Airtime Thrills: *I'm about to end this man's whole career*
They are painful and they suck lol. Especially the one at Cedar Point. That killed my back. I rode it once and I'm never riding it again.
I felt the same with with a corkscrew at Wild Waves in Washington State just not a fun experience but as I age I end up liking the woody wooden roller coasters a lot more instead of the steel where Airtime Thrills seems to really prefer the steel. I honestly didn't think the Timberhawk was that bad but it didn't have the thrill feeling that most wooden coasters do have. in the NW we have kind of slim pickings unless you head to Silverwood in Idaho or California.
To be fair, the ones in Idaho and Minnesota weren't all that bad--he just didn't have a better pick for "worst coaster".
@@MarsJenkarexactly, I almost actually enjoyed valleyfair’s. In Ohio, corkscrew has competition for me, though, Invertigo. Those two are on my never again list.
That “Hacked By Sophie” bit was really funny

Lol my dad and I were traveling through Cali recently and when we got off Grizzly, he said we should ride in the front. I asked why on earth we would do that, and he said “so we can bring a beer on and see how little spills”

*sad Skyrush sounds*
That moment when you realize Chris has ridden more coasters in a state than coasters that are actually operating in said state 😂
Haha i think theres 3 of those. California, Ohio, and Nevada
Not only is twisted colossus my favorite roller coaster in California, but overall. It is the most airtime I’ve ever gotten on any roller coaster, my frost RMC, and I was just blown away by how amazing the layout was actually riding it. Love your vids! 😄
As someone who recently went to SFNE, I agree with Wicked Cyclone being the best. Not only was it my first RMC ever, but I enjoyed every second of it. Superman is amazing too don’t get me wrong but wicked was a whole new experience for me
I just can't agree having grown up at the park - I love Wicked Cyclone and it was a hell of an addition (especially compared to the rattly old Cyclone), but the first drop on Superman and the whole second half packed with G's just makes it such an experience - the insane helix into the underground drop, into the triple hill into the last curve to the finish is just breathtaking and always will be for me.
Not to take anything away from you - best part about roller coasters is their subjectivity - Millennium Force remains my all-time number 1 as I could ride it all day with absolutely no complaints.
@@joshc5234 I think your dissent sums it up perfectly. Some people prefer g force and others airtime. I personally like both but will always focus on rides that lift me out of my seat first and foremost.
And as it’s an Airtime Thrills video, well the name says it all. He’s biased too 😁
i agree
Wicked Cyclone is #2 of 250 for me. I loved it the day I went. So ridiculous in its layout.
Yeah I've been there twice so far this year and it easily became my new number one the first visit, and the second only solidified that opinion
I heard Magic Mountain just announced a pair of dueling coasters based on the rivalry between the Dodgers & the Giants. Its just one giant lift hill with both cars going up and up and up and up…
From Georgia, I rode cyclone when I was 8 (17 now) and I still remember how bad it beat you up and how rough it was. Rode it once in its previous form and said never again. Twisted cyclone was a great way to revitalize it and has a strong case for best coaster in the park.
Ha bro same rode it 2016 could barely walk after
Yeah it was bad. Rode it once in my early teens (don't remember the year), and swore I would never ride it again because of how bruised I was afterward. Glad to see it got the conversion as well.
i dont know about best coaster in the park but it is very good i personally think golliath is the best and batman is second batman is only my second bc of its themeing
@@trampakc530 you could go either way they provide different types of airtime but they are both world class coaster
Goliath is definitely better maybe Superman too. Twisted Cyclone is super fun though especially in the back
Re: "worst defunct coaster in Texas", Rattler wasn't as bad as Joker's Revenge. *That* was an absolute turd. Whoever thought that a Vekoma loop/screw would be better backwards was on some seriously bad drugs.
I agree that was a pile of crapsomeone shouldslapped Vekoma and asked them what the Hell were they thinking
Funny thing is that Jokers Revenge could run forwards as well, but the park decided they wanted to run it backwards. It ran backwards the 3 years it operated in New Orleans before Katrina fried it’s circuits and rusted it’s track. Ironic since the coaster model is known as a Vekoma Hurricane.
@@tigerrocks503chase8 Yeah, I always figured it could be run forwards, since it had the standard arrow trains; I didn't know it did operate forwards as Jester, though! The only time I went to SFNO was before Joker's Revenge/Jester was relocated there, although I don't think I'd have bothered riding it even if it had been there.
I went to Silver Dollar City for the first time and also for Moonlight Madness. I had high expectations for this park and it still shattered my expectations from the theming and just everything about this park. Plus the night rides on Outlaw Run, Powder Keg, Thunderation, and Time Traveler was amazing. Didn't get a chance to ride Wildfire but I'll ride it next year. Outlaw Run was shockingly good especially at night. It's a wild ride after the lift hill but also quite shaky, I could only do three rides on it because my legs start hurting due the the shin guards. Powder Keg is so underrated, from the air launch up the top hat, to going through the wilderness in the dark. Thunderation is the best Arrow Mine train, no doubt. Time Traveler was my favorite at SDC, and my 100th coaster I have done, it's a cool and amazing launched Mack Spinner, from the theming in the station and trains, to everything else about the coaster. Fire in the Hole was a fun and quite interesting ride, though I would love to ride Blazing Fury to see if that one's better. It's my second favorite event, behind Holiwood Nights. I can't wait to go to both next year!
Rankings:
Time Traveler #15
Outlaw Run #18
Powder Keg #28
Thunderation #47
Fire In the Hole #75
Glad to see TT outrank OR
My family goes to SDC every year in Branson, fire in the hole is incredibly nostalgic and such a good younger kids coaster IMO.
Time traveler is amazing though, definitely one of the best I’ve been on in the few states I’ve traveled to and literally said ‘wow’ when it was over. Its queue area and area it was placed is nice too.
Other notable missouri coasters IMO are patriot and of course Mamba.
I’m a Florida native and my current favorite is Mako, but I might get on VelociCoaster soon (fingers crossed for a trip planned for two weeks from today!)
I’m interested in your take on it as well.
I'm in the same boat as you. Mako is my favorite, but haven't been on Velocicoaster yet. I feel I will have them right next to each other on my list. Totally different rides and different experiences, but Velocicoaster has the theming and launches, but Mako is higher and still the fastest coaster in FL. The airtime will be more ejector on Velocicoaster, but I still don't think it has more airtime than Mako overall, despite what some say. But we'll see😀
@@floridamaddogg not for long cause Iron Gwazi Is Going 76 MPH
@@kyogresfunchannel 😂😂....of course I know that, but I am talking current day, lol. Iron Gwazi will take it once they open next year.
@@floridamaddogg oh
It makes me happy that you still enjoy Raging Bull just as much after your 2021 rides! The ride is at my home park and that first drop wows me every single time!
Its not like upper echilon of coasters but it rules its lane with dignity and pride
“Hacked by Sophie” that’s brilliant lmfao
Absolutely love your vids dude keep up the amazing work, I’m proud to call this channel my absolute favorite rollercoaster channel.
Thanks for the high praise 😳
Thank you for calling out Grizzly. I feel like it doesn't get nearly as much hate as it deserves. Not only is it boring but you can feel every nut and bolt on the track given by how much the trains vibrate. That thing needs to go!
What Grizzly really needs, is to get RMC’ed.
First off, the Grizzly's first turnaround is too high, so it takes it at a snail's pace. The second turn is a decent fan turn, but the third turn is poorly banked. It's basically a U-turn that is slightly banked, but it's still banked after it pulls out of the turn, making the drop a bit janky. The ride definitely needs the RMC treatment.
The funny thing is that the same coaster with one minor but significant layout change -- exiting the rosebowl OVER the out-and-back return legs rather than under them, leaving room for a double-up into the rosebowl as you go through a tunnel -- and in a much better wooded setting makes the Kings Dominion near-clone like 10 times better and a great night ride.
I have no clue what’s up with grizzly people wait in line for so long just ride this horrible ride
I actually think Grizzly is pretty smooth, but I do agree that it’s kinda boring. Even so, the gp must like it because it’s always one of the longest lines in the park whenever I’m there. And it was my very first rollercoaster, so I personally like it for that lol
Yes! My home park of Over Georgia is on the list. I like the series of best/worst coaster in each state. And completely forgot about wild adventures! I didn’t expect hooiser hurricane to be at the bottom. Nice video!
Your judgment on rollercoasters is great! Awesome video
Been waiting for this all week
Your videos are the only ones I can sit through the whole thing. Keep up the amazing content.
From NJ and I have to say El Toro is easily my favorite coaster. As I tell everyone, you don't need loops when you have El Toro. Worst coaster for me is Green Lantern at Six Flags. Just throws your head everywhere and the ride itself isn't comfortable in the least.
Suggestion: best & worst coasters from every six flags park
I got to say I'm surprised you didn't put Great American Scream Machine as the worst at Six flags Over Georgia, that thing beats you to heck and back lol
She was more than a bit rough.
As a Pennsylvanian I can agree, Phantom’s Revenge is awesome.
I really wanna go to Kennywood at some point.
same
I did get to ride the OG Georgia Cyclone, and I actually thought it was really fun
It was very good in it's prime years (90s to 2000s) but unfortunately it got very rough in it's last years
I rode it as well back in 2004. I enjoyed it more than great American scream machine
I rode it in the late 2000’s, and it was rough. All I remember about it was constant jackhammering.
@@aldoparise1224 I rode it in 2017, and I actually thought the same. I also got back to SFOG this past summer, and after re-riding GASM again, I definitely agree that Georgia Cyclone was still better. GASM was awful this year
As a native to Virginia, I personally would put I305 as the best, but Twisted Timbers is a very close second for me! Great list
I305 is a BEAST! Your butt WILL leave the seat. I loved I305 the one time I rode it. Would love to ride it again if I get the chance.
I agree with your choices for Illinois! Raging Bull was always my favorite coaster until VelociCoaster!!
AHAHAHAHA I am working on our Busch Gardens Tampa video right now and I was so mad after Sand Serpent it was so bad. What a shock- I agree with your Florida picks too!
Sometimes my favorite coaster in Utah is Jetstar 2. For just a second on those little coasters the forces seem to be extreme. And you're kind of laying in the seat with another person almost like in a log ride configuration so it makes the pain on your back in the forces seem even much greater. So it can be a fun change of pace after writing much more modern roller coasters
Jet star 2 is crazy intense
JetStar 2 is always closed though :(
Hitting cannibal samurai and rocket when the park is empty on a Sunday is unreal
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Retrack and reprofile Wildcat with Titan track to make it an amazing ride again and RMC Lightning Racer to have a Twisted Colossus of the East Coast. Hershey would still have a good woodie with Comet and they could even add a new Gravity Group or a new GCI in the future (if Hershey can ever expand or find room).
Great video as always Chris!
I cant argue with you there
I think Lightning Racer still has quite a bit of life in it left before considering RMC treatment.
@@tyler_m_sonic_merch_hunts610well we know what happens now
I completely agree with you with TX’s best coaster, iron rattler is my favorite and it still dominates to this day…though the worst coaster is NOT wave breaker, it’s extremely fun and very enjoyable, so no it’s not bad, the worst would definitely be La Vibora, how could you skip la vibora??? It’s really rough, not fun, unenjoyable and I hope it gets removed soon, other then that I mostly agree with you and this is a fun video idea
I just visited SFOT/Fiesta for the first time last month and while La Vibora wasn't a standout, I don't think it was all that bad. Also I like the novelty of a toboggan coaster instead of a traditional train. I think that one in the dark was my least favorite.
La Vibora sucks!!! IR and Mr Freeze are top 2 for me.
Unpopular opinion: NTG is better than IRat
I actually had Vibora in the top 10 in Texas until recently....i like that janky thing
@@AirtimeThrills what??? 😂😂😂 I guess everyone has their own opinion then, glad you liked it, I’m the opposite 💀
Thank you for good recognition of the Phantom
The Wild Mouse at Idlewild in Pennsylvania is horrendous. Lots of trim brakes that slam you to a painful stop everytime. The only coaster that I have ridden that I can safely say " never again".
Hacked by Sophie got me. Good work!
Great video as always! Loved the Ohio part!
Clicked that video faster than the speed force can. Good video
Love your channel!!! We're the same age range. Been a subs since you was at 2k!!!!!
Yo whats up! Love your content
Greetings from New Jersey. I agree with your picks on the best and worst roller roaster in NJ. Pirate's hideaway just feels like a box, and El Toro, kicks, major ass >:3
I was really excited to go to Six Flags Great Adventure this summer and ride El Toro, but it seemed to be a very rough track and the trains seemed to feel very out of control. Fortunately my visit was just before one of the trains derailed and the ride has been shut down ever since. I liked Nitro 100x better and also really liked the flying coaster Superman.
tough tough bad opinion
@@itzzzzman8186 You thinking El Toro is a good ride is also a bad opinion.
@@travisvanalst4698 bet
I305 and Twisted Timbers are in tough competition for best in Virginia but I have to give the edge to i305
I agree
I’d honestly have to disagree. I love i305 but Twisted Timbers is on a whole new level. However if i305 didn’t have any trims then it MIGHT edge out Twisted Timbers for me
@@soughtbug I love intensity, speed, and pacing so I305 is my favorite in the state. It also has very underrated airtime. TT isn't too far from I305 tho.
The only thing that peeved me a bit was that Busch Gardens, VA wasn't discussed at all like they have some fire coasters, even tho I totally agreed with what you said, I feel like some honorable mentions would be nice lol. I just have a soft spot for Busch lots of visits there!! Loved these videos!
Oh yeah BGW doesnt deserve to be discarded but i still don't think it has the best or worst coaster in VA
I feel bad for that one giga on Mars when Chris said SteVe was the best in the universe.
Don't forget the Intamin Prefab on Venus
Oh, and we forgot the B&M giga on mercury
Most awesome vid!!!!!!
super glad me, my family, and friends, live an hour away from magic mountain, we're going this labor day hope to ride twisted colossus for the first time in like 5 years, haven't gone on it since I was about 8, but now I love coasters, also never experienced throwing up / passing out on any coaster I've ridden.
Can't Wait for your this years top 50
I really liked this series! 👍🏼 I obviously love all the love for SFGAm too! 😂 I would have disagreed with Judge Roy Scream being dead last btw lol
I’m glad Cannibal in Utah got a shout out. Been going to Lagoon my whole life, and that ride snaps
I just got the notification and the video looked interesting so yeah!
I just road Twisted Colossus Monday morning four times in the back row & I can tell you, it was freakn wild!!! I need to ride Steeles Vengeance again because I don't remember it being better!!
Shockwave at Kings Dominion was great. The locals loved it. The only people who didn't were travelers who rode it once or twice.
As a MN, I’d rather ride Corkscrew than Mad Mouse at Valleyfair. Both rides tend to have long waits, and aren’t worth it, but Corkscrew at least has some inversions.
Yeah mad mouse wasnt that good, especially compared to the one at michigans adventure
“Hacked by Sophie”. I can’t lol 😂 😂 I’m dead 😂
Velocicoaster is awesome... surprised you didn't mention the roll over the lagoon - it may *look* like a heartland, but it definitely is not. I think its the most intense element of any coaster in Florida (and many others!)
It's called the lagoon roll and it's one of a kind
@@m_lt7597 they call it the Mosassuras roll (probably butchered the spelling), becasue the Lagoon roll is only found on Cannibal
was not expecting a baseball reference on this channel, but i see you are a man of culture and not just when it comes to coasters 😂
Sophie got me with “Puff the Little Fire Dragon” 🤣🤣🤣
08:51
Ahhh Viper, a rare defunct credit im a bit proud that I can talk about.
I remember when I was a kid and SFGAdv was my home park, I remembered I was a salty little brat who was pissed at this park that all the rides with inversions needed you to be at least 54". Don't ask me why I didn't go to dorney or hershey and ride their Schwarzkopfs at the time. But I remember seeing Viper had 2 inversions and I was complaining how the height minimum was still 54". But when I turned 8, I got my first inversion credit on Talon, but I still was curious to see what Viper was like.
Viper's shoulder pads were brutal. The inclined dive loop pressure pointed my shoulder muscle at the base of my neck. The heartline roll was also painful with headbanging. Looking back on it now, the layout is literally nothing but painful inversions, and only 2 of them. Probably the worst layout I've ever seen.
I remember GASM was more memorably painful cause of the relentless headbanging but the layout was much better so I'd rank Viper as my worst credit of all time.
I forgot about GASM, yeah that would be considered by a lot of people to be the worst. I rode it once. Didnt remember it being that horrible
I can speak from personal experience that Hellcat was a nightmare!! While in line for it with my oldest (it was supposed to be his first big coaster), a kid had their nose busted on it and it shut down for the day. I have maybe 2 credits on it, because it was almost always closed. It was pretty awful.
Now that park has been saved, maybe we'll get RMC Hellcat?! Lol. A gal can dream.
Gene Staples you listening??
As a Lagoon native, the Puff gag killed me, I'm not gonna lie! And I accept your rule breaking to put Bat as the worst in the state... it's just that bad...
I watched this with my roommates and one of them is from Georgia. He can attest that Georgia Cyclone was awful and the worst in the state. He was a bit triggered with you saying Scorcher was the worst Georgia coaster, but can certainly agree Goliath was the best!
Wow me too I'm a lagoon native! I like the spider, wicked, cannibal, and colossus.
Yeah you have to slightly bend your knees on scorcher, squatting is the make or break. And jump after the predrop.
Almost just spit out my food on that i305 hot hot hot take. Love it!
The fact that you gave the low spot to demon out of necessity and also gave big ups to the dark knight. Nice
I rode Georgia Cyclone in 1992. It was rough and awful back then, so was Great American Scream Machine. I have not been on Georgia Scorcher. Being that BGW is my closest home park, as I live 40 minutes from Williamsburg, Kings Dominion is 2 and a half hours away so I guess they're both considered my home parks. Anaconda was rough in 1992, not to mention incredibly boring and I was only 13! I could not agree more about Shockwave. I last rode it in 2013 and wow, major headache the rest of the day. But, I will say, I rode Drachen Fire back in 92, 93 and 94. I got off with my ears bleeding from my earrings back before they posted signs about removing jewelry. Yes, they actually posted signs! Big Bad Wolf was my absolute favorite and most missed coaster. Great vlog as always!
GA Cyclone must have got retracked, because I rode it in the early 2000s, and it was very good. In it's final years, it's reverted back to being very rough.
@@overbanked I'm not sure if it was re-tracked or not, but I just remember it, along with Great American Scream Machine being rough. Z-Force was dreadful and except for the headbanging, Ninja (now Blue Hawk) was fun. I haven't been to SFOG since 1995.
Drachen Fire was a... weirdly formative coaster for me, not in an entirely good way. I'd come to love Big Bad Wolf and the Loch Ness Monster, and when I went back to the area in the early 90s for a friend's wedding, a bunch of us went to BGW and found this new gigantic coaster we'd never heard of, which was Drachen Fire. Gee, why were the lines so short? It was practically a walk-on! Well, we rode that thing a few times in a row, and (a) I kind of loved it, but (b) man, it hurt. So much head-bashing. But the layout was incredibly exciting. But it led to me not riding coasters any more for many years, because I had no idea that Drachen Fire was this notorious misfire and I thought all post-1990 big modern coasters were like that now! It was deeply thrilling, but I wasn't going to ride one unless I was up to being beaten about the head. And one of the things that got me back *into* riding coasters was that I found this page online explaining the story of Drachen Fire, and suddenly it became clear that Drachen Fire was atypical.
Wildcat at Hershey Park gave me back pain, new worst wood coaster
I've never ridden the Time Traveler in Silver Dollar City, even though I've been there so much. The Powderkeg was always my favorite, and Outlaw Run is an amazing addition. Underrated park, that's for sure.
Very enjoyable video. Kudos!
Having just finally gone to King’s Dominion I’m with you 1000% on Twisted Timber’s! It was amazing. I-305 was not for me. Fun but the only coasters I repeated there were Twisted Timber’s with 4 rides and The Great Pumpkin twice because I’ve got 2 young kids. Though Dominator was great the line was to long for another go when you’ve got limited solo time at the park.
However, Anaconda was not the worst. Though while a 1 and done for life ride for me, it was fun with 1 head bang moment despite my very conscious attempts to prevent that. But racer 75 was so rough that I barely escaped without a day ruining headache. And I like rough woodies?!?! That thing either went slow or shook me so hard it really hurt. Biggest disappointment of the trip because I expected it to be fun circa Rolling Thunder.
OH MY GOD. THAT TROLL ON THE GIANTS HAD ME DYING!!!!!!
Grew up going to Hershey each summer and every year wildcat got more "wild" which is sad because it's got great potential. Storm Runner is my personal favorite in the state.
Finally someone understands me over Georgia is my home park and when ever my friends and me talk about our favorite ride my answer is always golaith it has so much good airtime in the back row especially after the down helix and the two airtime hills
so hyped to watch part 2!! excited to see what ohio has on your list as best and worse!
@Airtime Thrills I rode I 305 for the first time in mid July. I heard that the trims are painful and hit hard. Surprisingly, they reduced the impact of the trims and I got good airtime as well as the crazy G forces and twists. As much as I enjoyed the back, the front took it for me and gave it the edge for me over Twisted Timbers, even though ever so slightly. I have no problem however with you putting TT ahead of it because it is your personal opinion that matters. My family picked TT over I 305.
i305 got snubbed. And I also love TT. Rest was spot on.
I actually went to six flags over Georgia yesterday and had a great time I agree with Georgia scorcher and I could barley walk after. However I think that Batman the ride was a bit better than Goliath because the inversions were amazing but the downside was on one of the loops you stared directly at the sun because it rides under the tracks
I live really close to SFMM and Twisted is one of the most painful rides I have ever been on, I'm not sure if it's because I'm pretty tall or because I have pretty big legs but I don't enjoy it. X2 has to be my favorite there. Great video!
Wdym I305 gives insane ejector, and several moments of it actually, and ur gonna kill me for this but the airtime isn’t that far behind toro
Right?! The first airhill on I305 is better than any on Twisted Timbers imo.
I can't wait for my 2nd visit to Southern California in 3 weeks. Last time was in 2013, with only visiting SeaWorld and Six Flags. This time will be more, but also revisits.. Most anticipated coaster will be Twisted Colossus. Despite I've ridden over 220 different coasters, none of them are from RMC. With Iron Gwazi at BGT postponed until 2022, and my former home park Walibi Holland having Untamed. And just missing out by 1 year on Twisted Cyclone at SFoG. I think it's about time to ride an RMC!
Love six Flags New England, my home park. And thank you for recognizing wicked cyclones superiority to superman
yay it came out
Thanks for the dinner reminder
As for MN, I agree that renegade is easily the best coaster in the state, but I think that arrow wild mouse is worse than their corkscrew. It only provides laterals, you're sat on the brake run for like 5 minutes or more because of how terrible the operations are, and because of that the line is like 2 hours or more even if it fills just a few switchbacks. Every time I went to VF this summer it felt skippable since I had already ridden it twice. Would reccomend it for the credit and nothing else. I wouldn't want it to go though because it acts as sort of a gp trap.
Good point, i didnt think much of that mouse at all
Valleyfair: When the mouse has the longest line in the park!
No, seriously, it's awful, I've waited almost an hour for that thing when every other coaster was a walk-on.
I'm suprised that Pennsylvania has the 2nd most amount of coasters out of any state right now, but doesn't have a park owned by Six Flags.
Georgia Cyclone was very rough when I rode it a few years ago. Messed up my back for a few weeks.
I can't ride rollercoasters anymore due to my genetic disorder but I did really enjoy them and enjoy learning about them. What's funny, is my worst experience on a rollercoaster happened when I was 10 or so and it was.. The Ninja. I was shocked and happy when it was mentioned because boy it gave me a bad migraine and I was made to go on in twice in a row since no one else wanted to ride it.
I was gonna go on steal vengeons but it was closed :(, but mean streak was really fun except the lap bar was pushing into my legs most of the ride and it was very painful, so it was hard to enjoy, but other than that, it was really fun!
😡😡😡 Demon is not a bottom tier coaster! That state literally has a free spin and an Intamin Impulse.
I have V2 and Demon over Joker
I rode 2 of these coasters many years ago when both were new and have some thoughts:
Six Flags America Superman Ride of Steel - While this ride was enjoyable and smooth, it was also the most terrifying - at the station. They were running 2 trains when I rode it and while one train was in the station getting loaded, the other would hit the brake run into it going 50MPH, and the only thing I could think of was the original RCT: station brake failure. Same thing at the end of the ride - we are going 50MPH into the station with the other train still there before the brakes slam on and slow us to a stop.
And at Kings Dominion, Anaconda was only a few years old when I rode it. It was smooth - so smooth I almost fell asleep. For basic steel looping coaster, they had these ridiculous overhead restraints that kept you locked in so you couldn't feel the tiny amount of air time in the cork screw. The Gold Rusher at Magic Mountain was more exciting, and that is a family coaster I just got on because there was no line.
Love your videos couldn’t wait to see what you thought was the worst coaster in my home NYS I thought for sure you would of picked Steamin Demon at Great Escape in Lake George. That is the worst coaster and is in need of repairs or replacement.
Steamin pile was just ok, not bad not good. Predator was BAAAAAD
@@AirtimeThrills lol. Omg it’s so bad. You need a reride.
Thank you for putting Pirate’s Hideaway as NJ’s worst coaster. I just rode it a few weeks ago and I got a bruise from the mid-course-breaks throwing me super hard into the lap bar. I’m only 6’1”, but I had to cross my legs in order to fit in the car. It is as bad as people say.
My top coaster in NJ I would have to say is Nitro. It’s a long ride with lots of airtime a great track lay out and great seat restraints.
Nitro is so underrated. That was my favorite for a while before El Toro came around, and even still it’s close for me
Some of this commentary had me cracking up 😆
With SFGrA as my home park, your picks were spot on.
Raging Bull continues to blow me away and since I got to ride Diamondback this summer, I still take Bull over it easily.
Ok the flip side, Demon is still the worst, but Dark Knight is still not good.
Dark knight really surprised me
Chris, when Iron Gwazi opens, do you project that to be the best coaster in FL? Or do you think VelociCoaster still holds the title?
Isn't it taking a long time to open while other rides that were being made during the pandemic are open already? It's possible that it won't open till after the pandemic(meaning the delta variant and other variants are no longer a threat) which might take a long time to actually happen
@@David-gj9qr it’s officially been announced to open in March 2022.
I always thought IG was going to be the best but after riding Velocicoaster i dont know anymore. It may be close
@@AirtimeThrills why go to Disney right now when we got Mako, Manta, Velocicoaster, Mummy, and soon to Be Ice Breaker and Iron Gwazi.
I just went to Busch Gardens Williamsburg a few weeks ago and I love Apollo’s Chariot it is probably my favorite roller coaster second is probably The Griffin or Verbolten.
Hercules at Dorney park was pretty lousy. 1 big drop then pretty much nothing after that.
I loved Hercules as a kid. That 150ish foot drop was also filthy good and I never got the hurt your knees feelings, just intensity! Best pre lift section! So I encourage you to pick again, how about blue streak or Rollo coaster 🤔
Blue streak isnt a bad coaster, just horribly rough. Rollo coaster is actually a pretty fun family woodie
I went on time traveler last year right before Christmas in the cold and holy cow that’s insane. Espically at night
Hey man, Ninja in StL has a super cool near miss element with the chain for the lift (if you’re still conscious by then to remember it’s even there)! 😂
YES! after the sidewinder. Thats crazy
Ninja gets wayyy too much flak
I just went on Darien Lake's Predator for the first time today after hearing about how notoriously rough it was... and yeah, it's the worst coaster there for sure, my discomfort sucked almost all the joy out of the coaster.
Do you have a plan to visit some European parks anytime soon? My last credits were from Energylandia, and I was actually blown away by the back row first drop on Hyperion, it was mental, crazy ejector. I'd love to see your comparison between this and Raging Bull's ejector drop. Zadra is really worldclass btw, insane pacing, smoothness and snappy elements. Steel Vengeance would probably still take the edge for you because of more airitime, but definitely worth a ride anyways👌
I have been on Viper at Great Adventure. I didn’t think it was to bad. It was pretty forceful. The first drop was pretty good also. And the twisting was fun. Not the greatest but not terrible.
I’ve rode Ninja a few times this year and it seemed really smooth and was ok. Boss and Screaming Eagle I’ve had very rough rides on but Boss can have good and bad days since my 2 rides this year have been completely opposite with 1 being rough and one being like butter and great. Screaming Eagle was rough for my 1 ride and everyone in my party had a headache after that one but I can cut it some slack for it’s age. I’d probably go with the Boomerang at St Louis for the worst in that state since the one at WoF is fine but the one at St Louis has a few jolts and is rough sometimes
