For me it's the zero G roll inside the supports on Steel Vengeance. I believe it's the third one. It feels like it's gonna keep rolling forever and there's an element of handchopper.
Hey CZ, you like rollercoasters too?
Well i never was in america but i think my fav.inversions are 2 and its Zadra zero-g stall its so amazing feeling with lap bars and no supports under you and its really lond and the second its The Smiler sea serpent roll its smooth it pushes you in to seat and then you turn left up and do a dive loop what can be better? (Zadra its inversion 1 and on The Smiler 9 and 10)
@@humptydumptyup yes he does
Wow didn’t know you loved roller coasters! I love your videos
You gotta do a crossover between coasters and your usual great horror vids
As someone who hasn't left Europe, Ride To Hapiness' flying snake dive is my favourite. It already inverts on the way up, and you never touch your seat throughout that entire element. The ride's Jojo roll is my second favourite inversion, especially in the front row. You feel yourself almost sliding out of your seat and it is awesome.
I'll forever love the double corkscrew on Vortex at KI. Into them right after the midcourse. You CRAWL through them. Also, the ending corkscrews on Farenheit. I'm not sure if they're some kind of decreasing radius or not, but the whip coming out of them is excellent. Honorable mention to Alpengeist for having the best Cobra Roll ever made.
Fahrenheits corkscrews are pretty awesome i admit
Vortexs corkscrews were really good with GREAT hangtime. I miss old Vortex. Im VERY lucky to own a piece of its track rail! RIP Vortex. I'll always miss you. 1987-2019
Montu's batwing (especially in the back), Iron Gwazi's death roll, and Pantheon's Zero G Stall are among my favorites
Montus batwing gave me a minor concussion in the back but it was so intense I was fine with it
I love to see the Caroline's representation! Afterburn has 2 of the top 5 inversions at CW, the Batwing and the last corkscrew. I know the batwing is two inversions, but I count it as one element. The other 3 inversions are the CHS JoJo roll, Nighthawk loop, and Flying Cobras cobra roll. The last one is so fast and intense going forwards, but going backward it gives great hangtime to the front and back. FC and NH are 2 most underrated rides I've been on, along with Dragonflier, which I found to be miles better than FCE at Dollywood.
*Carowinds
@studio732jrl2 Not to mention that new GCI they've been due for years. Great top 8 when those coasters come, IMO. Maybe Carolina Cyclone could stay around with some new Vekoma trains with vests.
I like the zero g roll more than the stall on pantheon
I'm surprised you didn't include the Pretzel Loop on Tatsu, considering how often we've heard you discuss its intensity.
Either way, great list. Just found your channel and have really enjoyed every video
I'd say that intensity on your back isn't necessarily the "most fun", I'd enjoy it much more if I wasn't on my back.
He hates that element it pulls to much g's he said and its to intense for him
remember he is old
@@fllippers4799 Is right. See his best and worst elements video.
@@fllippers4799 hey only i am allowed to call myself old
It is crazy intense but i dont really find it enjoyable
Steel Vengeance’s zero g roll is incredibly underrated and extremely powerful! X2’s last raven turn is insanity but Velocicoaster’s Mosasaurus roll is my favorite
X2's last raven turn is insane but not in a good way
Yea I like that one
Everything on steel vengeance is the opposite of underrated
@Adrians_films so guys velocicoaster is my favorite coaster! - you
@@Adrians_films its an underrated part of the ride
Flying Snake Dive on Storm Runner, The Pretzel Loops on all B&M Flyers, the Roll-out on the defunct Volcano, and the batwing on Montu, the Norwegian Loop on Fahrenheit, and the Immelmann on the Great Bear (which is honestly the most underrated Inversion in my opinion. It is absolutely fast and intense), are my personal favorites.
Pretzel loops are intense man!
I'm a huge fan of that slow zero-g roll on Banshee at Kings Island. Awesome list as always brotha! 👍🤘
I agree that the stall on Twisted Colossus is my favorite. An underrated element I would've put somewhere on the list is the butterfly roll, in particular the one on Banshee. Honorable mention to the now defunct one on Great American Scream Machine.
The inverted top hat on the Mr Freeze coasters is so awesome. For me I’ll never forget being blinded by the light following the launch out the building and then by the time I could see anything I was already halfway up the hill leading into the inversion, and the tight radius makes it very forceful. I wouldn’t put it in my top 5 or anything but it’s pretty awesome.
Sky Rocket's first inversion is truly an underrated gem! I call the feeling "ejector hangtime"
That's a perfect description
Thank you for the love you have shown to Sky Rocket. With all of the negative reviews I have read, I wonder if they rode the same coaster as I.
I can’t imagine what new inversions we will have by 2030, as technology and coaster layouts evolve rapidly
We haven't even seen Camiel Bielsen's top hat yet
@@revimfadli4666 I haven't heard of that element. what would it be like
@@jumpydashgd4699 it's like a top hat except the entrance and exit cross over one another, and one (the entry I believe) twists the "wrong" way like Kingda Ka's drop
Storm Runner’s inversion is insane, it feels like it just keeps going. & maybe i haven’t been on enough coasters but i love Bizarro and Jersey Devil’s dive loops lol
Love seeing Sky Rocket on the list, but in the same park - that first drop on Steel Curtain is just plain weird. I love every second of it
Love the love for skyrocket. That inversion and the drop of the mid course are insanely underrated
I’d say my favorites are the mosasaurus roll, the zero g roll on mine blower, alpengeist’s cobra roll, and pretzel loops on B&M Flyers. Haven’t ridden anything on the west coast though so I bet the inversions there are insane too
Mine has to be the zero G roll on Nemesis, all the blood’s still in your feet after that helix and you’re right into that. I’m not prone to greying out but it gets me 50% of the time.
Agreed
It pulls some insane g’s on the elements. It’s super intense that ride
@studio732jrl2 Funny, it's usually us who feel jealous.
I mean seriously, you guys have so many epic coasters and the tallest coasters in the UK is a pretty bad Arrow Hyper. Hell, we have absolutely no "airtime" machines.
This is fine 😢
Agreed ! that Front row left is the best feels like ur gunna smash into the station
You missed Steel Vengeance's best inversion, the final one. It is the only inversion where half the riders lose track of which way is up. That's what all inversions should do and only one succeeds.
I didn't think the rolls inside the structure were all that special but ill have to pay extra close attention next time
Also that first loop on Manta is absolutely amazing and is my personal 2nd favorite coaster at the park. Number one being Mako
Copperhead Strike’s jojo roll is my all-time favorite element! It barely beats out SV’s outer banked turn.
Also, I was kind of surprised that Banshee’s in-line twist wasn’t on here. For what I’ve ridden, I’d say it’s noteworthy. Banshee’s zero-G roll is also great.
Yeah the last twist on banshee could have been on here
One of my favorite inversions is the vertical loop on Superman the Krypton Coaster in Fiesta Texas. Coming off the quarry wall on the first drop into the huge vertical loop is incredible.
I’m surprised Fahrenheit’s Norwegian loop didn’t make the list. The way it banks out before whipping you the opposite way into a super intense drop is incredible.
The mosasaurus roll on the Velocicoaster is insane!
FAX TO THE MAX, THAT ROLL CANT BE REPLICATED OR BEATEN, HE MUST OF PASSED OUT DURING IT, I DONT BELIEVE ITS POSSIBLE TO SAY ANYTHING BUT THAT ITS THE NUMBER 1 INVERSION.
The Drachen Fire loop on Steel Curtain at Kennywood. Highest in the world, which looks even taller due to or position looking down the river valley. While not forcefull, its freaky.
Some of my favorite elements is the Zero G Stall on Jersey Devil and Pretzel Loop on the Flying coasters. Absolutely love them!
As a hardcore Kennywood fanboy, I’m conflicted as to weather I should be happy about one of our coasters getting top 2, or be disappointed that you like skyrocket more than steel curtain.
The SC stall was the best part of the ride but it still wasnt a top tier element for me
I still have fond memories of graying out on Shockwave's loops at Over Texas
Every time for me
My favorite for sentimental reasons has to be the double loops on the accurately-named Double Loop at Geauga Lake. It was my first inverting coaster and while I'm sure it was all kinds of Arrow janky, it was mind-blowing as a kid, and it's not like there were a lot of other options in 1982. And the first time I was able to ride it was near close when there was nobody in line, so they put us through three times in a row.
Next favorite was everything on Raptor, since that gave us something inverting at Cedar Point other than Corkscrew.
That was my very first steel coaster! Man, you just brought back some great memories for me. Thanks.
Same, that was my first inverting coaster as well. I was so scared of inversions but I finally did that and the confidence went straight to my head and I immediately went to dominator and the rest was history.
haven’t been on much like maybe 20 coasters but Alpengeist’s Cobra Roll is legit one of the must unsafe feeling inversions you twist to hard going into it and quite hard out of it so ✨magical✨ honorable mention like Anaconda’s Double Corkscrew since I’m not that tall currently I lift about 2 inches 1 inch? up on the corkscrews and it’s w e i r d
I love the Incredible Hulk’s cobra roll, Montu’s loop, Kumba’s corkscrew, and Mind Bender at Six Flags Over Georgia’s loop.
Velicocoaster’s 100 ft long zero g stall is my fav. I went in blind and thought the train would whip back (like RMC’s often do), but it completed the roll and I already couldn’t breathe 😂
Arguably better than the Mosasaurus roll
@@AirtimeThrills Do you think Maverick's heart line roll will ever be re-made? I don't know if a track can handle that much stress; I thought Velocicoaster's Mosasaurus roll was Intamin's second try.
@@benallred8465 if the forces back then we’re to much for someone then how would they not be today
I'm kinda surprised Mystery Mine's ending didn't make the list. Incredibly unique and personally the best inversion I've been on.
True, that could have definitely made the list
I was getting worried you weren’t going to mention twisted colossus, but you clutched up big tim
I agree with nighthawk’s loop at Carowinds. The ride gets a lot of hate, but that loop about makes me gray out every time especially if you are in the back row.
The "Death" roll on Iron Gwazi would have made your list. The ride as a whole is incredible, that element is perfect
You’ve obviously ridden more coasters than me… with the exception of one trip to Bush Gardens Williamsburg and some Disney, I’ve only been to Cedar Point - I live about an hour from there.
That being said, I’m a fan of Raptor, Millennium Force, and Maverick’s inversions, and missed them here, but like I said, you’ve obviously ridden more than I have.
Raptor will probably always take the cake for me, though. Maybe because it was my first “real” coaster, and the first I rode with inversions.
I should also say that I don’t think I’ve been there since, at least 2012, and haven’t ridden anything newer than Maverick.
Mines probably the Flying Snake Dive or the corkscrew on Time Traveler! Love both’s change of direction.
The mosasaurus roll on Velocicoaster is definitely my favorite of all time, dont think ive ever felt more like i was gonna fall out of my seat on any other coaster.
My favorite inversion is the heartline roll on Maxx Force. It takes that inversion so fast, and it is insane. It left me speechless on both rides
@studio732jrl2 I haven’t done either yet, but I hope to find out how good they both are this summer
@studio732jrl2 I’ll try to remember that
Commenting here because I want to see y'alls opinions in the future when you post them (so they appear in my notifications). Don't mind me lol
@studio732jrl2 That would be cool!
@aidanrgagalski I’ve always heard it’s a heartline roll, but that also works
That full throttle loop is sick and of course tatsus pretzel loop
Mystery mines finale is fr underrated
Pretzel loop, I just love that crushing force
Iron Gwazi's death roll skyrocketed to my number 1.
Shockwave at Drayton Manor has a *stand-up* zero G roll. It's impressive, esp in the front.
Buy or sell Magic mountain gets rid of scream and replaces it with a dive coaster
Jules from the uk here just thought I'd let you know that I'm looking forward to seeing your vids more and more so congrats on the channell the content and keeping me engrossed everytime my phone tells me there's an ATT VIDEO READY FOR A VIEW... SO Again THANKS JULES
@1:24, The "Star Platinum Roll." ^^
Since I got back into coasters, I really enjoy the Pretzel Loop on Superman: Ultimate Flight. Also, the Wing-Over on the B&M Invert "Batman" clones are pretty intense.
That first drop is my favorite part of Ultimate Flight, dumping you over that hill headfirst hanging under the track feel so intense to me.
My all time favorite inversion was the third one on Tas's Texas Tornado at Astroworld. It was so forceful and violent. But I'm also an Anton Schwartzkopf fan boy from the disco area and Germany.
For me it’s the 3 in-line twists on colossus I fell out of the seat and onto the reastraints
Mine is the “dive loop” on Railblazer. It feels more like a airtime hill up, then a dive drop.
Waving the people under me while upside down on the Top Gun stall is the reason TC is in my top 3
My favorite and I’m so sad it didn’t make the list is kumba’s hell roll. It just tries to rip your head off
Happy to see stalls as your #1, I agree totally! I would have put Mystery Mine twist/dive loop instead of Big Apple or El Loco.
My favorite inversion is a toss up between the first loop on Shockwave and the second loop on Shockwave.
what happened to sandy’s blasting bronco? super strong LSM backwards acceleration w LSMs all the way up the first inversion - now THAT was amazing…also im a sucker for regular B&M floorless zeroG rolls
Probably twisted colossus stall, gatekeepers dive drop or steel vengeance zero g roll after the step up
Excellent Research and Analysis, Tks a LOT!!!
Aight man imma be honest, I watch your videos to scream at my monitor since we have very different opinions. Keep up the good work
Have you ever tried a Maurer Sky Loop? That inversion with lifthill is insane...
Sky Rocket #2 baby!!! Most underrated coaster
we need an "all-time favorite straight track"
It's not my favorite inversion (the Death roll on IG is too good when it warms up), but the cobra roll on Alpengeist is always one I look forward too. The whip is almost too much to handle sometimes and I love it for that
You have to get on Iron Gwazi ASAP. It’s such a good ride. The death toll is insane. I’m kind of surprised you didn’t get down here for the media event. I agree with everyone about the zero g stall on velocicoaster being pretty epic.
I had a roll back in full throttle about 6 years ago on Halloween
Mosasaurus roll is definitely my favorite
Tatsus Pretzel Loops is far and away #1 for me. Honestly feel like my other favorite inversions arent even in a similar tier.
I really feel like I'm going to die in that pretzel loop 🤣
@@06sti360 its the best lol
I have to agree with you on the zero g stall on steel vengence being the best inversion on the ride. You must seriously hate Banshee though. I personally love the zero g roll on banshee. It seems to crawl through it, after trying to rip your feet off the whole ride.
I actually love banshee, if one inversion was gonna make the list its be the last one
My favorite inversion on any coaster is the Larson Looper at Six Flags America
Full throttle is my #1 inversion BY FAR
Incredible element
Surprised not to see a Tatsu element somewhere in the top 30. At the very least I would sub out the Viper corkscrews
Definitely biased since it’s my home park, but I love the Loch Ness Monster interlocking loops
All time classic
SLCs double barrel roll near miss is insane. If you're not head banging. It's so cool.
My fav coaster at cedar point is Raptor because my Family never got to Frontier Town.
Hey chris, I have a video idea. It’s where you rank parks that have a great first-drop duo. Its basically where a park has two coaster with really good first drops (like a first-drop 1-2 punch.) An example for what im talking about would be something like Cedar point: Steve and Maverick. If you could do this vid, it would be awesome!
btw I hope SFgam will be on there if you do the video.
Interesting idea to consider, thanks for pitching it
@@AirtimeThrills anytime
Tatsu pretzel loop and twisted colossus zero g top gun stall are my fave
The banshee in-line twist
I would have put the Flying Snake Dive higher but I respect it.
The Barrel Roll drop on Twisted Timbers and Alpengeists Cobraroll
I think we have the exact opposite opinions of Velocicoaster. I thought overall it was overrated and overhyped as a whole, but that Mososaurus roll is my all time favorite inversion.
suprised montu's batwing was on here, but not banshee's pretzel knot
I'd have to say my favourite is the Quadruple Barrel-roll on Colossus at Thorpe Park
Inversion:
Roller coaster clickbait videos: it’s a loop
What about the ending on mystery mine? Thats a great ending.
Alpengeist cobra roll back seat trust me it’s insane
my favorite inversion is the loop on steel vengeance you take it at so much speed
I don't have a favourite I havent been on mant inverting coasters besides the Alton Tower, Thorpe Park and maybe another I can't think of.
I don't know how you include the zero-G roll on the Velocicoaster over the top gun stall inversion on that ride. You're upside down for a while, you don't see that kind of inversion too often. You see zero-G rolls everywhere though, pretty common inversion.
The stall is really good but didnt stand out as much for me but the roll on velocicoaster hits different because of how flat it is
The cutback on Twisted Timbers is so forceful, along with most of that ride. I love it. And Pantheon's hang time stall is my favorite part of that ride. Like you I also love Inverted coaster inversions with Great Bear, Alpengeist, and Banshee coming to mind. Another memorable one is Dominator at Kings Dominion. That's a pretty big loop and it feels like you're up there for a while.
I think looking at this list we can safely say that Premier Rides knows how to make a damn good inversion
The end of flight deck looks like the start of nemesis
My favs are: zadra's stall, untamed's stall, trth jojo roll and flying snake dive👌🏻🔥
I’m surprised you didn’t include the stall on jdc, out of the 3 stalls I’ve done, that was my favorite and definitely the best part of the ride
@juiceboxer100 i really do. But i agree the stall was the best part of the ride
@juiceboxer100 I wouldn’t say that but yeah I do think Chris underrates it a bit
I’ve experienced a roll back on Full Throttle’s loop. Right at the top! It was amazing!
Based on this list I think you would love nemesis at Alton towers
Given your inclusion of a few of these dive loops, I'm surprised not to see the barel roll and dive loop finale on Mystery Mine. I think the execution there is a bit better. That said, you do hit the brakes too quickly after the dive loop is over.
For me, I always enjoy a good Schwarzkopf circular inverted loop. They just feel different in a very good way. I especially like the loops on Shockwave and Mind Bender but New Revolution will always have a special place for me as it was my first inversion as a kid in the 90s.
I agree with Mystery Mine.
Do top 10 launches!
My all-time favorite inversion type is the Cobra Roll dating all the way back to Drachen Fire. So, my favorite inversion ever is the Cobra Roll on Alpengeist. Kumba's is really good as well as Raptor's, but Alpie's is just more intense. Never have a rough ride no matter what seat but the back row just rips through this inversion. Great list though.
Alpengeist is such a great coaster. The first drop and the Cobra Roll are definitely the highlights on that coaster for me.
I actually enjoy Cannibals Dive loop more than the Lagoon Roll.
I prefer the lagoon roll because it's more consistent in all seats but on the right side the dive loop is my favorite inversion on cannibal. Wicked zero-g roll is even better imo
The Top gun stall is by far the best element on any coaster I’ve been on
