    What is your top coaster on your bucket list?

    I think Hakugei tops my list...something about the color and location, lol. Is it bad that I wanna do the "light of revenge" on mushrooms, at night? Knight Valley's "Wooden/Mountain Flyer" looks like fun. Ride to Happiness has to be mentioned as well. I could go on for about another hour

    Coasters that made you feel nothing

    For whatever reason, Diamondback at KI seems to hit the airtime hills too slow for me. It's gorgeous and big...I get it. Even in the very back, it seems to tease more than deliver. Nitro, too. KI Fan - lol :mad:

    Which existing/under construction coaster is the most likely to become your next #1?

    Brings up an interesting thought I daydream about at least once a week. What would be my top 20 if I had endless resources and time to just go. Changes every time, lol. For my taste, grouped together for what I think would be closest in appeal: Velocicoaster/Taron/Toutatis Gwazi/Zadra/Hakugei...

    WDW Magic Kingdom | Tron Lightcycle Power Run | Vekoma Motorbike Coaster | 2023

    I always associate Monsanto with the ride I thought for sure "was gonna wreck my life permanently". I was 5 or so, but it scared me pretty good the first time I rode it.

    Most surprising coaster addition ever?

    Surprised no one's mentioned The Raven yet. HW had the vision and balls to see what MIGHT come next. One could even say just by building it, they spurred a lot of small parks into the "build it and they will come" mantra we've been seeing over the years.

    Rank your Ridden B&M Inverts

    Montu, Fire Side Dueling Dragons, Alpie, Raptor, Banshee, (The one @carowinds), Ice Side Dueling Dragons, BM Clones (4 I've ridden), Talon, Great Bear, Patriot? WOF? Forget it's official name - Once I get across the pond(s) it'll change. Haven't been to Knott's in quite a while, either.

    JoshC. goes to Great Adventure...but does he have a Six Flags Day? Pt2

    I have the same trepidation/angst driving London traffic for the trip I have planned as a first timer. So I was thinking Stansted and driving English country side until got a feel for the differences, then relying on public once it was time for London proper. Just thinking about it kinda makes...

    Do Inversions "do it" for you or is it meh?

    I mean...that's my take as well. Just curious as to why so much emphasis on it is all

    Do Inversions "do it" for you or is it meh?

    I did a quick search for threads of this nature. So apologies if it was covered a while back. I'm really curious as to wow factor, "you gotta ride this" type of sentiment. For me, personally...The only inversions that "insert palapatine do it meme here" do it, are Superman clones. Stalls are a...

    Your Coaster Years

    I'd be here all night, so Reader's Digest Condensed version: Born in 67, so Cedar Creek Mine Ride 69? Gold Rusher 70? A whole bunch in between including Soap Box Derby Racers (only 2 lanes, though) An whatever I rode before the world wasn't facing a new crisis every five minutes. Think Twisted...

    Does the “comedy roast” have a future?

    For me personally, life got alot better after being comfortable in uncomfortable situations. Embracing it. Sadly, this is a skill that has gone by the wayside in favor of participation trophies and hovering parents. Throw in a "whine" society and we get the results of a generation(s) of weak -...

    SeaWorld Makes $3.4 Billion Offer to Acquire Cedar Fair

    All I do is track money, sentiment on companies, and where it's going. There's A LOT of money headed to FUN and SEAS as of 10:04 this morning. "Someone always knows" is a thing - leads me to believe that there's some credibility to this rumor, but we'll see.
