    This has to be one of the best theme park ranking videos I’ve seen. Not only is your list accurate, your descriptions of the coasters are so on point and will make viewers feel like they are riding them. I also like how you mentioned the good in the coasters that you ranked lower because six flags great America has such great roller coasters and it’s so hard to choose the best one.

  • @FlightPath12
    @FlightPath12 3 дня назад +2

    My list is
    1 Raging bull - only the back row gives good airtime
    2 Goliath - that first section is one of my favorites in the world
    3 Viper - there is no dull moment
    4 Superman - it offers an amazing first drop and a great positive G moment
    5 Max Force - the first launch is amazing but it’s very short
    6 X flight - the near misses and first drop are great but the seat is bad
    7 Batman - an all around intense ride but a bit uncomfortable
    8 American Eagle - it offers an overall solid experience
    9 Dark Knight - great theming and amazing airtime but too long of a line
    10 Whizzer - as my first ride it’s just a classic
    11 Demon the first part is great but the whiplash hurts for days
    12 joker - the 4d layout makes me very uncomfortable and is overhyped
    13 vertical velocity - the rides G’s are very overhyped and is too long of a line
    14 Little Dipper - solid family coaster
    15 sprocket rockets - solid family coaster

    America Eagle held the drop record from 1981 when it opened until 1988; the longest held in the coaster wars from 1978 until 2005 and the last wooden coaster to hold the drop record before metal took over in 1988. My top 5 are 5: Batman: 4: Maxx Force; 3: X Flight; 2: Goliath; 1 Raging Bull, all back car rides except Maxx Force.

    American Eagle was closed off when I went recently, otherwise I would've loved to ride it.
    Raging Bull and Demon are both high on my list, the first for its long ride and "fake" drop and the second for its unmatched personality. I was super sad to see the eyes on Demon's tunnel removed but the multiple surprises on it are still so fun. Also, nothing beats listening to the theme song!
    Goliath is a rough beast (I have bruises to show for it) so I always know to prepare to be jostled around, but Viper is pretty rough as well! Both are intense and worth it (though Goliath's sometimes 3-4 hour lines I have done enough times).
    Great video!

    (Also, with the Viper retrack and it possibly running backwards this year, this might turn into my favorite at the park. It’s already running insane this year 🔥)

    Agree with you 100% with Goliath being the best roller coaster. Incredible coaster no gaps in thrills from the first drop to the end no slow parts of the ride. Corkscrew after Corkscrew. Fast ride time wise but the best coaster I've ever been on.

    For me personally, X flight was a bit lackluster. Now I’m not picky with rides. I haven’t been on many. I’ll go on X flight, but I wouldn’t reride it more than once in a day. I would reride Superman.
    Also I absolutely LOVE Batman! Whenever I go in it, I always get sad how quickly it’s over. I will most definitely reride this. This plus raging Bull.
    I have yet to ride Goliath, V2, Viper, Demon, Joker, and Maxx Force. I don’t go very often. Maybe once every couple years.
    I didn’t go on viper or demon out of fear it would screw up my back cus I’ve had issues with it in the past.
    Goliath had a line way too long each time I’ve went and I’m guilty…I chickened out of V2 a couple of years ago.
    Joker was being fixed when I went last time and we just didn’t get to maxx force when I went last time.
    I went with my brother and sister.
    Aside from Little Dipper and whizzer which I probably went on as a kid with my dad, American Eagle was the first one I went on with friends. I was in 8th grade for the field trip and I remember it being pretty fast and bumpy but I liked it. Didn’t go on it last time tho cus scared of the bumpiness would ruin my back again.

    Raging Bull is funner than Goliath… but Goliath is more intense. The drop on Goliath is even better than steel vengeance at cedar point… however SV is still over all a much better ride. Goliath is just too short. So I’d have to go with raging bull as my top ride there. It’s the perfect ride imo.
    The rest suck imo except American eagle. That’s my third favorite.. front seat is best. Ok viper kinda of good too. So that’s 4th. That’s it..
    max force is not worth the wait. Cool launch, but disappoints the rest. Batman makes me feel sick all the time. Superman is ehhh… but why waste my time when I can get on raging bull over and over and not feel like I’m missing something. Superman has one of the slowest moving lines in the whole park.. it’s annoying. V2 makes me feel sick. Wicked twisted at cedar point was much better since it has a longer bottom trek.. so kinda gives rider bit of a retrieve. Never a fan of x flight. Gatekeeper way better. Joker is a joke, I rode it once maybe twice and won’t ride it again. Demon is just torture. F that ride. Whizzer for little kids. Dark knight is worth one ride as a novelty.
    Honestly, my visits usually consist of riding raging bull, Goliath, and American eagle over and over. Rest of ones I mentioned worth riding, only once.

Next was the Tidal Wave launch, IIRC, then American Eagle... from there the memory is fuzzy. Batman? Shock Wave? Iron Wolf? lol One of the few things I miss about Illinois is Great America, still need to get back and ride Goliath, Maxx Force and X-Flight for the first time.
