coasterguy618 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 The sound Intamin woodies make over the hills when the upstop wheel hit the track a.k.a the Intamin Fart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Another one I forgot - the duck at Hesheypark (Some of you will know what I mean - think of Wildcat). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maeryk Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Favorite? Upstop wheels begging for mercy on woody airtime machines.. love that hrunggggggggggggggg g g g g g g noise as Phoenix hits the top of the hills.. Least favorite? The noise Talon makes. Or lack thereof. It amazes me how much they did to quiet that beast, after I heard what Great Bear sounds like.. and I'm torn between whether the ride is better, because it's silent, which lets you forget the ride more, or whether it's worse, because you don't get the "in the grip of a giant thrashing death machine" feeling so much.

Golfie Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I think we can all agree that everyone loves the B&M roar I also like the sound of an Intamin ride Launching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Intamin fart. The B&M roar is so over rated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvcoasterguy Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Worst: The PTC squeal of death around tight turns. Lovely. Example: American Eagle. Stand-up trains being reset for new riders. I can just imagine a person getting his balls murdered if he was on it. Example: Iron Wolf People who click their seatbelt on B&M coasters 200 times in a row. The sound Gerstlauer wood coaster trains make... it sounds weird, like a piece of plastic running against wood. It's just weird, and doesn't sound good. Best: Buzzbars PTC trains on lifts The weird sound Premier LIM's make Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP_RULES Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I love a lot of coaster noises, particularly B:TR (@ SFStL), Mantis, Raptor, Ninja (SFStL) clinking off the lift, the roll back things on Screamin' Eagle, and the psssspsssssspsssssssspssssssspssssssss sound Mr. Freeze's brakes releasing make right before launch. Also, I like the hum of any Intamin Rocket Coaster entering the magnetic brakes. Sounds I dont like on a coaster...... ummmmmm........ I cant think of one. -Justin "Did I just list about every coaster sound there is?" Seabaugh PS- I also love the sound of woodies clanking (not the best word... they dont really clank) down the track.

Spookbaby Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Ooh Ooh! I thought of another one I like! I like the clicking noise that Mr. Freeze at SFSTL makes right before it takes off!!!! (Whoops totally didn't see the post before mine... but I'm glad that someone else like it too!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I thought of one I DON'T like. You know those really old woodies that stay in an oval shape, like SFNE's Thunderbolt. The creaking of the panels on the cars as it goes through the 180s. Yo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Sabo Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 I just got to laugh at the term "Intamin Fart". I still love working maintenance on the steel beasts and the sound is almost like music to my ears. I might need psychological help..lol B&M roar rules! (aka Kumba's flatulence).

weeow Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 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. Oh man I love that sound! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IwantRevenge Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 The sound Premier LIMS make when the charge, just that sound make you mroe nervious than the launch itself. EDIT: The wiorst sound ever has to be the Intamin Fart, god i hate that sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKlockster Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Best sounds - Top Thrill Dragster Launch Tomb Raider: The Ride (PKI) Topspin - heard while standing next to the ride during operation. Worst sounds - Son of Beast's lifthill Lift chain miscatch (on any coaster - primarily PKI Vortex) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCOSurfer90 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I love the sound of when an Intamin comes into its magnetic brakes, especially on Kingda Ka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrillrider15 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I know this might not be a coaster, but I like the sounds of a "New Generation Top Spin". It's that sound of when the ride allows the car to spin freely. That dry air gushing out. It's awsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Sabo Posted June 27, 2006 Author Share Posted June 27, 2006 I'm suprised this thread is still going..lol Well, here is another one that I REALLY love. Titan @ SFOG and/or Goliath @ SFMM The brake calipers at the MCBR & ride end (and the rollback from the lift-sweeeet!).

ParkTrips Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 My favorite is the thud when someone is ejected from the train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantRevenge Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 the sound a B&M makes when entering the station. You know that clickclick clickclick Cachink sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 I love the classic B&M roar, although most of the newer ones arent that loud. Tatsu was very quiet as was Silver Bullet, now I dont know if them being quiet has something to do with the temp., humidity, how long they are running, etc., but the older B&Ms seem to be louder, like Riddlers, Raptor, and Mantis are VERY loud all the time. I also love the smell of a wooden coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
