Are Intamin's coasters smooth?

I am just wondering becouse I am alittle worried about Millennium Force being a "thrasher".

Goto the sister site guidetothepoint.com there is a topic in there about Intamin smoothness (I think) From what I remember they are smooth.

Closing Time: 5:30
CP Arrival Time: 5:50

Whose Line is it Anyway?

You can also find some night POV from Superman:RoS at Darien Lake on one of the MF pages in the rides section. It is an Intamin coaster.

Anyway, I suspect MF will be as smooth as a baby's behind with talc powder.

Superman is smooth but not nearly as smooth as Goliath, you fell like you are riding on air in Goliaht, as you still feel the wheels spinning on superman, but with out any thrashing like on an Arrow

Older Intamin coasters are rough-

Flashback SFMM
Batman The Escape SFAW
Some 1st gen. freefalls

The newer Intamin coasters are smooth as glass-

The Force
S:ROS'S
2nd & 3rd Generation Freefalls

There are two old Intamin coasters that are very smooth. The Mindbender at SFOG and the Shockwave at SFOT.

Millenium Force was very smooth. You could compare the smoothness to a B&M ride. Now a thrasher would be the Arrow built Shockwave at SFGA and a slight thrash on the bunny hops of Magnum. But they hurt oh so good!

That's funny I thought SFoG's Mindbender was a Swarzkopf. Hmm maybe that's when the two were combined? I've always heard credit given to the master.

*how do they get oceans into conch(sp?) shells?*
