blizzard666 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Well summers creeping up, and I figured I'd start a rollercoaster thread. Post some good ones if youd like, or just discuss ones youve been on. Ill start by saying i live in central pennsylvania, and went on hershey parks and kennywood's rollercoasters, and i was looking for anyone who can reccomend something close to pennsylvania. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad4u689 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Rollercoasters are incredible :D It's not that close to CENTRAL pennsylvania... but it is in Pennsylvania... have you been to Dorney Park? It's not bad, but not amazing. I mean, a lot of people love it, but I think the coasters are overrated. There's only one good one that isn't wooden, and I can't stand wooden coasters. AND the non-wooden one doesn't even have loops, it just goes crazy fast. But Six Flags has some AMAZING ones :D Everybody hug and spread the love :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam007 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I'm not too far from Cedar Point, which has some pretty awesome roller coasters. The Millenium Force is pretty cool, and the Top Thrill Dragster is amazingly fast at around 100+ mph. I still prefer Disney World's Space and Splash mountain roller coasters though. They're a lot more fun and entertaining in my opinion. I don't like getting too scared. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK the name buts its new this year and opens in 2 days, should b crazy goes 128 M.p.H Yeah, I heard about that. Even tho I don't like rollercoasters it's still fun going to Six Flags and enjoying the day. Btw: Sliverman where do you live in New Jersey, becuase I'm about 40 minutes away.

Rizla Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I went to Thorpe Park last week and had a blast. I hadn't been to a theme park since i was about 14 so this was pretty cool for me. Check out the site, it has pictures and videos of the rides. Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_counda Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 I spent a day in Universal (Orlando, FL.) and did The Hulk 6 times, and Dueling Dragons 16 times (8 fire, 8 ice). What an awsome day :) I also did the ride where it just shoots you up a tower and you can see everything, that was fun too. The next day I did all the Disney parks, I did the Tower of Terror twice, the Aerosmith Rock 'n Roller coaster 4 times, spalsh mountain twice, the space simulator thingy in Epcot twice, and Test Track twice. That was another good day :) I absolutely love roller coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good fun but i prefer the rollercoasters where your feet are dangling. Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjlhdevil Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 the best roller-coaster ive been on is colossus at thorpe park Video of it hereNo way in hell that is best Air > Nemesis > Nemesis inferno > Colossus Montu and Kumba are the 2 best I've been on in busch gardens. Duelings dragons is also wicked. Hulk is too overhyped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bmw Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 Anyone here been to Canada's Wonderland? It's awesome, I love roller coasters! While scrolling down page one, I was thinking about posting "Wow, a bit more than a page and noone has mentioned Canada's Wonderland?", but you have changed that :wink: I've been there a decent amount of times, planning on going in a few weeks or so. Awesome place, no matter what, you just have to let loose and have fun there :P Their rollercoasters are awesome also, such as The Bat or Vortex. I love roller coasters, so fun. I can't see how people can be scared or em :? 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
