Re: Top 10(ish): 2014 Edition

After Drayton and The Smiler last year,

1. Oblivion/The Smiler
2. The Swarm
3. Shockwave (Drayton Manor)
4. Nemesis
5. Stealth
6. Saw: The Ride
7. Nemesis Inferno
8. Colossus
9. Rita
10. Thirteen (Back Row Only)

My top ten is looking pretty bad, but hopefully should be able to find my way over to Oakwood so Megaphobia can make its way into my top 5. And perhaps Speed may push Thirteen out of my top ten! Ha, and I can always dream of going abroad! (Come on Disney Paris, Park Astrix, Port Adventura and Liseberg!)

That doesn't matter. It's fun to see how it changes over time. You don't have to have a top ten of all 5* coasters. Or a top 10 at all

My coaster count is too small to do lists just yet.
I've had a top 10 since I had 25 coasters. Come on now!

PS: Go Bucks. :)

Here's mine, which is a rather odd forerunner. HRRR, in my opinion, is the most forceful, exciting and addictive coaster experience I have had the pleasure to ride, complimented by its length and unique music track synchronisation (well, in a sense...). I also adore wingriders and cannot understand the pessimism which some people express about them...

1. HRRR
2. Raptor
3. Nemesis
4. Kumba
5. Swarm
6. Hulk
7. Montu
8. Kraken
9. Sheikra
10. Smiler

11. Oblivion
12. Stealth
13. Manta
14. Nemesis Inferno
15. Supersonic Odyssey

You rate Gravity Max that high? I always thought it looked a bit of a gimmick!

Oh it completely is... but what a gimmick. Honestly the only coaster I've been terrified on in a long time.
There's something horrible about seeing the end of the track pointing vertically down with nothing connected just feet from your face.

I do wonder if i rode it loads if it would hold that fear though.

If I sat down properly it may lose a few spots to rides I remember I've ridden but certainly up there somewhere.

Yeah, I can image being properly terrified by this. It's like my worst nightmare. I always have that ridiculous fear on shuttles and impulse coasters that they aren't going to stop at the end.

Re: Top 10(ish): 2014 Edition

I just took a trip to Orlando, which resulted in a slight change.

Used to be:
1. Millennium Force
2. El Toro
3. Boulder Dash
4. Kumba
5. Intimidator
6. Batman: The Ride
7. Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit
8. Sheikra
9. Hulk
10. Montu

New List:
1. Millennium Force
2. El Toro
3. Boulder Dash
4. Kumba
5. Intimidator
6. Batman: The Ride
7. Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit
8. Sheikra
9. Hulk
10. White Lightning

It seems really odd to rank this tiny woodie over Montu, but I really enjoyed it. It has lots of great pops of airtime, and is just a fun ride. My perception of it may be a bit skewed however. Most of my Orlando trip was spent at Disney, which is not a park I particularly enjoy. White Lightning was far better than anything at Disney in my opinion, but this may have made it seem better than it really is. For the time being at least, this seems like the right place to put it.

Re: Top 10(ish): 2014 Edition

^ya i had a pretty bad experience with that ride when i was at cedar point, when we got there it was only open for about 2-3 hours and was closed throughout the whole trip. I never got the chance to ride it.
