That's a joke right? What complaint could they have possibly given?
They should only be allowed to complain about the coaster being built too far away from them.
Steel- Smoothest: Cheetah Hunt at BGT. Even though it's a snorefest, I can't deny that it is glass smooth. Roughest: Every SLC ever, Every Volare ever, Pinfari looping zyklons, Toboggan at Lakemont Park, and Diamondback.
Wood- Smoothest: Beast at Kings Island and White Lightning at Fun Spot America Roughest: Wildcat at Lake Compounce before the re-track, Hell Cat at Clementon Park, and Boss at Six Flags St. Louis
Smoothest would probably be Dare Devil Dive @ SFOG. It's so smooth to the point of relaxing. Roughest would be Rebel Yell @ Kings Dominion. I had a horrible time on that ride, it was such a weird feeling.
^ I say the same thing. I went to KD with a couple non enthusiast friends a couple summers ago and we all found Rebel Yell quite fun and Grizzly pretty rough. Shockwave at KD also wasn't nearly as bad as people say it is either. I've had worse experiences on boomerang clones than Shockwave.
Don't you TaLk AbOuT GrIzZlY lIkE tHaT!!!1!!1!1 Grizzly is perfect<3
Smoothest for me is Wicked Cyclone. I think I caught it between "vibration" cycles at the beginning of this season, and it was unbelievably smooth. Really surprised me.
Roughest... don't know. Gwazi and the 2nd half of the right side of Thunder Road would be contenders, though.
Steel: Smoothest would be Intimidator although it is a B&M and it's one of the few coasters I've been on opening year. Roughest The Cyclone at Wonderland Amusement Park, it's a 60's Miler Mouse.
Wood: Smoothest White Lightning at Fun Spot Roughest It's honestly a tie between the Rattler and Texas Giant.
Roughest by a wide margin was the old Rattler at SFFT. I rode it in 2002 and even that was after significant reprofiling had been done. Smoothest has to be any of the i-box RMCs. They're all equally comfortable. So what I'm trying to say is... Rattler is both my roughest and smoothest coaster!
Smoothest probably Air or Swarm, although Swarm has gained a bit of a rattle now on the back row. Roughest is either Colossus back row or wild mouse at blackpool.
