A place to talk about roller coasters and parks that have them. Everyone is welcome here to both learn and to celebrate these magnificent machines designed to scare you.

Here are some important resources:

Images are welcome if they are of high quality and it doesn't get out of hand. Please use PostImages to upload your image and then use that link in the URL field of your post (other image sites are permitted but Post Images has the best policies and compatibility).

Some basic rules:

Opinions, theories, and facts are all welcome – but be clear about what you’re saying.
Back up facts with sources as much as possible
No spam or sell-promotion. Linking to your own media or site is permissible only if it’s specifically related to a topic/post that someone else created.
No photos or videos taken on the rides. This is dangerous and shouldn't be encouraged.
Limit political discussion. When discussed it must be park related.
No fictional coasters (models, no limits, planet coaster, etc)
No posting personal information.
No shaming of anyone. We all can continue to learn and not everyone knows everything -- and that's ok.

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:

#1 - Voyage - Holiday World

#2 - VelociCoaster - Universal Studios Islands of Adventure

#3 - Mystic Timbers - King's Island

#4 - El Toro - Six Flags Great Adventure

#5 - Iron Gwazi - Busch Gardens Tampa

#6 - Ravine Flyer II - Waldameer

#7 - Skyrush - Hersheypark

#8 - Twisted Timbers - King's Dominion

#9 - Intimidator 305 - King's Dominion

#10 - Phantom's Revenge - Kennywood

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

So many coasters on this list that I wish I could get over the pond to ride...... FLY is probably the biggest one for me.

If its any consolation, there are many entries on your list I wish I could ride! I've just started planning a US east coast trip for next year with some friends so we're hoping to hit King's Dominion, BGW and SFGAdv (and maybe Nick Universe and Coney Island) but it's still early days so hopefully we can get a plan together.

It's the frustration of this hobby 😂

As you plan your trip I'd seriously consider a tour of the parks in Pennsylvania. There are so many gems hiding at little places that don't get mentioned a lot. Knoebels is a must visit park if you're over here..... But Waldameer, Lakemont and Kennywood have serious gems.... That's not even mentioning the mecca that is Hersheypark.

If you have any questions as you plan your trip I'll be happy to help.... The east coast is my domain lol.
