I’ve been to this park twice in my life, and it is my local Six Flags. I went when I was eight in 2015 and recall spending most of the day in the kids section though I did ride the Roar with my parents in it’s final season, just 14 days before it closed, which was rad, and then the hammerhead shark with some strangers because my parents were too afraid😅. The next time I went was one of the best days of my life, it was the summer after sixth grade and my ffriend’s family had won four tickets to discovery Kingdom on the radio station so they invited me. As it turns out my friend absolutely hated roller coasters so at the park her mom and I rode every single coaster that was open including some multiple times, like Medusa, while her and her dad went and explored the zoo section. We stayed until they practically kicked us out of the park and rode the Joker about three times in the dark which was such a cool experience. This was in 2018 and I believe wonder woman in the lasso of truth had just opened and I insisted on going on that four or five times as well.
I agree with your top three, but on my visit I didn’t get to ride many rides because so many were closed. The animal shows and exhibits really saved this park for me.
I have been to this park a good number of times over the past 5 years, and I mostly agree with this list. I've never been on Pandemonium, and don't think it was even there during the times I went. I do remember once going on a coaster called Zonga about 18 years ago, and that was one of the portable multi-looping coasters.
@@CanobieCoaster It wasn't all that great. You'd be slapping your head against the sides the whole ride. Basically induced headaches any time I rode it and the line was always like 2hrs.
joker is way too hated on its such a great ride if you ride near the back and I love that last bunny hill where you get pulled over. thanks for the list
I went here around 20 years ago and just got to go back the other day and loved it. Medusa was the first looping coaster i ever rode, so i was super happy to ride that again. Brought my cousins, (18 and 12) and they thought medusa was the best ride in the park. So, maybe for folks who arent as used to coasters and thrill rides, that is the best one, i thought that was interesting. I rode joker in front and still loved it, #1 in the park. I know it doesn't have the same pop to it if u ride in front, but that first drop was worth doing front first for me. I am also pretty sensitive to too much whipping, so I tend to favor front or even middle if the ride is rougher. I really liked wonder woman tho, and I think I enjoyed it more than superman or Medusa. I think what places wonderwoman so high for me is the intensity and length of ride. It is so high, and so fast (75 mph) it's hard not to just laugh and smile or SCREAM. Great ride. I've done other versions of this as well (SFNE & SFA) and I think this is the best version. Also, superman was too quick of a ride for me. I thought it was an awesome ride, completely true, and it's a tough call for me which is better. But I think I'd usually rather ride wonderwoman if I only had time for 1 more ride. And obv joker over ww.
@@CanobieCoaster yea! The last 2 times I went almost all the rides were open and it was pretty packed! (I did go in August tho) but yea the operations have gotten WAY better
@@CanobieCoaster and the second time I went in August literally all the rides were open except flash but the first time I went their all the rides were open!! Including Flash
Joker is the only ride where operations panics and does everything in their power to try to get it back up when it goes down. Everybody knows it's the best. Everything else they just don't care about going down lol.
Sadly to let you know about this hammerhead shark left the park last month.... That was my second favorite flat ride right behind Tasmanian devil and right in front of Daredevil. .... Rest in peace hammerhead shark🔨🦈 1998-2020
You know this might be weird, but I think Sidewinder is one of the best rides in the park. I got to ride it this past Sunday at the ride night and boy was that fun. I think what made my ride so good though was doing it with my co-workers and getting that things to spin faster than I ever expected. But I also don't think Kong is as bad as people say. Granted I am very biased towards it as I am a ride op at the ride.
i grew up going to this park with one of my best friends, and still go there after about 10 years of going to the park. it is truly a great amusement park and i recommend visiting if you havent been there before :)
I went to this park about a year ago, and it was my first time going to a rollercoaster park. The first ride that I rode was the Wonder Woman, and even though everybody seems to love it, I absolutely hated it. If you dont like going fast or feeling like you have to faint the whole time, dont do this ride. On a different note, I LOVED batman and the joker was my favorite. Sadly when I went the medusa ride was closed, but I'm going back to the park in a couple weeks so lets hope its open!
You should have included every ride there including kiddie rides, the animal exhibit rides, rides you have not ridden, and maybe even the plane and car ride to get to Discovery Kingdom, and then whatever that adds up to, make HQCC an honorable mention and say it would be in last place, no matter how long it would be.
I like Vekoma SLCs, but Kong is easily the roughest one I've ridden. I couldn't believe how long the line was. Flash pass got me on it quick, but because of its popularity, we could only use it on Kong one time. No problem. I didn't want to ride it again. Since I had only one day and it was a Fright Fest Saturday, platinum flash pass was a smart choice. I think I'm understanding now why I don't care much for the S&S 4Ds, based on what you said. I rarely get a 3rd flip, and I sometimes get 0. The one at SFOT has given me 1 flip total in 5 rides. The one here was one of the better ones for me. 9. Kong (I guess I only got on 9 rides. I prioritized the open coasters and checking out animal shows & exhibits.) 8. Cobra 7. Batman the Ride 6. Boomerang 5. Wonder Woman 4. Medusa (it was broken for about 5 hours, but they finally got it running toward the end of the day. I'm not big on floorless coasters, but this was a good one.) 3. Flash (I love how unique it is, and I'm a sucker for the sound of LIM launches. It was up the whole day!) 2. Superman (I realized how great these rides can be, after finally riding one without discomfort collars) 1. Joker
@@CanobieCoaster With how horrible the paint job is and why the park won't invest in the new Vekoma trains, it just makes for the worst SLC ever, especially with the faded paint chipping away.
Thrilla Gorilla. Yep! can't help but smile on this one. AstroWorld gave them Zonga. Let's face it. It was to hot in Houston & Vallejo to run this Schwarzkopf, but, If you were lucky enough to ride it....OyyyyveYYY! Look oou for loop #4!!!! This park is like my 3rd or 4th fav in terms of mixing rides with wildlife. Busch Gardens Tampa @ #1.
Everyone says this is one of the weaker Six Flags parks but it honestly looks like great fun. Joker gets a lot of hate but it looks like such an underrated RMC, Medusa is easily one of the best B&M Floorless coasters. And they have a impulse, a skyrocket 2 with lap bar, and a couple others that aren't as good but still, that collection is really good.
Well he's 5'9" so I guess about that tall.. Sorry I don't know his name so I'll keep saying he. He forgets that he's also very thin, so the restraint can basically go completely flat on his chest, so it's not just about height. When I was overweight I would bang my head and I am 6ft4! Now I am slim and I Can get it flat and clear my head. So it's a combination of things.
only park with a freespin, skyrocket 2, boomerang, intamin impulse, wild mouse, and an SLC to top it all off. way too many cloned rides, most of which kinda suck. edit: yes i know the flash isn't actually a clone.
I thought Batman wasn’t intense like a starting coaster then go to Medusa it was not it was crazy and when I went upside down I was floating so fun one of my favorites rides in the park and dropping upside down is crazy
Non of the rides here make me gray out which means these roller coasters are the least intense in the whole six flags chain. Do any of these rides make you gray out?
Wife & I were living in the Tenderloin in SF, and this was our first home park together. Got seasons passes and only went once. Place is crazy ghetto, bro. Two thumbs down!! CAN-O-BEAST!! My big homie from VALLEJO, CA, SON
See: Boomerang: Coast to Coaster at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. It has over-the-shoulder restraints, but what do you think about the ride in terms of smoothness?

I lol'd at White Water Safari''s "obnoxiously long queue line" pop hahahahah, great list.
It's true haha.
This park has the best skyline out of all the ones I have been to outside of maybe cedar point
It has an underrated skyline for sure from the parking lot.
RIP Hammerhead Shark (Found out on Reddit it got removed for its motors to be used on Wonder Woman)
Dang!
The operations their have actually gotten better!
Couldn't get worse! Hope they keep it up.

Joker is my favorite. Sorry Medusa was closed. That one is usually reliable.
Joker is also my favorite there
Nice!
Any ranking for this park feels very theoretical, given that half the coasters are likely to be closed for any visit.
Can confirm. I got lucky and rode all coasters except Flash, but Joker was down nuncio the last hour of park operations.
Most coasters have opened for me each day...albeit with a lot of downtime.
You should have included every ride there including kiddie rides, the animal exhibit rides, rides you have not ridden, and maybe even the plane and car ride to get to Discovery Kingdom, and then whatever that adds up to, make HQCC an honorable mention and say it would be in last place, no matter how long it would be.
Heh. And maybe rank it behind some of the benches and restrooms.
@@StamfordBridge that too
Including the one with the destroyed toilet, and fecal and urine matter all over the floor and walls.
Lol I thought this was a nice round number based on rides I could speak intelligently about.
SeaWorld SRII’s are the only ones with uncomfort collars.
I don't mind them too much outside of the circus loading and unloading.

i go to the park a lot and there was like two of them that i have never seen before maybe you got them mixed up with a different park.
I had to use some footage for the relocated rides in their new homes.
Solid list👌🏻
Thanks!
I agree because in Kong, you bump your head a lot which is really uncomfortable.
It's unfortunate.
I am going tommorow its goingot be so fun
Enjoy!
i love joker, i rank it above cannibal which im aware is an unpopular opinion.
I think that's reasonable.
I am going here tomorrow looks crazy.
Enjoy!

It's the operations that hurt this park.
I also know in Six Flags Mexico there's a Vekoma Boomerang, a Vekoma SLC, and a Morgan Hyper. What do you think about each one?
Superman is amazing. Boomerang is ok. Batman is bad.
If Kong had those vest restraints found on Great Nor'Easter at Morey's Piers, is there any chance that ride might've made the list?
Likely
If you don’t mind me asking, how tall do you have to be to clear the over the over the shoulder restraints on arrow loopers and vekoma boomerangs?
Well he's 5'9" so I guess about that tall.. Sorry I don't know his name so I'll keep saying he. He forgets that he's also very thin, so the restraint can basically go completely flat on his chest, so it's not just about height. When I was overweight I would bang my head and I am 6ft4! Now I am slim and I Can get it flat and clear my head. So it's a combination of things.
My guess is like 5’7”-5’8” I’m 5’10” and I clear it by a couple of inches
Not sure. Depends on your upper torso height.
Can someone tell me where hammerhead shark is at the park? I want to ride it next time I go there
It was apparently removed.
CGA top 10 coming as well?
I'd like to return there first.
I went on thrilla gorilla and it’s hella fast and fun, u can hit ur head tho but it’s still fun
It's deceptively fast.
@@CanobieCoaster fs
Would you like to go again to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom? What do you think?
Yes
For fright fest they took out the seats of Harley Quinn And HammerHead shark for decoration They put the seats all around the park.
Six Flags New England did the same thing with Goliath.
@@CanobieCoaster probably because they had nothing to do with the seats
First of all roar is still there it is my home park and the renamed the coaster joker
Joker reused Roar's structure, but the layout is way different.
also, Flash Vertical Velocity is OPEN!!!
Sweet! That's unfortunately a rarity for me.
only park with a freespin, skyrocket 2, boomerang, intamin impulse, wild mouse, and an SLC to top it all off. way too many cloned rides, most of which kinda suck.
edit: yes i know the flash isn't actually a clone.
I don't mind good clones like Superman and the impulse.
I thought Batman wasn’t intense like a starting coaster then go to Medusa it was not it was crazy and when I went upside down I was floating so fun one of my favorites rides in the park and dropping upside down is crazy
It's quite wild.
Also Don’t Forget To Go To The Zoo Or Else
Your Not Getting The Full Experience Especially

I don't, but I know others do.
Fun fact Six Flags Discovery Kingdom is my home park
Nice!

Yes, twice.

Boomerang and Medusa can.

It was? Didn't realize that.
Would you say this pandemonium is better than the one at New England
I think so, but they're close.
Hi
Hi
The one problem with the park is the coasters and rides breaking down all the time
I've had that problem too.
Its gotten better tho!
Sidewinder Safari is open?
I believe it is.
Yes

Me personally don’t like Kong it’s so rough but 🤷♀️
It's painful.
