Well this is a similar topic to the Schwarzkopf one but oh well!

So I just want to know what you all think is the best Pinfari coaster?


Mine would be the now demolished Thunder Mountain at Flamingo Land!

Oh I don't know some are ok, I mean ok the loopers are a little rough but they are quite forceful.

The indoor ones like Sewer Rat are really quite good too!

Yeah I agree with you there!

Also you can count Indiana Jones as a Pinfari as Intamin just copied their shockwave ride.

I heard from a friend you can pick Pinfari Inverts up for around $800,000 and the maintanence costs are very low. Its definitely a contender for my back-garden if i win the lottery

^^^^^^^^It was a friend from overseas that told me that information.
The Gauntlet is just your standard Pinfari looper or if your being technical a Pinfari ZL42.
Them rides have nothing in them at all. And there quite painful. There only 36 feet high for gods sake!!!

Pinfari model TL59 [:D] My 1st or 2nd looping coaster ever. One of the two. The model i rode was called Crazy loop and was at Pleasure Island cleethorpes. I used to love that ride.

such a fun ride for people who arent tall enough to go on bigger coasters. Shame it was taken down. Its the same layout as Indiana Jones at Disneyland Paris made by Intamin.

I also think Tsunami looks good. I wanted to get to Hull Fair (i live quite near) to ride it last year, but couldnt go. Does anyone know if its going to Nottingham Goose fair? Ive seen the map, but i cant remember if Tsunami was on it.

So Gaulent is well rubbish!

I do quite like some loopers by Pinfari though, I guess I'll have to try it myself!

Also whats the Roller coaster like that EDGE was talking about?
