As many of you know my wife and I headed to Florida to take in the sun in celebration of our graduation. We were able to ride a couple of sweet roller coasters at Universal Studios and in celebration of our coaster riding I wanted to list my Top 10 Coasters I have been on. Here they are:
10. Superman: Ultimate Flight (Six Flags Great Adventure) This a flying roller coaster. You imagine you're flying and fly along the ground at high speeds.
9. El Touro (Six Flags Great Adventure) By far the best and fastest wooden coaster I have step foot in. The speeds are crazy. At the end of the ride I was pretty much in shock. Very smooth also which is usually a downside to wooden coasters.
8. Hulk (Universal Studios Island of Adventure) This coaster blasts you out of a tunnel into loop and corkscrewing track at high speeds. I looked down at my skin after and thought a saw a greenish tint.
7. California Screamin' (Disneyland California Adventures) Similar to the Hulk but the speeds if I remember right were faster and better.
6. Dueling Dragons (Universal Studios Islands of Adventure) Two coasters with dangling legs. Throughout the ride you see the other coaster and jet right at one of another before going into vertical loops.
5. Rip Ride Rock It (Universal Studios Orlando) A fast coaster where you pick the song to jam to throughout the ride. With Evanescence and Limp Bizkit rockin, my blood was pumping throughout.
4. Nitro (Six Flags Great Adventure) Massive first drop and the speeds never stop. Outside of King Da Ka (which was closed), the best ride in the park.
3. Deja Vu (Six Flags Magic Mountain) A feet dangling coaster the pulls you up backwards then drops you straight down before doing it all again backwards.
2. Goliath (Six Flags Magic Mountain) The biggest drop I have ever been on and it drops into a black smoking tunnel. One of the best in the world.
1. X2 (Six Flags Magic Mountain) This ride has it all. Speed, thrill, and might just make you wet your pants a little, ask my friend Nate Waddoups. The seats rotate circles while you fly at the fastest speeds I have ever experienced. An Amazing RIDE!!!!
Other note, two awesome rides that aren't coasters. Soarin' Over California at Disneyland and Test Track (Epcot). What is your favorite?

This made me full on laugh out loud. Apparently I have no good roller coaster history, but I hope your skin isn't green still.
Cedar Point is calling your name, Jeff! Millennium Force, Top Thrill Dragster, Magnum XL-200...just to name a few. (haha) I love Dueling Dragons too. As well as Rock N' Roller Coaster. I think that one is at MGM Studios. You listen to Aerosmith as you ride.
Krista,
I know Cedar Point is on my bucket list that is a definate. I will hopefully get there in the next year or two.

My favorite isn't a roller coaster. Mine is It's a Small World at Disneyland. ;-) Just Kidding! I don't know what my favorite is. I also liked dueling dragons, and the Hulk. I really want to go to Cedar Point since Krista talks about it all the time. That X2 I think it was looked awesome! I want to go on that someday as well.
