A coaster that has a lot of airtime

A good airtime coaster is one with lost of airtime but it is also not too rough on your thighs.

If you lost the airtime, wouldn't that not be an airtime coaster then? Sorry, couldn't resist.

Start will a big lift hill. Then add small hills after that.

On steel coasters it has to be Magnum XL200 or Apollo's Chariot.

First, you need a big hill that you are dragged up by a chain. Then, you are dropped over smaller bumps, until you reach the station.

Relatively tall coaster with many hills, basically a hyper coaster. It is also a bonus feature if it is a smooth coaster such as a B&M.

BGW and PKD rock!

The best airtime coasters tend to not have huge statistics, like huge speed, tall drops etc...

ravenguy98: now coasterbuzz's favorite troll!

Wood: Shivering Timbers
Steel: NITRO, Magnum, Apollos Chariot from What I've heard, etc.

Let the bears pay the Bear Tax, I pay the Homer Tax.

ravenguy98 is right about not all good airtime coasters having hugh drops or high speeds. in the last 12 days i've been to 7 parks. i rode millenium, magnum, hypersonic, x-flight, shivering timbers, son of beast, beast, rampage and mega zeph. millenium is my favorite coaster and does have good airtime but of all the rest, the 2 coasters without huge statistics, mega zeph at jazzland and rampage at visionland had better airtime. you should try them out!!!

It's gotta be coasters with tons of floater air. Ejector air is good but floater air is better IMO.

I tried to sign my name here but the ink didn't stay on the screen.

Shivering Timbers if you want what makes a good airtime coaster! Is that a little incoherent or is it just me?

I think people get different reactions to different rides. My wife's butt literally leaves the seat at least one good time per ride on just about anything, I get so jealous. But on a ride like Magnum, I just didn't feel it until the train turned directions, then it was to try to rip my head off every second and a half, our on-ride photo is unreal! I don't even look half in the car. MF, I felt that, and you do float on Apollo's, but no other ride catapaults me like the Georgia Cyclone. Float and drag, float and drag, that's what I like. It's the one that's done it for me so far other than TA2K, you go with no air on that ride and you didn't get on!

Again, RCTitan. Please try to limit your signature to three lines or less.
