^ So does White Lightning. How come you changed your mind on that coaster so much? :p

It doesn't hold up to Balder and I couldn't decide what to get rid of. I didn't really want to lose Nemesis (which could/should move up). Therefore I thought White Lightning could go.

Basically I'm a bit rubbish at my list after the top five. :lol:

Re: Top 10(ish): 2015 Edition - page 27

New #1 after 14 years! Wicked Cyclone has everything, but more importantly it lacks whatever issues weigt down other top rides (too rough/intense/bad restraints) it has a good pacing and a perfect layout. Actually perfect, I didn't feel there was a wasted moment or "odd"/weird element. Everything had a great flow to it: Hill, turn, roll, hill, crazy element, turn turn etc like each moved into the next in a very sensible way, but it was not boring! It wasn't just 3 loops of hills and turns, there was variation, the whack elements mixed in, the double down. It is one of the best layouts I've ever seen.

Needless to say, lots of airtime, all of it ejector, it throws you around a good bit, (not roughly) it is glass smooth, not crazy forceful, the hang time on the last two rolls, especially last, is brilliant. Like I said it help punctuates the ride. Really brilliant.


1. Wicked Cyclone
2. MForce
3. I305
4. Skyrush
5. El Toro
6. Phoenix
7. Bizarro (after re riding I've swapped it with Phoenix)
8. BDash
9. Maverick
10. Storm Runner
 
Re: Top 10(ish): 2015 Edition - page 27

Update after Hershey and Great Adventure this past weekend… as always new for 2015 in bold.

1. Skyrush =D>
2. Boulder Dash
3. Top Thrill Dragster
4. Millennium Force
5. Nemesis
6. Bizarro
7. Nitro
8. Storm Runner
9. Verbolten
10. Apollo's Chariot

11. Stealth
12. Magnum Xl-200
13. Maverick
14. Farenheit
15. Griffon
16. Alpengeist
17. Manta
18. Nemesis Inferno
19. Chinese Fireball
20. Hungarian Horntail

21. Roar-O-Saurus
22. Holllywood Rip-Ride-Rockit
23. Batman: The Ride
24. Incredible Hulk
25. Swarm
26. Revenge of the Mummy
27. Kraken
28. Yankee Cannonball
29. Bizarro GAd
30. Blue Streak


I never thought that Skyrush would be the one to overtake Boulder Dash, even if it was one of my most anticipated steel coasters. It blew my mind every time! It was an instant top 5 on my first ride, and as I kept riding more and more, it got better and it moved up higher into my list. It wasn't until several night rides (one of which was front row) when I realized that this was my new #1.

I'll go into more detail of everything when I do a proper trip report. Oh, and if anyone's wondering where El Toro is on my list… well… maintenance spite <////////3 :(

Re: Top 10(ish): 2015 Edition - page 27

So far, after four days of my 22 day trip, RFII fell out of my top ten after absolutely sucking today, and Wicked Cyclone is my new #3. It's sooo good but just ridiculous in the back. Boulder Dash moved up to #6.

Join the club.. hopefully this means all maintenance is done for my trip next week... will be piffed off if I get spited again...
 
Re: Top 10(ish): 2015 Edition - page 27

I found out that it had been running before my visit, so I don't know if it was annual maintenance or something. I would think that it's up and running again by now.
