I know there are a million topics like this, but i just figured it would be cool to narrow it down a bit as far as favorites go. my list just changed drastically after a recent visit to busch gardens africa.

List the three, then explain a little about each.

1.) tie between Maverick (just insane) and Kumba (smooth as a good poop, inversions everywhere, interacts with environment)

2.) Montu (beats the crap out of raptor, batwing owns, good scenery)

3.) Sheikra (drop is rediculous, immelman is nice, but too short.)


I haven't had the opportunity to visit alot of parks, basically just cedar point, island of adventure, and Busch gardens africa.

calm down noob, this site is a little relaxed on what is said.

as for my rides:
1. Maverick - just crazy, have to pick it.
2. Nirto - was little when i rode it, but i still remember it being amazing!!!
3. M-Force - fast, fun, smooth, and i notice a bit of air on the ride regardless of what people say.

Argh, the one reason I am hesitant to join forums is to see 'noob' again.

Okay, I'll try to contain it.

2. Flight of Fear (a good launch and inversions...in the dark)
3. Kinda Ka (it's the tallest in the world. enough said.)

1.Maverick - Epic airtime, amazing first drop, and a finale that is sure to take a few years off your life expectancy.

2.Millennium Force - Great layout, never loses too much speed, sweet first drop.

3.Dominator - A loop to die for, sweet cobra roll, interlocking corkscrew, and extremely tight ground hugging helix for a finale.

_Rock 'n' Rollercoaster Starring Aerosmith (Disney Studios Paris) : I love Aerosmith, and this coaster is Great too with the propulse, Sea Serpent, some of Turns, and the music !!!
_Vampier and Cobra : _ Vampier : Simple SLC, funny (especelly In Line Twists), but too short.
_Cobra : Great Boomerang, I love the Cobra Roll, and the backseat for the First Drop.
_Weerwolf (Walibi Belgium) : Best Wooden that I have rode, Great Camels Backs, Turns and Helix!

After that, I like other coasters (Goudurix, the defunct Bat Coaster, etc...)

I've only been to Kings Dominion and Busch Gardens Europe so this is easy. 1 and 2 are a tie between Volcano and Apollo's Chariot. #3 is Griffon
