my top two probably have to be Nemesis and Black Mamba, both are VERY intense, with the addition of being mostly in trenches and underground (especially Black Mamba, Phantasialand does NOT skimp on theming) so it genuinely feels like there's a risk of having your legs chopped off. A sleeper pick of mine would be Flight Deck at CGA, which unfortunately got that new paint job that isn't quite as intimidating as the all-black color scheme it used to have. It's very short, yes, with only 3 inversions, but it does NOT slow down during the entire layout, and that last helix over the water feels like it's going to rip your legs off.

Only rode a few B&M's so far, but they've all been great. Favorite looper is Manta, it's just so much fun to fly with the setting, speed, inversions and crazy pretzel loop! Hulk, Montu, and Kraken are all really good rides too. You said you needed a few rides to fully appreciate Montu. I only got 1, so when I go back for Iron Gwazi (and SheiKra, that was closed) I'll certainly ride it again! Kumba is my least favorite B&M so far, but it's still a good ride. My only problem with it is it has an awful rattle that gave me a headache for a few days... Maybe it's better in a different seat/train though. I look forward to riding more B&M loopers in the future, like Afterburn, SheiKra, Wild Eagle, Superman, Batman, Scorcher, and Vortex (wait, not that one)

I definitely like Medusa too, but its honestly a bit too graceful for me to rank it higher than Rou.

What's better than Montu ? If you like strong and majestic layouts with world class inversions (Katun's cobra roll is pure ecstasy), substantial pacing, stunning theming and barely no brakes, well Katun is your pick here. And there's also OzIris. It's surely less intense, but much more subtle and balanced. There's a tiny airtime in a tunnel between the loop and the Imelmann which contrasts with the positive G's of those 2 inversions : it's absolutely lovely !

I have some friends that list Georgia Scorcher as their favorite ride in the park. I loved it when I was a kid just barely tall enough to ride it, but now I wish they would at least convert it into a floorless. Ideally, they would just build a new ride there. It could still be floorless, and they could add in one of those massive loops like Dominator and Superman Krypton, inch a little bit closer to Mind Bender, maybe cross the road like Goliath. I doubt that will happen soon, but man would it be nice to have a better ride there.

My favorite B&M looper is.........Kumba! I always go back and forth between it and Montu but last November Kumba was running incredible.

The hate for Vortex. Ouch lol that was my first coaster so it'll always be sentimental to me. As for my favorite B&M loopers. Great Bear is my favorite inverts and Bizzaro is my favorite floor less.
@razor.2.rosary3 жыл бұрын
Great Bear looks weird and nothing special on the surface, but imo those inversions are forceful (holy crap that zero g), that opening helix is surprisingly forceful, and who can get over that roar? a work of art from B&M, especially considering their restrictions (unable to build supports in the creek).
@forlone_li2 жыл бұрын
B&M have made some great casters outside of America as well. In England, we have a VR tide (we'll not anymore but originally did. Kinda at the start it had no vr, then it was turned into having vr then most of the headsets were dozen which ended up with like 0 vr headsets.) We also swarm which is the second wing coaster to be built and the only one in the UK. I wish we had some good rides over here but we stick to the great themings.

When Chris has more Vekoma Credits than all your Credits :| Makes me so mad when you say Superman is a must ride because this last weekend I couldn’t ride it due to two hour lines and breaking down and I know I won’t be back for a while. Looked awesome, great video!

Carowinds is my home park and I know I’m in a super minority here, but Vortex is actually a pretty fun ride. There is definitely an art to the standup restraints, but if you know how to wear them there is a lot of enjoyment to be had. It’s a really unique experience to ride front row while standing up, and honestly I’ve been on B&M’s with much worse rattles. There’s rarely ever a line and I find myself riding it when I’m switching between Fury and Intimidator almost every opportunity I get. It’s certainly not a masterpiece, but I would miss it if they took it out.

Georgia Scorcher is by far the best standup. I’d put it well above many on your best list. It has tons of airtime in the back and it’s super smooth.

@@bandmfanboy Yep, the only one I haven't been on is Vortex at Carowinds. Riddler is good, but Scorcher is more forceful and has some legitimately powerful airtime.

@@WapoStudios Riddler has a nice roar that you can feel in your feet in the ride vehicle and it's pretty intense: I always gray out. There's this one moment on Riddler after the first corkscrew and turn in front of a facade that gives great floater-ish airtime. It's built like a speed hill on the newer hypers and gigas.

Hello, it is I, the alpengeist fanboy! My favorite B&M looper right now is actually kumba, followed by the incredible hulk, and the trio of inverts I've ridden. The inverts are alpengeist (obviously), montu, and great bear. I've ridden others, but these rides are in my top 10 out of about 53 credits

My only b and m coaster is a Batman clone at SFSL. I enjoy it a lot and its my second favorite coaster in the park. First is the screaming eagle. But that's mostly for sentimental reasons as it was my first coaster ever. Gave me a love of coasters of the wooden type

I went to Busch Gardens again after a few years and I am convinced that there is no other ride in Florida better than Montu, its not the smoothest ride but that makes it so much better and it has that beautiful sound, I'd say it is a must ride
