Titan Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 The Racers Why? Because I've rode them over 150 times. Quote
IndyGuy4KI Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 The Racers Why? Because I've rode them over 150 times. What made you want to ride it 150 times? I picked DB because of the line speed, restrains, air time, and the awesome number of drops. Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 Diamondback, why? Because it has a lot of sentimental value to me and its just a fun coaster to ride over and over again. And its the coaster Ive rode the most... Quote
LongliveKingsCobra Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 I've ridden The Racers 150 116 (I had to find my topic to remember the exact number haha) times in one day no big deal or anything. It was for Coasting for Kids Last year....Oh beilieve me...i felt it the next day! Quote
Titan Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 What made you want to ride it 150 times? It was the only ride that didn't have a long wait. Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 How many of these what is fav. coaster at KI topics are we going to have? Quote
LongliveKingsCobra Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 ^Most likely a million... 150 times in 1 day? Quote
Titan Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 150 times in 1 day? Yes, I rode The Racer 150 times in a day Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 The Beast, because I've ridden it more times than Don Helbig has ridden..... uh, ...the Space Shuttle Seriously, it's more fun for me now because there is always that 'first-time' coaster rider who freaks out at the top of the lift hill. Never gets old. Quote
Tanna Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 The Beast, because I've ridden it more times than Don Helbig has ridden..... uh, ...the Space Shuttle Seriously, it's more fun for me now because there is always that 'first-time' coaster rider who freaks out at the top of the lift hill. Never gets old. I still freak out at the top of the hill. It's a steep drop into a tunnel that, from the top of the hill, I can cover with my thumbnail. I'm always anxious during the lift part of the coaster- it's like being in the dentist's chair, but the ride makes it worth it. Quote
HWBeast1039 Posted July 19, 2011 Posted July 19, 2011 The Beast. The anticipation as you go down the hill into the double helix is simply amazing. Quote
rotag Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 i have 3 mindbender @ sfog its a Schwarzkopf & its fun for me lost coaster of superstition mountain @ indiana beach this ride used to be a dark ride the cars let you ride forwards or backwards theres NO seat dividers there are a bunch of small airtime bumps & it makes a lot of tight turns that are fast but not too fast the raven @ holiday world there is a swoop by a lake there is a hidden cliff feature it goes through the woods has a tunnel @ top of the hill, i can see the parking lot & jokingly go "I CAN SEE MY CAR FROM HERE!!!" has a decent amount of airtime there arent any trims the station architecturally looks good Quote
The Interpreter Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 rotag: Two things: The topic is your favorite ONE coaster at Kings Island. You are starting to scare me. I think we may have the same taste in coasters. Terp, who thinks Raven is a legend of a coaster, well worth the voyage. Quote
rotag Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 its hard to separate steel from wood, & the classification of coasters that double as a dark ride are in a category all there own. @ least in my book, also i dont need to go 70+mph around a parking lot to have fun. im all for the scenery & unique experiance that you can only get more than once ina blue moon by living close to said attraction. just glad to know there are others that enjoy my taste in amusement. also, didnt see the part about Kings Island...

The Interpreter Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 Again, kind sir, we agree. I have often wondered if I'd adore Tremors so much if I lived 20 miles from it. And now that the Georgia Cyclone is so handy to me, why have I only been to that park twice this summer? Quote
spitfire Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 Diamondback, because it's such an adrenaline rush. I still get that nervous excitement when I ride it. Quote
TombRaiderFTW Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 Honestly? Since Beast is running rather poorly this year in my opinion, I'd have to say Adventure Express. Seriously. Quote
bkroz Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 My favorite roller coaster at Kings Island is Flight of Fear. And second, the Backlot Stunt Coaster. Really! Quote
Magm&MForce24/7 Posted July 21, 2011 Posted July 21, 2011 ^ I have to agree with you on that Backlot Stunt Coaster isn't a bad ride as i really enjoy the effects and dodging the police cars, plus it was my first launch coaster. Also i've had a coaster obsession with that ride before... My List : 1. Son of Beast (if only it was open..) 2. Flight of Fear 3. Diamondback 4. Beast 5. Backlot Stunt Coaster Quote
Dieseltech20 Posted July 21, 2011 Posted July 21, 2011 Vortex. I love the gut punch the first drop provides. Quote
Elkman Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 The Beast, it seriously cured my neck pain today when I rode it. But maybe not such a good idea for the future. Quote
BavarianBeatle Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Since it's past or present. my favorite is The Beast in it's original form. I cherish the memory of being 9 years old and waiting in line by the lake waiting to ride the biggest roller coaster in the world. It w as something that was just really special to a kid that age at that time. Especially after my sister and I had saved up trading stamps for those KI tickets. Quote
BeastForever Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 The Beast. To me this is the most sentimental roller coaster ever. Truly unique and built by our very own Kings Island (KECO) with no duplicates built anywhere else. Also, this was first major coaster I've ridden when I was only 6 years old. And of course this longest wooden rollercoaster doesn't get all of it's fame from "sentimental value". It's the fun bumpy ride through the woods topped of with a sick double helix finale that produces the other half of the "buzz". Quote

KingsIslandJonasGirl Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 What Is YOUR Favorite Roller Coaster At Kings Island And WHY Is That YOUR Favorite? (past or present) It would be Runaway Reptar. It was my favorite since I was alittle girl. It will be my favorite for forever and always Quote
diamondhawk Posted August 22, 2011 Posted August 22, 2011 I love Firehawk but you know, the line is terrible. 1. Diamondback 2. Flight of Fear 3. Firehawk 4. The Beast 5. Backlot Stunt Coaster Quote
coasterfanatic83 Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 The Beast. No doubt. Especially at night. Quote
