Which is the smoothest coaster at PKI?

Featured Replies

I said top gun but The Racer at the end of last season (forwards) if you were in the front it felt like it was sliding on ice.

I say Top Gun, even though really now that i thought about it, PKI doesnt have that many smooth coasters. Probaly just because we don't have an Intamin or a B and M....the two smoothest IMO.

i say fight of fear because it is the smoothest/ non jerky ride .... The Vortex is smooth but so very jerky :P

lol a kiddie coaster being the smoothest, it is pretty smooth. FoF could be actually now with the lapbars, that is true.

.... The Vortex is smooth but so very jerky :P

Extra credit for Here is Trouble! I agree that The Vortex is very smooth, but for a lot of guests, especially the shorter ones, some people do have tendancies to knock their heads into the OTSRs. I personally don't have a problem with it... they only jerky part that I see is when it has the extraneouos twist of the track before the double vertical loop.

i am only about 5"1 (still growing so hopefully i will not smash my head on the overheadbar thingy much longer) so i hit my head on the sides when i forget to stifen my neck... B)

This is a funny poll because PKI really has no smooth coasters. Next year that will change.

{Sarcasm} Son of Beast by far {/Sarcasm}

Althow the Son of Beast is undergoing major design tests to make it smooth.

I voted for FoF. I think it's the smoothest and it's my 2nd favorite in the park.

Have a great day!

It's funny how the general public on here likes to talk about how Arrows are so rough, but now Top Gun is being voted the smoothest coaster out there.

Yeah, seems ironic (moronic), doesn't it. I think the GP is being spoiled by B&M and Intamin. Now, they expect every steel coaster to be extremely smooth.

I'm not so sure if you could call it being spoiled. Many people want steelies to be smooth, because most people don't like pain, unlike myself. I ENDURE pain...MUAH HA HA...

But really, Arrow certainly paved the road in steel technology, now Intamin and B&M are making some repairs to the asphalt, if you will. I think steelies should be fairly smooth to begin with, but that's just my opinion. For me, the smoother steelies let me really take in the speed and forces and scenery of a coaster. On a ride like Millennium Force, I can really take in how fast the train whips around the track because it's so smooth.

Why isn't Face/Off on this poll? I think it's the smoothest coaster in the park.

Oops.. adding it. My bad.

but Face/Off isn't that smooth, so why would you put it on there?

Completely relative.
