Must Ride Short List

[JimPanky]

What is your must ride short list?
For me its:
B&M's: BTR, RB, XF, SUF
V2
Flats: giant drop, king chaos, American revolution
Basically the most intense rides.

[JimPanky]

After this topic slows down I'll total up how many times each ride was chosen.

[kossdude1]

COASTERS: Superman, Batman, V2, American Eagle, Demon, X-Flight, Viper, Raging Bull

FLATS: Orbit, Fiddler's Fling, King Chaos, Revolution

TOWER RIDES: Sky Trek Tower, Giant Drop

[BBH]

For flats, it's King Chaos and Giant Drop.

[GoBears]

American Eagle, X-Flight, and Viper.

[PfightingPolish]

Been thinking and thinking about this and my answer is: Nothing.

Considering we go about once a month, nothing has a line so long that it's worth waiting too long for. If we don't get it one trip, we get it another.

Granted, Pam will always want to ride Bull and Viper and I will always want to ride X-Flight, Superman and Eagle. But I'm not afraid to skip Superman if the line sucks and Pam is the same way about Bull.

So ... nothing.

I log onto this site almost every day. I don't think I've posted in months. Rarely do I see a good topic or discussion. But this, this is good.

Coasters would have to be Bull, X-Flight, and Eagle.
Flats would have to be Revolution, Bumper Cars, and Fiddlers

[DeathbyDinn]

I'm in the same boat was PfightingPolish, my must ride list is nothing.
That being said, I would say for most of my visits I ride, or try to ride Batman, X Flight and AE Red, but have no problem skipping them for whatever reason.

[tribar]

^I agree as well. Nothing in the park is worth a full queue.

[DejaVu2001]

^ I used to wait in a full queue for Whizzer back when it had a decent crew and the line only took 45 minutes with 3 trains. Now, not so much

[SFGAm#1Fan]

Must rides for me are...
Coasters: RB, X-Flight, BTR, AE (preferably Red)
Flats: Drop, KC, Revalution

[CoasterNick3157]

Must Rides with minimal wait.

Coasters: X-Flight, American Eagle Red, Raging Bull.

Flat Rides: Fiddlers Fling, Condor, Revolution

[ihauntu2]

Coasters: Raging Bull, Demon, Viper, X-Flight

Flats: Condor, King Chaos, Revolution, East River Crawler & Rue le Dodge

Don't Judge me, after 4 hours on the road including the full pain of 294, I have some road rage issues. That & my daughter is very competitive at bumper cars. Plus Rue is the only setup where you can make a car skip with a well placed hit.

[JimPanky]

1. X-Flight 17
2. American Eagle 14
3. Viper 12
4. Raging Bull and King Chaos11
6. Batman: The Ride 10
7. American Revolution and Giant Drop 8
9. Triple Play 5
10. Superman Ultimate Flight, Vertical Velocity, Condor, Fiddler's Fling, and Triple Play 4
15. Demon, Whizzer, and Orbit 3
18. Sky Trek Tower, Rue Le Dodge, East River Crawler and Ricochet 2
22. Ragin Cajun, Chubasco, Rapids, Loggers Run, Whirligig, and River Rocker 1

[Ilovthevu']

I love Sharpiro's creation: Bench the Ride... Gotta get on that everytime at the park. lol

[RollerCoasterFanatic]

I'd have to say...

Coasters:
Raging Bull, Viper, V2.

Flats: Giant Drop, King Chaos, Triple Play.

[JimPanky]

1. X-Flight 17
2. American Eagle 14
3. Viper 12
4. Raging Bull and King Chaos11
6. Batman: The Ride 10
7. American Revolution and Giant Drop 8
9. Triple Play 5
10. Superman Ultimate Flight, Vertical Velocity, Condor, Fiddler's Fling, and Triple Play 4
15. Demon, Whizzer, and Orbit 3
18. Sky Trek Tower, Rue Le Dodge, East River Crawler and Ricochet 2
22. Ragin Cajun, Chubasco, Rapids, Loggers Run, Whirligig, and River Rocker 1

So X-Flight topped the list; no surprise there.
Our woodies took 2nd and 3rd.
Raging Bull and King Chaos tied for 4th. King Chaos is one of the best flat rides. Im surprised so many people in the next-to-go poll think it is on it's way out.

No mention of Scenic Railway, Columbia Carousel, Yankee Clipper, Little Dipper, or Spacely's Sprocket Rockets.
