KI Kevin Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 One second. I think somethings messed up or I'm not doing something correctly. The poll choices and questions aren't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_junky Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=17933 i put speed, because even though i love height, without it you can't get the g's or get through inversions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear the Four Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I love the feeling of airtime.It just lets your body go and be free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Touchdown Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Airtime baby, I gotta have my air time. That said, my top wood and steel coasters (Alpengeist and The Beast) are all about speed and postive Gs, go figure, the rest of the top ten are filled with mostly airtime machines though.

violakat03 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Speed. Airtime would be second, but it's a recent addiction, really just since riding Diamondback have I come to truly appreciate it. But give me speed over airtime any day. Millennium Force, Top Thrill Dragster, The Beast, Big Bad Wolf ... all are in my top coasters and are speed machines, not airtime machines. The only true airtime machines in my top coasters are Diamondback, Voyage and El Toro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 None of the above: STRONG, and I do mean STRONG laterals with violent transitions done well. See: The Georgia Cyclone Tremors, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamondback FOF Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I think we should be able to vote for more than just one. I'll get back to you with my vote, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flightoffear1996 Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I like airtime for the most part the bets but nothing can be a fast paced coaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTCO Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Speed. I love face passed rides (MF/TTD/Beast) but airtime would have to come right next to speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I can get a fast speed in my car, but I can only get airtime on a coaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 You should have driven Ohio State Route 73 in the days of old, with a car with worn shock absorbers. I have gotten mucho airtime on that road in years' past, as more than one person here can attest! Strong laterals, too! And speed! No inversions, though...and that's a very good thing.

Diamondback FOF Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I voted for speed. Speed allows you to go up a hill, get airtime, and then go up another hill. Speed gives you enough momentum to go through inversions. And speed (sometimes) allows you to go up really high. But I guess airtime would be right there with speed. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
