Smoothest coaster?

Which coaster provided you the smoothest ride experience of all?

For me it'd have to be Griffon @ Busch Gardens Williamsburg (riding it last year in June). I personally recall the ride being extremely smooth - there are no particular memories of even a single bump or rattle. I'm not sure a coaster could actually get any smoother.

What's your smoothest coaster?
 
For some reason. Space Mountain at Disney World was smooth as **** for me. Well, at least towards the end of the ride. It was almost as if there was no track at all. It was an awesome feeling.
 
You must have ridden a different ride than I did. That ride vibrates terribly every time I've ridden it.

I'd have to say SheiKra. Must have something to do with the Dive Machine trains. Disneyland's Space Mountain was also butter smooth when I rode it.
 
That was my second time riding it. The first time, it vibrated like crazy. But the second time, it felt like a completely different ride. It was so smooth.
 
I can't remember off the top of my had but I know there's been a few rides that have been silky smooth and felt like you were floating. :)
However Bandit is NOT one of them. :p
 
Millennium Coaster at Fantasy Island. It's a Vekoma and it inverts, but the entire ride feels like you're sitting in an arm chair dozing in front of the Queen's speech in a mildly drunken Christmas haze (with all the disappointment that follows the build up to the day).
 
I think Patriot wins this one for me. Not once did I get any headbanging or feel any kind of vibration. That thing just glides through the layout!

Agreed. That zero-g-roll was spectacular too.
 
^It was THE best zero-g-roll I've ever been on. :)
 
Intimidator, while not the best coaster, was very smooth when I rode it. Mind you, it was brand new, so it should be freakin' smooth, but whatever. As far as slightly older coasters go, Nitro was silky smooth last season when i went :D <3
 
Space Mountain at Disneyland is the first that comes to my mind, in fact since it was so smooth was part of the reason I rank it higher then the one in Paris.

Apollo's Chariot and Talon rank up there in smoothness for me as well.
 
Disneylands Space Mountain was smooth too. But, something about Disney Worlds SM just amazed the **** out of me.
 
I find that flying coasters are very smooth, I have been on Air and Manta and find both were very smooth.
 
Definitely Black Mamba! That's the only coaster I've ridden where I couldn't feel a single vibration! The whole ride was like riding on smooth glass :)
 
^Agreed about Raptor! Although I disagree with caffiene demon on Colossos!

Shock at Rainbow Magicland is smooth.
