My First Ever Visit to Carowinds! (Coaster Con 45 Day 5) | June 2023
DISCLAIMER: This video was filmed on June 22nd, 2023 (I’m very sorry for the delay in my editing). This was filmed a few days before Fury cracked, and a few months before Intimidator changed its name.
Carowinds is an amusement park that sits on the border between North and South Carolina, and it’s been in my bucket list for years. It has an amazing top lineup of coasters from the intense Afterburn, the airtime-filled Intimidator (now called Thunder Striker), Copperhead Strike with its multiple launches, and the legendary Fury 325 which is considered one of the best steel coasters in the world. I finally got to experience this park during Coaster Con with the American Coaster Enthusiasts, where I got to ride all the coasters and enjoy the special events the park had for us.

Loch Ness Monster: The Legend Lives On Media Day Vlog | May 2024

Loch Ness Monster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg is a classic Arrow looping coaster from 1978. It opened as the tallest and fastest coaster in the world. Its iconic interlocking vertical loops are currently the only ones of its kind. For the 2024 season, the ride went under a major refurbishment, which included replacing large sections of track and adding new theming elements. I was able to atte...

    Honestly as someone who lives in Charlotte and visits a lot a lot of my friends and myself included do not like Copperhead the hangtime is really fun but it gets old after riding it a lot and we really like afterburn and I’d put afterburn as my second favorite but I’ve also seen a lot of people who visit here that are coaster enthusiasts like you that say that afterburn is 4 and Copperhead is really good pretty interesting

    Fury 325 has a new voice that tells you what to do while riding the roller coaster Carowinds put a new voice in 2024. The old voice must have been outdated. Fury 325 opening up in 2015 on March 28th. Carowinds had a soft opening for the ride on March 25th.

    I was there I got lucky and got on maverick a little before it broke down, then went right to vengeance and got 3 rides aswell then went back to the room, my older brother and his wife stayed til it was was over and got 7 rides in which is pretty. This was my first coaster event and it was amazing.

    Glad you enjoyed Iron Gwazi. It's my #1. I had Velocicoaster around 5/6 but just got some more very recent night rides on it during Orlando Informer event (like midnight runs on it) and Velocicoaster might be bumped up to 3/4 range for me. I've been on IG WAY more, but velocicoaster is more recent and the actual ride isn't better than IG. Yeah, they have theming, but that doesn't affect my coaster rankings.

Bad show on the falling Medusa sign 😂 Cool that you bumped into El Toro Ryan! Looked like a nice dude. I'm Mexican American, I can make you some quesadillas one day 😂 but yeah man, what's up with that. Why have them on the menu if you're not going to have them on the menu there at the park? I'm still enjoying Jersey Devil, at least certain sections of it and I'm still not sure if I like it or Wonder Woman more at Six Flags FT. I love Nitro night rides, they're just awesome.
