KIRules! Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Out of all the roller coaster you've rode in your life, which is the worst you've been on? Mine is the Mean Streak at Cedar Point. It's too rough. 1 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Mean streak has gotten tolerable actually. I give it usually one to two chances per year, this year it wasn't bad, still just only tolerable, not thrilling, but it is tolerable. Worst for me is probably going to be Mantis...I love the ride, layout, and standup, but the restraint comes close to my head and I can't avoid hitting the side of the OTSR in the final inversions. First half before MCBR is nice, love it, but that end makes me have to sit out of riding rides for a little bit. No leg pain or anything though... 2 Quote
RideWarriorAP Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Son of Beast with the loop. Now I will say this, SOB was an awesome ride but that ride would beat you up bad! I went on it for the first time in 2005, and my back was in pain for weeks. I enjoyed the ride when the loop was removed and the new trains were added. Vortex, Corkscrew, and Blue Streak are on top of my list as well. Quote

I have not been on that ride in 2 years, I always get a major headache after. I avoid it as much as possible. Quote
coasterfanatic83 Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Corkscrew (sorry devariouseffect) or Invertigo. Both give me headaches every single time. Quote
RailRider Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Drachen Fire. While horribly painful it holds a found memory in my heart. 12 marathon rides and I thought I had a concussion afterwards. 1 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I've only ever ridden the best coasters, so this qualifies as the "worst of the best" in my opinion: Flight of Fear. I mean it's a cool concept, and the launch is fun (to watch), but not being able to see where I'm going is something I'm not much of a fan of, so I've never been able to enjoy the experience. It's one I've ridden so that I could say I rode it. One time. 2004. That is all. Quote
Bennett Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 SOB. Hurts just thinking about riding it with the loop. A close second is Vortex. Even in 5-1. 1 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Omg...Bobs...fun but it did beat the **** out of you, didn't even think of it Quote
SupremoSteveo Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 SoB w/ the loop. I'm glad I got to experience it, but afterwards I felt like I was on the losing end of a boxing match. 2 Quote
zombieninja Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 For me, The Hurler at Kings Dominion. 1 Quote
jcgoble3 Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I don't believe I've ever ridden a coaster that was truly bad, but there are a couple that were boring. Those would be ShieKra and GateSleeper. 1 Quote
kjkjkj Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I loved Son of Beast and am glad i got to ride it with the loop and without the loop! It was my first coaster with an inversion way back in in 2000! I would say my least favorite coaster would probably be....Mean Streak at Cedar Point. It is just plain boring to me. 1 Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 The Roller Coaster At New York New York Casino. Truly terrible, looks so wonderful. Isn't. Runner Up: Ninja. Six Flags Over Georgia. Not even close to the worst, but far worse than the rest I've ridden. 4 Quote
LordSkippy Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Time Warp at Canada's Wonderland immediately comes to mind. It was extremely uncomfortable and, quite honestly, it felt like a death trap. If we're talking about most disappointing coaster, I'm gonna say Maverick. It just doesn't do anything for me except give me neck pain. Quote

Not even close to the worst, but far worse than the rest I've ridden. And when I was there the Roller Coaster was $25 a ride. Togo or not Togo... 3 Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 I'd gladly pay $25 NOT to ride it. Desperado it ain't. 2 Quote
Vortex Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Voyage and SOB. My last ride on the Voyage I had a bruise on my back. 1 Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Diamondback at Frontier City, hands down.That would be Diamond Back. Diamondback is at Kings Island. Did you also try it hands up? 4 Quote
DJSkyFoxx Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Wild Beast at Canada's Wonderland. I found it to be incredibly rough, shaky and just overally a terrible ride. I knew just by going up the lift there was going to be a bad ride ahead. And to top it all off...my poor cousin had her "chest pieces" pop out of her shirt because it was that bad... Thankful for her, there was no camera to take a shot of that... Quote

The Interpreter Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Probably didn't try the front seat. I feel the same way about all the other rows. 1 Quote

Ride On_17 Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Mantis by far. I don't experience the "guy problem" or the headbanging, but it hurts my legs and it makes me nauseated. Standups are the only coasters that I truly hate. 6 Quote
Rustbucket Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 If we're talking about most disappointing coaster, I'm gonna say Maverick. It just doesn't do anything for me except give me neck pain. WHAT?!?! I was not impressed with Maverick either. When they stopped the light show, this coaster really lost its charm. 1 Quote
