My favorite combination of inversions is the sidewinder - turnaround - double barrel roll on the Vekoma SLC.
I love how you just fly through it and the footchoppers are amazing.

I agree with you FN, the only problem is, the track is so bumpy, it makes it almost no fun.

It has to be Nemesis hands down! Corkscrew, 3.5g helix into zero-g, huge loop into the final killer corkscrew

Cobra roll into a complete loop ... simple yet effective. ;-)

I agree with edge. Nemesis is amazing. The helix, and flying into the loop is so cool. And the surprising last inversion!

Man, this is a tough one.

I think one of my faves is Airtime hill - switchback banking - immelman - helix wrapped around it. (yes, thats from Dueling Dragons Fire)

Next to that Im not sure. Probably Loop - super low + fast overbank - Hammerhead turn - Cobra Roll.

Then Id say Airtime hill - interlocking corks - high G finish.


Oh wait, those last 2 encompass the entire Dominator ride :P Seriously, thats one of the most intense but unique B&M's out there thats over 140ft.

Nemesis has to have the best combination of elements out of all of the rides anywhere, out of all of the coasters I've ridden, nothing packed as much adrenaline as: Corkscrew - high g helix - zero g roll - overbanked - vertical loop - turnaround - corkscrew. Amazing, just amazing.

Other than that, I have to say I really loved going round a Vertical loop followed by two dive loops and an inclined loop into a wierd little banked bunnyhop type thing - guess the ride and I'll give you .............. nothing. ahaaaa new quiz idea maybe [;)] lol.

i like Montu's vertical loop, then an inmmelman and then a zero-g roll and then a batwing.

So many possibilities...
1. Double Corkscrew (Viper)
2. Loop into Dive Loop into Zero-G Roll (Medusa/Scream!)
3. Loop into Cobra Roll into Zero G Roll
4. For Woodies: First drop into some nice airtime hills
5. Steel hypercoasters: First Drop (into tunnel...mmmm), Quick Turnaround, large airtime hill, intense curved track...Goliath! :P

It would have to be X's fly-to-lie into an outside raven turn into a lie-to-fly, especially with the way X has been pacing as of late, nothing can really compare with the out of control feeling delivered by that combo. For woodies I'd have to say Boss's first drop into drop turn with no going up in between, the combination of airtime and lats simultaneously is thrilling and surprising. And as far as steel hypercoasters are concerned, I'd have to go with Desperado's first half, drop into tunnel into a lat filled 90 degree turn up into a lat filled 270 degree turn down and back up into airtime hills, both intense and enjoyable, and the lats and roughness sets Desperado apart from such rides as MF or Goliath all for the better IMO.

i like the way premire does high speed turns (the first and last turn on speed) and i like the tophat + low barrel roll on the chiller.

also the Hulk's zero-g roll into cobra roll into a vertical loop then into the corkscrew is brilliant as well.
