Most annoying lift hill

I love SoB but it's lift is very noisy.

Personally, I like the rush you get going up MF's lift. It's like no other. You know from the start this ride is built for speed, speed and more speed.

I don't like the lift hills on stand ups (mantis and shockwave are the only two I have been on). the sensation of standing leaning back like that is very unnerving to me.

I like a loud chain and I loved MFs lift - fast, smooth, quiet. the roar of the wind in your ears while going down the first hill is louder then the lift is.

I find it to be relaxing. If it were long enough, I probably could take a nap! (unless I have my seat positioned wrong, which I HATE!)

The most annoying lift hill is Shockwave's (SFGAm.) It brings back bad memories of hitting my head on the OTSR from the ride right before the one I'm on!

V2, Deja Vu... how can it be better? Add Viper! Oh, wait. It's already there!

Out of the Arrow's I think Canyon Blaster at the Adventuredome is the worst because not only is it loud but it's sound is amplified becasue the ride is indoors. You can actually hear the lift out side the park entrance in the Promenade. It's really bad on busy days when we have two train op and there's a new train on the lift every 55 seconds.

For those who hate Iron Dragon's lift, the reason the first lift is slow is because of timing. The car is dispatched before the train in front of it hits the second lift. The slowing down is needed.

For those who hate Mil. Force's lift, if it didn't go that fast, then your wait to ride would be longer. Since there is no block brake, only one train can be on the course at a time. If the lift were any slower, then waits would be longer since the capacity would be lower than it is now (around 1600 per hour). Otherwise, a mid-course break would be needed, and I definitely don't want that.

Know the reason for why things are before criticizing them. Parks do things that that we may not fully understand, but are done for a reason.

I don`t really like SOB`s beacuse it is so loud and you have to shout to talk to the person next to you!

I have two. The Carolina Cyclone (1980 Arrow) is so exremely loud. When it departs the station and turns left to engage the chain, it's right behind the queue line. It's so loud it gives me a headache before I even get on the ride. Second would have to go the Ninja (19?? Vekoma) at SFoG. Aside from being the roughest ride on the planet, it takes forever to get to the top. The lift is so slow. When you finally reach the top, you kinda creep over the hill. It took forever to get up there last year.

What is life without ups and downs!?!?

I don't really care about noise that much. At SFoG Mindbender slowed to a crawl and creeped over the top of the hill. I understood why they wanted the speed as low as possible when I went over that first drop and into the loop. G forces! Ah, the G forces. Beautiful...

Well, I Think That The Loudest And Most Annoying Lift I Have Ever Been On Was Revolution At SFMM...TOGO_Fan

The most annoying lift hill for me is on Twister II at SFEG it speeds up and then slows down up the whole hill. It makes for a very jerky beginning.
