  1. El Toro? This coaster has the most air time out of any wooden coaster I have been on. Not even close.
  2. I prefer Silver Bullet over Raptor or Batman the Ride. B&M invert ratings for me: Talon Alpengeist Mantu Afterburn Raptor Patriot Batman - SFoG and SFStL Batman - SFGAm (I loved reverse. ) and SFMM Batman - SFGAd Goliath Great Bear
  3. I like straight drop rides as well. Acrophobia and Drop of Doom are my favorites. Drop of Doom.... 400 feet Drop Tower.
  4. I saw a person actually kissed the ground after riding Drop Tower last year.
  5. Please no!!!!!!!!! Don't take the pole!!!!!! Well, Drop Tower is the one I ride the most. I average around 600 to 1000 rides per year. Funny that the thrill rating is only 4.
  6. They are not the same. If a ride is announced in the evening during this summer, what Don said is still true. Remember to read between lines. This is a classic PR, media, politician and court room speech.
  7. Bat, X, Hellivator ..............
  8. Corn Hole the Ride? Riders get thrown into a hole.
  9. BLSC and Flight of Fear - I had roll backs on both.
  10. Shivering Timbers. One of those rare coasters that I actually prefer to ride in the Front..... I actually like Wolverine Wildcat.
  11. No. This was his first trip to the US. I grew up in Seoul and have been there frequently. He is absolutely right. Another story: my mother went to Seoul after 20 years being in the US. She grew up there. She came back to the US and told me that there were so many cars and so many people in Seoul so that she is happy to be back to quiet place like Baltimore/Washington DC area.
  12. I was hosting a distributor from Seoul, Korea. We were at Long Beach, CA. I asked him how he likes Los Angeles. He said two things he liked most about LA was that the pollution is light and the traffic is light.
  13. Agreed. Not a Legend fan and did not care for Fahrenheit. Bizarro, El Toro, Intimidator 305 and Leviathan are my top 4 coasters.
  14. ^ agreed. That mid airtime gets me everytime. Skyrush ejector also surprised me. Outside right on the back seat took my breath away.
  15. Intimidator 305, Skyrush, Bizarro (SFNE), El Toro, T-Express, Jack Rabbit (Kennywood), Phantoms Revenge, Zeus, and Outlaw Run for the starters.
  16. Too bad. I was in LA last week. I will have to wait to go full throttle.
  17. Go where? Anyway, I will try to look at the construction site tomorrow.
  18. I think the longest invert is Montu. The tallest invert is Alpengeist.
  19. I am not a fan of Kumba. I am a fan of Montu, however. I really liked Wildfire at SDC though.
  20. Magnum is my favorite ride at CP. I am not a fan of MF or TTD but they are decent rides. I do not care for any stand ups or Boomerangs. I do not mind Invertigo however.
  21. Minnesota Vikings were known as Purple People eaters.
  22. I prefer Intimidator 305 and Leviathan over MF. To me, MF really does not do much for me. I prefer to ride Magnum over MF any day even. Then again, Bizarro at SFNE provides far superior ride than any of them.
  23. All wing coasters I rode had same restrains that were not bad, but the over the shoulder restraint system was rather uncomfortable. Gatekeeper is the best of the three I have rode so far. All three are nice and smooth rides that are quite relaxing. They are NOT designed to be intense thrill machines. I found Raptor and Batman the Ride to be much more intense than wing coasters. BTW, the most comfortable over the shoulder restraint system I found is Intimidator 305 since the modification. Firehawk one is nice, too.
