Small Coasters That Pack The Biggest Punch?

Cornball Express! That ride is so small, yet it is awesome. Tons of air. I just rode it yesterday. It is right up there with my favorite woodies.

Bull rides:62
Batman rides:40

I dont'know if this would be considered small (here in the Pacific Northwest we dont, have much to compare to....yet)but the Coaster at the PNE/Playland is full of airtime ,especially in the last car of the train,and the way it slams you into the side of the seat just as the train goes down a drop on the fourth turnaround is unforgetable!

I guess I would also have to say the Coaster Thrill Ride at the Puyallup fairgrounds in Wash. state.  Amazing air in the front, and a potent head-chopper finish.

Is Talon considered small?  Thunderhawk also packs a lot, especially on the turn arounds-if there were no restraints, you'd be thrown out.

B&M of New Jersey=best baked beans
B&M of Switzerland=best rollercoasters

Yankee Cannonball!!!

1. S:RoS 2. Yankee Cannonball 3. Riverside Cyclone 4. Canobie Corkscrew 5. Thunderbolt 6. Galaxy 7. Mind Eraser 8. Dragon coaster 9. poison ivy's tangled

Would Serrial Thriller at Six Flags Worlds Of Adventure also be consider small? The first time I rode it I thought it realy packed a punch!

Iron Wolf at SFGAm.  I didn't expect this thing could be so wicked.  Definately an awesome ride that no one seems to ever talk about.

I second that!

I am all for the big dipper at sfwoa and the double loop its small and short but a classic coaster and is always cool to ride it

Sea Dragon at Wyandot Lake, "a Six Flags property"! :-)

(someone's gotta stick up for them every now and then!)

Ohio...so many coasters...
...so little summertime.

How about The Tornado at Strickers Grove

Cornball is good, but if your going with a small coaster that packs a punch at Indiana Beach ya gotta go with the Tig'rr Coaster. Tight banking and no seat belt. Love it!

I definitely have to go with Cyclops, that thing is tiny but it packs the most extreme air I have ever experienced on a coaster.  Little Pegasus at Big Chiefs packs a punch too for a family coaster, big air on the first drop and the awesomest most giggle inducing laterals I have ever experienced.  Steel wise gotta go with Wildcat at CP, what an awesome fun little ride.

Does CCI know how to make a bad coaster?

I'm going to have to say Racer (especially backwards!) at PKI. In my opinion, for as small of a coaster as it is, it packs quite a punch. If you wanna quibble and say that that's not small enough, I'd have to say Woodstock Express at CP. It really suprised me!

So what is better? SFMM or CP? I don't care! They both have 29 coasters between them that they build so we can have a good time!

Cornball Express @ Indiana Beach.  I was really surprised by this coaster. Also Batman the ride of course.

I'd say Superman: Ultimate Escape

My first idea was Wildcat at CedarPoint.

Rides like Serial Thriller, Talon, and S:UE look like good powerful rides, and they are.

BUT Wilcat looks like a stupid little mobile coaster and provides a (unexpected) GREAT ride full of MANY forces.
