| The red one does look like fun, but everything else is as average as it gets. That red one needs a crazy tight pullout like Peppermint Twist had...now *that* was awesome. Though it was only 32', the speeds seemed so much higher because of the way it was shaped. |

That would be really intimidating. This one looks pretty crazy, too. I'm not sure where it's located.
This one at Evan's Plunge is pretty crazy, too. It doesn't look like much, but it's pretty intense.

That looks like the one at Duinrell, But they have removed that slide and replaced it with a less steeper slide  |

I've been on one like that, but with about a 30 degree turn at the bottom.

That light blue slide does look pretty sick. Reminds me of Lemon Drop at Water Country, but steeper and without the 5' freefall into the water.
I think the new trapdoor slides with the loops are probably the most exciting right now. Not knowing exactly when you're going to drop is for me probably the scariest thing on any ride, and the loop aspect will make that more fun than say Bomb Bay. I hope to try one of the trapdoor freefall slides one day...we shall see if that happens. |

| I went on one like that, with the two slides intertwined, at King's Island. All I can remember is that it felt like I was being blasted in the face with a solid wall water the whole time. |

| I thought it looked real cool before I rode the one at King's Dominion, but turns out it wasn't all that fun. Never picks up any speed from what I remember. |

it actually is the one at duinrell, but from several years ago, before they added the backside of the pool and the dark slides.
but I can guarantee that it is still pretty intense, when you enter the slide with high speed, by swinging round this steel beam over the entrance of the slide, you'll end up flying till around halfway down the drop and then taking great G's at the bottom |

| haha wow, those slides really just pack in there. It looks like you would pull some g's on the blue and green body slides. |

| I've been to Duinrell and in my opinion, the slide with the highest forces isn't even in that picture, but rather in an extension out back. If you been there, you probably know what I mean. |
Screw Commercialism. It's Dr.Gumbo, not CokeZero. |

High g's? The best slide at Duinrell is still the one with zero-g's.. |

Yeah, that one's awesome. Even if its essentially the same as jumping of a small bridge. |

The one that Cokezero mentions is this one
You enter this turn with a 50 foot drop. The g forces actually slow you down more than the water in the outrun does. |
