Thank you! I’m not the only one who thinks the same, people always look at me funny when I say how rough grand national was, honestly I’ve never experienced so much pain on a rollercoaster before!
The worst ride I've ever been on was a Vekoma SLC called Flight Deck at Canadas Wonderland. Now this ride had me actually crying at the end of it because it smashed my head directly into the "padded" restraints so much I think it probably turned my brain into a bouncy ball simulator on the side of my skull for the duration of the ride. It made me never want to go on a rollercoaster again. Which was a good thing considering the ride my family wanted to go on next was a Zamperla Volare called timewarp, which I think would have sworn me of roller coasters for life. Also that Pinfari Looping coaster you showed on Brighton Pier is something I'm still too scared to go on after I heard an entire group of grown men exit that ride groaning in pain like they'd just experienced whiplash in a car crash.
Gerstlauer are rough in general I feel! Obviously with tech and hydraulic lap bar restraints we'll all love mack coasters however I'm ready to #prayforcolossus! Great video
@@ThatCoasterCrew haha! But colossus is very unlucky to get lapbars as the clearance would have to be wider unfortunately. BUT i still love colossus its a great coaster
the wooden coasters in blackpool ride like they've been standing in salty sea air for 100 years, because they have and i love them for it! I don't mind rides that beat you up a little bit, as long as there's also a few smooth rides in the park. I feel like some coaster enthousiasts make a problem out of every little rattle even if it's not uncomfortable. like on mack bobsleds or gerstlauers
I don't personally like Gerstlauers because I genuinely don't like how rough they can get but I don't mind other rough coasters! Like I said I really enjoy Vampire and Colossus and I don't mind the new B&M rattles it doesn't destroy the ride experience for me
Great example of a good rough ride and a bad rough ride is minebuster at Canada's wonderland and then... there's flight deck (formally top gun). One of them is a timeless classic that is always my friends and I's last ride of the day, pretty much a tradition at this point. The other one I have ridden once and never again.
I do genuinely believe though, that a little bit of roughness can enhance a ride experience. Makes it feel more intense. Thats why I love GCI's in general. The amplified noise and the authentic feel of them. Like you can really feel the track underneath you. Of course too much of anything can have a negative effect. Prefabricated wooden coasters feel a little weird. They're way too smooth lol.
I know what you mean! when a ride is too smooth it always feels a bit off?? also coasters with minimal noise scare me like how are you that heavy but so silent???
I find rattles to be kinda fun sometimes if u aren’t wearing solid over the shoulder restraints like on old B&M’s. I specifically remember when me n my friend were on an older intamin n it had a rattle on the valleys which led to my scream sounding all funny. We ended up laughing our butts off the whole ride
Its a huge shame that new b&m’s are starting to rattle but at the same time it doesn’t stop me from liking them. But it is a shame to see my fav manufacturer get liked less by people
OMG what you said about wrapping your arms around the restraint and sticking your head out on Colossus was exactly what I did when preparing for the corkscrews as a kid and for the photo right after them. It was back in 2010 so I might be wrong but I swear I also did it for the final barrel roll into the station. I only remember this because I have the on ride photo of me doing it lol. Apparently I also did something similar with Shockwave at Drayton Manor for the Barrel roll as I am leaning my neck and head forward as far as it can go in the photo
i love your editing style so much i feel roughness can definitely effect the ride, but if the layout is good enough, i can look past it *cough* *cough* colossus
Rattlesnake is a very rough ride to lots of people and people think that it makes it bad but I think that its roughness is a part of its thrill and charm, I always find it hilarious when I’m slamming into people on the first curves 😂😂😂😂
yeah rattlesnake has no business being that rough but I always have a good time with my friends when I go on it but I wouldn't be upset if It was ever removed ahahaha. But to be fair wild mouse coasters are always crusty
I think roughness only matters if it’s painful. E.G Hyperia has a rattle but it’s not painful so doesn’t matter. Restraints are also a big factor, as if a ride like saw or colossus had lap bars they would be so much better as there would be no headbanging. I also don’t mind roughness when the ride is very aggressive and throws you about anyway E.G my no1 is Eejenaika which is quite shaky but you don’t notice on ride because it feels like a plane crash anyway. Lastly, some roughness can add character to a ride. Fujiyama in Japan is a really good coaster but the ending is insanely rough. It is painful and makes it really hard to re ride but as me and my dad were just being ragdolled by every transition it was hilarious
@@iliketrains3546 thats a great interesting take and I agree with all of them! Saw and other gerstlaurs are hard for me to enjoy (sorry if i spelt that wrong) because of how close you are to others next to you and just have jolty/how many variables there are to go wrong. I prefer colossus because it always jolts in the same places and sometimes it doesn’t even happen, this year its definitely been running better and it’s still one of my favs but its by no means smooth! I do hope they fix hyperia because if its like this already its going to age badly which is a shame because its a great coaster! I love the way you described eejenaika made me chuckle thank you! Haha
I think it all boils down to the train, both Hades 360 and Vekoma SLC’s are rough coasters, but if you ask the average well-traveled enthusiast if they like H360, they will say yes. However, ask the same enthusiast if they like a Vekoma SLC, they will immediately respond with “no”. H360 has the comfortable Gravity Group trains and the SLC’s have the stupid ear-pads.
my first time on el condor in walibi holland which is the first slc, i didnt brace myself cause i didnt know truely how bad it was and because of the vests not holding you in too tightly multiple points it consatntly slams you forward and then back into the seat and it gave me neck pain for like 3 days it was awful also keep up the awesome editing its so funny lol :D
The Ultimate rode like a magnitude 9 earthquake, it's gone to the scrapyard now but it was horrible, bruised my knees, those lap bars were the biggest pile of poop to have ever been pooped Also Rattlesnake definitely rattles me *insert Rattlesnake by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard here*

@@Q4Coasters Yeah, I used to have a POV of Turbo on my channel but it's lost media now (it sucked), I also had a video that showed how headbangy Furius Baco was
I don't mind roughness if it's an intense ride like on Odyssey or The Smiler (even tho smiler ain't rough 😘) but if it's a boring ride or just a family coaster roughness is just a bit shit
@@Calidex totally nailed it, Smiler isn’t that bad but I just totally think its a front row ride haha, honestly not even sure how family rides become rough! It has to be neglected maintenance or it being bad from day 1 ahaha
@@Q4Coasters there’s that section with like 3 high speed banked turns very close to overhead supports and I thought I was actually going to die. The whip over the crest of that first drop though kinda goes hard.

That's so interesting that you find stealth rough? I haven't heard that very much, they have refurbished the trains now so maybe that will improve the quality of the ride experience!
