounds: Whining parents "Why can't he ride, he's only a lil under the line!?"

Milkchan Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Favorite - B&M roar. Specifically the Mantis - The sound when TTD launches - Chain lift on most wooden coaster - SOund of wooden coaster cars screeching along the track - Chain lift on Vekoma and Arrows Least - Son of Beast Chain lift - The screams of people wanting to call 911 while riding Son of beast - Hypersonic Brakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACEfanatic02 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I love the B&M roar... music to my ears. Hypersonic's brakes always sound strange. "CHUNK-Chunk-chunk" Hate it. But the launch is a beautiful sound. -ACE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartanTS Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 The B&M roar is as nice as a American V8. Pure classic sound that never gets old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matteocrepaldi Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 My favourit sound is TTD launch's sound! I rode 5 B&Ms but I can't remember any particular sound. Next time I'll pay more attention. I hate Son of Beast chain lift's sound. It's not a sound it's a noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stitch Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Sounds *B&M roar *Arrow brake "tss pst pst" *Drop Zone (PKI) going in to the brakes Smells *King Cobra had a wicked Diesel smell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfie Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I love the sounds of Arrow brake runs and the B&M roar - also when they make the faint "clackity-clack" sound at the bottom of high hills. The sound I don't like is the constant "BANG! BANG! BANG!" of an old ride when it goes through turns... it freaks me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fry Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 The worst is the GRRRIINNNNDDD SMASH SMASH EEEEEKKKKK KABOOM! That Colossus at Thorpe Park is getting. Add to that the screams of pain and it's a hideous sounding ride. My favourite is the ROARRRR that Dragon Khan has, or the sound of a Rocket's launch.

Erik Johnson Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Let me think. El Toro "Kinda a high pitched whirling sound" is kinda cool. Mindbender's Vertical Loops The Incredible Hulk's Launch Kumba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike541x Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I like the sound of jokers jinx when it goes through its corse. I love the sound of a wooden roller coaster going up in a chain lift. I hate the sound of the Hypersonic's breaks. I hate the Expedition Everest sound of the second chain lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantRevenge Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 i love the sound of a B&M roar, nothing sweeter. Also the sound KingDa Ka makes down the launch track (when your off the ride on the ride all you ehar in the trian shaking). EDIT: the worst is The Chiller, when that thing launches the whole aprk knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I've always really liked the B&M roar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Goliath and Titain have the best chainlifts. Also I like any B&M roar, like Riddler's Revenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Sabo Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 I wish to add to my original post in that: 1. Drachen Fire-station brakes. Ohhh so sweet. Even working maintenance on the thing, I never got tired of that sound (or am I deaf now?..lol) 2. Love the Arrow-style rollbacks (especially on Nessie-before the yr-2001 changes).

IwantRevenge Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I have more, The sound a B&M makes when it enters the station the: clickclick ca chink sound. And the Arrow Trim brakes on Scream Machine after the First loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okinawaboy11 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I like the sound of jokers jinx when it goes through its corse.. Can't agree with you more. I love the sound of JJ. And the launching sound it makes. Basically, any Premier LIM coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 The sound the chain on SFGAm's Viper makes as the train crests the hill. The lift hill of any older wooden coaster. The joyous screams of kids on their first big coaster. Lovely. The sound of an impulse launching. I never know which is screaming louder - the newbie rider or the LIM system. Screeching of any kind. The sound of the final brake run on the last coaster of the day. Not so lovely. EDIT: Ooh! I forgot one! I love the clicking sound of a B&M's lap bar or harness coming down.

pcw guy Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 My favourite sound are the anti roll back dogs on any coaster and the worst sound is on the bat when the brakes stop it in the station. It's a horibble sound of metal scraping against metal and huge sparks are visble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easytoremember Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 My favorite sound on a coaster is mind bender's two vertical loops. Also the roar of any B&M without sand filled track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
