ive never ridden a hyper/mega/giga/strata coaster

im going on a trip next year. while im on this trip im going to.(in chronological order)

Europa Park, Walibi World, Thorpe Park, SFGAdv, Cedar Point & SFMM.

Q1) which of these is the best

Q2) On halloweekends if im going all 3 days at cedar point. will i get to ride most things?

Q3)With hyper/mega/giga/strata coasters if ive ridden one of them (the first being silver star, Europa park, next goliath at walibi, then steath, then nitro and kingdaka, then magnum, millenium and top thrill, then goliath at sfmm) will it lose the fun value of the others?

  1. To answer your questions:

    Answer for question 1: All of them have something that the others dont. Cedar Point has the most to do with 17 roller coasters. SFGAdv has Kingda Ka and El Toro, among other coasters. SFMM has X2, and there is really no way to describe the greatness of that roller coaster. Walibi World supposedly has a better Goliath roller coaster than SFMM. and europa and thorpe park have their unique roller coasters.

    2. You should be able to. But of course you should plan your trip so you go on the maximum number of rides each day.

    and for 3. No. Some hyper/mega/giga/strata coasters are actually better than others.


  2. I live 5 minutes away from Cedar Point... I can't tell you about the other parks, but I know plenty about Cedar Point

    Q1)  Cedar Point has been named the best Amusement Park in the World by "Amusement Today" for the past ten years.  It currently holds the record for most roller coasters with 17 including the second tallest and second fastest in the world.  The one thing that I think Cedar Point has the puts it above the rest is that is directly on the shores of Lake Erie, with many of their coasters directly on the shore.  Its amazing when you are up in the air and can see a view of the Lake, and then when you drop it almost feels like you are going to crash right into it.  You will not be disapointed

    Q2)  Cedar Point is busy on Halloweekends.  If you plan on riding the more popular coasters (Raptor, Top Thirll, Magnum, Millenium, Mantis, Mean Streak, Maverkic) plan on doing so either early or late in the day... You can expect at least a 1 hour wait time for any of those rides, and more likely a 2 hour or more wait.  Early or late in the day will drop that time below an hour.  

    Even with there being wait times, you will get to ride most, if not all of the rides in the park in three days.

    Q3)You will not lose any value in riding all the coasters, each provides a totally different experience.  When you are travelling over 100 mph and dropping more than 400 feet, you will not notice a difference between a coaster that goes 100 mph and drops 405 feet and a coaster that goes 110 mph and drops 415 feet.
