Favorite Kings Island Coaster?

Question

okay. so what's everybody's favorite kings island coaster? and please tell why. don't just say the vortex. please give a reason. thanks =]

Answer 1

the new one they are putting in.. lol but now i love the son of beast.. only in the front or back though.. i love the shaking nad the first hill

Answer 2

The Beast.  Its the longest wooden coaster and its a great thrill.  Its a rather smooth wooden coaster and its fun and has big hills.

I also like the firehawk because the laying down part actually makes you feel like you're flying

Answer 3

without a doubt - Flight of Fear.  It has degraded some over the years and the themeing has changed but it is still a great coaster.  One of the best things on this coaster for a first time rider is the not knowing what it is.  Then you get up to the loading platform and see people get ready to ride and "bam" it's out of the station and into the darkness.  Then your waiting for the train to return and here it comes it rolls into the station and no one is in the train.  Gives that extra to the whole ride concept - where did they go?  Ok enough about the themeing, on with the ride itself.  The launch is one of the best elements to this ride.  Once launched before you know what is going on your upside down and in complete darkness.  After the MCBR it just feels like the train is completely out of control with the sudden turns and it feels like your traveling way too fast in the darkness.  As you near the end of the coaster there is one more suprise inversion (my personal favorite).  So to sum it up why it is my favorite is below:

1) the launch

2) complete darkness

3) out of control feeling

4) themeing pre cedar fair (when it was actually called the Outer Limits)

Answer 4

My favorite is Flight of Fear because of the launch, and the rest of the coaster is in total darkness.. I love love love launched coasters.

My other favorite is Vortex because of the airtime you get from going upside down so many times.

If I have to pick a favorite non-coaster: I'd definitely say the Drop Tower, my stomach does a double backflip and my palms sweat every time I look down from the very top, but the adrenaline rush is well worth it.
