Solid list Doc! You and I but heads on Millenium Force ranking though..lol jk. Happy New Year to you and yours! Here's to riding more coasters in 2023.🍾🥂
Great vid, thank you! I share your views on a lot of coasters (though there are many on this list I haven't ridden yet) and appreciate the inclusion of Cheetah Hunt. Also love your humour - thanks and keep up the good work! Hope to be coming soon to Atlanta for AF1 all the way from London, UK :)
Ay I peeped that Braves shirt, go Braves! Would give anything to have the original Mindbender back. It's the coaster that got me into coasters honestly.
Great list Mr. Doctor Coasters can’t wait to come to GA to ride Goliath, Twisted Cyclone and another exciting new coaster next year “ArieForce One” can’t wait to get rides on those and see you then🙌. Look liked you had a great year also👏.
Great Countdown. You missed one thing imo; Considering that while some people discount Lighting Rod for not having as long and fast an uphill launch as it did in 2016 when it opened (assuming anyone who visited Dollywood in 2016 actually got to ride it that year due to the amount of down time it suffered that year) It's more likely that Lightning Rod is discounted NOW for no longer qualifying as a wooden coaster, since most of what used to be topper track has now been "RMC"'d by RMC. As far as roughness for the remaining 3 RMC topper tack coasters: Wildfire in Sweden doesn't suffer from either problem; nor does Goliath at SFGA Illinois. I'm not saying Lightning Rod is worse than Goliath at SFGA Illinois; I'm pretty sure it isn't. But Wildfire in Sweden is the best wooden RMC coaster today, and the only two other wooden coasters that I think are that good are El Toro (If it was operating and perhaps not as rough as it was during the short time it was open in 2022) and The Voyage. Of those three coasters: I've only ridden El Toro. I rode it May 30th through June 2nd 2022 and it was so rough I could add Ghostrider at Knott's and The Cyclone at Coney Island Luna Beach Brooklyn NYC to the best wooden coaster I've ridden, not to mention Coaster at Playland in Vancouver through Halloween 2020 before it closed then re-opened in July 2022 w seatbelts that significantly degraded the ride experience, but not as significantly as it would harm operations, since it's still using 1 train ops during the fair as it's done since Halloween 2018; the last time Coaster at Playland in Vancouver had 2 train ops. (BTW there was a time Coaster had 3 train ops). BTW What did you say @ 14:02? "This is the 1st Fury coaster that I've ever ridden"? What other Fury coaster would you be referring to? I love that you prefer Velocicoaster to Iron Gwazi since the former is the best Intamin Blitz coaster with more elements, a longer tack length and more significantly longer ride duration from drop (or i this case 1st launch) to EBR (end brake run). Thanks for posting, and Happy New Year!
Nice ranking! For having done less than 100 credits this is a really strong group of coasters. It seems that more and more people are putting Iron Gwazi as their number 1 coaster and that Velocicoaster has been left in the dust. Nice to see someone who still ranks Velocicoaster as their number 1.
I really focused on getting so a lot of solid parks this year, but all bets are off going forward😂 And yeah, I just couldn’t get myself to put Gwazi up there when it physically hurts lol
Looks like we have a lot of the same coasters ranked pretty high, just different rankings. For me it is about rerideability. My top 10 are: 1. Fury 325 2. Orion 3. Millennium Force 4. Gatekeeper 5. Diamondback 6. Goliath 7. Steel Vengeance 8. Valravn 9. Copperhead Strike 10 Intimidator Mystic Timbers is also my highest ranked woodie at number 11.
Your presentation and confidence is amazing. If you SEO your TH-cam channel and do a little marketing, I think your popularity and recognition will spread worldwide.
Hey handsome Dr Chili Dip! Nice ranking. My top 12 is (new rule applied that single ride cannot be in top 10 because I can't assess with 1 ride only): 1 iron gwazi (almost same # as u) 2 iron rattler 3 fury 325 (almost same #) 4 storm Runner 5 pantheon 6 lightning Rod (same #) 7 copperhead strike 8 skyrush 9 mako (same) 10 El Toro 11 hagrids (almost the same #) 12 veloci coaster
Yooo just wanna say I recently found your channel and it’s awesome! Over Georgia is my home park too and I’m going to Busch gardens Tampa and sea world Orlando next month. Can’t wait to try out iron gwazi and Mako. Goliath and twisted cyclone are my favorites at SFOG
I’m kind of the opposite. I thought Steel Vengeance blew Gwazi away and just had me laughing uncontrollably. Gwazi has a better first drop but I just felt Vengeances other hills were more intense. Gawzi isn’t as painful on my legs though lol
A bad and unpopular opinion I think twisted cyclone is better than hagrids I feel like twisted cyclone is more fun and thrilling and hagrids is fun it’s still up there up there but velocicoaster is def better and maybe next year I will ride iron gwazy i think it will be better than all
If twisted cyclone was much much much longer then I would agree but with how short TC is compared to Hagrids, it's a no brainer for me and that's coming from someone who's home park is SFOG
Amazing list I love to see Orion so high because it is for me too it’s 5 for me and velocicoaster is also 1 for me!
Very similar!
A fantastic set of rankings the best I've watched honestly enjoyed every second ...top vid mate...excellent. ...JULES IN THE UK happy new yr
Oh wow, thank you so much!
Solid list Doc! You and I but heads on Millenium Force ranking though..lol jk. Happy New Year to you and yours! Here's to riding more coasters in 2023.🍾🥂
I can get down with more coasters for sure!

awesome list! summer night IG rides are waiting for us in 2023!!!!
I can’t even imagine🤯
Ay I peeped that Braves shirt, go Braves! Would give anything to have the original Mindbender back. It's the coaster that got me into coasters honestly.
Same! That’s why I get so heated over it!
Great list Mr. Doctor Coasters can’t wait to come to GA to ride Goliath, Twisted Cyclone and another exciting new coaster next year “ArieForce One” can’t wait to get rides on those and see you then🙌. Look liked you had a great year also👏.
Can’t wait to get rides with you!!!

I said “first giga coaster”😅 and Happy New Year!
Nice ranking! For having done less than 100 credits this is a really strong group of coasters.

2. Orion
3. Millennium Force
4. Gatekeeper

Mystic Timbers is also my highest ranked woodie at number 11.
Rerideability is so important! Totally agree with you there
Your presentation and confidence is amazing.

Hey handsome Dr Chili Dip! Nice ranking.
My top 12 is (new rule applied that single ride cannot be in top 10 because I can't assess with 1 ride only):
1 iron gwazi (almost same # as u)
2 iron rattler
3 fury 325 (almost same #)
4 storm Runner
5 pantheon
6 lightning Rod (same #)
7 copperhead strike
8 skyrush
9 mako (same)
10 El Toro
11 hagrids (almost the same #)
12 veloci coaster
2:38 you forgot the helix that got new track but is still extremely rough
That thing is so brutal😢
Good video, Sean! You were very lucky to be able to do your internship in Orlando. Hope to ride with you soon!
I sure was!😅 Hope to ride soon too!
Yay Goliath deserves the love! Nice ranking man I can’t wait to ride Gwazi and Velocicoaster now!
Thank you! They’re both so good!!!
We still share the same number one!
We do indeed!
Where ArieForce One? It suppose to be number one! 😂😂😂
Not yet😂
Yooo just wanna say I recently found your channel and it’s awesome! Over Georgia is my home park too and I’m going to Busch gardens Tampa and sea world Orlando next month. Can’t wait to try out iron gwazi and Mako. Goliath and twisted cyclone are my favorites at SFOG
Thank you so much! You’ll have a blast!
I’m kind of the opposite. I thought Steel Vengeance blew Gwazi away and just had me laughing uncontrollably. Gwazi has a better first drop but I just felt Vengeances other hills were more intense. Gawzi isn’t as painful on my legs though lol
Newer RMCs just hurt😂 ArieForce One probably will too
A bad and unpopular opinion I think twisted cyclone is better than hagrids I feel like twisted cyclone is more fun and thrilling and hagrids is fun it’s still up there up there but velocicoaster is def better and maybe next year I will ride iron gwazy i think it will be better than all
Not too bad, just depends on your preferences!
If twisted cyclone was much much much longer then I would agree but with how short TC is compared to Hagrids, it's a no brainer for me and that's coming from someone who's home park is SFOG
So you’re saying these coasters are all tops ?
All tops, no bottoms
Well they certainly aren't bottoms. 😐
Do you know what your 100th will be?
Either ArieForce One or Guardians
@@doctorcoaster each would be solid!
