McSalsa Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Same as the last two (go rate Beast and SOB if you have yet to do so). This time it's Diamondback. My ratings: Phenomenal, No Pain, Only B&M Hyper. Quote
McSalsa Posted May 30, 2009 Author Posted May 30, 2009 Oh, for anyone wanting to know "some other B&M Hypers" for Question 3...I haven't ridden any of these but... Behemoth at Canada's Wonderland Goliath at Six Flags Over Georgia Titan at Six Flags Great Adventure Note, Magnum XL 200 is NOT a B&M Hyper. It is a Hyper, but not a B&M. Quote
McSalsa Posted May 30, 2009 Author Posted May 30, 2009 Update: I AM KIC LOCAL NOW!!! ...and no one notices... Quote
McSalsa Posted May 30, 2009 Author Posted May 30, 2009 OK, who slammed DB with a poor rating!?!? THEN SLAMMED A "CALL 911" PAIN-O-METER! Quote
rotag Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 how on earth can you get pain from this rotag, who is fat and normally only last one round on a woodie, yet could ride this all day. Quote
paperg Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Update: I AM KIC LOCAL NOW!!! ...and no one notices... me too. ha ha ha. Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Congratulations to you both! << -- << The Interpreter...who still is << -- << Quote
paperg Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 good. no pain... no other b&ms. Sorry but I could just ride Beast or SOB all day.... DB is good. I just make sure that ride op makes the lapbar as tight as ever. One time they told me it was ok when I wanted her to put it down more, she just looked at me & said,"you are fine". EEEEEKKKKS. No I wasn't. Ok, call me whimpy... I know terpy will... Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Nah, but I'll gladly call you Tuesday for a hamburger today! Quote
Tom76257 Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Oh, for anyone wanting to know "some other B&M Hypers" for Question 3...I haven't ridden any of these but... Behemoth at Canada's Wonderland Goliath at Six Flags Over Georgia Titan at Six Flags Great Adventure Note, Magnum XL 200 is NOT a B&M Hyper. It is a Hyper, but not a B&M. Mine were phenomenal, no pain, and the only B&M Hyper I've been on. By the way, I believe you either meant Titan at SFOT (Which was manufactured by Giovanola) or Nitro at SFGAdv. Just an observation. Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 30, 2009 Posted May 30, 2009 Which means he meant Nitro, since Titan is not a B & M... Quote
Phantom Theater Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 OK, who slammed DB with a poor rating!?!? THEN SLAMMED A "CALL 911" PAIN-O-METER! Ahhh,Crap! I did that! I was still clicked on the no pain choice,and I was usinng the arrow keys and it moved it to that,and I hit ok,then realized i did! Sorry! I dont think I gave it it a poor rating though, stupid arrow keys! Quote

Yeah, I did...I also didn't realize they weren't B&Ms, though they resemble them in appearance...which is how I was tricked. Quote
KIfan1980 Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Update: I AM KIC LOCAL NOW!!! ...and no one notices... How could we not notice with you announcing it like that ... and I think McPollster would be a better name for you Oops - forgot to say. Phenomenal, No Pain, Only B&M. This is one of the few rides I could ride all day long without getting bored or feeling pain. Its addicting and I'm actually going through withdrawl right now since its been 2 weeks. Quote
violakat03 Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Phenomenal, No Pain, and somewhat better. I've ridden Goliath at SFOG (DB is way better) and Apollo's Chariot at BGE (somewhat better - AC was incredibly good). Quote
coaster_junky Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 good, no pain, and only b&m hyper. but, compared to other b&m's i'd put about the same, i really like raptor alot. Quote
DropZone99 Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Phenomenal, no pain, Better than all of the ones I've ridden. Diamondback's bigger hills (Pre-MCBR) are better than Goliath's big hills (Pre-Horseshoe.) but Goliath's smaller return hills are better than Diamondback's Small Return hills. Goliath's Helix is better than both of ours. But our Hammerhead is better than Goliath's Horseshoe turn. Overall Diamondback is better. Raging Bull can't really compare to Diamondback, except it's low to ground helices are better. Quote
TTD-120-420 Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Average, No Pain, Slightly Worse. It was over-hyped for me. After watching it grow from a pile of dirt to a giant structure I was excited to ride. I rode it 3 times in 15 minutes. The first time was suprisingly dull in the back car. I said to my cousin that it had to just be a bad ride, and that we would try again to see if it would put out. It again was pretty dull to me. The only slightly amusing ride was front seat. Still nothing for me to be excited about. Apollo's Chariot and Nitro were both better. Magnum is still the best all time though Quote
Dvo Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 I was going to say... What about Apollo's Chariot and Raging Bull? Apollo's Chariot is just as good a ride, if not better IMO. Raging Bull, however, is far worse that Diamondback. Being a longtime KI fan, I rated Diamondback as phenomenal. It's a great ride and much-needed for many years at the park. Quote
Beast79 Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 I tried voting on the poll before but for some reason it was giving me problems but I only get pure joy on DB! Quote
Raptor66 Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Phenomenal, minor pain (due to the vibration towards the rear of the train, nowhere near unbearable,) and my only B&M hyper. Quote
skaterboy22101 Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 OK, who slammed DB with a poor rating!?!? THEN SLAMMED A "CALL 911" PAIN-O-METER! Im sorry, but can you not provide play-by-play service? Quote
