  • Front Row POV of Monstre at La Ronde, the largest wooden roller coaster in Canada and the tallest two-track coaster in the world. This roller coaster can be found at La Ronde amusement park in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The ride can be seen from many of the buildings in Montreal, as it is situated on an island in the middle of the city, once where the World Expo took place. #rollercoaster #laronde #montreal #quebec #amusementpark #amusementinsider

    I used to fear this ride growing up, then the one time my dad made me do Le Goliath, suddently Le Monstre looked nice next to that, so I went to do it, and it was fun. Did both tracks. I love doing it whenever I go there. One of the best rides, it's iconic.

      Grew up getting thrashed around on this thing. It used to be a lot worse; considering how massive the structure is combined with its age, I think they've done a pretty good job on it in the past few years. I'll always love this thing.
      Still wouldn't be opposed to an RMC treatment... not that that seems terribly likely under six flags ownership.

      Easy. We love our old jank rides. This is the only big theme park in the entire province of Québec and Le monstre is our only wooden coaster + a piece of our History with a potential for 8 million votes. It ain't better than El Toro, it ain't better than X2, it's not the tallest wooden coaster (it's the tallest dual-track wooden coaster though), not the fastest, not the best airtime and it was built using very limited space, which is why the tracks pass through the structure so many times. It used to run 2 trains simultaneously on each track and just that alone with the old trains made for a very different experience than today. Trains were lighter and didn't cause an earthquake from putting so much stress on the structure + the restraint was only a single metal bar. It didn't squeeze your nuts for being so tight.
      And finally, La Ronde is not a Six Fucks park. It was bought out by them then left to rot. The only decent ridesWe don't care about the rides at six flags parks in the states and we overall don't give a shit about six flags themselves. Maybe El Toro is better but do we care? Nope. Someone made that contest known to more than just coaster enthusiasts and this is the result.
