Best Intamins

I have only ridden 4 because im a pauper and cant get the US ones :p
my list goes:
Th13teen
Stealth
Colossus
Rita
 
I've ridden the 5 in the UK, plus Baco. Can't believe there's only 5 of them in the UK, never really thought about it though.

Difficult to rank them, I'd say Baco was the best I've ridden but if I was to say which I'd want to ride again it'd be Thirteen. So with that in mind.

Thirteen
Baco
Shockwave
Rita
Colossus
Stealth
 
Of what I've been on, Skyrush and El Toro are the best. They're my top two, with Skyrush just barely edging out Toro.
 
Intamin can certainly build amazing prefab wooden coasters, hypers and mega-lites. I've also yet to experience a launch better than the Intamin hydraulic ones.

The rest of the Intamin rides seem to be hit and miss. Sometimes they'll produce something amazing, sometimes they'll produce a rough or unreliable piece of crap.

Edit: I'd forgotten about the half pipes. The throughput on those must be terrible, but they're great fun to ride.

No love for Juvelen? ;) I thought it was a lot better than Piraten and since you have Jet Rescue on your list I would assume you would love Juvelen as well! :--D

1. Furius Baco
2. Indiana Jones (DLP)
3. Colossus (TP)
4. Stealth
5. Rita
6. Th13teen
7. Shockwave (DMP)

I thought you quite liked the launch. Isn't a brilliant launch enough to not completely hate it, especially if the rest of the ride is only like 20 seconds long? Is the rest really that unbearable?
 
I forgot to give an honorable mention to Supersonic Odyssey, that is one of the most impressive rides i've been on, considering it's built indoor.
 
The Important Ones:
1) El Toro
2) Skyrush
3) Storm Runner
4) Maverick
5) i305
6) Millennium Force
7) Superman: RoS (SFA)

Middling Ones:
8) Farenheit
9) Disaster Transport
10) Top Thrill Dragster

Ones I couldn't care about:
11) Kingda Ka
12) Wicked Twister
13) Possessed
14) Volcano

I had a girlfriend once that liked to tickle my nuts for a few seconds before beating me unconscious with a baseball bat.

While that was preferable to Baco, I still don't list her anywhere other than the bottom of my list of shags just because she did the best nut tickling ;)

Yes, the rest really was that unbearable. From the first turn to the brakes, it was like being back in that bedroom and hearing the fateful words "I've coming to bed, and I have a duck feather and big Bertha, get the Savlon ready..."
