Haven't really been active on the forums for a hot minute, but I've been more regularly checking lately and figured I ought to update my top list before the final 2024 list. I don't think I've posted my list since around 2021, and I've revisited a lot of coasters since then and ridden a lot of...
400- Goliath, SFGAm
Finally at 400! Insane it took four years for me to get past the 300s, but I suppose a worldwide pandemic can do that. Expect some BIG changes to my top 10 in the next few days.
Next stop 500!
I remember back in 2017 I ventured to this incredibly janky park in Panama City called Cobra Adventure Park for a +1. After a cred rejection, I bought a ticket for their slingshot since A. I'd never done one, B. didn't want to waste a trip and C. it was surprisingly cheap. One cursory glance at...

I actually visited the park this past weekend, and I can confirm that the coaster is open to the public. It's bizarrely placed at a dead end on the hill that (I believe) used to be the plot for their old boomerang. I was big fan of the park back when Rampage was newly retracked and the admission...
It’s gotta be Epcot, right? A park that opened with a fully realized concept and has slowly gotten rid of said concept. But it’s a bit harder to say which ride would be best to bring back. Bringing back Horizons could do wonders. As the sort of “thesis” of the original park, it had elements of...
Perhaps it's a bit "America-centric," but I feel like Arrow is the easy winner, for me at least. Just about every major development for steel coasters in the 20th century was under their umbrella. First tubular steel track, modern inversion, suspended coaster, hyper coaster, and wing (or multi...
Do/should mega-lites count? I'll go ahead and consider it (it's got mega in the name after all), but it's an interesting question to pose.
Skyrush: A brutally intense experience. There's no coaster in the world quite like it, which is probably the best compliment one can give a coaster...
As a New York resident, the most noteworthy park in the state I've yet to visit would be Darien Lake, along with Ride of Steel being the biggest gap. However, I think a much more noteworthy park I haven't done out of state but equally far away is more Kennywood, with Phantom's Revenge being a...
