The Hulk looks cool. Is the Beast the wooden one that goes up side down?

^Son of Beast had a loop but they removed it.

My favorite rollercoaster would have to be TTD with Deja Vu and BTR close behind.

Best coaster anywhere definitely has to be Voyage. That thing is just insane and never lets up. It has amazing turns and great air-time.

The best steel coaster, probably my third favorite coaster all together has to be BTR at SFGAm. That might change after this summer after I get out to more parks.

Lastly, best themed coaster, Revenge of the Mummy. Though after taking on Expedition Everest some more, I am beginning to like it more and more; however, Mummy still destroys it in theming.

Dan, what exactly does Revenge of the mummy do? I know what Flight of Fears do because of Poltergeist and Jokers Jinx but I never knew what exactly what was in Revenge.

Don't you think I'm trying to do that? And no, it won't solve ALL my problems. Think about it. I get a job, I won't have vacation time right off the bat. And I doubt it will pay well enough for me to go to a park several times a year. And I don't drive. And you should really consider this:

If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all.

Seriously. :x

Oh, and speaking of getting things, get an avatar! :lol:

And I almost forgot, did you know that four of your last five posts (and 20% of your total posts in all) are negative comments in response to MY posts? Seems like I got a stalker who has nothing better to do in their free time than to follow my posts around and find some negative comment to them, even if there's no reason to reply. Go back to what you were doing with your life BEFORE I came here, K? Seriously.

Yes, The Beast is the one that goes up side down.

I had no idea that the Son of the Beast had a loop. any word why it was taken out?

No, The Beast does not go upside down. Son of Beast did, but taken out due to too much stress on the train or something like that.

Mummy at first is like any other slow moving dark ride, then you shoot around a corner to a dead end to start the coaster. I really don't want to give it all away of how it starts, but the theming of the dark ride part of the ride is sweet and well done, it sets up the coaster part very well. The theming during the coaster is harder to see, but has a very different kind of theming half way through. I just don't want to give out too much information, but trying to give you a good idea of how it works. It's a great ride though.

My bad. I have my coasters mixed up. I've only been there once.

So no more wooden coasters out there that have a loop?

And the Mummy was a great ride. I bought a cool tie-dye t shirt after I rode it twice. :]

That is because you are the most annoying person that has ever been on here. These forums don't gain anything from your unnessicary posting. Don't try to increase your post count, it's just annoying.

Oh and get a life besides posting on a six flags message board 25 times a day.


I don't want to start a fight with anyone. By the way, I seem to have tons of free time considering how all those punky employers looking for "college grads" won't hire me. I got special training for the job I want, but nooooooooo, they want "college grads". Stop the negativity, okay? I will stop first.

/\ Wow, blueviola, you really need to grow up and stop putting him down because he can't find a job. It is really difficult to find a job these days, I got lucky to get a job. He can post here as much as he wants, as long as it contributes to the topic or just trying to enhance it.

Read the forum rules and then you'll realize that what half of what you have been posting is "bullcrap." I am now officially done putting up with childish people like you. Grow up.

Wow, lately topics seem to be getting sidetracked.

Anywho, my favorite steel would have to be Maverick, and I will agree with Danhockey on the woodie. Voyage is by far the best wooden coaster I have ridden to date. That could change when I make the trip out to Coney to ride the Cyclone sometime in my lifetime.
If it walks like socialist, quacks like socialist, smells like a socialist, .... it's a socialist. Hope, and change we can believe in.

We couldn't ride Maverick only because the line was sooo long! At least we still got to ride Top Thrill Dragster.
