I could not agree more I thought it was barley behind rides like Steel Vengeance and Velocicoaster that drop is just so good an the quarry wall section is pretty well paced.
Totally agree on Lightning Racer on how the ride is treated. When I became an enthusiast in 2016, this thing was called one of the best wooden roller coasters in the world, not just America. When I rode it I loved the ride. When people started hating on this ride I was surprised! I like how the park actually takes the racing aspect seriously and I love when a wooden coaster has a wooden structure as well! Just makes the ride look massive.
Thank you for giving Cyclone some love! It’s one of those rides like Phoenix that just builds and builds as it goes along. Relentless laterals and sooo much stand-up airtime. Without a doubt one of the best in North America that more thoosies should come and appreciate.
Appreciate you giving Intimidator a shoutout...I finally rode it for the first time just two days ago and was impressed by its speed, smoothness and great airtime. I watched a few Carowinds videos beforehand to best prepare our visit (knowing Fury 325 is wordclass), and most videos didn't really give Intimidator much credit. Well, it was inoperable for the first half of the day, but when it opened, the queue non-existent as I walked on to the front row with no wait. Although it's not as intense as Fury, I was surprised by how good of a coaster it was!
I love that you said riding Cyclone is a "hilarious experience" because every ride I've had on it, I cannot breathe because I'm laughing so hard lol No other coaster has done that to me haha
Stormrunner is easily the most underrated coaster Ive ridden. It has 80% of the airtime of skyrush, but with much better "filler" elements, and hydraulic launches are stupid fun. Also Wicked's zero g roll gives powerful and sustained flojector airtime throughout the entire roll, and craps over any inversion on Twisted Colossus or Twisted Timbers.
80% of the airtime of skyrush ? The top hat is def great in the back row and the snake dive has great laterals and I love the ride all around but def not even close to 80% of the airtime of skyrush. That things like a bucking bronco with it ejector trying to throw you out of the train. I’m happy to have them both at my home park and I’m happy I get to ride them both a few times a week though both great rides
I feel Batwing gets more praise as it stands out more at its park. Flying Dutchman's as a whole are fun (and very forceful) rides, but are very much a prototype design filled with jank. Their restraints, backwards flying system, and terrible capacity even with a switch track. Still, their vertical loops are amazing!
I feel like Silver Bullet at Knott's Berry Farm needs some love, it's a really good inverted B&M and the lines rarely get over 20 minutes. How does Coast Rider get more love than Silver Bullet when Silver Bullet is a very good B&M invert and Coast Rider is just a wild mouse that will kill your legs.
Goliath @ SFOG is a killer! One of the greatest rides ever to be called "mid-tier." Crazier that it's no longer the best ride in the state, imo. Those ninth row rides are insane, so many different types of forces at max level, and its pace is more akin to an RMC or Intamin than other B&Ms. I never got the "roughness" thing. It's my home B&M hyper and in my experience I have to really focus to notice any kind of rattle. It's there, but I feel it's greatly exaggerated by enthusiasts. Some of you don't ride woodies and it shows. At 71 credits, it's my favorite B&M hyper over Mako and Intimidator. (Sacrilege time -- I have it over Fury in my rankings, making it my favorite B&M coaster. I don't think I got good rides on Fury).
I rode Bullet when it was at Circus World in Florida and was called Weiner Looping. It had lapbars only at the time and was super cool! Feel privied to have such a rare credit.
I really enjoyed Lightning Racer both times I've ridden it, I appreciate the uniqueness of a Twister dueling coaster as opposed to an out an back like most are. Even on T3, I've thought the layout of the SLC was far from the problem, the execution of late 90s Vekoma did the ride model in. I haven't been on Great Nor'Easter but I could see it being a very solid ride.
It takes me two hours to get from my doorstep to the front gate at Carowinds -- so, I consider it to be one of my home parks (though that may be a bit of a stretch). It has been my most visited park - grew up going to it, and presently I go there regularly. I ride Nighthawk and Intimidator all the time -- so, I love that you have both of them in this ranking. I commented before on one of your other videos of how I firmly believe that Nighthawk is underrated -- actually criminally underrated. I have no complaints about this coaster whatsoever -- it's never been rough all the times that I've ridden it over the years. I love how disorienting it is. I love the flying sensation that it provides -- and the vertical loop is a great inversion -- love it. Good, fun coaster. I'm a big defender of Intimidator (coincidentally, as I'm writing this I'm wearing an Intimidator T-shirt). I've ridden it many times where the trims have been unnoticeable, and when they are, I really don't care. I love this coaster, trims and all. I don't think Intrimidator is a plausible nickname for it. The first drop gives me that great falling sensation in my gut almost as heavily as the first drop on Fury. The coaster maintains good speed for the first half of its layout, which I appreciate. I love the high camel back hills that provide great floater airtime. The turnarounds in the first half of the ride are great. Yes, the coaster does die down after the mid-course brake run, but the first half of the ride has been so good that I don't really mind -- and it still has some fun enough moments in the second half. I think Intimidator is a great coaster, and my third favorite at Carowinds after Fury and Afterburn. I rode the Coney Island Cyclone at Luna Park when I was eleven years (I think it was 1980), and it was the most frightening roller coaster ride of my life -- both my brother and I came very close to being ejected from the train -- and I mean that literally. It was the first time in my life that I had ever felt fearful of my safety when riding a roller coaster. That coaster threw my brother's body and my body all over the place. We spent almost no time planted in our seats throughout the entire ride. We were both holding on for dear life until the break run. We were both about to cry. I thought it was going to be like riding any other wooden roller coaster I had ridden up to that point, but I was heavily mistaken. It was relentless and truly terrifying for me at the time. I'm looking forward to going down to Six Flags Over Georgia this spring -- can't wait to ride Goliath. It looks like a great coaster -- and I've heard a lot from others about it being a top-notch hyper coaster.
I've been to Hersheypark quite a bit in my life and I agree with your views on lighting and thunder and Fahrenheit Thanks for giving them more attention
I honestly think Hershey has the single best lineup. Parks like CP and MM have a lot of filler coasters just to have a coaster. Rides like Gemini, Corkscrew, Rougarou etc. but Hershey all their rides are very solid and good. Especially with WR opening later this year all their rides can be top 3 in most parks.
Magic mountains lineup is pretty stacked through and through tho. Obv theres a few fillers but X2, Tc, Riddlers, Superman, Tatsu, WCR, Full Throttle, and apocalypse are pretty goddamn elite
Bruh MM has X2 , Tatsu , TC and full throttle. Compare those coasters to Hershey parks coasters and it ain’t even close lol the only good ride you can brag about is skyrush lol. But hey you are getting an RMC so that’s good.
I thought Goliath SFoG was high rated. In fact people now calling Arie the best coaster in the state has me confused if I still want to go there. L Racer was THE big surprise on my first Hershey visit in 2011. The trick does lose punch after a couple of rides, but it's so amazing to see, intricate. And it had been so long since riding a like-new woodie.
Most people agree that Goliath has a great layout, but it's one of the roughest B&M Hypers. And of course people will prefer ArieForce One over Goliath, for the same reason they prefer Steel Vengeance over Diamondback, Iron Gwazi over Mako, and Zadra over Shambhala. It's ejector Vs floater.
I literally road lighting racer last night and I was so blown away I haven’t ridden it in years but last nights night ride was awesome the park was busy but it was literally a walk on, the back of the park was dead even Fahrenheit had a short wait. We didn’t even were able to stay on Lightning Racer and ride twice me and my fiancé were on thunder and his brother and wife were on lightning we raced twice and it was flying
My problem with Jersey Devil Coaster isn't the pacing, it's the bumpy ride. Every track segment seems to find with a little bump. I couldn't ride it more than twice, it was giving me a headache Great list!
YESSSS i agree so much on the flying dutchman’s. I went to Carowinds a few days ago and I LOVED nighthawk. I got a bad ride on Copperhead and due to no time to ride it later because of storms Nighthawk is my #4 there. Also on Intimidator. It was super fun!!! I got two rides on it in the back and I was astonished by the sustained airtime. Ejector on the drop, some floater and some flojector the rest of the way through consistently. Even the part after the mid course has one good forceful turn. Honestly it’s way closer to fury than people think
ABSOLUTELY agree about Vekoma Flying Dutchman coasters!! I just rode my first one, Nighthawk at Carowinds, a couple weeks ago, and while it was a bit janky, it was not rough or otherwise uncomfortable and was a VERY unique experience. Loved it!
I agree with the flying Dutchman’s. I rode nighthawk yesterday and while it was uncomfortable, it was so much fun going through the layout. I’d put it 5th in the park behind the big 4 while most people put it towards the bottom of their lists
I totally agree with that. While I liked Firehawk at King's Island more, I gotta love this for it still standing. It was definitely rougher than I thought and I did have a headache that day (due to spoiled food from my hotel) but I still loved it. It even had the longest wait in the park
Riddlers Revenge at MM is my #1 most underrated coaster. I genuinely think its the best B&M looper layout ever made and is glass smooth. I cant understand for the life of me why people dont like it.
As someone who has ridden it countless times, I’d agree that it’s underrated but disagree that it’s glass smooth. One of the shakier B&M’s imo but it has good and bad days.
I strongly believe Twisted Colossus has become criminally underrated these days. I rarely hear it getting the praise it deserves, and I really wish it didn’t get any of the hate.
I love the start of this: I'm visiting Carowinds for my very 1st time in less than 3 days. It's nice hearing a good review for my 1st Flying Dutchman. I'm so old: to me Flying Dutchman is the title to a Wagner opera. Intimidator is even more my kinda ride, but from what I've seen and experienced it looks to be a weak (albeit smooth) B&M hyper, but nothing I'd think is better than any other I've ridden, which all beat Leviathan. Yes, you heard me correctly: So far: for me Leviathan is worse than Behemoth, Raging Bull and Even Nitro. So I'm not exactly expecting Intrimidator (which I dislike more because of the layout than the trims) to exactly wow me to Behemoth level, especially when Fury 325 is supposed to BLOW EVERY B&M OUT OF THE WATER, and in the same park. So far the only coaster I've ridden better than Fury 325 is Steel Vengeance. But I don't know that yet, so I'll tell you after I've come back from Carowinds, which I'm planning on finally visiting for my 1st time from Tuesday though Friday this week. If you think the undersized B&M hyper Goliath at SFOG is underrated, consider Goliath at La Ronde in Canada's Six Flags Park. It has 3 untrimmed camelbacks after the initial drop and is also the world's most beautiful coaster to look at, even if it doesn't have the steep downward helix turnaround that the other Six Flags B&M junior hyper has. For me the best B&M hyper layouts are the two Goliaths, Diamondback and Silver Star combining their best elements into a into a Fury 325 sized sized layout. But I'l admit they're all based on coasters I've never even ridden, YET. Thanks for posting!
15. Only been on Nighthawk, didn’t love it but I’d give it another shot. Ride probably receives hate because it ain’t smooth lol 14. Haven’t ridden 13. Haven’t ridden 12. Definitely a fun ride, a little tame towards the end but the first half is great. I’d say best woodie in the park 11. Haven’t ridden 10. Haven’t ridden 9. RMC so ofc its awesome. It is probably the weakest RMC I’ve done personally but it’s still a blast and a good contrast to Toro. 8. I think the mine train had more airtime 7. Haven’t ridden 6. Haven’t ridden 5. Haven’t ridden 4. Haven’t ridden 3. Haven’t ridden 2. I liked it, but for some reason I wasn’t overly crazy about it. A great ride but I think it’s rated fairly based on my 2 rides 1. Haven’t ridden Nice list!
It’s likely, since i’m in Connecticut several times a year. I’ve loved Wicked Cyclone every time i’ve ridden it. Don’t know what people mean when they say it’s “slow”.
I really don’t like Lightning Racer at Hershey Park it’s definitely not rough but that helix kind of moment where the trains pass by each other you slow down so much it feels like an invisible trim pops up it kind of ruins it the beginning is fun though
So when you had Lynet at Farup Sommerland listed at #4, that got me wondering why only that one was on the list and not Anubis at Plopsa Land? Aren't they basically the same ride?
Lynet and Anubis’ layout are almost nothing alike. Anubis has a nearly identical layout to Dare Devil Dive at Six Flags Over Georgia. Perhaps that’s where you were confused.
Jersey devil coaster has gotta be the most brought up coaster when people talk about underrated coasters and that just blows my mind. I rode it last year and the first half was nice, but the ride just dies in the second half. There was also a constant rattle on one of my rides that was very uncomfortable. I feel like I’m the only person in the world who thinks that jersey devil coaster is overrated and I don’t understand the recent hype it’s been getting.
Usually I look at the date of years they came out in and if it’s an 80’s boomerang or 90’s slc without any changes it’s known to be a pretty bad ride however looking at later years the rides go from bad to just ok
HP is my home park and it's honestly OVERRATED. People seem to love it around here but it's kind of boring. I do agree with a lot of your picks though. Love Great NorEaster, Fahrenheit, Jersey Devil and Intimidator.
5:52 the Intimidator in Carrowinds Some of those They hate it because of that Life saving Trim Breaks because It gives lower airtime But for me that trim breaks is pretty important because the Limit for Minimum Vertical Gs is -2 Gs in a less than 0.2 sec Maybe the reason why they put That Trim Breaks is to Average the G Force Maybe thats why some if Rollercoaster Enthusiast Hurtfully and Painfully called it as InTRIMidator 🥺😭🐯🎢🦁😭🥺
Nice choice of music with the title-screen theme of Super Mario Galaxy 2 -- an excellent game!
One of my favorites!
Iron Rattler is mad underrated, people don't give it much love anymore when it is top 15 maybe even top 10
I could not agree more I thought it was barley behind rides like Steel Vengeance and Velocicoaster that drop is just so good an the quarry wall section is pretty well paced.
I agree
Iron Rattler is incredible, couldn’t agree more!
It’s nowhere near that good

You make a great point! I’ve never ridden Lightning Racer without both sides running. Duel every time 🤙🏻
@@CoasterDash old videos in the 2000’s it seemed to run so much faster
Lightning Racer isn’t underrated, it’s a weak GCI and still gets more attention than it deserves.

Considering Fahrenheit underrated after only 1 lap is great. It’s def underrated but I prefer to ride it in the rain it’s crazy fun in the rain

Nighthawk is a lot of fun! Not sure how it has a reputation for being one of the worst coasters in the world 😅
I still need to ride Batwing but I love the old Firehawk more then Nighthawk
YES i love under and overrated coasters series!
Maybe do it by material? (steel hybrid wood) (hybrid of any type)
Have you ever rode a coaster in the UK, they have a b&m invert called nemesis and its meant to be the most intense invert ever.
Some coasters I think are underrated are Orion, verbolten, new Texas giant, and nitro
I agree with the flying Dutchman’s. I rode nighthawk yesterday and while it was uncomfortable, it was so much fun going through the layout. I’d put it 5th in the park behind the big 4 while most people put it towards the bottom of their lists

Bro, i love your intro
Joker @SFDK is crazy underrated, it’s better than Twisted Colossus
I disagree that it’s better than Twisted Colossus, but agree that it’s very underrated!
Agree totally
The pier one is i believe the same as the coaster in Walibi but i dont know
Jersey devil/wonder woman are fun but I definitely prefer the prototype Raptors
Riddlers Revenge at MM is my #1 most underrated coaster. I genuinely think its the best B&M looper layout ever made and is glass smooth. I cant understand for the life of me why people dont like it.
As someone who has ridden it countless times, I’d agree that it’s underrated but disagree that it’s glass smooth. One of the shakier B&M’s imo but it has good and bad days.

But I don't know that yet, so I'll tell you after I've come back from Carowinds, which I'm planning on finally visiting for my 1st time from Tuesday though Friday this week.
If you think the undersized B&M hyper Goliath at SFOG is underrated, consider Goliath at La Ronde in Canada's Six Flags Park. It has 3 untrimmed camelbacks after the initial drop and is also the world's most beautiful coaster to look at, even if it doesn't have the steep downward helix turnaround that the other Six Flags B&M junior hyper has. For me the best B&M hyper layouts are the two Goliaths, Diamondback and Silver Star combining their best elements into a into a Fury 325 sized sized layout.
But I'l admit they're all based on coasters I've never even ridden, YET. Thanks for posting!

If you can, get out to six flags new england thus year. Wicked cyclone is hauling even on its 3rd lap!
It’s likely, since i’m in Connecticut several times a year. I’ve loved Wicked Cyclone every time i’ve ridden it. Don’t know what people mean when they say it’s “slow”.
I thought Nighthawk is a lot rougher than Batwing
I didn’t really think so 🤷🏻♂️
I really don’t like Lightning Racer at Hershey Park it’s definitely not rough but that helix kind of moment where the trains pass by each other you slow down so much it feels like an invisible trim pops up it kind of ruins it the beginning is fun though
So when you had Lynet at Farup Sommerland listed at #4, that got me wondering why only that one was on the list and not Anubis at Plopsa Land? Aren't they basically the same ride?
Lynet and Anubis’ layout are almost nothing alike. Anubis has a nearly identical layout to Dare Devil Dive at Six Flags Over Georgia. Perhaps that’s where you were confused.
I'm surprised that Leviathan didn't make it...
I love your channel and it is really cool to be the first comment
I'm the second comment

Jersey devil coaster has gotta be the most brought up coaster when people talk about underrated coasters and that just blows my mind. I rode it last year and the first half was nice, but the ride just dies in the second half. There was also a constant rattle on one of my rides that was very uncomfortable. I feel like I’m the only person in the world who thinks that jersey devil coaster is overrated and I don’t understand the recent hype it’s been getting.
Get used to the rattling. Every raptor has that and it sucks 😅
@@CoasterDash ok well even if it didn’t have that rattling issue, I still wouldn’t think that jersey devil coaster is underrated.
I feel some enthusiasts want a coaster to actually rip their face off and when they leave the ride still alive, they’re disappointed.
Honestly boomerangs and slcs are underrated. They arent like amazing rides but they definitely dont deserve all the hate they get.
Usually I look at the date of years they came out in and if it’s an 80’s boomerang or 90’s slc without any changes it’s known to be a pretty bad ride however looking at later years the rides go from bad to just ok
@@bigpoetothegibdo5987 I mean if you can get past the roughness, which never bothers me too much, they are pretty fun and intense rides overall.
Boomerangs, I lean yes. SLC’s, I lean no.
Cyclone is a top 5 wooden coaster it's better then El Toro.
I feel that raging bull is a lot more underated.
Though I haven’t ridden it, a lot of people have come around to Raging Bull. I think it’s fairly rated these days, which is always a good thing!
HP is my home park and it's honestly OVERRATED. People seem to love it around here but it's kind of boring.
I do agree with a lot of your picks though. Love Great NorEaster, Fahrenheit, Jersey Devil and Intimidator.
Talk slower.
5:52 the Intimidator in Carrowinds
Some of those They hate it because of that
Life saving
Trim Breaks because
It gives lower airtime
But for me that trim breaks is pretty important because the Limit for Minimum Vertical Gs is
-2 Gs in a less than 0.2 sec
Maybe the reason why they put That Trim Breaks is to Average the G Force
Maybe thats why some if Rollercoaster Enthusiast Hurtfully and Painfully called it as InTRIMidator
