favorite coaster maufacturer

Punish me, but I really like Gerstlauer coasters.. Especially their Bobsled-coasters. But my ultimate favourite manufacturer is B&M, for sure!

I still like Schwarzkopf. He was a dude! (Well he wasnt called Mr Rollercoaster for nothing now was he?)

my company are Vekoma and Togo

hot rod, whats with you and bringing back ressurected topics?

bringing back ressurected topics or ressurecting topics?

^ My bad. I'm getting jumbled up in my own words.

Heh, I'll just say intamin because SROS is my favorite ride so far, but SKC isn't too far back.

CCI - soon to be GG.

Followed by B&M then Intamin (based on my own ride experiences)

In a list (including designers):

#1 - Herb Schmeck
#2 - John Miller
#3 - GG/CCI
#4 - Intamin
#5 - Arrow

I'd have to say the best looking to me is Pax, they're nuts.

The best that I've ridden on would be Intamin

SMer's is pretty similar to mine.
1. GG/CCI
2. Harry Traver
3. John Miller
4. Arrow
5. Intamin

I would have Traver on my list, but I've never ridden one of his coasters

For me it's atie between B&M and Intamin. Both of them create such smooth flowing, and amazing coasters! The one better thing about B&M though is that I feel 110% safe in one.

Neither have I, I just had to pay homage to him and the fact that if I could ride any ride in the world, I would choos to ride any of his five or so best designs over any other coasters of the modern world, which is a pretty grandiose statement seeing as he had much less to work with back in his day technologically and inspirationally.

Intamin tends to chuck fatties like us

vekoma, b&m, intamin, arrow/s&s, gg/cci

1. Fred Church (Prior & Church)
2. B&M
3. GCI
4. CCI (GG)
5. Premier Rides (LIM line only)

In that order.

Intamin for me. althought B&M and Intamin both make smooth coasters, Intamin tends to push the enevelope of coaster design and technology. Yes, they have more downtime, but it seems to me, especially now, that B&M is taming down thier coasters. If B&M came out with a 4D I may change my mind, but until then, Intamin all the way.

Intamin is my favorite
their style of track is great
plus they do tend to make the fastest and tallest roller coasters you can ride

based on my own ride experiences:
1.B&M (katun, nemesis, d?????????monen nemesis inferno, oblivion and air)
2. Intamin (kanonen and balder)
3. Schwarzkopf (lisebergsbanen. actually zierer, but degsigned by anton himself)
4. Maurer Sohne! (dragons fury. amazing spinner.)
5. Vekoma (Thundercoaster)

Close call between B&M and Intamin but I prefer Intamin, especially hypers/megas, rockets and then B&M speed coasters.

Although newer Vekoma coasters are less rough, I don't enjoy inversions on sit-down coasters apart from zero-g-rolls and stengel dives. Vekoma still can't make any airtime machine but loopers.

Donno if he belongs to a company or not but John Wardly designs great coasters!
