The west coast lacks a solid, large airtime hill besides Ghostrider. You could say Railblazer is also good as well, but I'm talking a large, generally straight, airtime hill. Goliath as well, which is alright, I think it's better than people say, but again, but not full size. Anther problem, with both Goliath and Ghostrider, is the hills don't fully reach the bottom or whatever, it's sort of in-complete.

That's not not to say the west coast doesn't have plenty of airtime! And of course, hangtime/inversions galore!

I mean, the west coast lacks a traditional out and back hypercoaster and almost totally lacking on airtime until Twisted Colossus and Railblazer. So, agreed.

Also, Flight Deck is pound for pound the best B&M invert ever built.

No no no, don't forget Ghostrider. That's been around since the 90's and starts off with a really solid airtime hill right off the drop.

The original Roar at SFDK had a large hill where the stall is now, but, it didn't produce any airtime.

And yes, agreed, flight deck is the best inverted coaster ever! :D :D :D
