I can’t express how much joy I get from the hybrid conversions. They aren’t just preserving history, they are making history better.

Walibi is my home park and i can say that Untamed runs very consistently. Even on ‘bad’ days it’s still very fast and you’ll be out of breath by the end. It truly deserves its placement.

Totally agree with the order of your top 3. I keep hearing people say that Lighting Rod is no longer elite and I can't wrap my head around that. It's my overall number one favorite coaster. I always hit the brakes with a huge smile and it takes a moment for me to regain my composure. Steel Vengeance is phenomenal and it deserves all of the praise it gets. Iron Gwazi is my overall number 5 coaster and it is such a fast paced and chaotic ride. I personally like how the elements flow on Steel Vengeance and Lightning Rod better but Iron Gwazi is still incredible.

FINALLY A LIGHTNING ROD ENJOYER

My favorite RMC coaster is Lightning Rod. The setting, speed, and quality of elements is incredible.

Pls next vekoma is my favourite manifacturer

I personally have joker as my top 5 favorite rmc. It has an amazing first drop and the layout is unique

this is a big one! excited to watch!

My favorite is Iron Rattler, based not only on the quality of the ride, but also because of my personal experiences and that it's had a bigger impact on me than any other coaster. I think the best RMC that is a combination of top quality elements & variety is Steel Vengeance. I think the RMC with the most aggressive maneuvers & strongest airtime (that I've ridden) is Twisted Timbers, and those are things that I really love, which is why I rank it so high. Those are my overall top 3.

I loved that you rank Iron Rattler so highly! SFFT is my home park and IR always stays high on my list no matter how many other RMCs I get on. I feel like it gets over looked by most enthusiasts.

Nice list! Seeing Goliath last made me a little sad but I mean that just shows how good RMCs are- even the ‘worst’ one is still very solid

What a great list, with some surprises in there!

Cannot wait to hear the b&m and intamin lists!

Bro i waited for excactly this Video insane man very nice content Would love to See intamin 😊

Six Flags Great America is my home park and seeing goliath at 20 make me excited to try other rmc coasters.

Great vid, now I'm anxious to try your number 1

I have only been on Steel Vengeance and Iron Gwazi so far, both number 1 for me because they are different, Gwazi has you going in all different directions non stop, and the death spiral is probably one of the most amazing elements ever, especially over 60 mph hitting it. I love SV too. I hope to get over to Hershey for theirs, I live pretty close.

Went to ride Aero Force One. It really doesn’t look like much looking at it from the ground but man, What a ride!! I have been on some of these in the list & Lighting Rod is pretty good but I like Iron Gwazi a tad more. Great list & I look forward to riding them all..

Awesome ranking video! I find RMC my favorite coaster manufacturer. (Tied with Intamin) Even though Steel Vengeance is the only coaster from them that I've been on so far...

these rmc look wild I can't wait to visit the us one day and get on one of those badboys. Outlaws Run and Iron Gwazi look k1ll3r

My top 5 RMCs 5 Jersey Devil Coaster. I am a sucker for this one, and I enjoy what it has to offer. It also has a superb night ride. 4 Twisted Timbers. This one is a solid mix of elements and forces. I also enjoy the inverting drop. 3 Iron Gwazi. I originally was disappointed by this one, but as I rode, I enjoyed it more. The death roll is the highlight for me. 2 Steel Vengeance. This is the Energizer Bunny of RMCs. It feels like it goes on forever. 1 Wildcat's Revenge. I love this one for the sheer intensity and how it makes the most of what it has. I hit the final brakes and found myself gagging once.

when you do ride hakugei make sure to ride in the front row

Great video as always. I definitely haven't done so many RMCs as you but can't understand Twisted Colossus being so high. The most underwhelming I've done so far... Of the ones I've done I'd go: Untamed; Zadra; Stormchaser; Wonder Woman Flight of Courage & Twisted Colossus way back. Could have just been a bad ride on the day but can't see how it'd ever be above Zadra. Untamed runs full crazy when it's hot 🔥 - absolutely insane stuff. Can't wait to do more.

Steel vengeance is my number one coaster and I’m not sure when that’s going to change I rode in the back while it was warmed up without trims and honestly i have never felt my eyes hurt from a rollercoaster. Iron gwazi the first time I rode it was so underwhelming it took like 4 rides to crack top ten and I also like how the ride ops don’t staple u like they do on steel vengeance

Great list. I haven’t been on lightning rod yet, but hope to change that soon. I think Steel Vengeance is king. While I have not ridden all on this list, it just has it all minus a launch. It was great chatting with you at BGW a couple weeks back. If you ever get to carowinds, hope to run into you again!

I’ve only done steel vengeance and iron gwazi can’t wait to ride one of the small ones

Great list! Funny how we both have the exact same top 3. I haven't done Untamed yet, but Outlaw Run is #4 for me. I am surprised Zadra isn't in the top 5, as well as Storm Chaser not being in the top 10. Storm Chaser has some downright violent ejector air; the only one with more aggresive ejector that I've experienced is Iron Gwazi. I actually prefer SC over Iron Rattler for this reason.

I have done four of these coasters, Twisted Colossus, Zadra, Untamed and Steel Vengeance. They're ranked for in that order. With SteVe being no. 1

Here it is, the best manufacturer! Or at least the best coasters. I have only been on 3 and Iron Gwazi being one of them is by far the best roller coaster iv ever ridden and it feels nothing like the other RMCs. RMCs are the insanely smooth but ejector filled airtime rides with weird elements.

My favorite RMC is Iron Gwazi at Busch Gardens Tampa followed by Wicked Cyclone at Six Flags New England, Twisted Cyclone at Six Flags Over Georgia, Goliath at Six Flags Great America and New Texas Giant at Six Flags Over Texas. I'll be heading to Kentucky Kingdom and Dollywood this summer for the first time so I can't wait to try Storm Chaser and Lightning Rod while there.

Iron Gwazi is in a rare category of coasters that flat out kick your butt.

You should’ve ride Storm Chaser in 2022, it was flying last year

I’ve been on 1 RMc it is twisted colossus. Very fun

Really surprised zadra is only at #7. Definitely expected it to be higher up on the list

I'm surprised you put Zadra sow low and Lightning rod so high. The comments are gonna go insane. Great vid btw!

My favorite RMC is Iron Rattler and I think The Golden Lasso is the best raptor coaster. Steel Vengeance and Goliath are almost too intense for me, but really like Lightning Rod and Twisted Colossus. It sucks getting old and not being able to ride coasters now with more than 3 inversions. I enjoy the conversions but still love the Woodies. I know up-keep is more on the Woodies, but when they re-tracked GhostRider it brought it back to almost like new.

I rode wildfire multiple times during both morning and late afternoon, the difference was pretty big so i belive you'd have it higher if you rode it in the evening and with a full train

I've only ridden IG, TwiT and LRod. They're all so different I can't really compare the 3

Jersey Devil Coaster feels so much more insane in the front then in the back I got more powerful airtime actually in the front

Haven't been to the states yet so Zadra is my favorite of the 3 i've done. Hoping to do all of you're top 10 this and the next year so there might be some changes in the near future.

You should make a third video of top roller coasters from Rocky Mountain Construction.

please do MACK RIDES. They're my favourite manufacturers

I’m so happy to see Twisted Colossus so high. I don’t hear it getting very much praise nowadays, and I think it deserves way more love than it gets

In this video there was: Number 3: Iron Gwazi at Busch Gardens Tampa. But there was no ArieForce One at Fun Spot Atlanta.

I’ve only been on 3 RMCs, Iron Gwazi, Lightning Rod, and Storm Chaser. I won’t say Lightning Rod disappointed me, but it basically just met expectations. I still think Iron Gwazi is the better ride cause it is more powerful throughout the whole duration. Hoping to get on Arieforce One and Twisted Cyclone in the coming months though. I wouldn’t be surprised if Arieforce One becomes my 2nd favorite, it looks absolutely amazing.

I would definitely place Zadra over SteVe, Tristed Colossus, and Lightening Rod. It's my favorite so far. I'll get to ride Iron Gwazi later this year, so my ranking might change.

Soft spot for the 2 in Texas! Been on both when they started as all wood, Rattler @ the top of quarry WAY better than boring "humped helix" Love your editing of a great coaster manufacturer! They are truly WIZARDS of their craft. Herschend parks "Kick Butt & take names" Don't they?

My top 3 (woulda been 5 if I didn’t miss out on Wildcat’s Revenge and Iron Rattler 💔) 3. Twisted Timbers, I hate to say it cuz it’s one of three RMCs I’ve been on and I love RMC, but this one disappointed me. It somehow felt too smooth, like I wasn’t experiencing the full potential of each element, I still liked this ride but it wasn’t even better than Dominator for me. Also I was fresh off the disappointment of not being able to ride Wildcat’s revenge, so I was hoping this would make up for it and it let me down. (Rode in July 2023) 2. Storm Chaser, a massive step up from number 3, it’s my number 3 roller coaster overall and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about it, one of my few roller coasters I’d rate a 10/10, and I’m pretty strict with coaster ratings! That first airtime hill is also my favorite moment on the ride, second being the first drop which was somehow much better than the one on Twisted Timbers, my favorite row was the very back and I got 5 rides on it, Storm Chaser was only my second RMC and it set a great precedent for what the others are gonna be like. (Rode in August 2022) 1. Lightning Rod, my very first RMC. After missing out on Iron Rattler because it was closed, going to Nagashima Spa Land and riding what I consider to be the worst roller coaster ever built in White Cyclone just three years before Hakugei would open, and going to Cedar Point for the first and only time just one year before Steel Vengeance opened, I finally got to experience my first RMC; and it happened to be the one that’s notorious for being unreliable! This roller coaster changed my life, it changed my perspective on how amazing a roller coaster could possibly be, I only got one ride on it but that was enough for me to say it was the greatest moment of my entire life, and I thought for a long time that it would never be dethroned as my top 1 roller coaster. It wasn’t until my recent visit to Kings Dominion where I rode Intimidator 305, that this ride would be dethroned for the top spot, and it took nearly 4 years for it to happen. (Rode in October 2019)

My favorite rmc was Iron Gwazi but now it's Aireforce One

Steel Vengeance #1 - We got lucky to go on a day when the lines for it was just 15 minutes, we were going to marathon it, but after the 2nd go around, we decided not to. Our thighs couldn't handle that thing back to back to back

Lightning Rod is the "Steel Vengeance" of Canobie Coaster.

I'm not as high on Outlaw Run as you, I have it near the bottom of the 12 I've ridden. Lightning Rod is not only my number 1 RMC, it's my number 1 overall. And Iron Gwazi is my number 2 overall. I have Iron Rattler number 4 RMC behind Steel Vengeance. I haven't ridden anything overseas or the California coasters.

I have twisted Colossus as my favorite RMC, and the only reason why I say that is because the only other RMC I have ridden is New Texas Giant. I don't really care that I didn't get a duel, I'm just extremely fortunate to ride it. And I don't care about the lift hill lull either. It was a fantastic ride, and I'd do ANYTHING to get back there. (P.S. I went in December of 2021, so Wonder Woman wasn't built yet.)

I've never been in Twisted Colosus but always hear the lift hill in middle messes up pace. How about making it have launched lifts? How cool would that be?

Do you still have lightning rod as #1 after the chain lift conversion?

Because I’ve only ridden 3 RMC's, I sometimes forget Joker even exists lol

I've ridden 17 of the 23. I'm missing the 5 international coasters and Jersey Devil. If everything goes correctly, I will only be missing Untamed, Hakugei, and Medusa at the end of 2023. We would get along pretty well with how we rank the RMC's. Here are my rankings of the 17 I've ridden, and the top 3 are my overall top 3: 1. Steel Vengeance 2. Iron Gwazi 3. Lightning Rod 4. Twisted Timbers 5. Outlaw Run 6. Iron Rattler 7. Storm Chaser 8. Twisted Colossus 9. RailBlazer 10. Wonder Woman (SFFT) 11. Twisted cyclone 12. Wicked Cyclone 13. Stunt Pilot 14. Goliath 15. Wonder Women (SFMM) 16. Joker 17. New Texas Giant- only RMC not in my overall Top 50

I like to imagine an fully inclosed rmc in complete darkness, all while with onboard audio playing copyrighted rock music

I could be wrong, but I feel like Lightning Rod could very possibly end up with a lift hill in the future. It seems like the wooden structure/track and the launch are not working well together. If I'm not mistaken, they didn't replace the track on the launch with ibox, correct?

Have you ridden LR after the retracking? If so, what did you think?

Where would you put Arieforce one on this list?

I got a great vid idea. You should make a video where you make a park with each coaster being your favorite coaster from each manufacturer. So 1 RMC, 1 B&M,etc.

Although I have never experienced Zadra, I'm shocked it's that low. I know quite a few people who have been on both IGwazi and Zadra and every person picks Zadra. That's what makes it fun though because most of those had both above Lightning Rod :). Love these TOP videos.

Where’d you rank AF1?

I'm riding Iron Gwazi as my first RMC this April........what a way to start right?

I've only ridden 5 RMCs and I'd rank them like this: 1. Iron Rattler 2. Twisted Cyclone 3. Wonder Woman Golden Lasso Coaster 4. Twisted Colossus 5. Twisted Timbers Colossus and Timbers I only had the chance to ride once each so I feel like I didn't get a good feel for them.

Rocky Mountain Construction hybrid conversions and topper tracks Do you know coaster models in the world with shin guards from Premier Rides, Maurer, Gerstlauer, Vekoma or Zamperla?

I've only ridden Twisted Colossus and Twisted Timbers, and I prefer Twisted Timbers, as it feels more fast paced and aggressive.

My #1 RMC is Steel Vengeance! It one of, if not, the best rollercoasters of all time. I definitely think Steel Vengeance is better than Lightning Rod. I haven't tried Lightning Rod but I'm confident that Steel Vengeance is way better because of the speed, intensity, and record amount of airtime it contains.

Can you pls do top 10 cedar fair themed areas

Today’s version of Lightning Rod imo is nowhere near Zadra, Iron Gwazi, Steel Vengeance, or even Twisted Timbers

where would arieforce one be on this list?

Isn't untamed a mini steel vengance...at least that's what I've heard

SV is my #1 coaster and IG is my #3.

I actually wasn't too impressed with storm Chaser. It ran very slow when I went and I got no airtime in the rides 2nd half. I still love it. But I consider it a lower tiered rmc

Clicked on this video expecting Zadra to be at least in the top 3, then I was shocked. Was it running slow when you visited?

The dog fart coaster would beat them all…

Because what do you think about Iron Gwazi at Busch Gardens Tampa? Do you think it's not intense, it's weak, it's graceful, or it's intense?

You should also make: Top roller coasters from Mack Rides Top roller coasters from Gerstlauer Top roller coasters from Gravity Group (updated)

I love steel vengeance don't get me wrong, but it cannot make my top 5 coasters at cedar point because it is so painful to ride. The extreme forces all being exerted on just my thighs causes so much pain to me. I know a decent amount of other people have this issue

I don’t think that the second half of Jersey Devil coaster is bad at all Further I don’t think any of the hills have floater airtime rather they have good ejector airtime throughout each of the bunny hills That may be because I rode it around 3 days ago and it was absolutely hauling through its layout

I said "third" because there was your older video of top Rocky Mountain Construction (RMC) roller coasters, made in 2020, and this one, made in early 2023.

You want to get a rare credit. Im going to make a cart that i can take to williams grove so i can ride the abandond cyclone. Ill have to remove some trees in the track first but i think the traci will hold somebody my size. If i ride in a cart does it count as a credit?

Would you like to ride Iron Gwazi again? What do you think?

This may be a hot take but I think NTG is better then Rattler. Idk if I got an bad one but my one and only ride, back room on it was terrible. I feel like the airtime wasn’t as good and it was a little more rough.

ngl out of all coaster manufacturers RMC is my favorite EDIT: whats the strongest airtime you have experienced ever?

can you do cci or gci next?

I have only been on european RMCs so far and in my mind Zadra is clearly the best. Wildfire is aslo excellent, but i can not see Untaimed holding a candle to Zadra. But hey, opinions.

im sad and impressed if my only rmc is goliath at great america and its the worst like how that thing was crazy how do they get better

I have ridden… Joker Twisted Colossus Wonder Woman: Golden Lasso Iron Rattler New Texas Giant Steel Vengeance - My #1

Steve!

Couldn’t find you on Twitter, but I shared it to my account with you #CanobieCoaster on the post.

Why does everyone hate Goliath? It’s the best coaster that I’ve ever ridden.

TC and Goliath had no business being that short and I think it would be amazing if six flags paid to add an extra lap

I hate lightning rod! It has no launch anymore. I loved it when it had a launch. Now it’s just a boring steel that everyone calls a wooden that has no inversions. I mean, at least Goliath has inversions, and is the fastest and steepest wooden coaster since they made lightning rod steel. I just don’t know why everyone says that Goliath sucks.

is it just me or did i miss zadra

it

My brother says Goliath is the best RMC 💀

First

Plssssssss Intamin:)
