TTD- Short but like nothing else I have ridden in terms of sheer joy to ride
Millenium-A bit overrated but fast and a lot smoother ride
Valravyn- Love dive coasters, super smooth, some great twists and turns and a nice airtime hill near the end
Maverick- A lot nearer the uncomfortable/ Intense line than SV
Gatekeeper- Not as enjoyable as on my first visit but still enjoyed it more than SV as its nice and smooth with some good near miss elements
Whew.....
*takes deep breath*
Gotta give it to you, that is a truly uncommon view. I mean MForce hey I could see it, Maverick sure. TTD kinda weird but OK. Gatekeeper > SV? Valravyn > SV ???
What were your issues with SV? I know some others have commented that while a great ride it can almost be toooo much, but unless I misread you seem almost underwhelmed by it?
The only way I was underwhelmed was in the sense I expected to love it, I couldn't wait to get on a RMC like that ( travelled over 3500 miles for the second time in a year to get on it). It was so intense almost to a fault. I like rides like Maverick and El Toro which are somewhere around the intensity to discomfort level but this was well past that.
A lot is on the restraints for me as they put constant pressure on my shins and quads even after multiple rides and trying to make slight adjustments in my position but to no avail. I can see why some people rave about it, if you like things a bit rough in life I'm sure you will love it but for me I don't go to theme parks to be uncomfortable and to essentially get beaten up by rides, I go to enjoy myself and though there are bits of joy to take from the ride especially the first drop its just not enough to balance out the rest for it to get near the top of my list.
