Congratulations to Knoebels for Phoenix winning the 2018 Golden Ticket Award for Best Wooden Coaster! That officially validates what many of us have felt for a long time - the best wooden coaster on Earth.

The Phoenix at Knoebels was the very first rollercoaster I was ever on, aw the nostalgia

I love that I have the ability to go to Knoeble's often. It's an amazing park and the Twister is my favorite!!!

Many of their rides have historic significance: Phoenix: Originally the Rocket at Playland Park in San Antonio Texas; first wooden coaster to be relocated Twister: Replica of Mister Twister at Elitch Gardens in Denver Colorado Black Diamond: Track from the Golden Nugget in Wildwood New Jersey; listed as same ride Flying Turns: Replica of several Flying Turns of the 20's and 30's

It’s so weird seeing a place I grew up going to being reviewed one youtube

So I was always scared of bigger rollercoasters, and always stuck to my safe favorites , the 2 wooden coasters here at Knoebels. But when they opened Impulse my boyfriend somehow convinced me to get on it (I actually waited in line once then chickened out lol) but once I got on it oh boy. I never had so much fun in my life. Definitely a great introductory steel coaster for those wanting to start riding some of the bigger and scarier coasters out there. It had me hooked!!

I’m glad I live in PA so I can go to knoebles the Phoenix is my favorite ride because my great great grandfather actually built it he had all the blue prints for it and he was pretty much the boss of building it! But he passed away :(. And not that long ago I was at Knoebles for a field trip for school it was AWSOME! And the black diamond is better when the lights are off.

Impulse it feels like your falling off of it but It’s an AMAZING RIDE! I highly recommend it (this sounds like an app review 😂)

I LOVE Knoebels. We go every summer...

Phoenix is pretty popular at Knoebels tbh,,, you feel like you’re gunna fly out of your seat but really it’s a-ok and fun (lost my glasses on it as a kid and threw up every time I rode it lol, memories XD)

Im glad i live in PA, the phoenix is the best!

Black Diamond seems very interesting! At times it seems like they actually put in a chain lift to slow down the train instead of raise it where it would usually move quickly due to inertia and momentum. Very interestingly engineered ride, I'd love to give it a go.

Since i first began forming memories in the 80s Knobels has and will always be my happy place. One reason is the older i get its fun to see things change but Knobels barely has changed. Some rides have been removed and new ones added but 90% of what my 80s kid brain remembers is still there.

The Phoenix is my fav ride there. It’s super fun when it makes you fly out of ur seat😂

I love the Phoenix, one of my favorite wooden coasters. Amusement parks make me all giddy and make me feel like a kid again going on a field trip lol

Phoenix looks like a blast with all that air time. I like the looks of twister as well. Some of those drops look amazing. Impulse looks to be fun as well. Have to go sometime.

Knoebles is my favorite park ever!! I go every summer. I have nicknamed the Twister the neckbreaker lmao

Thank you for posting this. I live in central pa and we go often. Love the free parking, great food and the rides. The Phoenix is always running fast.

Right where Kosmo's Kurves is used to be a older coaster called High Speed Thrill Coaster that closed back in 2008. It was my favorite coaster growing up, and the only one I dared to go on. Up until I was 18 I was too petrified to go on Twister or the other ones, which today I do adore. Kurves never filled the hole in my heart that High Speed left behind, I never found it to carry that same special touch. And yes I've been on Kurves many times to confirm this. Will always love and remember High Speed Thrill.

I love how we all live within a state of each other

anybody who rode this will understand "we do be flying out of our seats tho"

Knoebels is my favorite park!

Went to knoebels a few years ago Phoenix was my favorite ride. Also my friends grandad waited years for them to open flying turns, but unfortunately he passed away the year they opened it.

Who else is here in 2020 and is sad cuz of corona to not visit knobles this year? Also who else remembers when impulse was being built?

Wow, I've never seen anything like that Flying Turns one.

I love the impulse so freaking much. It’s my second favorite ride in the park, aside from the stratos fear

I'm surprised you didn't put mid-roll ads in the video! If it were anyone else there'd be an ad every other minute! 🤣

The impulse is my favorite roller coaster

I LOVE THIS PARK I GO EVERY YEAR!!!❤️

I love Knoebels!! Been going for 60 years😁

My best memories of the park is running to Twister with my dad, and then riding it 3-5x in a row together.

Do this for more parks! These videos are awesome!

I LOVE this place!! I have been coming here forever! I live so close too!

10:55 I always loved the nod to Centralia - a little bit of the history of the area mixed in including the original area code!

I’m going to knobles tomorrow😂😂like if you love knobles

I love the black diamond with lights on

Runtime Phoenix: 1 min 40 sec Impulse: 1 min Flying Turns: 1 min 30 sec Twister: 2 min 10 sec Black Diamond: 4 min 20 sec Kozmo’s Kurves: 3 min

love WOOD COASTER! Phoenix is so amazing ride lots airtime :D

when quarantine is over i'm immediately coming back

Impulse is my personal favorite ride. I’m only 12 and I ride it more than my 16 year old sister. I go to knoebles every Memorial Day weekend and 2-6 times in the summer.

I've loved knoebels for a long time seeing my family there every other summer, my favorite ride being the Phoenix.

Knoebels has always been my favorite place since a baby ❤️❤️

Got a recent zen ride in the front row of Phoenix in the cold rain, wow! Just wow! Needless to say EASILY a top 5 coaster experience for me, and I've had some very memorable ones! This place is a true treasure, I can't wait to come back with my wife and son later this summer!

And for the record, the Black Diamond is super freaky in the dark

Impulse is my fave ride there, idk why it just is. To me it’s the best roller coaster there (if you don’t like goin upside down I recommend Kozmo’s Kurves)

I will miss Knoebels. I will never be able to go there again. I rode on both The Phoenix and The Twister. I will never be able to ride The Flying Turns and Impulse. I was able to go there because of my soon to be ex-wife and her family. I love Knoebels and I loved camping at the campgrounds there. Waking up every morning to fresh crisp mountain air was awesome. It made eating breakfast much more better. The food was awesome.

So much wood...

Flying Turns looks so fun. I haven't seen a bobsled coaster since The Screamin' Delta Demon at Opryland.

I go to Knoebles every year I go on all the roller coasters I love them so so much

I’m going this week and I can’t wait! This looks rlly fun!

I love the black diamond and I love it when lights off better

I have childhood memories of this place that I can say I cherish will never forget. It was the first amusement park I had been to after being taken away from my parents I was living with the aunt and uncle at the time.

ah, the phoenix. thanks to this coaster, i didn't ride another one for about ten years. this was my first coaster, and i had JUST reached the height requirement but weighed probably twenty pounds too little. my butt didn't touch the seat once after that first hill. i cried the whole time. last week, i finally got over my fear of coasters at hersheypark after i rode the lightning racer. i can finally admit to myself that the phoenix looks fun as hell.

I love Black Diamond!

PA’s hidden gem!

WARNING for small kids:do not put your hands up over the water on cosmos curve because you will probably fall out, I once did that and i almost fell😂😂

Phoenix is the best, obviously, but Impulse and Rolling Thunder are good too. I’m sad to say that I didn’t really enjoy Twister, it was really rough and gave me a headache for like an hour.

Knoebels looks like a ton of fun.

As a resident of central PA I can say... of all of these, I’ve only been on a few. The one I hate the most is the Phoenix as it gave me serious whiplash when I went on it. The Twister is damn amazing, one of my favorite coasters.

This place looks like amazing fun :)

Twister is my favorite. I’m saying this because I went on it

I am from Canada and travelling out to Virginia, and stopping here to have some fun until we get back to driving again. I am so excited to go here!!!

Black diamond is my favorite ride ever at Knoebels Who else loves it?

Flying turns looks so harsh but I can assure you its the smoothest there. Twister and cosmos curves are extreme headaches

I love knoebels every year we go for my birthday but we’re going early, we’re going tomorrow but only my brother his fiancé his dog and me are this year. The impulse is my favorite ride!

I remember one time when i was like 6 or something i went on the Phoenix with my dad and i thought it was the craziest ride ever (mostly cuz i dont really ride coasters) because it made me lift up off my seat. I also remember when i was older i went on the twister one and almost lost my glasses. Random stories but good memories

How did you get permission to record your ride and how did you manage to record it? Was it like handheld or on a mount? Edit: Mainly on the big rides like impulse, Phoenix, and twister.

I would go on flying turns just because I never been on a roller coaster like that before.

I love knobels so much!

I swear though we haven't been on this Impulse ride at all yet because the line is so long every time we go hehe ;) I know it's practically new but its a neat looking ride. Love Knoebels we go a lot!

Overcast day but still you made some beautiful footage!

I loved those rides I went to knoebles when the rides where opened

“Purple coaster” is what my family calls Kozmo’s Kurves😂

Go to magic mountain I’m 8 and I was 6 when I rode lex Luther revelation and twisted colsses it’s fun

Impulse was probably the smoothest coaster I ever rode on, like it was so nice.

The Phoenix has a really cool layout for so little a space ... nice

Kosmo's Kurves reminds of some of the backyard coasters I've seen here on KZfaq. Would love to ride the Phoenix one day.

The camera quality is better then my eye sight

This is for the people who have never been on these before. If your just on a nostalgia trip ignore this comment The Phoenix is amazing, but I reccomend sitting in the back. It makes the drops seem alot bigger and it's just all out more fun For the impulse, DO NOT ride for the first time at night. That's what I did and I was screaming so bad because all I saw was black. It will also feel like your falling out but trust me, your not. Flying turns: this is a fun ride, but be prepared to be weighed. Also, it feels like the car of gonna flip upside down but I wont, so dont be scared. Twister: DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT sit in the back. This is a very rough ride and you will have a headache. I reccomend bringing some aspirin just in case. It's an amazing ride. And, if it's the same as before, there will be a man taking tickets, and hes deaf. He is the nicest and most heartwarming man I have ever met so just remember too give him a smile because hes honestly so amazing. Black diamond: this ride scared the living daylight out of me. Wouldnt reccomend if you are young or have a young child. Also wouldnt reccomend is you have ptsd including yelling and aggressive behavior. The animatronics shout alot and seem very angry, so if that bothers you, I wouldnt reccomend. Also, irl the lights are off for this ride so its ALOT scarier. Kozmos curves: this is a good ride if you have a little kid, and even in general. Igs not that exciting, but can still give you a little adrenaline. Idk if you can be too tall, but this ride is geared torwards little kids mainly. Also the line is usually SUPER long

I love kenobles I go with my freinds every year

THE PHOENIX NEVER GETS OLD YESSS

Love them all. Don’t ride in the last cart of the Phoenix though....

on pheonix, i got a ride in the pouring rain and pitch black outside. one of the best rides i ever got

Is it sad I've been on all of these and I love them so much

Alvey you make video games AND ride rollercoasters. Lucky.

I love these videos I give knobles 10 stars

I’m going to knobles today can’t wait!

Wow....why'd ya'll get to stay on that last one for so long? And will you upload a Black Diamond w/ the lights off sometime? I'd love to see it!

Awesome!

The first time I went on Phoenix, I literally thought I was going to fly out. :’)

Impulse my fav

Oh I definitely recommend the Cosmatron I told the people who were working at it and I told the to play Old Town Road and they did and everyone riding the cosmatron were singing to it

Knoebels is 5 minutes from my house. Really convenient, it's a great park.

I love this place

I'm so happy I live close to knobles

Ooh!! Ooh!! Ooh!! Now do Hershey Park!😄👍🍫

I go here every year and I love it

i love this video

My favorite is the flying turns

I've been there it's so much fun it's in Pennsylvania
