NewDay420 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Which coaster in your opinion do you think was the most liked and well received in its inaugural season from The Vortex era on?

PKIVortex Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Vortex still holds the record for most rides giving in its inaugural season. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I would give that to SOB it's first few seasons. If you are talking longevity I would say FOF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 I think Banshee and Diamondback went over slightly better for their openings than SOB, especially considering the B&M coasters weren't having downtime issues like SOB had. SOB would be up there along with Firehawk and Flight of Fear. Top Gun was fair, and bottoming out I'd put Face/Off and IJST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 My answers were more for the Paramount era.. I guess I didn't state what I was thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsislandfan1972 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 My answer is going between Diamondback and Banshee, but leaning more towards Banshee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProdigyRider Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Diamondback. Banshee had a very brief amount of downtime on Opening Day while Diamondback was very smooth in operations. Diamondback is also the favorite ride to a lot of people ever since in opened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuxedoman52 Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Banshee never seems to have that huge line other coasters like FoF and Firehawk do. Really sad, but great because I can ride it as much as I want. I waited 3 and a half hours for it opening day, and wouldn't doubt that my waits since then combined on the other 27 rides wouldn't sum to 3 and a half hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even on busy days I know I can get a ride or two on one of the "top 3" since Banshee is so great at capacity. The older I get, the less patience I have for lines. I love the coasters but refuse to wait past 20/30 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calakapepe Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 I believe it still gets tons of people. If I'm not mistaken, it just has rather fast dispatches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gannersdaddy Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Banshee does have fast dispatches. Sometimes too fast, in my opinion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
