Hard decision. I like steels because there are inversions, but I like woodies because the planks seem to almost hit you (thrilling). Overall, steel is better.

Once I ride Raven, Legend, and Voyage my opinion will probably change, but at the moment it's steel coasters. My favorite of which is Millenium Force, good speed nice airtime and that first drop. Yummmmm.....

BOth! Steel coasters are usually smoother, and in return they can do more things enjoyable, but wooden coasters give you a more wild ride, and so that is why I choose both, because, both, imo, are just as equally as good as the other, but its the ones with air time that stand out the most!

Steel, has more potential, and can be designed like a woodie (not as rough or give the oldey feel), liek having the scaffolding etc.

^Where would we find a pot big enough to fit him in? But, I got lighter fluid if you got matches.

steel because theres more choice of rides with more inversions and more twists

There are good examples of both rollercoasters eg. Hades for wood EGF for steel ect. But imo overall steel just scrapes its way to the top.
