My passion as a roller coaster enthusiast is what got me into travel, and over time i’ve started to gain appreciation for the states and countries that these theme parks are located in. This has developed into an interest for nature, which is now just as much of a priority for me as visiting theme parks. Subscribe if you’d like to join me on my travels :)

      Yup that defently improves the ride my favorite position is the the middle of the last car. If it wasn't for one painfull bump it might even be the best woody ive done so far. Not a big fan of woody's but this one is at least in my top 15 overall and the counter at the moment is 700 creds so ive done a few (f i count the powered, water and mountain coasters its 800).

    Six Flags Great Adventure has an epic collection of roller coasters and flat rides. I enjoyed my trip a couple years ago. El Toro was insane, Kingda Ka was amazing, Jersey Devil was solid, and all the B&M’s were as expected. The only thing that sucks about this park is the ridiculous loose article policy. However there are rumors they will start adding free lockers to some of their coasters which would be amazing.

    Nitro is a sneaky hit. You got Ka and Toro on that side, after that it's the DC Comic Coasters, then the focus goes to Devil, but then you remember Nitro is there. It's like, oh yeah, this ride is cool too. Killer ride line-up. The Houdini House is pretty trippy too.

    I feel like I'm an outlier for liking the roughness of El Toro lol. For me that's what makes it special though I am biased since I'm from SE PA so the first experiences I had with wooden coasters were at Knoebels and on El Toro so I may have gotten accustomed to El Toro's bumpiness early on.

  • @coasterconfusion305

    Sad this trip is over, I hope you can go on more soon because I love watching these vlogs.
    Also I have an opinion on Jersey Devil, I rode in the back row early in the season last year and I found it pretty smooth and just an overall fun ride. It would be cool to experience the Intamin single rail coasters to compare it too, Jersey devil is the only raptor I’ve ridden.

    Nice clipp again. Done this park a couple of weeks ago (haven't done voyage yet) but Diablo is defentily my number 2 woody so far comes really close to wildfire. If it didn't have that painfull hop i think where they mated the repair work it might even rival that coaster. Everyone keeps talking about that airtime hill and nobody about the twisted second part and in my opnion best part of the lay out (although the first drop isn't to bad either). Except for inverts this coaster has literrly everything.
    As for Kaa, its just a launch and a drop those kind of rides will never make it high on my list. Don't get me wrong it is an increadable experience and everybody should do it at least once. But its to much of a one trick pony for me. Now if they would have done some twist and turns after that hill it wouldn't even have to be really good lay out then yes it would immideatly jump into my top 10. But as it is now maybe in the 20 to 25 earia.
    As for Nitro nice coaster if you want a nice relaxing ride its great, but how do you gray out in that thing? it might be the less forcefull hyper i ve ridden. Very relaxing and soothing and still lots of fun but graying out??.
    I do prefer the raptor way over Nitro even with trains (and yes i completly agree with you after acouple of rides on it i need a break because my hips cramp up from the seating position).
    And i also agree with you that the operation where unlike any other Six flags park. I could have believed it was a cedar fair park in that regard. Must say overall i thoroughly enjoyed this park. I think i like the atmosphere of Magic mountain better. But coaster wise this is the best six flags park i've done so far.

    Cant really speak on the topic but from where I have been ( Europe) Energylandia is a no brainer for beat 1-2 punch. Now that I also rode a little more rollercoasters, including rides Germany, Turkey, Benelux region (including ride to happiness) I can say that Zadra sits comfortably at the top maybe even 50% above second place Hyperion the more I think about it. That ride is just perfection. At first I was weighing if Hyperion was better than Geforce but after a while I just came to the convlusion that height and speed just does matter. Nothing really can compare to the first drop of Geforce but otherwise Hyperion is just the better ride PLUS its higher and faster. So to put it simple, if I want to rank rides I just ask myself: If only one of those rides could exist, which one would it be? And the answer to that always has to be Hyperion. Using that method I came to. This top 10 after riding coasters in Europe this Summer excluding Spain and Scandinavia, France and Northern Germany ( Kolossos, Schwur des Kärnan)
    1. Zadra ( warmed up not comparable to anything)
    2. Hyperion
    3. Untamed
    4. Ride to Happiness ( Not the biggest Spinning guy plus if its close I will give the edge to coasters with bigger stats)
    5. Geforce
    6. Taron
    7. Kondaa (Yep Im team Geforce on that)
    8. Goliath
    9. Black Mamba
    10. Lost Gravity or Wodan
    Unfortunately Fly was closed when I visited Phantasialand but yeah.. Im also revisiting Holiday Park tomorrow so I will see if Geforce has any chance of climbing higher but Untamed and Hyperion are just Juggernauts. Well thats it for now but I have to say I am more than excited to ride all the rmc‘s there are now that I got to experience Untamed and realizing that Zadra wasnt just a one of and they all seem to be that insane. Rmc really did a marvel with this model. Allthough it doesnt really threaten Zadra it looks like the ibox models are just so clear of the rest that its really the state of the art for rollercoasters, in my opinion at least. ( And also after riding Goliath I just have to say old intamin is something else^^)

    Great Adventure gets some undo hate for sure. I unfortunately haven't been able to ride Jersy Devil or El Toro as both were closed both times I've been there. But Kingda Ka is frigging awesome, I actually prefer it to TTD, mostly because of the setting being so much better for Ka. Love the bamboo and the fact the ride is hidden from view. You feel more wind in your face,the launch is so forceful that it's insane. I love Ka!! Nitro is definitely better than Apollo's Chariot (horribly underwhelmed by it honestly)
    Candymonium vs Nitro is a rough call. I love the Helix way more than the fountain drive by but that sideways airtime moment on Candymonium is just so cool.
