  • Indiana has corn, corn fields, wooden roller coasters, and even a wooden roller coaster themed to corn. In this video, I rank my favorite roller coasters in the Hoosier State that I've personally ridden both past and present. This includes all the currently operating roller coasters at Indiana Beach and Holiday World plus a few other rides scattered around the state.

      Honestly, it depends on the day. Dry, hot days SUCK on this ride. It makes it rougher and slower. A hot, humid day is alright, but not as fast or smooth as a rainy day. This ride is insane after a nice Indiana rain comes by.

    I was thinking of visiting Holiday World along with Kentuvky Kingdom and Kings Island in the same vacation (along with Great Wolf Lodge in Mason and Zoombazi Bay at the Columbus Zoo) but I can't decide if I want to include Indiana Beach in the same trip as well. I certainly want to visit Indiana Beach a lot more now that it's reopened but I am not sure about driving from one half of the state down to the other. I did the same thing in my first visit to Ohio by driving all the way from Sandusky to Mason and back and while I believe the drive was definietly worth it considering how great Kings Island and Cedar Point are, it was stilla drag and can't see myself doing that every time I'm in the state. I suppose I could stay in Indianapolis for a couple days and just drive north and back for Indiana Beach (and the Indianapolis Zoo) and then drive south for those parks I mentioned earlier. How far exactly are Indiana Beach and Holiday World from Indianapolis?

    • @CanobieCoaster

    Canobie Coaster said:
    13: Blue Too in John Iver's backyard. John Ivers originally wanted to create a roller coaster for his kids, but the original Blue Flash was a bit too intense. So he created a smaller roller coaster called the Blue Too.
    Imagine saying:
    really intense
    pretty intense
    very intense
    a bit too intense
    What are the differences between the four terms? What do you think?
