What's your favorite theme park ride in general?

[spas-ticShotty 3,584]

I'm surprised no one has made a thread like this yet (If I'm wrong, do tell me). Ever since Carowinds has opened for the season, I have something to look foward to do in my city. It has also sparked that on-&-off roller coaster interest that lies in me. I just want to know from you guys what's your favorite roller coaster, or your favorite ride if your those people who don't like roller coasters . My all time favorite is Millennium Force at Cedar Point. It goes 310 ft. into the air and goes at 96 mph. It was voted the best steel-coaster in the world last year by the Golden Ticket Awards (The most coveted theme park awards out there), so that tells you something . Here's a POV of it.

 

I also had to include my second favorite ride, Top Thrill Dragster (Also at Cedar Point). My first pic on the "post your picture" thread is me on that ride. It launches at 120 mph in only a few seconds up a 420 ft. top hat (Its the 2nd tallest ride in the world ) and back down . Only went on it twice due to ridiculous lines plus my irritation of the noise the hydraulics make on that ride. Everytime though, it was the most intense thing to have ever happen to me. That launch is incredibly fast, and you only have a seatbelt and a lap-bar to hold you down, which makes it all the more insane. An offride POV felt like the better choice to showcase this ride, so here it is .

 

Now share your favorite ride!

This one had me screaming like a little girl. Needless to say I went on it 3 more times.

Raging Bull was pretty rad. Same with Batman the Ride.

I've been on one similiar to it called Griffin, which is at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. It made my head hurt like a bitch though 'cause I always rode it after Alpengiest, and that ride has a good amount of intense elements to it.

 

Also, I found an even better off-ride POV of TTD. Here it is

Saying I only ever get to go on ride once a year, its thus -

Dayum that ride made my year

I can't ride roller coasters due to a medical condition.

Space Mountain

 

It's a classic that just can't be denied (unless you're an unlucky kid who saw the tracks in the light because of a technical issue while you waited in the queue)

 

Splash Mountain

 

Only because it was the very first ride I went on at Disney World ever. Soft place in my heart for it.

Nothing specific, but i generally enjoy the rides that spin you around really fast while moving.

My favorite ride would have to be the spinning cups in Disney Land. Ever since I was a little kid I loved that ride. You can never be too old for Disney (or for any theme park for that matter). I haven't been to Disney in 5 years, so hopefully my family would take my brother and I to the park. :3

My favorite ride so far has to be the Revenge of the Mummy ride at California, Universal Studios. Here's a video of it. I like how it goes fast in both the lines and the ride itself.

Not much of a theme parks person usually. As far as carnival rides, I was a fan of those gravitrons, where you spin really fast, get tilted sideways and stick to the wall. Those were fun. If water rides count, then I was definitely a fan of our local attraction, the world's longest water ride, The Black Anaconda.

I'll admit I'm a bit of a wuss when it comes to the big rides but I'm trying to work my way up. At the moment I can narrow down my favourite to two rides;

 

Space Mountain just because it's such a classic. It's not particularly intense but it's exhilirating to just go plunging into the darkness!

 

The other is Expedition Everest. It's just intense enough to be genuinely scary and it's varied throughout. The scariest part is when you go hurtling backwards into the pitch black caves inside the mountain!

 

My favorite ride so far has to be the Revenge of the Mummy ride at California, Universal Studios. Here's a video of it. I like how it goes fast in both the lines and the ride itself. 

 

I'm going to Universal Studios in a few months and I intend to do this ride but it's pretty nerve wracking just thinking about it (like I said, I'm a coaster wuss )

[Tom Snyder 4,112]

I can't say i have favorites, but the one i enjoy are these:

especially on a hot day, the wind makes me feel better, although the ride is short.

[Chara 1,565]

The Roller Coaster at WEM or West Edmonton Mall. Its better when you are backwards on this one.

I haven't really been to many amusement parks ^^; I'd say the best ride I've been on is Crystal Wing. It was really fun, and I rode it multiple times when I was at Happy Valley with my friends.
