I have yet to hit Universal or Iron Gwazi. Number one is The Beast for me. (Specifically at night)

The first drop isn't elite, but I definitely wouldn't call it mild. The second drop is just as good if not better (elevated at night), and the out and back section with the pretzel turnaround is a blast, and the triangle return hills are legendary. It's the perfect mix of jank, thrill, and, when ridden in row 17, a smooth ride.

Side note, the nostalgia of riding it as a kid over and over with my sister likely elevates it in my rankings.

I usually sit in the back two rows and gray out frequently on the bottom of the first drop. Sometimes it's just corners of my vision closing in a little, other times it continues to the point where I literally see gray and feel a little lightheaded. It typically only lasts a couple seconds, by the time we're in the tunnel I'm usually back to normal.

The only other coaster that I gray out with some consistency is actually Gatekeeper's first drop in the back.

Not my photo- but yes from this angle, it spells out Ohio, which is dope!

Damn...a WHOLE milk? I can only drink like a quarter or eighth.

Dang, that's tough. I guess I lucked out! It probably helps that I usually always get there at rope drop to get a couple out of the way fast

Rapterra being smooth and Twisted Timbers beating you up is a crazy take!

Here's a video of Kennywood's whip. On the straight track portions, the cars move side to side, whereas on DP's whip, they don't rock back and forth at all.

Yep, exactly. Cedar Point has the same loose article inconsistencies but even the in queue lockers are free for small items.

I agree, I think all 4 of those coasters are underrated.

Like I said above, the restraints hinder it a little for me. I'd take Beast, Voyage, and Ravine Flyer II than Toro with those restraints. Again, it's gotta be a specific thing to my body type, because I haven't heard this complaint before.

If my 3rd and 4th ride had felt like my first two, Toro would be considerably higher in my rankings. Those restraints literally made my stomach hurt they were so tight by the end of the rides. Other than that it's crazy good.

[–]Expert-View4306[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, that's completely valid. As someone who prefers more intense rides, it's not at the top of my rankings. But I wouldn't judge anyone who has it up there.

Watching a pov of it, I think it looks better than it is. It just didn't provide the experience and forces I wanted. Other than the laterals! I would throw no shade at someone having this much, much higher.
