What is the best relocated coaster operating today?

[Sandman]

Simple question - what's the best relocated coaster (in your opinion) still operating today?

Answers based on the relocation version only, no original version(s).

There doesn't appear to be a way to filter relocations on RCDB, sadly, but Monster at Walygator is the best one I can think of off the top of my head, loved how stupidly intense that thing was.

I'm also a huge fan of Freestyle at Cavallino Matto for similar reasons. Treasure those Togo stand-ups.

Interestingly both clones, made them easier to move I guess.

The best one that I've been on, is Dominator. Lovely coaster, it is.
But whether it's the best relocated coaster operating today, is a different matter. Probably not tbh.

Edit: can I change my answer to Monster instead like he said? ^
Forgot about that one...

It's gotta be Phoenix at Knoebels.

I think people often forget that it was originally built in the '40s at Playland Park, San Antonio. Relocated to Knoebels in the '80s, and still somehow one of the best coasters in the world.

This might be a controversial pick, but Blue Hawk at Over Georgia is amazing. It has more positive g's than any other vekoma, arrow, or B&M, comfortable trains, and plenty of headchoppers.

Gotta go with a favorite of mine, Yankee Cannonball <3

 

[Rob Coasters]

Cannonball Express & Infusion are my current highest ranking non-travelling coasters that have been relocated. Cannonball did initially travel but quite obviously doesn't anymore...!

For me it has to be Phoenix.

Zippin Pippin for the RNR Nostalgia

Does Munich/Olympia looping count? If so, definitely that.

But does that really count? Bay Beach didn't actually rebuild ZP, they basically cloned the ride and used as much wood as they could from a completely different woodie - https://rcdb.com/606.htm (But yeah, Zip is deff an awesome ride too!)

Now that I think about it I think I've never actually been on a relocated coaster.

The only exception would be Flying Fish at Thorpe Park, which has only been relocated within the park itself.

From what I've ridden, probably Wild Mouse at Luna Park Sydney. It moved around a fair bit before settling down in its current location in 1995. Wooden Wild Mice are incredibly enjoyable and it's such a shame that there's only 3 left, all of them pretty far from Europe (sadly Aussie World's closed a few months before I was in the area).

Alpina bahn...

If traveling coasters don't count, I'd probably say Dominator - Monster was just too intense for my liking!

 

[Indy]

I think I have to go with Phoenix, though Dominator and Luna Park Sydney's Wild Mouse are up there.

If it was still operating, then I'd say Quimera. We'll see how it rides at Indiana Beach though.

Got to love The Bullet, flamingo land's former shuttle coaster now in Mexico.

So you've only ridden the undeniably best relocated coaster?

Out of the ones I've ridden it's either Green Lantern @ Great Adventure, or Katapul @ Hopi Hari. I think I personally slightly prefer Green Lantern from what I remember, it feels more complete, and the Stand Up position didn't really impact me. Dunno if I can comment on the best overall relocated coaster currently operating.
