Hey I posted something else about The Beast but the people who replied didnt give me what I wanted! So can you tell me what the ride is like,is it fun,what do you have to ride to work up to The Beast,and what is your favorite part and seat of the ride! Thanks to every one who replied to my last post and to every one who replied to this one!

Ummm - OK. So you make a topic - and people don't help the way you want - so you make another one? Way to go...

What is The Beast like? Yes it is fun. And yes it is cool. Way too cool for you.

URG!

What do I do to prepare to ride The Beast?

Well during every offseasson I run 2 miles every morning for cardio, watch my vast collection of roller coaster DVDs so I can practice holding my arms up(really helps with endurance) and I go sledding down big ice mountains so I can pay respect to roller coaster heritage.

I find that this routine has been quite effective in preparing me to ride The Beast every year... Then again you could just get in line and ride it. Your call

I don't think anything can really prepare you for The Beast just get on it and ride it? Have you ridden any other coasters in the park? If you can ride Vortex you can ride The Beast.

I love you too!

Have fun on Beast - it is an amazing coaster.

sit in the very back and raise your hands up, its really fun goin down the first hill and be ready for some awsome tricks The Beast does im goin on thursday so im all ready to ride everything.

I love the double helix if you ride on the right it feels like it will take your head off

Ok...? Your a very strange person! LOL

Thanks every one

The Beast is long, fun, out of control. Good airtime in certain spots. Great finale with the double helix. I have rode probably every car and I don't really have a preference. If you can stay until close, get a night ride. It is really dark out there in the woods and seems to go faster.

I really like the front seat on either side because you see the track in front of you and you get plenty on physical air in your face, if the conditions are right the front will make you cry

I agree. Riding "The Beast" at night is a great way to end your day at the park.

And I prefer the front seat of any roller coaster. ( the front seat is highly unique on "Expedition Everest" at Disney's Animal Kingdom ) And if I can give some advice. While you are going through the double helix don't look straight ahead. Instead, look to the right. You can see the trees fly by you through the gaps in the tunnel and it looks like some kind of unnatural strobe. Very intense. Also, it has only happened a couple of times that I have seen, but if you can get "The Wave" started from the front of the train to the back. That makes the lifthill more fun too.

i have a good tip for you though! If you are short, on the second hill brace yourself. Because it's a little rough entering the helix.

Well sit in the back. Dont hold on and prepare for one heck of a ride.

I heard the best does a triple corkscrew followed by a half loop/corkscrew with 5 loops in a row. Is this true? if so i must REALLLY prepare for it dot dot dot

I think thats Vortex dude!

Quickwind is referring to The Vortex. If I'm not mistaken, Son of Beast is the only looping wood coaster in the world.

i'm actually being insanely sarcastic. . . hence the dot dot dot.

Ok. Please use the smilie when being sarcastic. I try to do that so people are not confused.

The Beast is overrated. Plain and Simple.

It seems to be a darn sight more reliable, popular, less expensive to maintain and even more comfortable than its son.

Perhaps that is why it is so sad. Parents are always upset when their kids don't turn out as well as they hoped.

The Beast is overrated. Plain and Simple.

So is that guy Sparky, looks arent everything I guess.

I'm overrated? What?..Either way, The Beast is still overrated. Give me the Screechin Eagle any day. A far superior coaster. Sadly, not in operation.

^I feel for the screechin eagle with you, and I was kidding about you being over rated, I'm a big fan of your posts on here. We met once I think.

The Beast is overrated. Plain and Simple.

*GASSSSSPPPPPP*...*cough...cough*...*gets out inhaler*...Now don't you feel bad for making some poor kid have an asthma attack?

Let me answer this one for Sparky: "No."

Well, gee. Thanks for the sympathy

Well said Combat.

Make sure you hold on at the end or your arms will get chopped off. Blood is yucky.
