So I discovered recently I’ve actually ridden over 100 coasters after downloading the coaster count app. I believe my 100th was, in fact, Scenic Railway at Dreamland Margate. But it’s super easy to lose count. So here’s a “cred” run down!
The most surprising coaster I’ve done has to be Wickerman. It’s the first coaster I’ve ridden and was left speechless when returning to the station. I had very little expectations for this coaster but it just offered everything more than I had expected. It just offers it all airtime, pops of intensity and all-round beautiful coaster. The theming is also insane!
I have two coasters which come to mind when thinking of “overhyping” they are Shambhala at PortAventura World & Megafobia at Oakwood. Both of which were very disappointing in my experience. But I’m definitely willing to try again with them both at some point in the future.
Speed at Oakwood & Millennium at Fantasy Island spring to mind. Both of which are fab. Speed is the best Gerstlauer we’ve ever experienced. The unique layout is beautiful and the airtime is something else. Millennium is beautiful and smooth. It’s so much more enjoyable then we expected it to be.
Wickerman, of course, is beautifully themed & the theming really does add an extra element of fun to the ride. The Swarm again gorgeously themed and the theming aspects really do impact the ride experience. Big Thunder Mountain at Disneyland Paris is gorgeously themed those indoor lift hill theming is beautiful!
Scenic Railway at Dreamland Margate no doubt about it. It was sat in my bucket list for years and to finally experience it was incredible. Not to forget it was a night time ride as well and it took me by surprise of how smooth it was! It was an absolute dream and pleasure to experience.
Currently my top 2 bucket list rollercoasters are Untamed at Walibi Holland. I’m yet to experience a RMC and this just looks beautiful. My second is Taron at Phantasialand again it’s been in my list for years! I love wooden rollercoasters & launch therefore my top 2 is easy!
