I was expecting my home park Six Flags New England to be somewhere in the middle of the list and it is. You're absolutely correct that the two best rides are certainly outweighing the supporting ones. Enjoy hearing your thoughts on the parks.
Admittedly I haven't been on every coaster at either Magic Mountain or Great Adventure (neither had their RMC single rail open when I went, and El Toro was (shocker) closed all day at GAdv, and at Magic Mountain, even with a Flash Pass I couldn't cram in every single coaster in one single day) but Great America is underrated here. Raging Bull is my top Six Flags coaster, Goliath is shockingly good for how they fit it in the Iron Wolf plot of land, X Flight has the tightest clearances of any US wing coaster, admittedly American Eagle was better when it dueled, and hopefully they get it fixed soon. Viper is a very solid wooden coaster, the best one Six Flags ever built themselves, even Demon was pretty smooth the last time I rode it in 2021.
Great video! I enjoyed watching! It surprised me you had Great America at #3. I think I'd put Magic Mountain at #1 if I went to the top 3 parks on your list.
Good job! As a NYC resident, Great Adventure is my home park, and I've visited La Ronde, America and New England, and you were pretty spot on each park!
Saying the restraints on WCR is a bigger issue than it is on Skyrush is a crazy hot take! I don't have a strong opinion on restraints just pointing it out
Well....I've only been to Great Adventure, Magic Mountain and Great America ...so I thoroughly agree with your top two!😅..Going to Georgia in a couple of months
My rankings 1 Magic Mountain (its actually very close between the second park for me but since they have a deeper supporting lineup I prefer MM) 2 Fiesta Texas 3 Great America 4 Great Adventure (every coaster except El toro and medusa are overrated) 5 Over Georgia 6 Over Texas 7 St Louis 8 America 9 New England (best 1-2 punch in america but the rest of the lineup is mediocre so much so that I put America's lineup ahead of it) 10 Discovery Kingdom 11 Darien Lake (its closer than you think between these two but darien lake has no answer for joker) 12 La Ronde 13 Great Escape 14 Frontier City
I love your rankings because they just make sense. My dream is that great America would get that ultimate intamin or something that would just be amazing but they are land locked and have to fight with the very far away airport in height restrictions. ;( oh yea then there’s salim who doesn’t even like coasters and is doing nothing but making six flags just there. Ugh
@@ThemeParkAvenue runaway mountain is criminally underrated that's for sure! One day I'll mosey on back to my native home park and compare it to the juggernauts I've experienced the past two years (Kings Island, Cedar Point, Knott's, and Magic Mountain).
I thought magic mountain would be no 1 but great adventure is just stacked because magic mountain has more coasters but great adventure has every good coaster but green lantern is not good at all my friend got head ache after going on it
Word of advice. When talking about the coasters dont edit videos of coasters u arent talking about into the segment. If your talking about goliath, showcase goliath. Makes it so much easier to follow your video and understand what you’re saying
I’d move Six Flags Over Georgia down a spot for their ride ops’ passion for stapling riders! Just visited SFOG for the first time last weekend and was shocked by Twisted Cyclone. It’s the first RMC that I didn’t watch a POV before riding so I had no idea about the layout and only knew that most enthusiasts consider it a bottom tier RMC. It’s probably just the fact that my expectations were completely out of whack for both rides, but I honestly enjoyed my 1 ride on Twisted Cyclone (despite being stapled worse than I’ve ever been before) than my 2 rides on AeriForce One (I’m middle aged and the quad down at the end really ruins the ride for me. The first drop and truss dive turn are both mediocre as well. Everything between first 2 elements and finale is top tier though!)

Thanks as always
So happy to finally find someone giving Kingda Ka the love it truly deserves!!!!
You know it! That ride is truly the be of the best.
@@ThemeParkAvenue that’s my number one of all time tied with Dragster (very sad it’s changing but I understand)
You know that Scream at SFMM has a bad reputation amongst enthusiasts when even Theme Park Avenue doesn’t like it that much.
Lol, even by love for B&M didn’t save it
It's nothing special but it's clearly not as bad as people say. Goliath on the other hand...
Is Scream like Medusa at SFDK? I skip Scream when I go to SFMM assuming they are clones.
@seanthompson1980 it's a clone of Medusa at SFGA. Medusa at DK is a slightly different layout but they're all pretty close
@@seanthompson1980 Medusa is much better in every way.
That sound track is beautiful
I’ve liked it for a while.

Great America does have underrated roller coasters for sure, even if it didn’t get the top spot.
Great video! I enjoyed watching! It surprised me you had Great America at #3. I think I'd put Magic Mountain at #1 if I went to the top 3 parks on your list.
Great America is awesome even if it’s roller coasters are not number one.
@ThemeParkAvenue Yeah, I see. Thanks for the Reply!
I agree. Great list!
Thanks!

Thanks! Glad you have such an awesome home park.
Saying the restraints on WCR is a bigger issue than it is on Skyrush is a crazy hot take! I don't have a strong opinion on restraints just pointing it out
It is a hot take but I’ve always felt that way.
Well....I've only been to Great Adventure, Magic Mountain and Great America ...so I thoroughly agree with your top two!😅..Going to Georgia in a couple of months
Cool that we have the same top two for sure. Hope you enjoy Over Georgia!
I'm going in the 5th... wish me luck😅. I'm not saying it's bad but I hope it's good.
My rankings
1 Magic Mountain (its actually very close between the second park for me but since they have a deeper supporting lineup I prefer MM)
2 Fiesta Texas
3 Great America
4 Great Adventure (every coaster except El toro and medusa are overrated)
5 Over Georgia
6 Over Texas
7 St Louis
8 America
9 New England (best 1-2 punch in america but the rest of the lineup is mediocre so much so that I put America's lineup ahead of it)

We’ll hope for the best for Great America’s lineup
Great list!
I have some video critiques that I’d like to share privately. Is there a good way to reach you?
I wasn't expecting over Texas to be as high as it was. I guess having it as my home park for 18 years made me think way less of it.
That is likely. I also just find so many of their rides to be underrated.

You got a find a way to get on wonder woman it’ll shoot you up to number 3 in the list
I hope I do.
I thought magic mountain would be no 1 but great adventure is just stacked because magic mountain has more coasters but great adventure has every good coaster but green lantern is not good at all my friend got head ache after going on it
Magic Mountain is pretty great for a thrill seeker.

Tbh Silver Bullet is better then scorpion

I think I disagree with every ranking you made, but I enjoyed hearing your views.
My channel in a nutshell.
4:44 Ninja is a Vekoma not Arrow
I believe it’s a mix of both. I’ve always thought of it as an Arrow looper but you’re right that I shouldn’t have said that.
did u go to michigans adventure?
I did
I hope over georgia is high.
For the sake of not being hunted down, me too.
wait how was mindbender painful
Every turn and transition was jolty.
X2 is the #1 ride!

All fair thoughts. Thanks for watching!
Twisted Cyclone deserved better despite being the shortest RMC ever built.
Kingda Ka should move to SFMM with all the other good coasters😭
