Timberwolf is fun because the ride is long.

Living in VA, Ive been to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg many times. Apollos Chariot has to be my favorite. It's so smooth and you spend a lot of time in zero G or out of your seat 'flying'. The Griffon is a close second. That 90 degree vertical drop of about 200ft is pretty awesome.
Growing up in KC, my first ever roller coaster was Zambezi at night. That was terrifying at 9 years old. I eventually got the courage to do the Orient Express and enjoyed it. I was probably one of a few thousand to actually ride the stand up 'only in the nation' EXT one time. The wait was absurd, but at least I could say I did it. The Timber Wolf was new just before I left KC. Got to go to Magic Mountain in CA back in the late 80's...when the Ninja was brand new, but I have to say my favorite there was probably the Colossus. Classic old woody. Kings Dominion in VA has some pretty good coasters, and my favorite was The Volcano, launching coaster. At Hollywood Studios, really enjoyed Aerosmith and Tower of Terror (although the tower was not really a coaster) I'd really like to go to Cedar Point some day...ride Top Thrill and Millenium Force.

I mentioned Apollo's Chariot earlier but didn't mention why I liked it. You hit the nail on the head. It is a super smooth ride. |

Millenium Force is my hands down favorite but I can't wait to ride this bad boy in July. Both at Cedar Point.

Oh ok, I was trying to figure out why the video went in reverse towards the end.

The Hulk and Aerosmith are similar (sling-shot starts)....and they're great fun.
Orient Express was great My favorite ride of all-time is Spiderman at Universal Florida. As much of a coaster as Tower of Terror, I guess.....but I remember being blown away by it. Coolest experience at a theme park ever.
