My current favorite is The Voyage at Holiday World, but my #1 spot is pretty flexible.



I'm glad I rode it, but it beat the shite out of me.

Fury 325 at Carowinds in Charlotte. If you haven't ridden it, it's like Goliath, only more so. I believe it breaks 90mph on the first drop, and it is smooth as fricking silk. It is pretty mindblowing.

If you've never been to Carowinds, it is worth a trip. They have some good roller coasters, and for an extra $50 per ticket you can buy an express pass which lets you skip the line on almost every ride in the park, all day long, as many times as you want. Good times.

I always liked the Titan. I felt like the bravest dude in the world when I went up front.

Came here to say this. Haven't been to Cedar Point yet, going next summer, and looking forward to Steel Vengeance.


Have fun! Been too long since I've been there. Steel Vengeance looks awesome. Rocky Mountain Coasters is hitting their stride. I was sad to see Mean Streak go, but it was time. MF at night is an absolute must, if you can. I need to get back up there and try Gatekeeper and Valravn. Plus the revamp of Mantis to floorless has me intrigued. It's a great layout, but those old stand-up trains did not age well. Magnum is still a classic. Maverick will rock your world. So intense

That first turn out of the drop is nuts, especially with that lift hill speed throwing you over the top.

Skyrush at Hershey Park is probably one of the craziest I can remember riding. The outside seat has you literally hanging off the track.

the Beast at Kings island or Milkenium Force.
Both are really long. Ohio is the roller coaster capitol for sure.

If you're into drugs, you can't beat the experience of going to a thrill park on acid. I went to Astroworld tripping balls and it was an experience I'll never forget. The rides were absolutely terrifying and awesome at the same time. I truly thought I was going to die on every one. Also, after smoking a joint on the gondola then getting back in line with parents and screaming kids while tripping in 100 degree heat is something I'll never forget. We'd start arguing or tripping out of the hallucinations of the shadows and then all of a sudden realize everyone in line was looking at us as if, well, as if we were on drugs. One of the best things I've ever done, aside from snow skiing on acid.
