Maelstrom.
Other close contenders are Rush, Slammer, Samurai and Vortex (provided you get the top on each high swing).
S'about it so far. Everything else has been enjoyable, but on a 'meh' level for me.

I forgot about Samurai (How?). I LOVE it, the first half of the cycle is far better then the second half though. In fact, I do think it would be better if it ran the same cycle as it does now, reversed.
Also, as Enigma Shadow has said, Maelstrom. I'm a HUGE fan of gyro swings. They're amazing fun.

Is the first half the forwards cycle part? Cause that bit is LOADS better than the backwards part.
Also, Slammer. As long as you go backwards first, to get that bit over and done with.
Lesson of the day Thorpe - Backwards on flat rides = SUCK.
Also, I used to love Maelstrom, still do actually, but, it makes me feel sick now
And Rush is BORING.
This proves that Samurai is a piece of ****. On topscans that are actually run properly and not on granny mode, the backwards part is more intense. Samurai is a joke.-lofty- said:
I'd say my favourite permanent flat would have to be Apocalypse, Drayton Manor... but fair flats are a lot better than park flats.

I think the airtime is better on Flip Flop, but I preferred the swing on Maelstrom. It was very close between the two though, and I think that my endearing memory of my favourite flat (Maelstrom) is probably clouding judgement against Flip Flop.
It's like is my favourite ice cream vanilla or strawberry. I adore strawberry, but always have vanilla because there's not much difference between the two in terms of "favourites", but I like the comfort of vanilla

Mine is Flip Flop at Mingeland. The air is nice and even though it's a backy-forthy-spinny ride it doesn't make me feel like puke. Yeah.
I used to love Rush at Thorpe, I still do on Fright Nights but the cycle just ends to quickly, massive anti-climax.
Might have to agree with Ian here too, Jumping Bean at Paultons is....sexual. For those who had been on it don't even pretend like you don't know what I mean ;]

True dat.
I went on a Tagada at a fair once. One of the scariest experiences ever! That and the Tango. My god that was horrifying! Oh and the one that spins you round in up upwards circle where you all sit in line. Name escapes me, almost came out of one of those once!
Best flat... Rush on a good cycle!
