Today at NCC, it was mentioned that corporate wanted to add a Superloop where King Chaos is for 2017 but Hank disapproved. (Similar to SFOT for 2016). I changed my stance on superloops a year ago so that kinda blows. I hope this atleast means we still have a chance at getting one
Since I have been on a Super Loop (SFStL) I think I would have to go with the Super Loop. Way more comfortable than King Chaos. But that just what I think.
Have to agree with Tardis, while Intamin looping starships (I rode the one at Valleyfair) take the cake, King Chaos comes in a very close second for most uncomfortable flat I have ever been on.
Favorite @ SFGAm - Eagle ~ Favorite Steel - Skyrush ~ Favorite Wood - El Toro 35 Rides on Eagle in 2015 68 Rides on Eagle in 2016 102 Rides on Eagle in 2017 9 Rides on Eagle in 2018
If you think King Chaos is uncomfortable, wait until you ride this:

Dear god help. I'm honestly surprised nobody went sterile from this ride. Super uncomfortable. Inverters are also quite awful. Both are at Adventureland in Altoona, Iowa.
Anyway, I'd love to have a Superloop here as long they don't market it as a coaster. They seem quite fun in my opinion.
A DIVE COASTER - I swear since Oblivion was introduced, we were rumored to get a dive machine. I'm actually quite surprised we didn't get "Sheikra". When the dive coaster came back I thought for sure there was one in store for us. But knowing what they're able to do now, I would gladly still take one. I think we could get something better than Valravn. We're tight with B&M, they can do it for us
But 1999, ah what a year. First "hyper twister" & floorless coasters introduced to the world. I'm very happy we got Bull, it's still unique. Great America as a whole, especially for the chain is really unique. We are the park that kicked off B&Ms career with Iron Wolf & pushed them into the hyperdrive with Bateman. We're the only SF park to have a coaster built in house I believe (Viper), hyper twister, wing coaster, only wooden non converted/hybrid RMC, only double racing woodie now that Colossus is gone, & Whizzer is a gem we're known for. There's a lot more to our park that separates us from the other 17 properties, I really do love it here & that's why yes, I will get upset if we get a clone cause I feel we're better than that as snooty as that comes off. Joker is goin to be a great addition I'm excited for but as I've said, I think a tweaked model would have been nice to see. The problem with a park like us is yeah it's great to have things first or have them when they're rare but as times goes on, other parks get the bigger better or added umph versions. Which kinda sucks, let's be honest.
Believe me, the one at Adventureland is much worse. This just has OTSRs, so there's no constant pressure pushing down on that area. Instead, your body gets thrusted into the restraint, which causes irregular jolts of more painful pain.
If this were a coaster in terms of how long you were out of your seat, it'd have unbelievable airtime/hangtime. But this was a Topspin, so it was just force and pain.

I bet if we got Mr. Freeze, we wouldn't have gotten Raging Bull. IMHO I'd rather take RG
I wish we had gotten Freeze! Maybe just because I've gotten sick of Bull haha

I'm glad we don't have Mr. Freeze. Premier Rides restraints are horrendous if you're over 6 feet tall, it's terrible on lower legs. Assuming Mr. Freeze has the same restraints as say Flight of Fear
