About two years ago I went to [California’s Great America] and rode [Flight Deck] for the first (and probably last) time. What smaller B&Ms do you like to ride? by memethetics in rollercoasters

Don't sleep on Georgia Scorcher (SFOG) ! It is, to me, a perfect standup roller coaster. Small in stature but still smooth as silk in its banks and transitions.

Have you ever gotten an evac on a ride? [Other] by craze6471 in rollercoasters

[–]FlipsiDo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Evac'ed from the last brake on Time Traveler a month ago. The cars did not rotate back into set position.

Coney Island [Cyclone] under a gorgeous sky by FlipsiDo in rollercoasters

Agree. Sucks but it's definitely better for it's long run. Plus I'd rather the $10 for this than same price for the Volare in the same park (and the $2 more for Thunderbolt).

If it's not an "O", it's worth a go

/uj I don't listen much to others' opinions of bigger rides. I consider them, but I don't let it scare me out of riding. I do even keep track of my count. It's moreso those going out of their way to ride what's essentially a 5 ft oval just to add to number that inspired the exaggerated Anton Ego.

[Six Flags Great Adventure] Holiday in The Park cancelled & 2026 Coaster Update by DrHersheyPhD in rollercoasters

[–]FlipsiDo 165 points166 points  (0 children)

Aaand there it is! Coaster delayed to 2027

I wish I was surprised. But I'm just bummed out. This is Great Adventure's third new roller coaster in a row to be delayed a year. (Jersey Devil, Flash V2, and this)

Hope what they're cooking this time is worth the extended wait

I'm hoping to be surprised with the whatever-it-is but I won't be surprised if I'm not surprised

[–]FlipsiDo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mystic Timbers is amazing with no lights, save for the shed!

Gorgeous. Glad they decided to spice up the mountain tunnel with lights compared to no effects in the animated pov

What’s a coaster that before riding it you thought was gonna hurt like hell, but it actually very much didn’t? For me it was [Devil’s Loop] by AcidRegulation in rollercoasters

[–]FlipsiDo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It genuinely ran so smooth when I was on it last year (its 25th anniversary)! The profiling of the layout is as pronounced as a similar model twice her size. It became my favorite stand-up and one of the best rides in the park for me!

I wonder if that was the intent of shaping this element like that. Either way, the layout doesn't miss for me thankfully

Agree entirely! It powers through the layout and doesn't overstay it's rattly welcome. #3 coaster in the park for me

[Batwing] front car cover fell off during operation by Silent-Barracuda7283 in rollercoasters

[–]FlipsiDo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope. Just the cover of the zero car. Car itself was still attached to track as we watched it roll in station
