Xx2cansamxX Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 I chose Son of Beast. Where else can you experience a woodie that is that fast, goes that high, and flips you upside down? SOB is my favorite wooden coaster, and favorite coaster at pki. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoLimits8705 Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 I chose The Beast because to me even with the trim brakes that ride is fast and I love how it feels like it will break apart at any time. The old richety ( spelling ) makes the ride even better. At night it is the best ride in the park. The Beast just amazes me everytime I ride it!

Mr. Fusion Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 I chose Flight of Fear. I love that ride! Theres nothing like a launch into darkness and whiping into a cobraroll. Pure coolness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 Ever heard of The Beast at night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elder Panther Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 I also chose The Beast. It's just a really great and scenic coaster. It's even crazier at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignathan4403 Posted July 26, 2003 Share Posted July 26, 2003 Yeah, The Beast at night is the best. I voted Beast cause Beast at night wasnt there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted July 27, 2003 Share Posted July 27, 2003 I chose FoF. The launch makes it all worth it. The coaster is really disorienting too. The first time I took my little brother on it, when we were slowing down in the hallway at the end of the ride, my brother was clenching the lapbar yelling, "Are we upside down!?". If The Beast at night were an option, I would have chosen it. The best part is the total darkness while going through the helix. -Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphz Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 I chose Vortex, adding the length of the line to my opinion. When the park is packed, Vortex is usually 20 minutes or less, and i LOVE the airtime on the corkscrews and if you make your restraints loose the airtime on the first hill.

EnterTheVortex Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 I have to go with The Beast hands down. Especially at night, nothing like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StXBomber Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 One million imaginary StXBomber dollars to whoever can guess what I voted for and why! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Pki Fan Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 Its by far The Beast. It a great classic ride and I love how it goes through the woods and takes you away from the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterKrazy Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 I gotta go with Vortex. Its got it all; airtime, inversions, length, intensity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slingshooter0607 Posted August 1, 2003 Share Posted August 1, 2003 The Beast at night should count as a whole different ride being it is a diffrent ride at night.But since that 's not on the list...I would have to go w/ F0F.I love em all but something about F0F just gets ya going..Its my first ride of the day every visit to PKI.

coasterbilly Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 Beast, that's all i have to say. World's #1 wooden coaster and the most amazing night ride on any coaster on the planet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenAmazon Posted August 9, 2003 Share Posted August 9, 2003 The Beast came out ahead because of the terrain layout, speed and long stretches, and the tunneled double helix. Did I mention night time? Even though it is ridiculously braked and has those darn headreasts, it's unarguably among the top 10 woodies out there. But man, so many ties for second. Son of Beast, Twin Racer, and Vortex are up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdudeOH Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 What more can I say. I voted for The Beast. Why? I remember riding when it opened. I was 12 and boy was I scared going up the first lift hill and hanging over looking into that tunnel. Today, it's pure enjoyment. Especailly at night, it's the best coaster for night riding.

fryler87 Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 Flight of Fear all the way...though it was a tough decision between it and The Beast (i love SOB but it gives me chest/heart pains). the ONLY reason i say this is because of the ride it gives from the front seat...its unmatched!!! i rode top thrill dragster twice at Cedar Point this year and it's the same way - the front seat is definitely the best part.

italianchef Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 Asking me to pick my favorite coaster is like asking me to pick my favorite wife. I love my wife first and foremost amongst all women and living beings. Well, I love The Beast first and foremost amongst all roller coasters. I love the duration of the ride, the quality of the ride, the hills, and the smell of the coaster, the woods, the scenery, the speed, and the adrenalin rush I get when I ride it. Sincerely, Italian Chef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanA Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 I chose Son of Beast. I love the loop, one of the best in the world, and there's so much force in the spirals. It's pretty long too, and despite it being the world's tallest, fastest, only looping wooden rollercoaster the line's really never that bad. I still think The Beast is a better ride, but I personally like Son of Beast better for it's thrills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DX8706 Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 Flight of Fear. It's non-stop speed. I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stitch Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 Son of Beast gets my vote, Speed, Height, the loop and I love the trains on it they let you feel the heavyness of them unlike the six seat Beast/Racer rolling stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darque Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 I voted for The Beast. Front seat during the day is amazing, and of course, front seat at night time (watching all the lightning bugs...whew) is even better. There is a certain quality of respect and admiration about that ride that is unparalleled. It's then only coaster that I've ridden that when you come back into the station, those waiting in line applaud and cheer your return. There is a kind of magic surrounding this ride. It takes you deep into a forest to release The Beast within yourself, and when you come out, it's total Zen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRickster Posted September 8, 2003 Share Posted September 8, 2003 I cant agree more with that.... The Beast owns it has one of the most magical feelings out of the whole park. Specially b4 paramount took over and they played queen and people would sing along like a big party Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIMMY JAMZ Posted September 9, 2003 Share Posted September 9, 2003 I chose "BEAST" It is the most awsome wooden roller coaster i,ve ever rode! I like the "edge of out of control" feel it has the speed tunnels pacing.The Beast at night was the best.I am new to PKI I went there this 4TH of july for 1 day(we were going to go to Hershey park for an extended vacation in August)But we decided to buy Season passes for PKI I think it was BEAST and SOB that convinced me to come back and I have since been there 6 days total so far and I am planning 1 more trip back for 2 days in Nov. Bringing some friends to use the "free" tickets for last weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
