This is still a small enough community that I think we can get away with this discussion without a ton of replies that no one reads ;)

What’s everyone’s top 10 list for coasters? Here’s my current top 10:

Before anyone asks, yes, I’ve been to Cedar Point… SteVe doesn’t appear until 22 in my list…

    I haven’t ridden a ton of coasters, but here are a few of my favorites:

    Phoenix at Knoebels. I like Twister, too, but Phoenix is great.

    Expedition Everest at Disney World. That’s another one I can ride again and again.

    Space Mountain at Disneyland. The one at World is good, but Land’s is better.

    Intimidator 305 and Twisted Timbers are both extremely intense for me, I can ride them once per visit, and that’s about it. They’re both great coasters though.

    I haven’t tried Skyrush - the last time we were at Hersheypark, it kept breaking down, and then Covid, etc, so despite having family in the area, we haven’t made it back. I also want to try Candymoniun. And they have a new Rocky Mountain conversion that just opened. I’ve heard good things.

      It sounds like you’ll absolutely love Candymonium… SkyRush is tied with i305 as the most intense coaster(s) that I’ve ever been on but it’s so glorious. Where i305 has a ton of positive G forces, SkyRush has insane negative G forces.

      I’ve not been on Expedition Everest as I haven’t been to Disney since I worked there in 1999 but if you love that coaster you’d probably absolutely love Hagrid’s Magical Creatures at Universal Orlando.

        I visited Cedar Point before I started riding coasters (long story), but I’m pretty certain I’ll love Millennium Force when I get back there. It looks fast and fun.

        I’ve tried a few “twisty” coaters and just don’t enjoy them as much. So, i305 should be a slam dunk, but my vision “graying out” on that first turn the first time I rode it is a memory I can’t shake.
