BB1 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Well heres a waterpark, Soak City, 'nuff said. Anyways one is the Diamondback, a under rated ride is the Flight Deck, at least its not SOB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTheater Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Maverick, I find Mean Strek more enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanofFirehawk Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 How'bout Milleiunnum Force? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TombRaiderFTW Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Nitro (SFGAdv), Maverick, Diamondback, Top Thrill Dragster, Mystery Mine (Dollywood), Cornball Express (Indiana Beach), Phantom's Revenge (Kennywood), and Shivering Timbers (Michigan's Adventure). Each has its redeeming quirks, but I don't go crazy for these rides like the enthusiasts at large. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudecoasterman Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Millennium Force, Maverick, Wild Eagle, and The Voyage are made out to be the best rides ever but they don't really get me excited. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkroz Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Well heres a waterpark, Soak City, 'nuff said. Anyways one is the Diamondback, a under rated ride is the Flight Deck, at least its not SOB. If Boomerang Bay was your home away from home, then you simply can't find Soak City overrated. Honestly, I agreed then and agree now that there were ways to maintain the fun Australian theme and still re-invent the water park. However, it's gone a little too far now. Soak City provides the exact same experience that Boomerang Bay did in every single possible imaginable way except that the lazy river is no longer "lazy." Period. You can't absolutely abhor everything about the place just because its name was changed and fading Australian animals were painted over on a fence. You're right about one thing, though - "'nuff said." I hope you mean it! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant that some of the things said were just merely not done (in my eyes), like the new walkways one was taken out for a new one. Also the new wave pool I wish could be different (Less tubes please!) to which I wouldnt get bombarded every cycle with tubes and such, some call it "FUN!" while I just see it as over rated.

LordSkippy Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I think the Voyage is a vastly overrated coaster. About time it lost it's Golden Ticket for Best Wooden Coaster. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beastrider97 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Raven is most likely the only coaster I've ridden that I'd say is over-rated. I thought it was good for what it was, but definitely not as good as The Legend and The Voyage. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 And that's what opinions are all about. To me, Raven is, by far, the best wooden coaster in that park. By far. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdawg1998 Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 I know they're all opinions, but it makes me sad when people say that my two favorite coasters are overrated 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Don't be. One of my very favorite rides is Rolling Thunder. I think I am one of its four rabid fans! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joncars05 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I know its all a matter of opinion but my overrated coasters are: #1 The Beast (Night rides- Meh Day rides- Yawn) #2 Gwazi (My back just tighetned up because I thought of the name) #3 Montu (I think its awesome for the first inversion then after that it just seems to be designed to make people sick) #4 Raven (Only if it was about 600-800 feet longer... what could've been!!!)

Maverick00 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Any Inverted roller coaster by B&M and Space Mountain at Magic Kingdom unless your in the first seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCrypt Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 #2 Gwazi (My back just tighetned up because I thought of the name) #3 Montu (I think its awesome for the first inversion then after that it just seems to be designed to make people sick) I really enjoyed Gwazi! What didn't you enjoy about it? I didn't really like Montu that much, though. It was just very boring. Sad, too, as I was really looking forward to it, and the excitement of the theming and observing the train climbing the lift, traversing through the inversions.. But alas, I was severely let down.

It was ROUGH! haha. Maybe we just had a bad train or car or something but it was crazy rough to ride. My fiance and I rode it this past spring break and we both had to take 30 minutes after the ride to rest before we went and walked around. It just didn't work for us.

jdawg1998 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I agree with inverted B&M's. Raptor and Dragon Challenge are both fun rides, but not as fun as others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Picard Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 It seems that most of the over rated rides are within driving distance of local Kings Island fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
