Vertical Velocity followed by Eagle Red. Yes, my list order depends on my mood. I'm also too lazy to change my sig.

eh, why not...

1. Whizzer
2. Eagle Red
3. Viper
4. X Flight
5. Batman
6. Little Dipper
7. Rajun Cajun
8. Raging Bull
9. Batman Dark Knight
10. Demon
11. Spacley's
12. Superman Ultimate Flight
13. V2

If you wanna include defuncts, Iron Wolf would be in last place, Shockwave #3 Deja Vu #4, Tidal Wave #5, Rolling Thunder would be just behind Iron Wolf and V2 for last. Whatever currently has the number of a defunct would move down. Never rode Z Force at SFGAm, though at SFMM it was a mess, and never rode Gulf Coaster.

2 Questions, Where Is Eagle Blue & Why is V2 So Low?

[DejaVu2001]

^ For V2, I'll just give my answer. Lame layout. Back and forth 2.5 times, boring. Also, for some reason, V2 is the only Impulse Coaster that gives me a headache.

[FParker185]

Oops, well for V2 check out what DejaVu2001 said cause he hit the nail right on the head, well except for the headache thing, I don't get that. Basically I don't ride any of the impulses unless I need the credit, and I just barely count them as credits, I think I was swayed into counting them mainly just to pad my count. I'd say last time I rode V2 was probably 06 or so (whatever year it was the year before they deactivated the holding brake)

Eagle Blue I'd probably put at #6, between Batman and Little Dipper.

[Necropolis]

Id like to add, V2 only has one train so the line goes sooo slow at times. I can see V2 leaving us in the near future....but perhaps not. Though I can't see why they would wanna keep V2.

My first post will be in this topic, because it actually inspired me to take stock myself during my lurking days.

1. X-Flight
I kind of feel like it's my baby since I watched it being constructed. It's intense all the way through and provides different experiences in every seat. Love it.

2. American Eagle, Blue Side
I like the airtime a little better on the blue side.

3. American Eagle, Red Side
Either side is good. It's a classic.

T4. Superman: Ultimate Flight
I know it takes its lumps for being forceless, and yes, Tatsu is better at SFMM, but I like how smooth it is. Would slot ahead of Eagle if the line weren't so annoyingly long.

T4. Raging Bull
I love the last section with the tight, low to the ground turns, but the first drop seems too sudden unless you're in the front row. SFMM's Goliath has a much more gradual drop and is much more enjoyable. Also, is it just me or did it feel a little rougher than usual last year?

6. Viper
Fun ride but feels a little weak after riding some GCI coasters.

7. Rajun Cajun
It's a fun ride but the line isn't worth it at all. The capacity issues relegate it to where it is.

8. Whizzer
It's not that I don't like Whizzer, it's the seating setup. My girlfriend has to sit in front and the back of her head seems to always forcefully find my nose the way we're seated.

9. V2
Long line and you know what it's going to do after takeoff. Meh.

10. Batman: The Ride
I'm over Batman. With Iron Wolf gone, it's the roughest coaster in the park besides Demon. Will only ride backwards if I can wear a batting helmet.

11. Dark Knight
I think this ride is a sad shell of what it used to be with the show gone. It's Rajun Cajun with static cars. Whatever.

12. Demon
It's time has come and gone. Like Batman, it should stay and I'll ride it on occasion, but it's more a relic than a thrill machine now.

1. Batman: The Ride (ACE Landmark)
Best theming, great inversions, great use of inverted coaster type. The first inverted coaster changing coaster history forever. There's a reason they cloned this one 6 times!
2. X-Flight (newest coaster...for now...)
Cleared for take-off! Amazing non-stop action with 5 great inversions. No time to relax from one inversion to the next. Really feel some Gs on the inversions and gotta love the keyhole elements! They did a great job of theming and a ride experience that fit together. This ride uses many flight maneuvers like the scissor pass through the tower, the barrel roll, and the dive drop.
3. Raging Bull
Highest speed, biggest drop, smoothest ride, amazing curves. This ride deserves the fact that it is one of the most popular rides in the park.
4. Vertical Velocity
Prepare for launch! This coaster has the highest amount of G-forces and the highest rate of acceleration in the park. I feel this ride is underrated because of the simple track design. It is one of the best ride experiences in the park proving a ride doesn't have to be big and complicated to be great.
5. Superman: Ultimate Flight
The flying experience is very fun. The pretzel loop is by far the best moment of the ride: inverted going straight down, then on your back at the ground, then head up going up pulling some fun G's heading up out of the loop. The theming and ride experience work together well. Your flying head first like Superman. Only down side is with this ride's popularity and proximity to the entrance you can expect long lines.
(You probably noticed a pattern in my top 5...Gotta love B&M!)
6. American Eagle (tallest, longest, fastest, biggest dropping wooden racing coaster in the world)
Great wooden coaster. Great use of wooden racing coaster elements. Great drops, great negative G's (Im personally not a fan of negative G's but they are a classic wooden coaster element and I can appreciate them), I love the winding downhill curve, and the hills twisting over each other are a very fun use of the racing coaster type.
7. Whizzer (ACE Landmark) (1976)
A classic. I love that it goes whizzing past trees, it's banked turns are it's bread and butter for sure, and the unique spiral lift is cool too. The best part of this ride is the Gs on the turns with the trees and ground flying by.
8. Viper
Who doesn't love a cyclone? Great drops and curves. Appreciate the classics. Where would roller coaster history be with our Cyclones?
9. Little Dipper (ACE Coaster Classic)
It's nice to slow down and remember what it was like to be young again. I never went to Kiddieland when it was open but I love this coaster because the ride experience is the experience of being a kid again. Great to stepping stone for kids.
10. Demon (1976)
Classic looping coaster with the best of the basic coaster elements: drop into double loop and double corkscrews. Classic steel coaster train. A bit rough but Ive had my good rides and my bad rides. Less headbanging near the front and you probably wont get much if any if your tall. (Im only 5 6)
11. The Dark Knight
I enjoy the theming, I love that this coaster includes theming in the ride; I wish sfga would use more theming in their rides. I also love the fact that we have the option of an indoor coaster. Sometimes you just want a break from the weather without taking a break from the coasters. I will usually hit this coaster at some point to get indoors.
12. Spacely Sprocket's Rockets
This is the perfect starter coaster.
Edit: So long Ragin' Cajun.
A wild mouse coaster enhanced by a spinning car.

Haven't been on Superman:UF and don't really have much desire to. The flying rides, either Vekoma or B&M don't really do anything for me aside from give me a massive headache.
