According to his own rankings, Prairie Screamer has beaten all Vekoma, Premier Rides, and S&S coasters he's ever ridden. (Obviously there are some rides by at least some of those manufacturers that could beat Prairie Screamer, but he hasn't ridden them yet. He'll probably ride at least one of them this coming year, though.)
I actually Have the E&F Miller Credit That Was at Casino Pier Throughout the Second Half of the 2000’s and it pulled negative G Forces of Airtime Plus Wildmouse Style Hairpin Turning Laterals on those tight compact Turns Starjet Truly was a one Of A Kind Golden Gem on the Jersey Boardwalks Before Sandy Hit so I get the hype He Has For the Last Truly outstanding E&F Miller Coaster The Scandia Screamer or Something like that but better than Maverick and Millennium Force I think nooot
Time warp is SO close, but it just can’t beat Flight Deck! It’s truly a masterpiece. Shout out to Paramount Parks and all of the great rides they gave to Canada’s Wonderland!
My top 10 coasters I’ve ridden (out of 134 credits): 1. Velocicoaster - the perfect mix of intensity, thrills, airtime, and theming. Plus, it ends with my favorite ending to any coaster. 2. Steel Vengeance - Long, smooth, great airtime, and a top tier night ride 3. El Toro - A wooden coaster that has the demented elements of its steel counterparts 4. Iron Gwazi - the king of pacing, just might be too much intensity even for me. 5. Wildcat’s Revenge - A smaller RMC with the punch of Iron Gwazi 6. GOTG Cosmic Rewind: World’s longest indoor coaster and my most-ridden coaster of 2024 during my DCP 7. Space Mountain (WDW): Very strong ejector, top tier theming, and my most nostalgic coaster. 8. Maverick: Crazy launches, snaps, and inversions 9. Mystic Timbers: Relentless pacing and airtime, also very smooth for a woodie. I just wish that shed wasn’t as boring. 10. Millennium Force: I rode this for the first time in 2023, yet I already feel nostalgic towards this. Maybe it’s because I’m an early 2000s kid, so the vibe just hits me, I’m not sure. Honorable Mentions: Orion, Kingda Ka, and Hagrid’s
@@LydsTherinNotamonthis year is my only time riding The Beast, but my rides were utterly amazing, out of control, and had just the right amount of woodie rumble for my 50 year old self. I totally get why he has it ranked so high and I could even understand someone putting it in their top 5. It's truly a unique experience.
Nice to see Steve at number 1 still. Also here’s my top 10 1. Steel Vengeance 2. Velocicoaster 3. Maverick 4. Storm Chaser 5. Diamondback 6. Orion 7. Lightning Rod 8. Magnum xl 200 9. Mystic Timbers 10. Cosmic Rewind Coasters that have potential to enter my top 10 next year: Twisted Timbers, Pantherian(aka i305),Rapterra, Time Traveler, Outlaw Run, Raging Bull, Goliath, Maxx Force, Top Thrill 2, Sirens Curse, Iron Gwazi
I 100% agree with you on wicked cyclone! It was running so fast last year when I first ride it I had it above steel vengeance but now steel vengeance is ahead again
The best thing about twisted timbers is that you can marathon it if you come to the park at the opening. Because it's in the back of the park, you can get like 10-20 walk on rides in a row to start the day. Storm Chaser is similar in that regard.
Absolutely have done that with both coatsers, but at least for Timbers both days at KD were pretty dead. The first time I rode Timbers we did a 6 ride marathon, didnt get off for 3 of them
I literally just got over my fear of roller coasters in September and I’ve had a blast riding as many as possible since then. From my limited 29 credits here are my favorates: 1. X2 (Even without the effects working this still absolutely blew my mind) 2. Velocicoaster (Perfect pacing, great theming, and just really fun) 3. Wildcat’s Revenge (The latest and greatest of my home park) 4. Ghostrider (Smooth but still out of control, and it suddenly goes crazy after the half way turn around) 5. West Coast Racers (Just really fun IDK)
@AirtimeThrills your content is always worth the hype! Love the rankings as always. I definitely appreciate the continued love for Raging Bull and Magnum XL-200, two of my all time favorites. Really wished TT2 had went differently so I could hear your thoughts and opinions. I would've loved to see where it ranked on this list! I wasn't the biggest TTD fan but TT2 blew me away! Lastly, Here's to The Beast! Wow! What a leap forward. And a much deserved one imo. Ran great this year when we visited.
@@vegasstafford The Beast was incredible this year, Ive never felt that way about it after getting off in ANY of the trips to KI compared to this year. Enjoy it while it lasts
Top 5: (keep in mind I’ve only been to 7 theme parks) 5- Twisted Cyclone 4- Thunderhead (most underrated coaster of all time) 3- Goliath 2- Velocicoaster 1- Fury
Thunderhead is absolutely underrated. I think it is better than Mystic Timbers because it is much longer and has much more consistent airtime. I have had rides on Mystic Timbers with no airtime, but Thunderhead always has airtime.
My girls and I had a rough year with a ton of changes. We have different tastes in coasters, but we bond over watching your videos, agreeing or disagreeing with your opinions, and planning different destinations to go to for 2025. Thank you and keep up the great videos!
Love to see that my top 100 count for yours is 35/100 now. I still love Thunderhead more than Mystic Timbers after riding them back to back last year. Love the Beast respect this year. Here's to another great year of coasters in 2025 🎉
My top 50 coasters (out of 118): 1- Eejanaika (Fuji-Q Highland) - Just pure insanity and intesity from start to finish. 2- Toutatis (Parc Astérix) - Great swing launch, really dynamic layout and powerful airtime, especially backwards. 3- Voltron (Europa Park) - Some of the greatest airtime I've experienced, the beyond vertical launch is a real treat and it's forceful throughout. Only con is the rattle, which can vary from very much tolerable to headache inducing. You can also get stapled by the restraints, which lower automatically. 4- Ride to Happiness (Plopsaland de Panne) - Super varied, really strong airtime. The onboard audio is incredible and really elevates the experience. Once again a bit rough and you can get stapled by the automatic restraints. 5- Kondaa (Walibi Belgium) - Great coaster that feels like a mix of Expedition GeForce in the first half and an RMC in the second half. It's a decently intense but a bit tamer than the rides that are above it. 6- Taron (Phantasialand) - Really snappy with a few airtime pops, but it's not as powerful as the coasters in my top 5 and every half does die out by the end. 7- Expedition GeForce (Holiday Park Germany) - Insane airtime almost full throughout. Still smooth after 23 years. 8- Untamed (Walibi Holland) - My first RMC, probably underrated given I only got 2 rides on it, it's insanely well paced and has some really strong pops of airtime. 9- Tonnerre 2 Zeus (Parc Astérix) - Rattly but really intense, best airtime and pacing of any wooden coaster that I've ridden. Also best wooden coaster trains I've been on. 10- [Defunct] Wild Train (Fantasiana) - Really sentimental about this one but it was crazy, it tried to send you into space. Even got a wheel from it 😉. 11- Silver Star (Europa Park) 12- Monster (Walygator Grand Est) 13- Hals-über-Kopf (Tripsdrill) 14- OzIris (Parc Astérix) 15- Black Mamba (Phantasialand) 16- Karacho (Tripsdrill) 17- FLY (Phantasialand) 18- Fenix (Toverland) 19- Wodan Timbur Coaster (Europa Park) 20- Joris en de Draak (Vuur) (Efteling) 21- Joris en de Draak (Water) (Efteling) 22- Sky Scream (Holiday Park Germany) 23- Blue Fire (Europa Park) 24- [Retracked] Tonnerre de Zeus (Parc Astérix) 25- Fujiyama (Fuji-Q Highland) 26- Zokkon (Fuji-Q Highland) 27- Dwervelwind (Toverland) 28- Mammut (Tripsdrill) 29- Troy (Toverland) 30- Lost Gravity (Walibi Holland) 31- Goudurix (Parc Astérix) 32- Mine Blower (Fun Spot Kissimmee) 33- Anubis The Ride (Plopsaland de Panne) 34- Python (Retrack) (Efteling) 35- Baron 1898 (Efteling) 36- Avengers Assemble: Flight Force (Disneyland Paris - Walt Disney Studios Park) 37- Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain: Rebel Mission (Disneyland Paris - Disneyland Park) 38- Psyké Underground/Turbine (Walibi Belgium) 39- Winja's Fear (Phantasialand) 40- Winja's Force (Phantasialand) 41- Crush's Coaster (Disneyland Paris - Walt Disney Studios Park) 42- Pulsar (Walibi Belgium) 43- Vampire (Walibi Belgium) 44- Crazy Bats (Phantasialand) 45- Eurosat: CanCan Coaster (Europa Park) 46- Vogel Rok (Efteling) 47- Heidi the Ride (Plopsaland de Panne) 48- Vliegende Hollander (Efteling) 49- Big Thunder Mountain (Disneyland Paris - Disneyland Park) 50- Pégase Express (Parc Astérix)
@Coasterrestrepeat Hi! I am indeed a European enthusiast. My main reason for putting Voltron above RTH was the headache inducing rides I got back in September. I still loved the forces and audio of the ride, but it did leave me with a headache. Voltron impressed me in October with how much smoother it was compared to earlier this year. To be honest I also can't really decide between the rides in my top 5. I ride one and say, oh that one is better than x coaster, then I ride the other and think it's the better one. (Eejanaika has been my number 1 since 2023 tho and I don't think it will get dethroned).
hey i forgot to make this comment earlier, im now 18 and have been watching you and other enthusiast channels since i was like 14. just want to pay my respect to you since you are probably my favorite channel besides coasterdash and coaster studios. your video quality, posting consistency and video topics are awesome. i love how you find new unique ideas for top 50 or other lists. please keep it up and cheers happy new year 🥂 ❤
Good list Chris! I was able to get some new credits this year when I went to Six Flags Great America for the first time. What’s interesting is our # 1 and # 2 coasters are the exact same.
@@travisvanalst4698 I guess interesting would be a better word. I find it kind of strange we have the same number 1 and 2 considering he's ridden over 600 and my count is only 224.

My Top 10: 10. Icon at Blackpool Pleasure Beach 9. Flucht von Novgorod at Hansa-Park 8. Nemesis Reborn at Alton Towers 7. The Smiler at Alton Towers 6. Taron at Phantasialand 5. Der Schwur des Kärnan 4. DC Rivals HyperCoaster at Warner Bros. Movie World 3. Hyperia at Thorpe Park 2. F.L.Y. at Phantasialand 1. Colossos at Heide Park If a park isn't represented here just assume I haven't been there.
Keep in mind I only have like 40 credits but my top 10 are: 1. Intimidator 305 2. Twisted Timbers 3. Pantheon 4. Alpengeist 5. Apollo's Chariot 6. Dominator 7. Griffon 8. Racer 75 9. Flight of Fear 10. Tempesto All of my credits are from like 3 parks so just keep that in mind as well. Those parks are Kings Dominion, Busch Gardens Williamsburg, and SeaWorld San Diego if you're curious.
"and I'll see if it can both toss me out of my seat, crush me back into it, and give me a long ride full of elite forces, while I rock out to Kanye West." could be the best combination ever!!
After riding 117 new to me coasters this year, my top 5, 10, 15, 20, 50, and 100 have changed pretty drastically. (I had previously ridden 25 coasters across 3 parks)
As everyone is doing their top 10s, I thought I'd do my top 5 (as I only have 60 credits lol) 5. GOTG Cosmic Rewind (Epcot) - Got only 1 ride in 2022 and it was amazing. The whole experience of it is just breathtaking and is impossible to not have a massive smile on your face throughout the entire ride. Also has my favourite launch ever. 4. Hagrids Motorbike Adventure (IoA) - The best themed rollercoaster in the world. First waited over 4 hours to ride it in 2019 only 2 months after it opened and it was worth every second of waiting. 2 more rides in 2022 cemented it in my top 5. 3. Mako (Seaworld) - Airtime machine. Got my first ride and was able to marathon this in 2022. The only B&M hyper I've been on but I get why its seen as one of the best. 2. Hyperia (Thorpe Park) - Maybe the best first drop in the world. Falling 230+ feet directly downwards, 80mph, while the track turns 180 degrees beneath you, completely out of your seat the entire time is a feeling like no other. On top of that some of the best airtime and most terrifying elements I've experienced (that outerbank...). Would be my #1 if it wasn't so short. 1. Velocicoaster - The complete package. Speed, airtime, inversions, theming. My first ride (in the back row btw) when I went over the top hat had me holding on to dear life and shouting words I probably shouldn't repeat, which no coaster has ever made me do. My favourite memory of any coaster I've been on. Velocicoaster is truly the king of all coasters imo and my #1 (until I ride an RMC haha).
@@AirtimeThrills I'm from the UK and have only ever been to Orlando for coasters so they make up the majority of my list haha! I'm hoping to either get out to some European parks or go back to Orlando with my family for Epic Universe in the future! 🫶
I found it surprising that The Beast is that high, it's clear that the night rides and retrack improves this experience. Prairie Screamer as well, E&F Miler has gone nuts with this one, but I'm baffled that E&F didn't sell more of these.
Top 25 for me as of 2024: 25) MAKO - Someone puked on me and I only got one ride so may be higher if I had better experience 24) FURY 325 - This felt like Mako but less airtime hills and more twisty turns 23) MAVERICK - I got to ride this with a stuffed animal I won 22) TWISTED COLOSSUS - This one hurt my butt, otherwise I really like getting basically two rides in one 21) X2 - I like the outside seats a lot cause it’s like I’m being abused. Very sentimental 20) THE BEAST - Basically a wooden mine train and nothing special but during the ride I saw a man piss in the woods which was cool. 19) TIME TRAVELER - My friends tried to disable the magnet so we spin out of control but it didn’t work. Still fun though. 18) DIAMONDBACk - This one also made my butt hurt but the rattle gave me a satisfying tickling euphoric feeling. 17) MAXX FORCE - When the launch went boom it was very scary and cool. 16) WILDCATS REVENGE - This one made me feel like I was going to fall out of my seat! 15) EL TORO - This was my brother’s favorite ride. RIP Charlie. We spread Charlie’s ashes under the rolling thunder hill. 14) THE VOYAGE - I like how long this was. It gave me time to reflect on my life. 13) MILLENNIUM FORCE - Mid, forceless, and overrated. 12) TOUTATIS - My only coaster I rode in France cause everything else was closed. I love the French. 11) PHANTOMS REVENGE - The second drop dropped so low, I thought I was going to die. 10) PANTHEON - This one had good twists and turns and cool elements. 9) VELOCICOASTER - Like Pantheon but this one has dinosaurs 🦕 🦖!!!! 8) ARIEFORCE ONE - I got to do this 184 times in one day! 7) IRON GWAZI - Like ArieForce One but on steroids 6) OUTLAW RUN - Like Iron Gwazi but on cocaine and I prefer cocaine more than steroids. 5) OG MEAN STREAK - This one beat me up more than my old dad. 4) STEEL VENGEANCE - I really enjoy the airtime 3) KINGDA KA - 😞 2) TOP THRILL 2 - It broke down and closed when I was on it. They had to evacuate me off the top hat. That was cool. 1) PANTHERIAN - I blacked out after the first turn and died. They revived me in the hospital and it will always be my favorite
I live in Orlando and have never really gotten a great ride on Rip Ride Rocket...until this past Saturday. 3rd row on the right side and I got crazy good airtime. Not sure if I will get to experience it again, but I now get where you're coming from
3rd row huh...I rode it a bunch in 2012 and loved it but I dont remember details. 2021 I just got 1 ride in the back and that seemed like the magic row
@@AirtimeThrills Knoebels came out a big winner this year. Phoenix jumped up the list, and Flying Turns got _on_ the list. There are a lot of parks in the current Six Flags chain that don't have 2+ coasters in your top 100!
Great list! Always some surprises as to be expected... My list has no shortage of them either. I rode 40 new coasters this year, and 16 of them made it to the top 50. I did not get any rerides, so there were no jumps/falls. Out of 163 credits, here is my top 50: 50. Superman: Ultimate Flight (SFOG) 49. Nighthawk 48. Magnum XL-200 47. SheiKra 46. Griffon 45. Legend 44. Alpengeist 43. Great Bear 42. Afterburn 41. Batman the Ride (SFOG) 40. Ice Breaker 39. White Lightning 38. SkyRush 37. Lightning Run 36. Thunderbird 35. GateKeeper 34. Thunderhead 33. Mystic Timbers 32. Storm Chaser 31. Storm Runner 30. Fahrenheit 29. The Beast 28. Banshee 27. Montu 26. Cheetah Hunt 25. Mystery Mine 24. Twisted Cyclone 23. Copperhead Strike 22. Incredible Hulk 21. Apollo's Chariot 20. Millennium Force 19. The Voyage 18. Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure 17. Manta 16. Iron Gwazi 15. Diamondback 14. Pantheon 13. Thunder Striker 12. Candymonium 11. Orion 10. Twisted Timbers 9. Mako 8. Goliath (SFOG) 7. Lightning Rod (2021 ver) 6. Maverick 5. Wildcat's Revenge 4. Project 305 3. Fury 325 2. ArieForce One 1. Steel Vengeance Instead of giving my opinions for each, feel free to ask me questions instead! I will say, Steel Vengeance did not blow me away when I first rode it like some rides, but now I see why people say it's number 1. It's hard to beat just how long and complete of a ride it is. It always feels like it's worth the wait, which is hard to say about many coasters.
2024 marks the my first year since 2007 that I didn't actually make it out to a theme park so this is my unchanged top 10 10. Dragon Khan (PortAventura) 9. Fire of Duelling Dragons (Islands of Adventure) 8. Manta (SeaWorld Orlando) 7. Kraken (SeaWorld Orlando) 6. SIK (Flamingo Land) 5. Icon's spinning seat (Blackpool Pleasure Beach) 4. Incredible Hulk pre retrack (Islands of Adventure) 3. Shambhala (PortAventura) 2. Nemesis pre retrack (Alton Towers) 1. Red Force (Ferrari Land)
Absolutely love your videos! Still need to ride velocicoaster but have done SteVe and just did arieforce last month! It’s incredible. #3 on my list too!
I love your list, especially your top 2. Of the slightly over 160 coasters I've ridden, my 2nd favourite is Fury 325 and my favourite is Steel Vengeance, just like you're top two. But I only got 10 rides on SteVe, in late May 2018 whereas I got 97 on Fury 325, in three days and 4 hours of a 4th day in mid April 2023 and it's the coaster I've ridden the most after Coaster at Playland in Vancouver in 2017 alone.
I'm excited i should be going on your #2,#3,#4 for the first time this summer. Although I heard from a certain person that Fury 325 is just a basic coaster you find at any park. My current top 10: 1. Steel Vengeance 2. Maverick 3. Beast 4. Mystic Timbers 5. Pantheon 6. Wildcat's Revenge 7. El Toro 8. Twisted Timbers 9. Kingda Ka 10. Diamondback
I am confident Eejanaika and Hakugei will be in my top 50. maybe Takabisha, Fujiyama maybe a long shot, maybe Flying Dinosaur, Thunder Dolphin, heck maybe even SD2k, a lot of contenders
@@Str8trackhaters all the major ones plus some of the smaller ones but not all of them. Disney universal tobu fuji nagashima tokyo dome yomiuriland and so on
@@AirtimeThrills It's crazy, the possibilities. Do try out Pyrenees at Shima Spain Mura in Ise peninsula. By far the best B&M invert. One thing about SD2k. Most people rate it lower because of the giga expectations. If you think it's a giant version of a hyper, I am sure you'll be floored! Speed and airtime bonanza!
Got myself to Knoebels this year! Phoenix was wild. Best airtime i've gotten. This year, I have a season pass for all six flags/cedar point parks, including kings dominion. Can't wait for an epic 2025!
Love to see The Beast rise so much, one of my favorites at my home park. Here's my top 10: 1. Velocicoaster- a phenominal set of elements sequenced in the perfect order with excellent theming. 2. The Voyage- My rides in the back row during the summer were simply incredible, haven't experienced this trimless, would probably be my new #1. 3. Iron Gwazi- A wonderfully brutal RMC. Edges out Aire due to delivering an excellent night ride 4. Aireforce One- The most well-rounded RMC in my opinion, delivering much more positives than the others. 5. Fury325- The insane low to the ground elements are as good as they sound. 6. Orion- The strangest choice in my top 10, Orion retains its speed despite its large elements, making each of them extremely powerful especially during the right weather conditions. Also provides a great night ride due to its lighting package. Still worse than Fury overall though due to its shorter length. Rainy night rides on this thing are insane. 7. Steel Vengeance- Gets points for being the longest RMC and providing great airtime and inversions, though it ranks lower than gwazi and aire due to weaker pacing and a less well rounded layout. 8. Intimidator 305- Insane intensity complimented by amazing airtime moments. Is ranked lower than other gigas due to worse restraints 9. Top Thrill 2- Brutal intensity, launches, and airtime off the top hat. I hope others get to ride it soon. 10. Levithan- A great giga with excellent speed and elements, though it lacks an X factor that other gigas have. No disrespect towards it though, it's still a top tier ride.
Someone may have already commented this, but I noticed in your list at the beginning you have Sweden at two coasters in your top 50 but you list three from Sweden (Balder, Helix, Wildfire) during the video.
@@JohnSmith-mk5xm Steel Vengeance is the best coaster at CP. Maverick is my favorite though. Bur you're not wrong. I see so many people telling their friends/kids that Millie is their favorite coaster. And they can be wrong. I won't hold it against them.
@There’s no right and wrong in this subjective hobby. If you prefer sense of speed and setting you’ll like Millennium Force over Steve. Are you a new coaster enthusiast? Between the age of 12-20? If so you may be influenced by enthusiasts who tell you Steve is the best. That’s not how it works. People have different opinions.
I might be remembering it wrong, but I’ve only ridden diamondback one day and I got 3 rides on it 2 at night and 1 mid-day and it was not even the slightest bit rough.
After finally making some big coaster trips this year, and getting over a 100 new credits, I can proudly say that this is my Top 10 Roller Coasters, out of 164: 1. Iron Gwazi 2. Velocicoaster 3. Maverick 4. Steel Vengeance 5. ArieForce One 6. Goliath (Over Georgia) 7. Texas Stingray 8. Ghostrider 9. Mystic Timbers 10. Mako
Not a fan of I-305? (Or Pantherian I guess..) No matter how many parks I go to I'll never find anything that makes me feel the way that first drop into the notorious gray out turn does.
There's some real bucket list coasters on here for me. RMC keeps going from strength to strength. Brit here but am off to Poland for my 2nd RMC (1st was Untamed at Walibi Holland) in April. Bit sad not seeing more Europe on your list 😔 Have you ridden RTH & Voltron yet?
Sadly I was without a coaster ride in 2024 but here is my top 24 (out of admittedly a very small pool of options that I've ridden). Hopefully next year will be the year I finally make it over to San Anton to SF Fiesta Texas. 1 Velocicoaster tied with Iron Gwazi 1 Iron Gwazi tied with Velocicoaster 2 Cosmic Rewind best dark ride coaster 3 Pipeline the new car design is legit 4 Hagrids two coasters in one with the different riding positions 5 Manta best flying 6 Alpengeist best suspension 7 Superman Ultimate Flight SFOG bumped down by Manta 8 Mako best hyper 9 The Mummy bumped down the rankings by Cosmic Rewind but still a great coaster 10 Griffon best dive 11 Kumba still great after 30 years 12 The Incredible Hulk how is Kumba still as smooth as the Hulk when Hulk has been retracked? 13 Rip Ride Rocket not as rough as people claim it is. 14 Cheetah Hunt a solid coaster just too many good ones above it 15 Montu overrated suspension, I have no idea why so many rate this higher than Alpengeist... 16 The Big Bad Wolf, god how I miss this coaster 17 Gringots great theming saves it from being lower 18 Goliath SFOG hypers aren't my thing 19 Apollo's Chariot hypers really really aren't my thing 20 The Georgia Scorcher comfortable and good for a stand up, hope they give it pipeline trains some day 21 Batman the Ride SFOG forces are a bit too much for me and the first drop is pittifully short 22 Loch Ness Monster sorry Nessy but the competition has gotten really fierce 23 Verbolten not as good as the Wolf was
I don’t think that wicked cyclone is 4th best, but I do agree it’s an elite ride and thankful to have this at a mid size Six flags park in New England at my home park
It is funny how one ride (or one park day) can affect perception. I was so underwhelmed by twisted timbers , I don't know if it would be in my top thirty. I always laugh when I see your ranking of Rip Ride Rocket , I don't hate it like some people do though. And Magnum is my second favorite at Cedar Point, I love to see it ranked so high.
@@timothywait9457 I really thought Maverick could be one of my favorite coasters before I rode it. I think it is very overrated. Maybe I hyped it up too much in my mind. It was also painful.
I was getting nervous that my favorite ride X-2 wasn’t going to make the list. I was really surprised it was so high up your list though. It has been receiving a lot of hate over the years.
I (mostly) only ride themed coasters & am new to the coaster thoosie community, so my ride list is pretty weak, but Ill never pass up an opportunity for a ranking!!! Fantastic video as always Airtime 👏👏 1) JW: VelociCoaster 2) Hagrid's MCM Adventure 3) GOTG: Cosmic Rewind 4) GhostRider 5) Expedition Everest 6) The Joker (6FDK) 7) Revenge of the Mummy (UOR) 8) Tron Lightcycle Run (MK) 9) Incredible Hulk 10) Space Mountain (DL)
An E&F Miler beating Millennium and Maverick is insane. True underdog story.
According to his own rankings, Prairie Screamer has beaten all Vekoma, Premier Rides, and S&S coasters he's ever ridden. (Obviously there are some rides by at least some of those manufacturers that could beat Prairie Screamer, but he hasn't ridden them yet. He'll probably ride at least one of them this coming year, though.)
Right? I’m also surprised Maverick is lower than most other peoples lists
I actually Have the E&F Miller Credit That Was at Casino Pier Throughout the Second Half of the 2000’s and it pulled negative G Forces of Airtime Plus Wildmouse Style Hairpin Turning Laterals on those tight compact Turns Starjet Truly was a one Of A Kind Golden Gem on the Jersey Boardwalks Before Sandy Hit so I get the hype He Has For the Last Truly outstanding E&F Miller Coaster The Scandia Screamer or Something like that but better than Maverick and Millennium Force I think nooot
If intamin doesnt like it they should do better
I feel like Millenium Force is far better than Maverick
Time Warp at #1 is weird, but I suppose opinions change.
could Dog Fart Coaster be the dark horse of 2025?
Time warp is SO close, but it just can’t beat Flight Deck! It’s truly a masterpiece. Shout out to Paramount Parks and all of the great rides they gave to Canada’s Wonderland!
@@MattMcIrvin my proudest credit
@@CoasterCount it was the trick track double up that did it
Time warp sucks
My top 10 coasters I’ve ridden (out of 134 credits):
1. Velocicoaster - the perfect mix of intensity, thrills, airtime, and theming. Plus, it ends with my favorite ending to any coaster.
2. Steel Vengeance - Long, smooth, great airtime, and a top tier night ride
3. El Toro - A wooden coaster that has the demented elements of its steel counterparts
4. Iron Gwazi - the king of pacing, just might be too much intensity even for me.
5. Wildcat’s Revenge - A smaller RMC with the punch of Iron Gwazi
6. GOTG Cosmic Rewind: World’s longest indoor coaster and my most-ridden coaster of 2024 during my DCP
7. Space Mountain (WDW): Very strong ejector, top tier theming, and my most nostalgic coaster.
8. Maverick: Crazy launches, snaps, and inversions
9. Mystic Timbers: Relentless pacing and airtime, also very smooth for a woodie. I just wish that shed wasn’t as boring.
10. Millennium Force: I rode this for the first time in 2023, yet I already feel nostalgic towards this. Maybe it’s because I’m an early 2000s kid, so the vibe just hits me, I’m not sure.
Honorable Mentions: Orion, Kingda Ka, and Hagrid’s
I knew Raging Bull was top 50 and I thought I missed it when I was at #15 and sure enough it was 14 lol
I LOVE THE RESPECT FOR RAGING BULL
Holy hell, Beast in 38th is an incredible jump
@@LydsTherinNotamonthis year is my only time riding The Beast, but my rides were utterly amazing, out of control, and had just the right amount of woodie rumble for my 50 year old self. I totally get why he has it ranked so high and I could even understand someone putting it in their top 5. It's truly a unique experience.
Nice to see Steve at number 1 still. Also here’s my top 10
1. Steel Vengeance
2. Velocicoaster
3. Maverick
4. Storm Chaser
5. Diamondback
6. Orion
7. Lightning Rod
8. Magnum xl 200
9. Mystic Timbers
10. Cosmic Rewind
Coasters that have potential to enter my top 10 next year: Twisted Timbers, Pantherian(aka i305),Rapterra, Time Traveler, Outlaw Run, Raging Bull, Goliath, Maxx Force, Top Thrill 2, Sirens Curse, Iron Gwazi
W list
never rode fury?
@paleomaniac1 never been
@ im sure it will become top 5 once you ride it
I 100% agree with you on wicked cyclone! It was running so fast last year when I first ride it I had it above steel vengeance but now steel vengeance is ahead again
I went on this year very back row, It was running excellently. I havent ridden Steel Vengeance though, it's like 7 hours away,.
Anytime I ride Millennium in the front row I’m reminded why it’s one of the best coasters of all time
Eating 20 bugs doesn’t make it one of the best💀
@goozycoasters20? That’s it? Was a cold day?
Millenium Force is getting a glow up during the off season. new lift motor and new controls system. also paint
The best thing about twisted timbers is that you can marathon it if you come to the park at the opening. Because it's in the back of the park, you can get like 10-20 walk on rides in a row to start the day. Storm Chaser is similar in that regard.
Absolutely have done that with both coatsers, but at least for Timbers both days at KD were pretty dead. The first time I rode Timbers we did a 6 ride marathon, didnt get off for 3 of them
@@AirtimeThrills Really nice of the OPS to do that. Must have been hard on your thighs, though.
I literally just got over my fear of roller coasters in September and I’ve had a blast riding as many as possible since then. From my limited 29 credits here are my favorates:
1. X2 (Even without the effects working this still absolutely blew my mind)
2. Velocicoaster (Perfect pacing, great theming, and just really fun)
3. Wildcat’s Revenge (The latest and greatest of my home park)
4. Ghostrider (Smooth but still out of control, and it suddenly goes crazy after the half way turn around)
5. West Coast Racers (Just really fun IDK)
You have some awesome coasters on your list right there!!!
So happy to come home from work and see the other half of my most anticipated YT watch of the year! LETSGOOOO!!!
Hopefully it was worth the hype
@AirtimeThrills your content is always worth the hype!
Love the rankings as always. I definitely appreciate the continued love for Raging Bull and Magnum XL-200, two of my all time favorites. Really wished TT2 had went differently so I could hear your thoughts and opinions. I would've loved to see where it ranked on this list! I wasn't the biggest TTD fan but TT2 blew me away!
Lastly, Here's to The Beast! Wow! What a leap forward. And a much deserved one imo. Ran great this year when we visited.
@@vegasstafford The Beast was incredible this year, Ive never felt that way about it after getting off in ANY of the trips to KI compared to this year. Enjoy it while it lasts
Top 5: (keep in mind I’ve only been to 7 theme parks)
5- Twisted Cyclone
4- Thunderhead (most underrated coaster of all time)
3- Goliath
2- Velocicoaster
1- Fury
Thunderhead is absolutely underrated. I think it is better than Mystic Timbers because it is much longer and has much more consistent airtime. I have had rides on Mystic Timbers with no airtime, but Thunderhead always has airtime.
Which Goliath?
@@pabushcraft108 Over Georgia. My bad should’ve mentioned that
@D4stroyed Thanks just wanted to make sure I wasn’t thinking of the wrong one
Been looking forward to this one all year and week! 😀 The finale of 2024! 🎉 Your videos, editing style, delivery, etc. are awesome! Here's to 2025!! 🥳
“I want you to put the word out there that we back up”
- Storm Chaser probably
@@Fury325Fan i did stormy, i did
Always like waiting till both list are uploaded so I can watch them in one go. Great list!
My girls and I had a rough year with a ton of changes. We have different tastes in coasters, but we bond over watching your videos, agreeing or disagreeing with your opinions, and planning different destinations to go to for 2025. Thank you and keep up the great videos!

Love to see that my top 100 count for yours is 35/100 now.
I still love Thunderhead more than Mystic Timbers after riding them back to back last year. Love the Beast respect this year.
Here's to another great year of coasters in 2025 🎉
Great video! I like your ranking of all the coasters! I really enjoyed watching this!
My top 50 coasters (out of 118):
1- Eejanaika (Fuji-Q Highland) - Just pure insanity and intesity from start to finish.
2- Toutatis (Parc Astérix) - Great swing launch, really dynamic layout and powerful airtime, especially backwards.
3- Voltron (Europa Park) - Some of the greatest airtime I've experienced, the beyond vertical launch is a real treat and it's forceful throughout. Only con is the rattle, which can vary from very much tolerable to headache inducing. You can also get stapled by the restraints, which lower automatically.
4- Ride to Happiness (Plopsaland de Panne) - Super varied, really strong airtime. The onboard audio is incredible and really elevates the experience. Once again a bit rough and you can get stapled by the automatic restraints.
5- Kondaa (Walibi Belgium) - Great coaster that feels like a mix of Expedition GeForce in the first half and an RMC in the second half. It's a decently intense but a bit tamer than the rides that are above it.
6- Taron (Phantasialand) - Really snappy with a few airtime pops, but it's not as powerful as the coasters in my top 5 and every half does die out by the end.
7- Expedition GeForce (Holiday Park Germany) - Insane airtime almost full throughout. Still smooth after 23 years.
8- Untamed (Walibi Holland) - My first RMC, probably underrated given I only got 2 rides on it, it's insanely well paced and has some really strong pops of airtime.
9- Tonnerre 2 Zeus (Parc Astérix) - Rattly but really intense, best airtime and pacing of any wooden coaster that I've ridden. Also best wooden coaster trains I've been on.
10- [Defunct] Wild Train (Fantasiana) - Really sentimental about this one but it was crazy, it tried to send you into space. Even got a wheel from it 😉.
11- Silver Star (Europa Park)

Hello... Fellow European? I still rate RTH (just) above Voltron (though I go back & forth)
@Coasterrestrepeat Hi! I am indeed a European enthusiast. My main reason for putting Voltron above RTH was the headache inducing rides I got back in September. I still loved the forces and audio of the ride, but it did leave me with a headache. Voltron impressed me in October with how much smoother it was compared to earlier this year. To be honest I also can't really decide between the rides in my top 5. I ride one and say, oh that one is better than x coaster, then I ride the other and think it's the better one. (Eejanaika has been my number 1 since 2023 tho and I don't think it will get dethroned).
hey i forgot to make this comment earlier, im now 18 and have been watching you and other enthusiast channels since i was like 14. just want to pay my respect to you since you are probably my favorite channel besides coasterdash and coaster studios. your video quality, posting consistency and video topics are awesome. i love how you find new unique ideas for top 50 or other lists. please keep it up and cheers happy new year 🥂 ❤
Happy new year and thanks for the kind words!
Thanks for including my Fav B&M's from Canada's Wonderland, I'm gonna ride them all again in 2025!!
Good list Chris! I was able to get some new credits this year when I went to Six Flags Great America for the first time. What’s interesting is our # 1 and # 2 coasters are the exact same.
Why is that ironic?
@@travisvanalst4698 I guess interesting would be a better word. I find it kind of strange we have the same number 1 and 2 considering he's ridden over 600 and my count is only 224.

How tf is velocicoaster below hagrid's
@@danielsutter3051 it actually wasn’t before my recent visit. I had more fun on Hagrid’s
imo hagrids is super overrated
@Random_Eebs fair enough. Clearly, I think it’s underrated by enthusiasts. Although I’m a big Harry Potter fan, so that probably contributes.
The dive off the quarry wall is my favorite single element on any coaster I’ve ever ridden.
Great video
In the back row its brilliant
10:09 Aged like milk. Plans were just filed for HRRR’s removal. ☹️
Six Flags, why are you messing with other park’s business?
So? Kingda Ka and firehawk were already removed and they’re in the top 100 part. Also, not closing until September.
Good riddance. In the garbage where it belongs
My Top 10:
10. Icon at Blackpool Pleasure Beach
9. Flucht von Novgorod at Hansa-Park
8. Nemesis Reborn at Alton Towers
7. The Smiler at Alton Towers
6. Taron at Phantasialand
5. Der Schwur des Kärnan
4. DC Rivals HyperCoaster at Warner Bros. Movie World
3. Hyperia at Thorpe Park
2. F.L.Y. at Phantasialand
1. Colossos at Heide Park
If a park isn't represented here just assume I haven't been there.
Next time you're in Europe you gotta get Plopsaland in on the way back (20 mins from Calais 👌🏻)
Keep in mind I only have like 40 credits but my top 10 are:
1. Intimidator 305
2. Twisted Timbers
3. Pantheon
4. Alpengeist
5. Apollo's Chariot
6. Dominator
7. Griffon
8. Racer 75
9. Flight of Fear
10. Tempesto
All of my credits are from like 3 parks so just keep that in mind as well. Those parks are Kings Dominion, Busch Gardens Williamsburg, and SeaWorld San Diego if you're curious.
As a Virginia native I love this list!
@@shitpostWJ poor seaworld couldnt break the list
"and I'll see if it can both toss me out of my seat, crush me back into it, and give me a long ride full of elite forces, while I rock out to Kanye West." could be the best combination ever!!
annnnd I'll never get to ride it again of course
@@AirtimeThrillsYeah u will
Voyage is honestly running the best it’s ever been since opening right now. So much of that track is brand new and updated
After riding 117 new to me coasters this year, my top 5, 10, 15, 20, 50, and 100 have changed pretty drastically. (I had previously ridden 25 coasters across 3 parks)
As everyone is doing their top 10s, I thought I'd do my top 5 (as I only have 60 credits lol)
5. GOTG Cosmic Rewind (Epcot) - Got only 1 ride in 2022 and it was amazing. The whole experience of it is just breathtaking and is impossible to not have a massive smile on your face throughout the entire ride. Also has my favourite launch ever.
4. Hagrids Motorbike Adventure (IoA) - The best themed rollercoaster in the world. First waited over 4 hours to ride it in 2019 only 2 months after it opened and it was worth every second of waiting. 2 more rides in 2022 cemented it in my top 5.
3. Mako (Seaworld) - Airtime machine. Got my first ride and was able to marathon this in 2022. The only B&M hyper I've been on but I get why its seen as one of the best.
2. Hyperia (Thorpe Park) - Maybe the best first drop in the world. Falling 230+ feet directly downwards, 80mph, while the track turns 180 degrees beneath you, completely out of your seat the entire time is a feeling like no other. On top of that some of the best airtime and most terrifying elements I've experienced (that outerbank...). Would be my #1 if it wasn't so short.
1. Velocicoaster - The complete package. Speed, airtime, inversions, theming. My first ride (in the back row btw) when I went over the top hat had me holding on to dear life and shouting words I probably shouldn't repeat, which no coaster has ever made me do. My favourite memory of any coaster I've been on. Velocicoaster is truly the king of all coasters imo and my #1 (until I ride an RMC haha).
I love how this is Orlando centric and the UK jumps in there
@@AirtimeThrills I'm from the UK and have only ever been to Orlando for coasters so they make up the majority of my list haha! I'm hoping to either get out to some European parks or go back to Orlando with my family for Epic Universe in the future! 🫶
I found it surprising that The Beast is that high, it's clear that the night rides and retrack improves this experience. Prairie Screamer as well, E&F Miler has gone nuts with this one, but I'm baffled that E&F didn't sell more of these.
Top 25 for me as of 2024:
25) MAKO - Someone puked on me and I only got one ride so may be higher if I had better experience
24) FURY 325 - This felt like Mako but less airtime hills and more twisty turns
23) MAVERICK - I got to ride this with a stuffed animal I won
22) TWISTED COLOSSUS - This one hurt my butt, otherwise I really like getting basically two rides in one
21) X2 - I like the outside seats a lot cause it’s like I’m being abused. Very sentimental
20) THE BEAST - Basically a wooden mine train and nothing special but during the ride I saw a man piss in the woods which was cool.
19) TIME TRAVELER - My friends tried to disable the magnet so we spin out of control but it didn’t work. Still fun though.
18) DIAMONDBACk - This one also made my butt hurt but the rattle gave me a satisfying tickling euphoric feeling.
17) MAXX FORCE - When the launch went boom it was very scary and cool.
16) WILDCATS REVENGE - This one made me feel like I was going to fall out of my seat!
15) EL TORO - This was my brother’s favorite ride. RIP Charlie. We spread Charlie’s ashes under the rolling thunder hill.
14) THE VOYAGE - I like how long this was. It gave me time to reflect on my life.
13) MILLENNIUM FORCE - Mid, forceless, and overrated.
12) TOUTATIS - My only coaster I rode in France cause everything else was closed. I love the French.
11) PHANTOMS REVENGE - The second drop dropped so low, I thought I was going to die.
10) PANTHEON - This one had good twists and turns and cool elements.
9) VELOCICOASTER - Like Pantheon but this one has dinosaurs 🦕 🦖!!!!
8) ARIEFORCE ONE - I got to do this 184 times in one day!
7) IRON GWAZI - Like ArieForce One but on steroids
6) OUTLAW RUN - Like Iron Gwazi but on cocaine and I prefer cocaine more than steroids.
5) OG MEAN STREAK - This one beat me up more than my old dad.
4) STEEL VENGEANCE - I really enjoy the airtime
3) KINGDA KA - 😞
2) TOP THRILL 2 - It broke down and closed when I was on it. They had to evacuate me off the top hat. That was cool.
1) PANTHERIAN - I blacked out after the first turn and died. They revived me in the hospital and it will always be my favorite
@@JohnSmith-mk5xm mean streak what the heck
Completely agree with raging bull and magnum
I live in Orlando and have never really gotten a great ride on Rip Ride Rocket...until this past Saturday. 3rd row on the right side and I got crazy good airtime. Not sure if I will get to experience it again, but I now get where you're coming from
3rd row huh...I rode it a bunch in 2012 and loved it but I dont remember details. 2021 I just got 1 ride in the back and that seemed like the magic row
13:02 “this Intamin swing launch coaster does so much” as it absolutely crawls over the top hat lmao
I got my first ride on Phoenix this year, back row, and it was wild! I was not expecting to be out of my seat for over half the ride
Everything just hit perfect this year
@@AirtimeThrills Knoebels came out a big winner this year. Phoenix jumped up the list, and Flying Turns got _on_ the list. There are a lot of parks in the current Six Flags chain that don't have 2+ coasters in your top 100!
Wow, The Beast did really move way up. But, Sophie still thinks you are wrong on it’s ranking 😊
Funny enough I put it super high based on my day ride. She never got that day ride
Prairie GOATer is finally getting the recognition it deserves. Also, thank you Airtime Clause for providing us with an amazing Christmas present
Good to see SV at #1. Recency bias usually takes over in all hobbies. But SV deserves its flowers still.
They just made SteVe too good
The reason woodies are well represented is because all kiddie coasters are steel
fair point
Six flags removed single rider lines and now I'm sad
figures
Used to be really nice for me riding Goliath at Six Flags.
great america
Love this. Thanks for sharing. Would love to see your top 100 - top parks. Like what parks have 2 or more.
Great list! Always some surprises as to be expected... My list has no shortage of them either.
I rode 40 new coasters this year, and 16 of them made it to the top 50. I did not get any rerides, so there were no jumps/falls. Out of 163 credits, here is my top 50:

Instead of giving my opinions for each, feel free to ask me questions instead! I will say, Steel Vengeance did not blow me away when I first rode it like some rides, but now I see why people say it's number 1. It's hard to beat just how long and complete of a ride it is. It always feels like it's worth the wait, which is hard to say about many coasters.
Have u ridden canibal
We got the same top 3 so thats something
@@AirtimeThrills That's cool! They're definitely really good
@@Karj30Rl I haven't. I'd love to though, it looks great

I get so excited when I see you post, you’re one of my favorite content creators on here 🙂↔️ now let me watch the video and judge your ranking lmao
Happy judging
I love your list, especially your top 2. Of the slightly over 160 coasters I've ridden, my 2nd favourite is Fury 325 and my favourite is Steel Vengeance, just like you're top two. But I only got 10 rides on SteVe, in late May 2018 whereas I got 97 on Fury 325, in three days and 4 hours of a 4th day in mid April 2023 and it's the coaster I've ridden the most after Coaster at Playland in Vancouver in 2017 alone.
If you marathon Lightning Run, you might never get bored. You also might never walk again
I'm ok with that
I'm excited i should be going on your #2,#3,#4 for the first time this summer. Although I heard from a certain person that Fury 325 is just a basic coaster you find at any park.
My current top 10:
1. Steel Vengeance
2. Maverick
3. Beast
4. Mystic Timbers
5. Pantheon
6. Wildcat's Revenge
7. El Toro
8. Twisted Timbers
9. Kingda Ka
10. Diamondback
lmao @ the basic coaster comment. that will go down in ATT history
I 100% agree with the Rip Ride Rocket take, only problem is when I went a week ago I couldn’t choose Kanye to listen to🤣
I heard they took Kanye off. And now the whole ride's gonna get torn down so....oh well
Didn’t expect to see Beast on here
10:23 “if it sticks around, ill see if i can get back on it”
WOMP WOMP WOMP WHOOOOOMP
that aged beautifully
@ Hopefully i can squeeze in a last ride on short notice on this and muppetvision
It’ll be open until September.
I am so hyped as to how many from Japan will enter this 1-50 window next year! Rooting for your best days here!
I am confident Eejanaika and Hakugei will be in my top 50. maybe Takabisha, Fujiyama maybe a long shot, maybe Flying Dinosaur, Thunder Dolphin, heck maybe even SD2k, a lot of contenders
@@AirtimeThrillswhat parks are you visiting
@@Str8trackhaters all the major ones plus some of the smaller ones but not all of them. Disney universal tobu fuji nagashima tokyo dome yomiuriland and so on
@@AirtimeThrills It's crazy, the possibilities. Do try out Pyrenees at Shima Spain Mura in Ise peninsula. By far the best B&M invert.
One thing about SD2k. Most people rate it lower because of the giga expectations. If you think it's a giant version of a hyper, I am sure you'll be floored! Speed and airtime bonanza!

Got myself to Knoebels this year! Phoenix was wild. Best airtime i've gotten. This year, I have a season pass for all six flags/cedar point parks, including kings dominion. Can't wait for an epic 2025!
132 credits:
1. Steel Vengeance
2. The Voyage
3. Maverick
4. Arie Force One
5. Lightning Rod
6. Storm Chaser
7. Mystic Timbers
8. Goliath (SFGA)
9. Orion
10. Millennium Force
Love to see The Beast rise so much, one of my favorites at my home park. Here's my top 10:
1. Velocicoaster- a phenominal set of elements sequenced in the perfect order with excellent theming.
2. The Voyage- My rides in the back row during the summer were simply incredible, haven't experienced this trimless, would probably be my new #1.
3. Iron Gwazi- A wonderfully brutal RMC. Edges out Aire due to delivering an excellent night ride
4. Aireforce One- The most well-rounded RMC in my opinion, delivering much more positives than the others.
5. Fury325- The insane low to the ground elements are as good as they sound.
6. Orion- The strangest choice in my top 10, Orion retains its speed despite its large elements, making each of them extremely powerful especially during the right weather conditions. Also provides a great night ride due to its lighting package. Still worse than Fury overall though due to its shorter length. Rainy night rides on this thing are insane.
7. Steel Vengeance- Gets points for being the longest RMC and providing great airtime and inversions, though it ranks lower than gwazi and aire due to weaker pacing and a less well rounded layout.
8. Intimidator 305- Insane intensity complimented by amazing airtime moments. Is ranked lower than other gigas due to worse restraints
9. Top Thrill 2- Brutal intensity, launches, and airtime off the top hat. I hope others get to ride it soon.
10. Levithan- A great giga with excellent speed and elements, though it lacks an X factor that other gigas have. No disrespect towards it though, it's still a top tier ride.
Honestly next year, I’ll love to see how tall your top 50 coasters are, number of 50 ft, 100 ft, 200 ft etc
That'd be a fun metric to add
I love how airtime thrills is real with his rankings and doesn’t change them based on how people may view them.
ToastyThemeParks not many roller coaster lovers would make a list that only the gp wont
@ fair point
Someone may have already commented this, but I noticed in your list at the beginning you have Sweden at two coasters in your top 50 but you list three from Sweden (Balder, Helix, Wildfire) during the video.
You're right, I don't know exactly what happened there
No way are any of those rides better than Iron Gwazi. That thing always leaves you wanting MORE.
Finally someone who appreciates nitro for how good it actually is
I know lol
Kingdragon its my 3rd best B @ M hyper
Maverick at 45?? And below Millennium Force? That’s a hot take..
It's a consistent take coming from him. I wanna say his main issue with Maverick is the restraints.
@@MarsJenkar if he thinks they're bad now, the original ones were 3 times as bad.
Millennium Force is considered by many the best coaster at Cedar Point, so not a hot take. Not like he put Rougarou over Maverick
@@JohnSmith-mk5xm Steel Vengeance is the best coaster at CP. Maverick is my favorite though. Bur you're not wrong. I see so many people telling their friends/kids that Millie is their favorite coaster. And they can be wrong. I won't hold it against them.
@There’s no right and wrong in this subjective hobby. If you prefer sense of speed and setting you’ll like Millennium Force over Steve. Are you a new coaster enthusiast? Between the age of 12-20? If so you may be influenced by enthusiasts who tell you Steve is the best. That’s not how it works. People have different opinions.
Missed this😊

“I could ride Magnum all day. It’s not rough, it’s just jerky.” 😂😂😂
He speaking facts
Zero lies detected.
jerky = large individual jolts at some track transitions
rough = constant shaking so you can’t even focus on the layout
He's right
Guys, I’m not disagreeing with him. It’s an innuendo.
I might be remembering it wrong, but I’ve only ridden diamondback one day and I got 3 rides on it 2 at night and 1 mid-day and it was not even the slightest bit rough.
This year? It was noticeably worse for me
@ I got my rides on it fall of last year
After finally making some big coaster trips this year, and getting over a 100 new credits, I can proudly say that this is my Top 10 Roller Coasters, out of 164:
1. Iron Gwazi
2. Velocicoaster
3. Maverick
4. Steel Vengeance
5. ArieForce One
6. Goliath (Over Georgia)
7. Texas Stingray
8. Ghostrider
9. Mystic Timbers
10. Mako
the fact an e&f miler can be in the top 50 is actually just crazy
The video we don’t deserve but the video we needed
Also, I wish there were enough hot days to ride every coaster on the list
We need more hot days in this crazy world
Cool list! When are you coming to Ireland to ride our amazing STC, Na Fianna Force?? 🎉🎉
I have a feeling Steve will be dethroned after Chris rides Hakugei. It's absolutely mental.
I hope youre right
Out of 93 (115 if you count the family coasters I skipped):
1. I305/Pantherian
2. Steel Vengeance
3. Millennium Force
4. Twisted Timbers
5. Twisted Colossus
6. Magnum XL 200
7. Maverick
8. Ghostrider
9. Stormrunner
10. Joker (SFDK)
11. Railblazer
12. Candymonium
13. Skyrush
14. Xcelerator
15. X2
I feel Ride To Happiness might dethrone Steel Vengeance. I rode both in the same year and Ride To Happiness easily was better.
OtterTrottes ride to happyness is very over rated
Who wants to tell him Kanye was taken out of Rip Ride Rockit?
Who also wants to tell him the rides closing permanently.
Not a fan of I-305? (Or Pantherian I guess..) No matter how many parks I go to I'll never find anything that makes me feel the way that first drop into the notorious gray out turn does.
I dont love it but its still solidly a top 100 coaster (on Mondays video)
Yeeeesssss! One of my top 3 most anticipated top 25-50’s😅
Wildcat’s revenge is my number one because of that first half, and that second half hits me hard with the corkscrews.
There's some real bucket list coasters on here for me. RMC keeps going from strength to strength. Brit here but am off to Poland for my 2nd RMC (1st was Untamed at Walibi Holland) in April. Bit sad not seeing more Europe on your list 😔 Have you ridden RTH & Voltron yet?
My top 10 currently:
1. RTH
2. Voltron
3. Untamed
4. Wodan
5. F.L.Y
6. Taron
7. Joris En De Draak
8. Baron 1898 (theming makes it)
9. Silver Star
10. Nemesis Reborn
Sadly I was without a coaster ride in 2024 but here is my top 24 (out of admittedly a very small pool of options that I've ridden). Hopefully next year will be the year I finally make it over to San Anton to SF Fiesta Texas.
1 Velocicoaster tied with Iron Gwazi
1 Iron Gwazi tied with Velocicoaster
2 Cosmic Rewind best dark ride coaster
3 Pipeline the new car design is legit
4 Hagrids two coasters in one with the different riding positions
5 Manta best flying
6 Alpengeist best suspension
7 Superman Ultimate Flight SFOG bumped down by Manta
8 Mako best hyper
9 The Mummy bumped down the rankings by Cosmic Rewind but still a great coaster
10 Griffon best dive
11 Kumba still great after 30 years
12 The Incredible Hulk how is Kumba still as smooth as the Hulk when Hulk has been retracked?
13 Rip Ride Rocket not as rough as people claim it is.
14 Cheetah Hunt a solid coaster just too many good ones above it
15 Montu overrated suspension, I have no idea why so many rate this higher than Alpengeist...
16 The Big Bad Wolf, god how I miss this coaster
17 Gringots great theming saves it from being lower
18 Goliath SFOG hypers aren't my thing
19 Apollo's Chariot hypers really really aren't my thing
20 The Georgia Scorcher comfortable and good for a stand up, hope they give it pipeline trains some day
21 Batman the Ride SFOG forces are a bit too much for me and the first drop is pittifully short
22 Loch Ness Monster sorry Nessy but the competition has gotten really fierce
23 Verbolten not as good as the Wolf was
I'm going to Universal in a little over a month and I am super stoked to ride VelociCoaster!!!
I don’t think that wicked cyclone is 4th best, but I do agree it’s an elite ride and thankful to have this at a mid size Six flags park in New England at my home park
Perfect list
3:13 gotta love that Morgan engineering
Maverick is criminally underrated in this video…
As usual
NolanCron no its not
@@AirtimeThrillsyou really like rip ride rocket over maverick?
It is funny how one ride (or one park day) can affect perception. I was so underwhelmed by twisted timbers , I don't know if it would be in my top thirty. I always laugh when I see your ranking of Rip Ride Rocket , I don't hate it like some people do though. And Magnum is my second favorite at Cedar Point, I love to see it ranked so high.
HRRR and Magnum definitely draw "mixed" reactions to the extreme
Heatherofscots the rroller coaster i find over rated is Maverick it may not even be in my top 100 but in my top 110
@@timothywait9457 I really thought Maverick could be one of my favorite coasters before I rode it. I think it is very overrated. Maybe I hyped it up too much in my mind. It was also painful.
You should do top 10 launched coasters as your next video
I know I’m going to see Ripride Rockit and I’m still unprepared
I really hope that Great Adventure smooths out El Toro I really want to marathon it agian!
Same. Get some rmc ibox on that thing
@@AirtimeThrills I know lol
MrSingleRider and have a slow lift more intresting
@@timothywait9457 Hell no
I was getting nervous that my favorite ride X-2 wasn’t going to make the list. I was really surprised it was so high up your list though. It has been receiving a lot of hate over the years.
I rode it this year and thought it was as nuts as ever
I (mostly) only ride themed coasters & am new to the coaster thoosie community, so my ride list is pretty weak, but Ill never pass up an opportunity for a ranking!!! Fantastic video as always Airtime 👏👏
1) JW: VelociCoaster
2) Hagrid's MCM Adventure
3) GOTG: Cosmic Rewind
4) GhostRider
5) Expedition Everest
6) The Joker (6FDK)
7) Revenge of the Mummy (UOR)
8) Tron Lightcycle Run (MK)
9) Incredible Hulk
10) Space Mountain (DL)
You gotta ride the Mexican Superman. Easily Morgan’s best, by a very very wide margin.
Yeah true, I wasnt thinking of that when I declared Steel Eel their best ground up coaster
Beast over maverick, FINALLY LOVE YOU ❤❤❤
El toro was in Sonic 3. Automatically in the number 1 spot
