    Best Operated Coasters

    Industry predictions for 2026

    Why do the Chinese knock off manufacturers only copy Vekoma?

    Because, Vekoma doesn't have chinese patents on their track design. B&M and Intamin do. Oh, yeah, and The double+center tube design is easier to fabricate

    What's the best coaster you've seen and/or ridden?

    May not be the prettiest, but Gemini is still my favorite. Most picturesque is most definitely Diamondback or Millenium Force.
