You know that one special drop somewhere in the back half of the coaster that ejects you from your seat and makes you scream or laugh with delight? That's usually my favorite part of any coaster. As a kid my favorite drop was the one after the turnaround on the Screamin Eagle at SFSTL

 

Without question my current favorite is the 4th or 5th drop (I can't remember which one it is) on the RAVEN. This drop is a killer and causes me to favor this ride over the legend.

 

I'm so excited about the VOYAGE!!!!!!!! See you on opening day.

-Magnum XL 200, the hill before the pretzel turnaround.

-Blue Streak, that small bunny hill after the turn around

-Viper (SFGAm), the last bunny hill. You get a suprise pop of air with a headchopper.

-Pheonix, the double up in the front seat.

-GASM (SFOG), front seat on the first hill on the quarter turn.

-Roar (SFMW), the zero G turn thing.

-Riddlers Revenge (SFMM), the zero G hill near the trims.

Interesting topic!

 

I'd bet Cyclops will be mentioned a lot

 

There is a hill on Rampage, I don't know the number or anything (it's in the middle..) but it's definately an "OMFG" type of hill.

 

GA Cyclone - second drop (after the turnaround) in the back.. WOW!!

-The big drop on Cyclops. Sheer insanity.

-The double-down on the Jack Rabbit. Completely awesome.

-The drop from Texas Giant's mid-course brakes, particularly in the back seat

The drop on Raven is not a "literal Killer". It was the rider actions that led to her death. Something that has bothered me since the day it happened. Oh yeah my favorite drop is Timberterror's 3rd drop right after the double up. I can't wait until May to get back there.

- Viper: Double Down/Last Bunny hilll. Tons of air in both of those places.

- American Eagle: Drop coming out of first helix. While there are trims there, they don't impede the total abruptness of the drop- total ejector air.

It would appear that many people did not notice the "wooden" portion of the topic.

 

Either way...

 

Cornball - Drop down to the water, back seat, m'gawsh.

GA Cyclone - drop off of the second turn around, yikes.

Cornball's waterside drop in the back seat at night is probably one of the best anywhere. The 2nd & 3rd hills of Shivering Timbers are also rather nice.

 

I haven't really been on enough woodies to judge though. Hoping to get to the Dells and Holiday World next year though :o .

Without a doubt its that one drop on WildCat at HersheyPark, when the train passes that one spot of ejector air, and then dives down into that swooping turn in front of the station. Its so painful but so fun.

The 3rd hill on the Screamin' Eagle at SFSTL, when you hit the bottom of that hill itls like you pick up extra speed..

 

the third drop on Viper (SFGA) after the turn around. you get some great air on that one..

 

the 4th drop on the Boss (SFSTL) right after the break run..

Posted

THE drop on Ghostrider provides quite a bit of airtime.

 

All the other drops on the Pheonix. For some reason, there is no air on the first drop, but there is aloooooot on all the other drops.

Posted

DL's Space Mountain has this little drop that always catches me off guard--I never see it coming. (Since the recently finished rehab follows the same configuration, I assume it's still there.)

 

That last drop toward the river on the Big Bad Wolf at BGW is pretty cool, too.

The second drop on Thundercoaster a few years ago when it was still running fast. Now I have to agree with ncf. The third drop on Balder in the backseat is really good (and so is the rest of the hills )

*Cyclops' last drop, although the first is equally insane-if not more- IMO.

*HP Wildcat in general. Nice and twisted, yet packed with some nice air.

*Vortex's first drop.Yeah its a first drop, but how can you ignore that delicious floater air comming down it?

*King Cobra (RIP) drop into helix. You just get ejected at the crest, then are suspended in the air as you fly sideways, landing back in your seat midway through the curve.

*Hades in the tunnel. Gotta love not knowing when the pop kicks in...

Posted

"The drop" on Villain (when it was still in a good running condition) or the drop after the first turnaround on Raging Wolf Bobs in the back (in its current state). It may not look like much, but you first get thrown to the right, then you get launched into the air for the best moment I've experienced of lateral air.
