It had so much airtime that my arse was hardly ever in the seat, and it was one of the smoothest rides of the trip.
Maybe I just got lucky from my lone ride on it though... :p

You did get lucky. While it wasn't rough, I only felt airtime in 2 spots.. for the whole course.

Urm actually, they are the only parks ive done in 2009 so far, and if you actually read the topic subject, it kinda makes sence.
 
Well mine may change through the year, but for now:

1. Troy
2. EGF
3. Black Mamba
4. Thunder Coaster
5. Trace du Hourra
6. Twist and Shout
7. Stealth
8. Vertigo (RIP)
9. Winjas
10. ColossOs

Gone from the list is Tonnerre de Zeus, which has simply been too sick for the past 2 years. :(

Where have you seen in this whole thread that implies it is just 2009 coasters? It is only 2009 edition because I had a 2008 edition last year.. ;)
 
In fairness, it is the best launch I have been on in Europe - not done Spain or Blue Rita yet.

Oh, and I did get 2 roll backs last year, which boosted it :p
 
CHANGE!

1. SpeedMonster
2. Piraten
3. Nemesis Inferno
4. Stealth
5. ThunderCoaster (would be ranked 2 if it still was like in the glory days)
6. Thor's Hammer
7. Extreme Racers
8. Dragon (Legoland Billund)
9. Flying Fish
10. Dragon (TusenFryd)

Subject to change this summer.
 
Probably should've done this before my first trip of the season but...

Wood:
1. Voyage/El Toro
3. Raven
4. Dania Beach Hurricane
5. Ravine Flyer 2
6. Thunderhead
7. Hades
8. Phoenix
9. Hellcat (Timber Falls)
10. Giant Dipper (Belmont)

Steel:
1. Millennium Force
2. Superman - Ride of Steel (SFNE)
3. Goliath (Walibi World)
4. Behemoth
5. Xcelerator
6. Goliath (SFOG)
7. Nitro
8. Goliath (La Ronde)
9. Apollo's Chariot
10. Maverick
 
Ghostrider, Knotts Berry Farm
Phantoms Revenge, Kennywood
Duelling Dragons, Islands Of Adventure
Nemesis, Alton Towers
Sheikra, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay
Incredible Hulk, Islands Of Adventure
Kraken, Sea World, Orlando
Air, Alton Towers
Oblivion, Alton Towers
Stealth, Thorpe Park

I'm hoping to go back to the States in July so I hope to God we stop at Kennywood and/or Knotts Berry Farm. Wouldn't mind going to Cedar Point either. Not too bothered about Six Flags MM. I used to always want to ride X2 but for some reason I've gone off the idea. I love Islands Of Adventure and Busch Gardens and in terms of UK parks I think I'd go with the coasters at Alton above all. Can't wait to see if my own opinion changes ;)
 
First, you do know that Kennywood and Knott's are on the opposite sides of America, right?

Second, you will honestly only enjoy Ghostrider if you consider yourself a jackhammer enthusiast. The real gem (and only besides the Screamin' Swing) is Xcelerator. To be honest I'd skip Knott's and do Disney if you can afford it, California Screamin' and Space Mountain are easily better than most of Knott's coasters combined. Not to mention that I found Knott's to be an utter ****hole.
 
1)Dragon Khan, PortAventura
2)Nemises, Alton Towers
3)Rita Queen Of Speed, Alton Towers
4)Oblivion, Alton Towers
5)Nemises Inferno, Thorpe Park
6)Saw: The ride, Thorpe Park
7)Stealth, Thorpe Park
8)Dragons Fury, Chessington World of Adventures
9)Roller Coaster, Pleasure Beach Great Yarmouth
10)Rage, Adventure Island


This should change after the Euro-live with some rides like Collosos, Piraten, Fluch and Daemon
 
I'm unsure with my top 10 at the moment, but I can definately see this changing later on in the year.

1. Dragon Khan
2. Nemesis
3. Furius Baco
4. Space Mountain: Mission 2
5. Nemesis Inferno
6. Oblivion
7. Big Thunder Mountain
8. Colossus
9. Air
10. Indiana Jones et le Temple du Peril
