Without a doubt Mean Streak. That coaster is like being in an earthquake.

Son of Beast without question. First drop is actually quite smooth, the double inclined helix's arn't banked enough pumping to much lats. And they're very shakey. Loop is smooth, obviously its smooth because its steel[lol].
I was hoping for a smooth hyper coaster feel to it, or a nice woody. It was neither and in my opinion a hunk of junk, and a waste of space. Such a bad idea putting it in the same park as the beast too.

Raging Wolf Bobs? have you been on that this season? They retracked most the ride and its fantastic now.

But I'd have to anwser Son of Beast, the roughness of the track is increased through the overall speed of the ride and the trains. I've never had a good ride on it. Mean Streak I've actually had a few good rides on, but they are rare.

I voted for SFNE Cyclone just because it's the only one on that list I've ridden. But from what i've heard it seems like Raging Wolf Bobs was the worst before it was re-tracked.

I voted for The rattler at Six Flags Fiesta Texas. IMO the roughest woodie before it was reprofiled. There is a POV avaiable at themeparkreview.

either Williams Grove Cyclone (mostly oddly formed track not really "roughest") or Coaster Express at Parque Warner

I dreamed last night that I rode the Williams Grove Cyclone! It was great (at least in the dream.) Then I awoke and remembered it's gone forever and I never rode it! :(

Raging Wolf Bobs. My God, it's not just not smooth but also like it was designed by a 5-year-old. Really, who puts a massive straightaway and then a turn right after the first drop.[confused]

White Canyon is not present. Way to fail.

Yeah, what I meant is out of coasters you've ridden. I chose Riverside Cyclone only because it's the only one on that list I've ridden. It's not a bad coaster at all though, sometimes it's rougher than others depending on how the wheels decide to run that day. Last time I rode it was butter smooth like El Toro, but it still has whiplash due to high laterals, and also those goddamn trim brakes that bring you to almost a halt right on a hill! Way to ruin a great ride!

I am surprised Psyclone at SFMM isn't on there. Ouch.

BUT, I'm sure SoB is much more painful

I voted other. Grizzly at Great America is horrible horrible horrible horrible...you get my point. The track literally shifts a couple of inches when the train passes it.
