    Carowinds | Copperhead Strike | Mack Dual Launch

    This looks more promising to me than Harry Potter does. Maybe I'm weird? Harry Potter seems like it will be a bit repetitive and lacking in terms of airtime (which isn't bad for what its worth). While the theming looks incredible, I think a more thrilling coaster with some great airtime...

    Top 10 Theme/Amusement Parks

    After visiting all of my new parks for the year here is an update of my top 10 parks (I was only able to stay at SDC for ~4 hours, given more time it may rank a bit higher. I loved the park in the time that I had.) 1) Liseberg - Especially by my third day at Liseberg I knew for sure it was my...

    Least talked about coasters

    No one ever talks about Thundercoaster at Tusenfryd, and for the life of me I can't figure out why. Despite being rough around the edges, it has so many bright spots. I went into the ride expected an extremely rough wooden roller coaster with a fair amount of airtime to offset the roughness...

    The best Rollercoaster soundtrack?

    Of the coasters I've been on, definitely Helix. It fits the theme perfectly and really builds anticipation for the ride. Really everything is done masterfully to make the best possible experience on the coaster.

    Carowinds | Copperhead Strike | Mack Dual Launch

    Looks like a roll out of the station, then a launch to 42 mph in 2.5 seconds. Once it slows to 35 mph there will be another launch to 50 mph in 2 seconds. And probably a total of 5 inversions

    Top 10(ish): 2024 Edition - page 124

    After making the biggest trip of my life, (as well as a stop at SFGE), my list has a lot of changes! I visited Tusenfryd, Liseberg (3 days), Kolmården, and Gröna Lund. Coasters that I have been on since last update have a few sentences written up about them. 1) Helix - Ever since it’s...

    Liseberg | Valkyria | B&M Dive Coaster

    Well hopefully it opens the tenth! That will be the last day I’m at the park!

    Liseberg | Valkyria | B&M Dive Coaster

    Any more information yet?? I’ll be at Liseberg for the first time from August 8th-10th so hopefully it’s open by then, but I’m really starting to doubt it.

    Huh? I got back on Boulder Dash on Saturday and it only further solidified it as my number one. Most of my rides have come in 2016-2018, but I did ride it in 2013. 2013 was before I had experienced very many roller coasters, so my memory of it has faded a lot, but my rides in 2018 have...

    Your Least Common Opinion?

    How does TTD make your top 10 but Kingda Ka "isn't good". I have been on both and prefer Dragster due to the smoother ride, restraints, and overall atmosphere, but they aren't so different really! I feel as though people exaggerate the disparity between the two coasters. Honestly Kingda Ka has...

    Liseberg | Valkyria | B&M Dive Coaster

    This looks so much faster than expected! It appears that the zero g roll and overbank will both have some really good whip. Feeling so much more hopeful and excited that I could be riding this a month from now!

    Liseberg | Valkyria | B&M Dive Coaster

    I agree. Aesthetically it is perfect for the park and it does fit well with their current lineup, however dive coasters are definitely one trick ponies and especially with vest restraints are very limited in quality. I do prefer Valkyria’s layout to perhaps all other dive coasters, but...

    Energylandia | Hyperion | Intamin Hyper coaster

    Yeah but see... I never said this would be the best on Earth :) I said one of, which could mean top 5, 10, or 30. I find it hard to say that this will be "far from a great coaster," especially considering that this was the first test run. And the finale looks quite good as well, the twist into...

    I was not referring to the CF community as it is very well liked on here, however it seems that with the younger crowd on Instagram there appears to be very little respect for such a classic! As for the aging, I have ridden it in 2013, 2016, and 2017. I have not noticed that it has aged poorly...

    And that's where you're wrong.... brilliant ride. During the day it's probably my number 2 or 3, but at night it's a different beast, and for that reason it takes my number one spot overall. The airtime is great throughout the entire layout, the laterals are vicious, the roughness is just enough...

    Energylandia | Hyperion | Intamin Hyper coaster

    Not sure why people don't seem satisfied by this. The video is from the first test run, so it will speed up, which is ridiculous to think based on the speed that the first stengel dive is taken at. The first hill definitely looks like sustained ejector to me with the second large hill be...

    Liseberg | Valkyria | B&M Dive Coaster

    The issue for Valkyria is its location. They already had issues with the tunnel at the current depth due to the neighboring canal. If they opted for such a deep tunnel, which would be amazing, it would not work from an engineering standpoint due to floodwater. They may have been able to work...
