This is my first poll and I'm curious to see where the numbers stand. :D

Feel free to post your opinions below as to why you choose them.

Also don't feel like you have to comment, If you wish to remain anonymous, that is perfectly fine.

Stay civilized as well. :lol:

I'll say B&M just because I haven't been on enough Intamins to judge properly. I've been on 8 B&M's but only 2 Intamins. THose being Vertical Velocity and American Eagle at SFGAm. Manta and X-Flight are my favorites right now. I will say though, I really liked the few Gerstlauers I've been on.

I choose B&M.

Their safety record, they're comfort, and their quality are what puts them on the top of my list. :P

I chose intamin because their rides are far more intense, extreme, and overall more epic. They love to push the envelope, and even though it's come back to bite them, I love it.

Ive been on I-305, Kingda Ka, and Stormrunner, and they are all in a different stratosphere compared to any B&M. :D

B&M - Nemesis and Shambhala.

To be fair it is slightly skewed by my limited experience of anything Intamin that's especially great!

My choice isn't up there: RMC. I've only been on one RMC, which is Goliath at SFGAm, but that ride is incredible. There are only a few airtime moments, but the sheer intensity makes up for it. If it really is the worst of the RMCs like everyone else says, then I can't wait to ride the other ones!

Sorry about that, didn't notice. Well, RMC makes steel coasters too with their Iron Horse treatments, so I guess they could still be considered here.

El Toro is inferior to Balder.

If I was the head of a park I would go with B&M, good ride quality, riders per hour, safety, and reliability.
But as a coaster enthusiast, Intamin is far superior in delivering a more intense and memorable ride.
