Carowinds Roller Coasters RANKED From Worst To Best!
Рет қаралды 76,357
Күн бұрынCarowinds offers 14 wild & AWESOME roller coasters and here is how I rank them, with a shocking surprise! Carowinds offers one of the most TOP HEAVY coaster lineups in the world, but is a must visit park due to rides like Fury 325, Copperhead Strike, Intimidator and Afterburn!
There will be some surprises in my rankings, that you may or may not agree with... But after the top 4 at Carowinds - Fury 325, Copperhead Strike, Intimidator and Afterburn, the rest of the roller coasters at the park, aren't anything to write home about...
I live 10 minutes away from this awesome park, and being able to ride Fury, basically anytime I want is a true life blessing!
If you've visited Carowinds before, then be sure to let me know how you rank their coaster lineup!
Carowinds is home to 4 B&M's, 2 Macks, 2 Arrow Dynamics and 3 Vekoma's...
Hopefully one day, this park that borders both, North Carolina and South Carolina, will be able to get a Intamin or RMC...

NIghthawk is my favorite coaster in the world. I can't really fully explain the subtleties as to why, but it just gives me a childlike joy I haven't experienced on any other coaster. It is very likely the riding position and forward loops. Larger people tend to find it uncomfortable, but if you're small or light, do give it a shot. Sit in the center of the row for a smoother ride.

My son and I both really enjoy Nighthawk. It is unlike any other coaster at Carowinds. It feels "dysfunctional" and makes you think to yourself "why am I upside down and backwards. What in the world am I doing here?" That is the sensation we look for in a thrill ride. It is a unique experience at this park, and unique to even Busch Gardens Williamsburg which is a far superior park to Carowinds and has multiple thrill rides with unique experiences. But it has nothing like Nighthawk.

I agree about Vortex. I rode it the first year it opened in California and LOVED it! It was my first rollercoaster outside of our local fair which features a classic wood coaster and a Wildcat. I rode it a couple of years ago at Carowinds and oh.my.gosh it was the worst thing ever. Gee, I wonder why there is never a line. I think it needs to be scrapped. I thought Talon and Silver Bullet were better than Afterburn and I love Intimidator and would switch those two, but otherwise agree with your rankings as far as the coasters I've been on. Will be back in August to ride the new Copperhead Strike! We are greatly lacking in rollercoasters out here in WA so I've been getting my fix when taking my kids to college on the east coast. Carowinds needs a dive coaster.

I live an hour away and have been going to Carowinds all my life. I was in middle school when Vortex opened and I remember the ad campaign with commercials all summer long. Being the first stand up coaster in the South it was kind of a big deal and it was an incredible ride when I was thirteen. It has definitely been outclassed and is frankly reached the end of its cycle. I was thrilled when Cedar Fair bought the park because I had heard of Cedar Point and how it was Coaster Mecca and I hoped they would build new rides and I'm glad they did.
@jakesteel8082 3 жыл бұрын
As a fellow enthusiast whose home park is Carowinds I agree with most of the list. Except one major albeit out there change. Vortex is my #5. Honestly your enjoyment will come from how you handle the restraints. My trick is to stand flat footed while getting into the restraints, then during the ride stand on the balls of your feet while keeping it like that for the entirety of the ride. Pair that with the front row and it's honestly an intense and fairly smooth ride. It's still short and not the most interesting layout, but that drop while standing up is something no other ride in the park can offer. I use to hate Vortex with a passion, but now if I see an empty que (usually the case) when walking from Fury to Intimidator I always hop on.

@@chadsmith1703 That's how I ride all the stand-ups, and now I like them all, even Vortex. I think stand-ups trains, ridden correctly, are far better than boring floorless trains. Any track issues won't be helped by putting a type of train on it that the track wasn't designed for.

I visited in August 2018, so I'm missing Copperhead Strike, and I still need that kiddie credit. I kind of liked Nighthawk, but maybe that's just because I was so happy to finally get on, after waiting 45 minutes in a line that should have taken 10. Vortex won't be much better as a floorless. The floorless trains didn't really help Firebird; that thing is so terrible. Hurler rode quite smooth for me; it just didn't have any airtime. I have a feeling that I might like Copperhead Strike more than Fury, as that is more my kind of ride. Gigas aren't as big a deal to me as they are to others. I appreciate more what rides like Copperhead Strike offer.

Best list I've seen online for ranking coasters at Carowinds. The reasons sound like they were pulled from my own head. Ex: Montu gets praised, yet it simply copied Afterburn's layout and added a loop and mid course brake run. I never knew MCBRs were so popular. Maybe move Woodstock Express up and Hurler down...both just behind Ricochet. Personally, I prefer B&M hypers over inverts due to re-rideability. Another wooden coaster is low on my wish list. Unless the future wood coaster is an El Toro or Voyage rather than another weak GCI that will get rough in 5 years, save the money and the headaches. Just RMC Hurler and get trains with more leg room for Woodstock. Better options for less.

Afterburn however, I had to have ridden at least 50-100 times that summer. Favorite coaster I've ever been on by a mile, I want to go to other parks and ride more B&M inverts!

Copperhead Strike- Good hang Time and air time A pretty big drop after the big 4: 5. Nighthawk- This coaster doesn't bother me as much as most. I think middle seats are more comfortable. #6-8 are pretty close in my rankings 6. Hurler 7. Carolina Cyclone 8. Ricochet- Actually decent air time for what it is 9. Flying Cobras 10.

In the first part even, when it slowly rolls over, I saw a phone. It was HALARIOUS. In my opinion the ratings would go like this. 1. Copperhead strike 2. Fury 3. After burn 4. Vortex.

Is it worth it to buy the express pass?
@j.johnson7891 2 жыл бұрын
B&M Giga's must really vary in ride experiences. Millennium Force, for instance, felt like it ran slow for a month straight, now it's hauling again. Perhaps it's something they're doing with updated maintenance that temporarily slows it down?

Fury front row for that drop thrill for me Edit: Now that I have ridden it more, back seat far right for most intense negative G's and feeling floatier on the cleff, and left seat for more intense negative g's on the cleff as well as on all the other twists before it.

I must say, your videos have been increasing in quality a lot more, but If I had to suggest 1, it seems like you are screaming into your mic, so you might want to lower the sound of that and 2, i recommend maybe putting music or some sort of audio in the background. Great video tho!

The issue with Vortex is definitely the headbanging, but it's also the fact that you're on your tiptoes the entire time. Nighthawk is my favorite, though! The line is always so long. I freaking hate Richochet, though. It's so annoying.
