4. Walibi Belgium Intamin mega
5. Intimidator 305
6. Fury 325

11 Juvelen , very curious about this one so a notable mention outside top 10.

Mostly an Intamin fan.
Fly MAY be good but I'm not so sure. I just don't think it would beat the ones in my top 10. I hope it will though.

At this point given not a lot of parks had successful openings in 2020, let's be honest: anything not Cedar Point or Kings Island.

I'll play.

So, I didn't want a list which just matched the Golden Ticket Top 10. So each of these has a reason:

1. Time Traveller - Silver Dollar City - It just looks so different. Every video of it that I've ever seen, the forces look so unique and something that you can only find there (well, for now anyway)
2. Dinoconda - China Dinosaurs Park - from everything I've read its the goldilocks of the 4D Coasters, hitting that sweet spot between the experience and the forces. Plus its a proper bragging cred, one that few have bagged
3. Magnum XL-200 Cedar Point - When I was about 12 or 13 the Big One in Blackpool was built, beating Magnum's height record. And for a short period I was obsessed by it
4. Matterhorn - Disneyland Anaheim - Been there twice, it was broken down twice. This cred will not continue to elude me!
5. Do-Dodonpa - Fuji Q - Surely one of the most bonkers rides every made. That acceleration looks just insane
6. Flying Dinosaur - Universal Studios Japan - I do love a flying dinosaur and this looks like its the ultimate in that regard
7. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind - Epcot centre - Part Roller Coaster, part dark ride. The Mummy and Escape From Gringotts up the road that Disney simply has to do better than. Its difficult to see this being anything other than awesome
8. The Voyage - To restore my faith in woodies after being so disappointed by Wicker Man
9. Taron - Multi launch. Good. Totally immersive theming. Good. Quick transitions and the feeling of intense speed as it weaves in and out of trenches. Good. What is not to like?
10. Steel Vengeance - Cedar Point. Because lets be honest, if you've not been on it, this has to be on your list right?

TIme for an update as my last was 3 years ago, but for simplicity's sake, I'm keeping it European and in some kind of preference order...

Zadra (& Abyssus) - Energylandia
Twister (& Monster) - Gronalund
Valkyria - Liseberg
Wildfire - Kolmarden
FLY - Phantasialand
Taiga - Linnanmaki
Raptor & Oblivion TBH - Gardaland
Heidi the Ride (& Sillynamecoaster) - Plopsaland
Junker - Powerland
Halz uber Kopf - Tripsdrill

Hoping to hit up 3 of that list this year.

Apparently I hadn't posted in this topic.
So many to choose from but from a quick review in no particular order:

Hyperion
Flying Aces
Colossos
T Express
The Voyage
X2
Lightning Rod
Fury 325
Mind Bender (Galaxyland)
Wildfire
It appears I haven't done this in a while. I have now done Hyperion, Colossos and The Voyage, hooray! 🎉 Should have also done X2 by now but I guess we can't have it all.

So here's the new list with new additions in bold:

Monster (Grona)
Kondaa
Velocicoaster
Taiga

Flying Aces
T Express
X2
Lightning Rod
Mind Bender (Galaxyland)
Wildfire (Kolmarden)

Big new Intamins generally always enter the bucket list and Monster looks like a intriguing compact B&M invert throwback. I have booted Fury 325 because it was mainly on there to see what the fuss was all about and have replaced it with Taiga which fits my tastes better and somehow was missed on the original list.

A slightly less conventional to do list...

In no particular order:

1) Hit #150 before the end of 2022 (35 to go; the catch is that I must use public transport for almost all of them)
2) Ride 'Euro-Mir' at Europa Park before the end of 2023
3) Get my #200 on a Schwarzkopf (85 to go)
4) Survive and conquer a solo non-England theme park trip
5) Do a 2-3 day short holiday at any one park
6) Ride a CCI/RCCA before it closes down
7) Ride the same coaster at least 13 times in one day, breaking my current record of 12 rides on Stealth in one day
8) The Ride to Happinesss
9) Taiga
10) Helix

1. Fury 325 - I wouldn't say I adore B&M Hypers but this looks like their best coaster by a considerable margin.

2. Velocicoaster - I love Taron. And dinosaurs are cool as ****.

3. Ride To Happiness - It looked interesting but the rave reviews have peaked my interest.

4. Lightning Rod - And Dollywood in general tbh.

5. Voyage - Was so close when visiting Kentucky Kingdom but couldn't squeeze in a trip to Holiday World.

6. Top Thrill Dragster - Was spited big time.

7. Taiga - Again, Taron <3

8. X2 - Hopefully in 2022.

9. DC Rivals - Unrealistic as I'm not likely to ever get out there.

10. T Express - As above but who knows.
