    I do love Carowinds. Of the three home parks (not including Fun Spot Atlanta) of mine -- Carowinds, Six Flags Over Georgia, and Dollywood, Carowinds is my favorite. To be repetitive here -- I am one of the minority as well who really likes Nighthawk. I'm glad that you and your brother agree that it's a really good coaster. Thunderstriker is always a good time, especially when the trims are taking a nap. Another coaster like Nighthawk that gets too much unnecessary hate. Fury is priceless -- such a perfect coaster. Currently, my most-ridden coaster and my 5th favorite. Front row rides on Fury are phenomenal -- I feel like I'm sitting on the nose of a passenger jet. It's one of the few coasters that I find to have such vastly different ride experiences in the front and back rows. I love the back row for the incredible floater air time that you don't get as heavily in the front. And then, I love the front row for the insane speed and power that you won't experience as much in the back. For these reasons, I love the front and back rows equally, where I tend to prefer either the front or back row on the majority of coasters I ride. Copperhead Strike is such a fun ride for so many reasons. And Afterburn, to be repetitive again, is one of my favorite B&M inverts, and honestly, one of my favorite coasters. I don't know, it may be tied with Fury as my most ridden coaster. The batwing and the corkscrew are two of the most aggressive inversions on any coaster I've ever experienced. For me, Afterburn is a perfect coaster. I can't find one thing lacking in its layout. Enjoy your time hiking in my "homeland" with your family. I've lived most of my life in Asheville, NC -- so the mountains of western North Carolina are very familiar to me.

    I just got back from this park. They have a fantastic coaster lineup with a GOATed top 4 and sleeper supporting coasters.
    A ton of the supporting cast have bad reputations but Nighthawk, Vortex, Gold Rusher, and Hurler are actually very good rides.

    I was just at Carowinds a week ago! We drove there from asheville in the morning which took a couple of hours, so we got to the park around 12, got 4 rides on Fury, and then the park basically shut down due to thunderstorms in the area LOL. We got a nanocoaster of Fury, left to get some lunch, and then it started to look like the rain was clearing up. We headed back into the park around 7pm and were able to get on nighthawk, (which I also think is EXTREMELY underrated), Copperhead, Afterburn, Intimidator, and we ended the night on 2 night rides on Fury! Man that ride is so good. Overall its my #2 behind Velocicoaster, but Fury in the front at night was the best single ride I've ever had. Glad to hear you had an awesome day!

    I absolutely love your brother. I think he’s precious. Your mama seems like a sweetheart. My mom used to ride with me back in the day. Sooo many pics of us on rides like flight of fear, KI, the Beast, King Cobra, SOB. She’s 68 now and not able to. She hasn’t rode coasters since 2002. She’s never gotten to see these hyper/giga coasters in person. It’s a sight to behold in person. For real!!!!!!! She even rode the drop tower with me bf at KI. I told her, these new coasters are so smooth. We came the year Vortex opened in 87 and in 2002. But hasn’t seen anything since. I do believe tho, she wud ride them with me if she was able. She wud love them. It’s so awesome that you get to ride big ass rollercoasters with your mom and brother. I’m an only child. So 🤦🏼‍♀️ great video.

    Im so glad im not the only one who loves nighthawk. I went in 2022 in march and thought that was the best coaster there. Fury was underwhelming. I thought the treble clef was the only thing that was different from other gigas. Also the helix was boring and maybe it was running slow that day. Copperhead was ok but the restraints dont allow for good airtime. Afterburn was great and intimidator was good.

      I mean, CP is my home park, and I think it might be a little over hyped. Maybe it's because I'm there so much, but there is a lot they could do differently/better. Like I said though, maybe it's the 50 plus times I'm there every year. Honestly, last year, of the Cedar Fair parks, we had the best time at Kings Dominion between CP, KI, Carowinds, and KD.

    Nighthawk has a good double loop but it’s issue is the corkscrew. I ride it once; in the back row. Perhaps I should have ridden it in row 4 instead. Intimidator aka Lighting Striker is best in the back car. I rode Fury 325 97 times in the three days and four hours I was there in mid April 2023. I like it best in the front left and is my favourite coaster I’ve ridden after Steel Vengeance in the back car. I like Copperhead Strike best in car 3 rows 5 and 6) and I like Afterburn best in the back left seat; (since the right side gives me headbangs) Love the park, Thanks for posting!

  • @Paolo8772
    @Paolo8772 Před měsícem

    Fort Mills and Kings Mills are very similar to coaster enthusiasts. Fury 325 is my favourite coaster I’ve ridden after Steel Vengeance. I rode it 97 times in the 3 days and 4 hours of a fourth day I was there in mid April 2023 where I met Brandon of Theme Park Recommendations and El Toro Ryan at Copperhead Strike.

    • @Spike-sk7ql

      Ha!!! I was there that weekend, and got a bunch of rides on Fury, and met Brandon, and El Toro Ryan at Intimidator that morning! We were there with some friends in our Kings Island group. Had a blast, but we actually stayed too long. I could have used another day at KD, and not go to KD, and Carowinds a week before Kings Island opening weekend. That was a long 12 days away from home.
