Best/Worst Coasters by Park Chain

[Jarrett]

Pretty self-explanatory. Name an owner (and preferably indicate which of their parks you've been to) and name the best and worst coaster they own. Should be pretty easy for new and established members alike.

Cedar Fair (KI, CP, KD, Caro, CW, KBF):
Best- Millennium Force
Worst- Flight Deck (CW)

Six Flags (SFOG, SFMM):
Best- Full Throttle
Worst- Ninja (SFOG)

Blackstone (BGT, BGW)
Best- Cheetah Hunt
Worst- Gwazi

Herschend (Dollywood)
Best- Thunderhead
Worst- Mystery Mine

Koch Family (Holiday World)
Best: Voyage <3
Worst: Howler

So if a company owns multiple parks they qualify for this thread! Post away, I think this'll be interesting!

If I discount Merlin, I don't think I have been more than to 1 park per corporation. There aren't that many corporate owned parks in Europe as there are in USA or China (a lot of the bigger ones are independently owned):

Merlin (Gardaland, Alton Towers, Thorpe Park):
Best: Nemesis
Worst: Blue Tornado or Colossus, both are terrible

Parques Reunidos (Mirabilandia):
Best: Katun
Worst: Master Thai

Disney (both parks in Paris):
Best: Rock'n'Rollercoaster
Worst: Indiana Jones

Blackstone/Sea World (BGT):
Best: Kumba
Worst: Gwazi

Universal (USH):
The only one ridden: ROtM

Six Flags (SFMM):
Best: X2
Worst: Superman

Compagnie des Alpes (WH):
Best: Goliath
Worst: Condor

Can't think of any other companies I've done with more than one park. I've never done a Herschend park, so that's the only notable one that's missing off the list I think (out of ones that have parks in Europe and/or North America)
