favorite removed coaster

Excalibur at SFAW. They ripped down that coaster for an SLC!! Can you beleive it?

Twister at the old Elitch Gardens.

As heard on Amtrak 44: "If you look out the left side of the Train you will see the coasters of Cedar Point."

Without a doubdt, Twister at Old Elitch Gardens. One of the first coasters I ever rode and one of the best. Honorable mention is The Wildcat at Old Elitch Gardens, it packed a pretty good punch for a small woodie. Elitch's should have never have torn these down or they should have moved them to the new park. VERY poor decision.

Lightnin' Loops would be my choice. By the time I started riding coasters, only one loop was in operation. Since then, I've ridden both loops separately at SFA and Frontier City, but I wish I had the chance to experience them when they were interlocked.

Black Widow at SFNE. It was an Arrow Shuttle Loop. I loved getting thrust forward and backward. The worst part is they didnt have to remove it. They could have put Flashback near The Mind Eraser. Well, hopefully they will make it up by building a V2 clone.

I can't remember riding any coaster that has since been torn down or moved (no, I haven't been riding for very long). And I obviously haven't ridden it and it really doesn't fit the "criteria," but for the record I'll go with the Crystal Beach Cyclone.

Most definately the Wabash Cannonball (my first looping coaster) and Chaos for it's extremly unique design.

You can ride the same prototype Vekoma coaster as Chaos at that park in Belgium. It's called the Revolution and is exactly the same as Chaos, only they used a classical music soundtrack instead of a techno soundtrack like Chaos.

These coasters are both still tied as having the longest coaster trains in the world and one of the most revolutionary designs of any coaster in the world!

You can get more info on Chaos at http://www.access2control.com a super site devoted soley to Chaos! Very cool!

Flying over metal is a beautiful thing!

Rolling Thunder at SFGAm. It might not have been too good a coaster, but it still was fun.
