Twister Timbers tops my list. The intensity of I305 is intense and it used to be fun to see my daughter pass out during the opening year spring time. But I'd never had a coaster get better and better at every element. And that airtime was absolutely insane.

So glad you loved Volcano. Rode it when it opened. You nailed it by pointing out the rapid shift from near-total darkness to blinding light - i had the same thought. It's what sets it apart from stuff like Kingda Ka, etc. True the rest of the ride holds few surprises, but the last slope and sudden yet gentle brake is a nice finish. And all these years later, it still punches above its weight. Great review.

Back before Grizzly got retracked, I would never have bothered to ride It, but now that its smooth and the drop got reprofiled, It is incredible. The drop in the back row is incredible and the airtime was good. I would honestly ride this over Flight of Fear if both had no wait. I am now a huge fan and have ranked this as my 3rd overall in the park.

I was born in the early 90's in Virginia and so I went to Kings Dominion every year in the summer. I knew Paramount didn't own it anymore, but I didn't realize so many of the names were changed. Everyone knew "Racer 75" as "The Rebel Yell". Such a shame that they changed the name.

1 Intimidator 305 - Still my favorite giga to this day. I admire its compact layout where I get a lot of Maverick vibes. If you gray out or black out, no big deal, it’s what makes this ride special. 2 Twisted Timbers - Currently my 2nd favorite RMC. It does not let up, no buzzkills. Absolutely perfect! The triple camelbacks are the best elements. 3 Volcano - I understand why it got removed but it’s still a crime to remove such an icon. By far the greatest defunct coaster of all time. Gotten thousands of rides on this coaster and even on the slower rides, I still walk off with a smile on my face. So sad it’s gone. 4 Rebel Yell - It’s not Racer 75. Damn political correctness! I’ve gotten standing airtime on most parts of the ride. Absolutely insane! My mom’s personal favorite coaster too. 5 Flight of Fear - Despite the horrible seat belts and the bulky lap bars, this ride is badly underrated. Great theming and an all-out intense coaster. I also love the operators that mainly joke with the riders before it takes off. 6 Dominator - Awesome coaster but it is rattly in the second half. Despite that, it’s so much fun. 7 Grizzly - I used to hate it, but it got so much better. It’s intense and has some strong ejector airtime. 8 Backlot Stunt Coaster - Pretty smooth and enjoyable. Fun for families and thrill seekers. 9 Avalanche - Tame but fun 10 Anaconda - Boring and pretty rough 11 Woodstock Express - Not a bad woodie at all 12 Apple Zapple aka Ricochet - It is smoother than Hershey’s Wild Mouse but it’s still not worth the long wait. Just a boring ride overall.

I really dislike Ricochet, too. The only not-boring part is the hairpin turns, and the lack of grading on those turns just ends up throwing me against the side of the car. Beats me up and makes me feel like I'm gonna fall out. 0/10 Speaking of the Rebel Yell, there are a few other coasters I still think of by their old names from when Paramount owned the park. The Outer Limits (aka Flight of Fear), the Italian Job (aka Backlot Stunt Coaster), and the Scooby Doo Roller Coaster (aka Woodstock Express)

I've grown up with I305 a part of my life since the day it opened. You will not be disappointed. Nothing I've ridden has compared to its intensity. And its so *intimidating* that there's almost never a wait. I once rode it three times in a row without leaving my seat! I did get vertigo that night though xD I'd recommend trying to hold your hands up on the turns, because of the G-forces, it's actually a challenge!

also part of grizzlies roughness stems from some areas being somewhat undersupported causing extreme flexing of the structure which can amplify roughness a ton, i only know this based on the high flexing the ride has as well as some knowledge about what excessive structural flexing can do to a ride experience

Gosh I miss the Volcano. It was my favorite roller coaster of all time. I spent so much time riding that back in high school and college. It still doesn't feel real that it's gone. Intimidator is great. It's actually made me pass out. But nothing will ever beat the combination of aesthetic, speed, and twists that was the Volcano.

I worked there in high school in the mid 90s the first year that volcano opened. Hard to believe that is gone and the stand up coaster that was in the middle of the park.

Grizzly is my 3rd favorite ride in the park, and I always ride in the back. It's rough, but it doesn't hurt, and it honestly adds to the fun factor for me. I find coasters like Anaconda and Wildcat at HP to be much more painful, and my ride on Gemini at CP was surprisingly brutal. It would number 4 if I counted Volcano.

I grew up in this park and Grizzly was one of my favorites. I knew it was rough, part of the reason I liked it but me being older and the coaster, I wonder if I would feel the same. Racer 75 used to be called Rebel Yell. I remember at some point they ran the left track backwards and that was an awesome experience. I'm sad to see they don't do that any more, I wonder why. Also the peanuts roller coaster used to be called Scooby doo and it was awesome as a kid. I rode Volcano the year they opened it and it was amazing. That was the last year I visited the park. Also, I rode anaconda when it was new, it was amazing then but I can see how it didn't age well.

I've only ever been on one RMC to this point (Storm Chaser) so I can't wait for Twisted Timbers. And I-305 has me excited in all sorts of ways, I'm wondering if it will bring back the feeling of being genuinely nervous waiting in line.

Grizzly is maybe half as rough (as other non-wheel seats) in front row, it's crazy. For most of 2018 it was perfectly rough in a good way, and then the bounce started. It actually got work for this year but there's an awful spot going into the hill after the first turnaround now and it still pogoes later. 2019 was the year for Rebel Yell, despite losing its name, with the addition of programming to sync racing. Unfortunately I've only seen it racing once this year -- such a blast. Currently South is super smooth while North (lakeside) has spots at the end that are a bit vicious, but liven it up. Also a moving target. My hip has mostly recovered from 2008 but CF has helped it out over time. Anaconda can really hurt you but if you can get through The Spot she's a good old snake. Yes very solid lineup. KD ranks only behind CP in two major top 25 coasters overall polls.

I feel lucky to have i305 and KD three hours east of me and Fury and Carowinds three hours west of me. I alternate my visits between the parks, and Kings Dominion is incoming this upcoming week for me since Carowinds was in June. I was at KD in May during opening weekend, and unfortunately i305 was down for the entire time, so I haven’t been on it since Haunt 2019. Hoping all is well with it this coming week. Like you, I prefer KD a bit over Carowinds. Carowinds is wonderful, but KD’s setting is just a bit prettier to me. Either way, they’re sibling parks to each other and it’s wonderful to have both of them relatively close by. Great video! Keep it up and come back to both parks! (Also: Twisted Timbers back and right seat is the perfection seat to me!)

After my visit: I definitely agree on Grizzly, it was just janky. Racer 75 gave me hardly any airtime, I'm not a fan. I actually somewhat enjoyed Anaconda, the layout wasn't the best but it was enjoyable. Backlot Stunt Coaster was better than expected, with awesome forces that caused me to gray out. Flight of Fear had a really strong first section, but slowed down too much after the midcourse. Not much to say about Dominator. I passed out completely on I305, so I only put it as second in the park. It was a shame, because it looked like the best ride in the park but I was only fully conscious for the last 10 seconds. Twisted timbers was phenomenal, the airtime was incredible. Avalanche and Apple Zapple were closed. All in all, I agree with everything except Racer 75 being so high.

I quite enjoy your videos but Back Lot was crap! Anaconda has a few good elements with the tunnel in the lake you mentioned being a highlight so swap those then let Woodstock pass both 😂. Raver ran terribly for me but I’ll try it again. PS: I have kids and enjoyed The Great Pumpkin more without parental bias of riding it with my kids more than Racer. It gave us air but didn’t give anyone a headache!

When I went on intimidator today I nearly blacked out a little after the huge drop, same thing with my dad, good ride no line, and went on it twice. 10/10

Twisted Timber is the best. The Hulk from Universal used to be my #1 now is this one. The number one in this video it is certainly amazing but twisted timber is the best.

As an enthusiast who lives in Richmond, I still don't have Great Pumpkin Coaster (Taxi Jam). I'm hoping to take my 5-year old nephew this year and finally get the credit. Once I do, I'll finally 100% credit the park (including King Kobra and Galaxi).
