12d ago37:26

37:26

A few months after my summer road trip, I continued my quest to ride new roller coasters by flying northwest to visit three parks for the first time. Stop number one was Lagoon in Farmington, UT. It's a family-owned amusement park known for doing things differently. They've built their last three roller coasters completely in-house, and they're unl…

The final stop on my summer road trip was Holiday World in Santa Claus, IN. This family-owned park is home to quite possibly the greatest collection of wooden roller coasters on the planet, the Raven, the Legend, and the Voyage. They're also home to Thunderbird, the world's first B&M launched wing coaster, and the new for 2024 Good Gravy! Vekoma Fa…

Kings Island was a perfect stopping point on my drive from Cedar Point to Kentucky Kingdom and I spent an afternoon enjoying one of my all-time favorite amusement parks.

The southbound run on my summer road trip began with two full days at Cedar Point, home to many of the greatest thrill rides ever, and that's even with their new for 2024 Top Thrill 2 being closed!

The halfway point on my two-week summer road trip was Six Flags Great America. One of the biggest legacy parks in the Six Flags chain, Great America boasts 15 total roller coasters.

The second stop on my SoCal trip was Knott's Berry Farm. I'd briefly visited this park back in 2006 when I was in town for a wedding, and I wanted to get a better feel for it.

My fourth stop on my summer road trip was my former home park, Six Flags New England. I grew up visiting this place, and when Riverside Park became a Six Flags in 2000, my first rides on the brand-new Superman: Ride of Steel catapulted my teenage coaster enthusiasm into the stratosphere. This would be my first time returning to the park since 2005,…

31:42

My third stop on my summer road trip was Six Flags Great Adventure. I last visited in 2014 and loved the El Toro Intamin pre-fab wood coaster. Unfortunately, Kingda Ka, the world's tallest roller coaster was closed that day, and I badly wanted to ride one of these Intamin hydraulic-launched stratacoasters. The park has since added the Jersey Devil …

It's no secret that Florida is home to some of the world's best theme parks, so there's always a new roller coaster to look forward to. The most recent to open was Pipeline: The Surf Coaster at SeaWorld Orlando, a re-imagined stand-up from B&M. While this new attraction was far from my most anticipated for 2023, I was curious to try it out. Meanwhi…

My second stop on my week-long road trip was Cedar Point, America's Roller Coast, and what I call the coaster enthusiast's Holy Grail.
