What is with you people and Alpengeist? I thought that it was an amazing coaster. Way better than Raptor and Deuling Dragons.

It's not that I disliked it, it's on my top ten list (right now), but I was expecting more, and it had alot of imperfections that aren't found on alot of B&M's. I think it was mostly my fault that the ride left such a negative impact on me because I rode it expecting Montu to be blown out of the water, but Montu conquers all.

Alpengeist probably is better than Raptor and DD (I've ridden those two), Danny, but you're forgetting the best looping coaster on the planet....
Montu!

Yeah, those banked turns look insane. It also has a nice, compact layout.

^ Yea, from experience, Canyon Blaster and Goliath Jr. are the clear-winners. Well worth a trip from Ohio.
My current affection:
Ha - I never actually posted in this thread. Weird, I'll go ahead and add to it.
Wood
Hades, by far #1
Balder
WG Cyclone
Avalanche
Tremors
Withheld El Toro because its not operating yet, and Voyage because I KNOW I will be there in less than a week.
Steel
Aforementioned Olympia Looping
Lisebergbanan
Expedition GeForce
The Dutch Goliath
Bullet
Bullet will easily be replaced with Black Mamba once it opens, and honorable mention to Nemesis.

Google Search TPC BEFORE you create that new thread
