Rides that look different to how they ride

Saw LOOKS fine. Fast, thrilling and fun, but in fact, its possibly the most painful coaster I have ever had the pleasure of riding.

Give me The Ultimate Odyssey Mouse, and add some of Corkscrews head banging, and that would still be bareable compared to the excruciating pain that I suffer on Saw.

Terminator looked cool, had almost a classic look to it, but was nothing more than a waste of space in my opinion.

Stfu, it's a fun ride, especially at night.
 
Desperado. It looks smooth, it was built after Magnum XL 200 (which I feel is smooth enough), any video and POV taken makes it look smooth.

Is it?

Oh gods no, my back was so **** up my entire vacation in Vegas, my friend Jenn thought I was doing the naughty with Bob (not anyone on here fyi) when all he was doing was cracking my back in the right spots.

Tbh, Ill re-ride Mean Streak any day of the week than Desperado. God, that coaster plain sucked ass and needs to die horridly so.
 
Magnum looked smooth but wasn't
Cyclone at SFNE looked fun but was very bumpy
Mean Streak looked bumpy, but wasn't too bad (I know I'll take a lot of crap for that)
GASM looked good, but was bumpy

The list really goes on and on
 
Gemini looked lame, but it wasn't. I thought Mean Streak and Magnum were going to be smoother than what they were.
 
Hollywood Rip-Ride RockIt.
Looks quite fun and really smooth offride but when you're on it it's pretty bumpy and rough.
 
Rip, Ride, Rockit is just awful in ever single way.

Mauer have a habit of making rides that don't lok how they feel. HOW does that hill on G-Force lack airtime? HOW? How did they manage it? It's almost talented.

Yea, RRR looked way better in the concept art than it turned out (N). I was really looking forward to it when it opened and after i rode i was throughly disappointed. Also the Fake-Loop was the biggest waste of space.
 
^I really don't get all the hate for Rip Ride Rockit, I had some reeeeaaallllyyy good rides on the thing! Especially at night. The ride itself plus the atmosphere and music and stuff just made for a really fun ride, I didn't find it gross at all.

Raptor is the first one that springs to mind. I followed construction of it and just though it looked really slow and boring but it was actually really good fun.
 
Quantum off ride looks so slow. But on ride it is much more intense especially at the bottom of it's swing.

On the other hand Zodiac is much less intense than it looks due to the rides motion counteracting gravity.
 
I might seem a bit crazy but Stealth is actually far less scary than it looks and so are SLC's, in my opinion.

Vampire looks rubbish, however it's a load of fun when riding front seat....
 
G-Force looks like a quite smooth half decent ride, but in fact is probably the most painful coaster I have ridden.
 
I've never ridden one, but the El Locos look really fun.
But when people ride them they say that they're rubbish. :(
 
I'll have to say the ultimate for this as the very small bit of it you can see off ride looks smooth but the ride is anything but.
