The roughest coaster I've ridden is Nighthawk at Carowinds. The first coaster to give me headbanging without hard OTSRs "So what is it, where did it come from, and where did it go? This is the story of Cotton Eye Joe"
I said it once and I’ll say it again. I LOVE that you provide the full POV at the end. You educate us first, so we know what we are looking at, then get to ride the attraction at the end. Great format!
The Roughest Coaster I have Ridden (out of 30 Coasters) is Bandit at Movie Park in Germany :D its so rought, ugh, the Turns are Corner after Corner, the Drops are like stairs you are going down
This one is pretty bad, but it can get worse out there. But to be honest, I am not surprised. This thing was built by RCCA, and their coasters don't age well. During the first one or two seasons, it was actually pretty decent. But that has bin a loooooooong time ago.
Having ridden this coaster, I can confirm it is so painful and easily the roughest coaster I have ever ridden. I tend to be able to tolerate most rough coaster, but this ride simply doesn't have any good points to take away.
Overall I'd say great American scream machine at Georgia or timberwolf at worlds of fun. Both had horrific jack hammering, though I've heard both have had track work since I last rode. Steel, I'd probably say Ninja at St Louis.
I saw this coaster when I was in France last year! They have a lot of so-called "luna parks" in that area and the park in which this ride is located is one too. These parks operate during the evening/night only, hence all those bright lights & stuff.
This thing is a legend here in Europe. I sadly didn't get to ride it yet. My roughest steel coaster was undoubtedly Great American Scream Machine ad Six Flags Great Adventure. What of course did not help was having a terrible sunburn on both shoulders while I visited the park. For wooden coasters, it wood - er would 😅be the RCCA coaster at Parque Warner in Madrid (I would have to look up its name). I remember while riding, my hope was switching between "let this be over soon" and "please let me die".
Mine is blue streak at cp. it is so shakey but fun. It is the roughest in row six but tolerable in the front. And I’ve ridden American eagle in a wheel seat and I thought viper was rougher, ae was actually smoother than Batman for me
This was at my home park… and it was brutal! But it was Scotlands biggest and best so we loved tornado. Even if it did bruise and batter you about haha
Yeah, I remember Tornado. I have a few POV's that I captured of the ride back in 2010 & 2011. It was notoriously rough & did throw you around quite a bit, but, it was fun & pretty ace, not to mention unique. I'm glad to see it still operating & not scrapped.
The roughest for me was a tie...Son of Beast I was able to ride with and without the loop!! It was awesome. And then Blue Streak at Conneaut Lake Park I rode in 2019 and once was enough!! Lol. Sadly, they scrapped the historical Blue Streak last year.
the cyclone at lakeside amuesment park colorado. If you can find anything interesting about the coaster beside it being an ace preservation coaster. Lakeside is a weird park like the one in carloina that deserves a full video
I've ridden quite a few janky coasters, but the coaster at the New York Casino in Las Vegas has to be the roughest ride out of them all. I hit my head on the restraints so many times that by the end of the run I had a headache.
Video idea: There was also an inverted coaster at M&D's which sadly didn't end to well... The coaster was the Pinfari model XP48 and only four of these mdels were ever built.
Son of Beast 💯 the first season I don’t remember it being super rough but every year after for sure. When being young and healthy and it still beating me to death was pretty bad. Lol
I’ve honestly ridden very few truly BAD coasters since I’ve become an enthusiast (which was about 2019, and even now I only have 39 credits), so the roughest (and worst) for me is Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit at Universal Orlando. I’ll admit it has one great moment of airtime and the restraints are decent, but some of those transitions are absolute NECK-SNAPPERS!
Roar at Six Flags America. I put my arms down and held onto the bar, not because I was afraid I would hit anything but because I was afraid I would snap my shoulders or elbows from the vibration.
I can tell from the new pov that it runs MUCH less shaky. The profiling still looks like a coaster from the 70’s and not the late 90’s, but I’m sure it’s more tolerable now. I bet that double loop is really intense with how fast the train goes through it, too!
Kong at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. It's a SLC which was relocated from Opryland in Tennessee. I've got no words to describe it. But you know what is the SLCs reputation.
The Dragon at Adventureland in Altoona Iowa beat you to death. They finally got rid of it. They have a Tornado all wood coaster there as well. Fun ride. Was the longest wood coaster when it was installed in 77-78.
Please do a video on the infamous splash hill on Over the Falls at the now defunct Euclid Beach Park in Northern Ohio. No restraints, and NOTHING to hold on to, like sitting on a park bench. As as soon as you began to be launched out of the boat, it straightened out. Horrifying. I heard it was the steepest hill in the park. PS - I love your stuff.
It’s a 3 way tie for me. I rode robin on Batman and robin the chiller, the great American scream machine when it had two loops, and viper. Funny enough all three at great adventure
Hey. May you please cover jiang team coaster at a Chinese park because it features one of the most monstrosity cars I’ve ever seen, which is why I call it “the rubble smoothers you with your pillow while you sleep coaster”
Six Flags Over Georgia "Ninja" before they changed the name and replaced the trains. Six Flags Over Georgia,s "Great American Scream Machine" before they retracked Parts of it, the Bunny Hops before the break run was a back breaker. I had a technique where I kind of raised my butt up a little bit and put the roughness into my legs.
Roughest coasters ive ridden, probably grizzly and anaconda at kings dominion. Also when Riddlers revenge at six flags new england used to be mind eraser when they had the bad restraints, that was very rough. I gotta say el toro as much as many love it.
I have i fo about the other coaster that's the same as this one. It was called hurricane while it was in a park/mall here in Argentina/ Buenos Aires. If interested I might be able to get you more info.
3:05 Hilarious! I remember seeing Pinfari models @ IAAPA Expo's. They looked as intense as Schwazkopf's. I tell people that steel coasters can "rough you UP" sometimes as bad or worse the the wooden ones.
If I only have Saturday and next day Sunday to go to Kings Island and Kennywood this weekend, which park which day?? Not sure of the crowd levels at each park on weekends at the end of June
I rode Gotham last year and it was the worst and most painful coaster experience I have ever had. 2 weeks after the ride I was still in slight pain and bruised. After the two loops you already want to get off. Unfortunately it gets worse after that. Absolutely not recommended... But thanks for this video.
And this kids is why pinfari coasters should stay small. How much do you want to bet the high G-forces is why it got warped. I just hope the new park can keep it somewhat smooth.
@@RedHitMarker1 not low, just all over the place. I actually found HellCat’s second redeemable less than 24hrs earlier. Coaster Express is constant Jackhammering in the back, just ok atm toward the front. I somehow found Jaguar to be a tad better than my 2017 ride on Great ‘nor Easter but still trash
For sureee X2. Which sucks cuz it used to be so smooth when it first opened. It was my favorite ever. Now, I can barely do it without getting a massive headache...
Our own M&Ds and its a shocking place now and us Scots would love a propa theme park instead we travel to England (Blackpool alton towers Thorpe Park flamingo land) , they have loads of parks too.
The roughest roller coaster I've riden was called The Voyage (Holiday World) I thought I might die. I found out that a lady my age from Ohio rode The Voyage last summer and died from an aortic aneurysm after coming back to the station unconscious. She passed away at the hospital. I would never ride it again. It was horrible.
THE WORLDS WORST! THIS IS A BIG STATEMENT TO MAKE DUDE! HOPEFULLY THE VID DOES IT JUSTICE. ..CAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF REALLY BAD TOSS OUT THERE YOU KNOW THE SUSPECTS I'M REFERRING TO ......SERIOUSLY THOUGH LOVE THE VIDS KEEP EM COMING MATE.. LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ONE...JULES IN THE UK
The roughest coaster I've ridden is Nighthawk at Carowinds. The first coaster to give me headbanging without hard OTSRs

Oh and roughest ride? Windjammer or Psychlone woody at SFMM

Great video! I enjoyed watching!
blue tornado at gardaland is literally insane with how rough it is
Having ridden this coaster, I can confirm it is so painful and easily the roughest coaster I have ever ridden. I tend to be able to tolerate most rough coaster, but this ride simply doesn't have any good points to take away.
Fot what it’s worth, the updated color scheme made it more appealing.
Mine Blower at FunSpot Kissimmee. Love the ride, but there's no reason it should be as rough as it is considering it's less than 5 years old. 😅
Overall I'd say great American scream machine at Georgia or timberwolf at worlds of fun. Both had horrific jack hammering, though I've heard both have had track work since I last rode. Steel, I'd probably say Ninja at St Louis.
I saw this coaster when I was in France last year! They have a lot of so-called "luna parks" in that area and the park in which this ride is located is one too. These parks operate during the evening/night only, hence all those bright lights & stuff.
the layout actually looks pretty fun and the ride has decent length. glad to see it’s running well in a new home
Yep, this is a really rough and painful ride. I had the unpleasant pleasure of riding it in Scotland. Great video!
This thing is a legend here in Europe. I sadly didn't get to ride it yet.
My roughest steel coaster was undoubtedly Great American Scream Machine ad Six Flags Great Adventure. What of course did not help was having a terrible sunburn on both shoulders while I visited the park.

From the looks of the pov, they’ve really smoothed it out.

The roughest coasters I’ve ridden( I can’t narrow it down to 1) is either Blue Tornado-Europa Park, rushtenanen-Bakken or Tornado-Bakken
Roughest coaster for me is magnum XL 200, used to be one of my favorites but it has gotten very bad over the years. I was in pain last time i rode it
I've ridden quite a few janky coasters, but the coaster at the New York Casino in Las Vegas has to be the roughest ride out of them all. I hit my head on the restraints so many times that by the end of the run I had a headache.
That would be the Big Apple Coaster, which seems to be almost everyone’s least favorite! 😁
From what I remember, the roughest I've been on was the now defunct Cannonball Run at Waterville USA
Video idea: There was also an inverted coaster at M&D's which sadly didn't end to well...
The coaster was the Pinfari model XP48 and only four of these mdels were ever built.
Son of Beast 💯 the first season I don’t remember it being super rough but every year after for sure. When being young and healthy and it still beating me to death was pretty bad. Lol
I rode this as tornado it was horrible my shoulders were bleeding like really

If anything the paint job looks nice.
Roar at Six Flags America. I put my arms down and held onto the bar, not because I was afraid I would hit anything but because I was afraid I would snap my shoulders or elbows from the vibration.
This got to be one of the most beautiful Pinfaris out there
Are you aware of the"Xpress" coaster model? Basiclly Pinfari's answer to the Vekoma SLC.
Nice to hear it wasn't scrapped, & it's nice to hear it's running well at its new home.

The roughest I’ve been on was alpine sled coaster at winter wonderland Hyde park London
Hey. May you please cover jiang team coaster at a Chinese park because it features one of the most monstrosity cars I’ve ever seen, which is why I call it “the rubble smoothers you with your pillow while you sleep coaster”
The roughest coaster I’ve been on was vortex at kings island before they tore it down. My head was constantly hitting the restraints

I found El Toro unbearably rough in 2019, so it probably needed that retrack years ago
you must have a low roughness tolerance then

Toughest coaster I've ridden: The Texas Giant, before it was RMCed.
*Roughest.
Range at yesterland farm not just because it's a kids coaster it's the roughest roller coaster I've ridden
Definitely looks awesome
Minderaser at Darian lake
the big one, big dipper and infusion at blackpool pleasure beach are all equally brutal
Didn't they replace the track a couple of years back? I agree I went on that in 2008 & it was rough.
@@hardcoreuproar2322 they did - if anything those were some of the toughest sections lol
roughest*
Our own M&Ds and its a shocking place now and us Scots would love a propa theme park instead we travel to England (Blackpool alton towers Thorpe Park flamingo land) , they have loads of parks too.
Whirlwind at Knoebels Grove, PA
Can you do Wild Mouse at Eagle Park in Cache, OK?
You should do a video on the original Bat someday!
Omg this looks horrifying lol. Pinfari should never ever be making looping coasters . Ever !😂
My roughest coaster was probably "Anaconda" at Kings Dominion
Otherwise known as Batman The Ride, but it's headbanging galore
Also, you forgot to mention that at one point, the coaster was used for a publicity stunt where people where challenged to eat lunch on-ride
The roughest roller coaster I've riden was called The Voyage (Holiday World) I thought I might die. I found out that a lady my age from Ohio rode The Voyage last summer and died from an aortic aneurysm after coming back to the station unconscious. She passed away at the hospital. I would never ride it again. It was horrible.
You’ve got guts… and I can’t help but respect it! 🫡
Didn't understand the cough-steel curtain reference?
Roughest coaster was probably Big Dipper at blackpool pleasure beach, when me and my sister came off she said her legs were throbbing in pain
Try furious Baco at portadventura. I experienced vibrations in my head!!!!
Italy gave us pinfari and the zamperla volare. Do they hate us?
Rough coaster Thunderhawk at Dorney park
THE WORLDS WORST! THIS IS A BIG STATEMENT TO MAKE DUDE! HOPEFULLY THE VID DOES IT JUSTICE. ..CAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF REALLY BAD TOSS OUT THERE YOU KNOW THE SUSPECTS I'M REFERRING TO ......SERIOUSLY THOUGH LOVE THE VIDS KEEP EM COMING MATE.. LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ONE...JULES IN THE UK
I got beat up on a smooth coaster. I bruised my tailbone on Phantoms Revenge double down before the final turn.
That ending does hurt!! It's been quite a long time since I've been to Kennywood.
I got whip lash from Carolina cyclone
Steel Curtain has a mini me!
The roughest coaster I’ve been on is jetline
I've been on this roller coaster before and after the corkscrew it was better after but it was an experience 🤣
Lol
Hades 360 100% it is a boxing match it leaves your ribs bruised
That ride could be ELITE if Mt Olympus gave enough of a s*** to fully retrack the darn thing!
Cool Coaster
well, at least it doesn’t have the corkscrew
Furious Baco portadventura vibrations in your head
Hero at Flamingoland is the world's WORST coaster! Zamperla should be sued! 🤣🤣🤣
Isn't that one of their Volare flying coaster models? They are all pretty bad.
looks fun. I would ride it. worst coaster I ever rode was scorpion at Bush Gardens Orlando. So glad its gone. muhahahaha
Bush gardens is Tampa!
Actually it’s not. It’s still running as the oldest coaster there
The amount of times this ride made my ears bleed😫😫
The worst coaster I have been on is Son Of Beast both versions of it.
Wildcat lake compounce
For me, Son of Beast remains the worst I've ever ridden
Worst coaster is the SLC at Elitch Gardens
KONG!
Wildcat should be burned to the ground! I give it a chance everytime I go and it just kills me.
Turbo , Brighton pier uk 🎢 it’s shocking 👎🏻
