COASTERDASH AT DOLLYWOOD!!
Really wish you could of gotten to ride it full Topper Track. Word is it will be all ibox by next year.
It is what it is, but it sure did look amazing in its topper form
kick ass vlog bro, keep uploading like this coasterdash 🔥
ayy thanks man! i’m trying my best 🙏🏻
Dollywood is an amazing park. I love the video man. I don't think Lightning Rod is overrated but I do think Wild Eagle is underrated. Great video, thanks man.
11:47 OMG WATCH OUT FOR THE NO BANKING LATERALS 🥵🥵😱
bro it’s so intense 😭
These have been really fun thanks for taking us on vacation with you🙂.xoxomarianne
Thank you!! I’m glad you’ve been enjoying the vlogs 😄
Great video and great Vlog! It's great that you got the Lightning Rod credit and to ride those other fun coasters. Dollywood is close to Knoxville, TN and not to far from Nashville and Chattanooga so I wouldn't completely say it's in the middle of nowhere though.
Thank you! We were surprised by the amount of trees and nothingness surrounding pigeon forge. think less literally 😉
@@CoasterDash There's a lot of trees and forests around where I live in southern Ohio close to Kentucky and West Virginia too. All it is is small cities at the biggest around here. Glad you had a good time ! 😊😄
We are coasterdashers now 😎
as a north alabamian this and sfog are the closest things i have to home parks and theyre both over 3 hours away lol
I’ve realized that Alan schilke designed Tennessee tornado this guy knows how to make legendary coasters
Hershey, Kings Dominion, Carowinds and Dollywood. Wow your hitting up all the east coast
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I drove by here once on a trip to 4 Cedar Fair parks and skipped it due to time constraints. This was the summer Lightning Rod came out. I feel I made the wrong choice.
you definitely did. I’ll take Dollywood over every cedar fair park with the exception of Cedar Point
@@CoasterDash so would it be in your top 5 parks?
@@CoasterDash also, I instead went to Great Smoky Mountains National Park that day. Based on my experience, that was a mistake.
hold on they have a SRL for LR
but i used Dollywood as a compensation for being stuck in traffic for 45 minutes at the VA TN state line instead of going to a braves game (which a HS buddy of mine was pitching in (for the visiting Cinicnati Reds).
Magic Mountain is getting a raptor I am so excited!!
I saw! So stoked
My first time riding all of dollywood was today, and it so happens to be my birthday
that’s awesome, happy birthday man 🙌🏻
TBF, if you rode lightning rod before the 2021 changes you would rank it higher
11:49 holy shit dude I grayed out just watching it! What an insane ride!
that’s what i’m saying it’s intense asf
Ya know, you could come back to Carowinds
I literally did the next day 😂
@@CoasterDash ANOTHER VLOG???. Also, U SHOULD TELL ME ID 100% GO WITH YALL
@@ArtiicXD Were back in Jersey now lol. but no, I didn’t vlog the second, shorter visit to Carowinds
I’m going to dw in like a week also L ROD ABOVE ALL ELSE
Have fun! You’ll love the park. I don’t agree with “lrod above all else” though, I find it the slightest bit overhyped lol
@@CoasterDash yep I do love the park
We have an historic update from Magic Mountain in California.
I saw! I can’t wait for our raptor 🥰
@@CoasterDash Can't wait for Magic Mountain's 20th coaster.
I forget now. Did you say you were gonna visit Kings Island this trip?
Not this trip
Before I trigger everyone in the comments, Lightning Rod is not as good as it used to be. It used to be my 2nd favorite RMC (right behind Steve) but over time, it has become a bit slower and rougher (still love it but it's a bit overrated). Currently, my RMC rankings (of the ones I've ridden) is:
Steel Vengeance
Twisted Timbers
LRod
Twisted Cyclone
Goliath
Storm Chaser
Man, you ain't giving Trevor any camera time😂...i need to check Dollywood out soon. Btw, what is your homepark?
My bad my bad 😭😭😭
My home park is SeaWorld San Diego 🎢
Lightning Rod isn't wooden anymore, so Zadra's better because it's huge and Wildfire is not RMC's best wooden coaster.
coasterdash, i think that penguin’s blizzard river is the best ride at six flags america. based 💯 or nah?
💯
nah fireball #1 for sure 💯
How does the Cinnamon Bread Compare to the Apple Fries?
That’s a very difficult question. I’ll have to put more thought into which I like more
That’s fair. Did u have a 6 Flags day at America?
actually, no. Six Flags America was great
Who is that blonde you are with? Your little sister?
That is his friend Sam (nicknamed Wooden Warrior Girl) with the glasses and straight hair. The other blonde girl is Skylar with the ponytail.
I have three little sisters actually. Sammy, Skylar and Trevor
lrod was ruined by ibox, it ran way faster with the topper, sad that you didnt get to see it at its best
that’s sad to hear. still a wonderful ride though
@@CoasterDash definitely, I don't doubt that
If it wasn't for this stupid pandemic, I'd probably be going there this year. But unfortunately we had to push our Boston trip from last year to this year instead. F.....K COVID.
wait, so you had to push it back to this year but still can’t go this year? i’m confused
@@CoasterDash No I said I was supposed to head to Boston last year to visit Six Flags New England, Lake Compounce and maybe Canobie Lake Park but couldn't so now we have to go there instead of here as a result.
Lrod is kinda trash because it isn’t a strata, it has a boring and repetitive layout, it doesn’t even have 2 miles of track, the quad down delivers weak floater, and the launch might as well have been made by mack rides. i MIGHT have liked it if it had at least some mild ejector airtime but it didn’t so its trash. dollywood should have gotten a clone of valravn smh
