Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.
I would have to say Mean Streak at Cedar Point. It looks like an awesome ride but it hurts bad. It also gives you a major headache.

Excalibur at Valleyfair! I love it but no one else does cause it is really bumpy.

The Go-Karts at Odyssey Fun World by my house.
I'd have to go with Mean Streak back row during Mid-Day.
It's less trimmed at night.

I've always heard that Psyclone and Flashback were the [dog barks]est rides in the states even though I never went on them myself.
American Eagle (red side) used to be pretty rough but I think it's ok now.
One time when I rode the Demon at 50 degrees outside I have been shaken around my seat like inside a saltshaker.
I thought Big Thunder and Space Mountain were moderately rough when I rode them a few years ago. I don't know about now.
R.I.P. Splashwater Falls and Space Shuttle America. Deja Vu, enjoy Idaho.

Space Mountain is very bumpy in back row, but its mostly a smooth ride.
Eagle Blue gets my vote.

I'd say Iron Wolf. I haven't been on it in 2 years because the last time I rode it, It hurt so bad. My head. Ouch!!!
And you probly will all think I'm crazy for this but I think that Hades is rough. I think it's the most painful coaster at Mt. Olympus. I can't believe how rough it already is and it's only been running for 1 year. The roughest part is the turn after the station fly-by. On that turn, my skull, neck, and spine were all rattling. I was in so much pain after riding it 5 times in a row.

Hades is only rough at that one part.
And if it hurt so bad why did you ride it 5 times?
Boss is a good rough.
Painful air..YEAH.

Yeah, Psychlone is really bad. I have yet to ride one that has matched it's roughness. It's not even really bumpy it just.....the cars really jerk you around.
From what I remember, the Soap Box racers at Knott's Berry Farm used to be really rough. I remember always being thrusted forward and stopping abruptly. Hmmm....I don't know, I was very young.
Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking, isn't thinking of.

Zeus is the bumpiest, the trains literally bounce up and down; but the roughest, it is Mean Streak.
