What do you prefer?

A tall lift hill,

or

A short fast launch?


It's a hard desicion for me so I'll choose both.

hmm, matters how tall a tall lift hill is, i guess i would have to say lift hill just because it would be a longer ride with a long tall lift hill. but, you never know, i guess a short fast launch could too...and, why isnt this a poll??

wow, was something just wrong with me, duh, launch for sure, because its gotta lead to a big hill, yeah, idk what i was thinking...

^meh

I don't really have a preference, as long as it doesn't take a long time to do whatever it does. Naturally, I like launches, but a fast lift hill is fine too.

Depends on the coaster type, but generally I prefer lifts for wooden coasters and launches for steel.

Although no wooden coasters have launches, lol.

Generally lifts lead to big hills too. Some even have them as the biggest on the ride. :P

A lift. Because you can look down and relax, and watch the view.

I like a Intamin accelerator launch the best. The pause right before you are launched builds up extreme anticipation and anxiety.
