In 2018 Coaster365 started solely as a Twitter account that provided a daily look at a different roller coaster from around the world - statistics, history, and any other fun facts! 5 years later, that same idea has finally come to RU-vid! Join me, Bryant, as I profile AND review a different roller coaster, in person, from parks in the US (and around the world!) every single day for an entire year! Whether you know absolutely nothing about roller coasters, or are a diehard enthusiast, my goal is to provide both an educational and entertaining experience, with hopefully a few laughs along the way as well. Life is about having fun and not taking things too seriously. If those are words you like to live by, along with a taste for a bit of adrenaline, this is the channel for you! Enjoy :)
You're gonna love it man. Eejanaika has gotta be the most insane thing out there. I don't think anything could ever top it for me. I couldn't stop riding it. Hakugei is also really great and easily in my top 5. Have a great time 🙂
hope you have good luck with the fuji q ops, the rides there are great but the ops are terrible lol. mt. fuji looked great and the skies were clear when I went and I wish you luck with that. A few tips, takabisha is pretty polarizing with some thinking its rough, but I personally think its really smooth. Takabisha usually gets shorter lines than the rest of the thrill coasters because ops are a bit better there. Fujiyama is the headlining attraction there so expect that to have an hour line probably. The ending on fujiyama is brutal but its so bad I like it. eejanaika has a very cramped queue and operations are terrible, but the ride itself is overall my #1 and was almost too much for me with my 1 ride on the 2nd row 😆. Zokkon is kinda what I think hagrids will be like but less themed, lines usually pretty long for that ride. Nagashima spa land I think is better than Fuji Q. Hakugei is awesome, ultra twister is very weird and really cool. Steel dragon gets the longest lines by far; I think it's worse than the rest of the gigas, but with that being said it's still in my top 10 overall coasters. The quantity and intensity of forces is really fun. hakugei is definitely worse than eejanaika. Hakugei is awesome and in my top 10 coasters but it doesn't have anything unique about it. Doesn't really need anything like that because it's still awesome. Hope to see part 3 and the trip in general!
My Neighbours - no enthusiasts - are in Japan right now, and the pictures they post on instagram are awesome. I - well you can't say hope - know you'll have a really good time. Get involved into the Culture as good as you can!
Wicked cyclone is definitely my all time favorite. I have this hilarious picture from the ride where I have my poker face on the train. The ride is also my favorite because of the wait times. If it is a summer Tuesday or Wednesday, there is little to no wait. It gives me the opportunity to get on the ride a few times in a row. Overall, best rollercoaster I’ve been on and probably the bests for a while to come.
I got back a couple weeks ago from Japan, you will love it! Amazing parks and roller coasters. Eejanaika and Hakugei are ranked #1 and 3 for me, out of 898. Best 1-2 coaster punch out of any country in my opinion!
Nice! I will for sure visit both Fuji-Q and Nagashima Spa Land. I booked my ticket yesterday. I will transfer in Beijing so I hope to visit Universal Studios and Happy Valley Beijing before arriving in Japan. 😊
Ok, I am caught up. Amazing. I had gone to Japan for 4 days, without much planning and it was for a video game event. But I definitely was a tourist. The culture there was phenomenal. People are so willing to help if your lost. Enjoy the rides!
So cool, I'm glad for you and Megan man! My best friend is leaving for Nagoya to go study Japanese for a year in about six weeks, and me and a few friends will go visit him in March 2025! Already buzzing for that trip, and we'll hopefully go to one or two parks as well :D
love it. i am headed there next year in May, heading to Fuji Q (1 day) Nagashima Spa Land (1 day) and Tokyo Dome City (1 day). if you could post any information on how to acquire fast passes i'd love to hear about it! my trip to Japan is not an exclusive coaster trip hence the 1 day at each park on a 15 day trip. have a blast man!!!
Woot! I went earlier this year and the only theme park I visited was Tokyo DisneySea--couldn't really make the case to drag my family to any other ones. DisneySea is spectacular though, an absolute bucket-list experience. But not for coasters. but if we'd had more time, I would have at least hit Fuji-Q Highland. I think Fujiyama was/is down for refurbishment though, aside from the trouble with Do-dodonpa of course. It took us 2-3 days to really get over the jet lag to the point that we were super functional, and by then most of our time in Tokyo was over. So I was kind of speedrunning cultural interest at that point before hopping the Shinkansen to Osaka. Which is just a wonderful town, I think my favorite of the two. Enjoy!
Although I haven't been to Japan (yet), I've gone east to the Maldives and West to Sydney. Going to Europe is rough on my body-clock, but once I go more than 12 hours from my home time zone, it's like my body-clock gives up and says "Whatever, dude. Is the sun up? OK, I'm awake." Hope it works out for you.
I rode this the year it opened and I’ve been doubting my memories of the exit being like a funhouse. Thank you for validating my memories of it! I knew it!
Thunder Dolphin(s). If you're saying Hollywood Dream: The Ride could be the 2nd best B&M in the world then thats awesome. Not sure if you are referring to Flying Dinosaur or Pyrenees or Montu-->Pyrenees
2:26 - SF-LaRonde is on Ill St.Hellene, in the St.Laurance River, at sea level. Arguably a lower elevation than the piers at an ocean beach. This roller coaster is in a pond within the island. Is the the lowest elevation of the world for a roller coaster?
AND Taiwan right?! Are you going for Taiwan too??? Or just Japan? (😭 but also Japan is super cool) I lived there in Taiwan for a few years, been to all the parks. Absolute favorite place on Earth, safest place ever and most amazing people and food.
@@coaster365 next time you’ll have to make the stop! Japan definitely has the better coaster and park selection though - but is just a smidge lower on my overall love list of countries (no way I’m biased I would never do that)
Was at LC yesterday (30 Aug 2024) for the 1st time as a patron since 1997. I gotta say the park at times looked dated & every bit her age (motorcycles in kids world could use pressure wash) Twisters safety bar bit my foot on release, Zoomerrand was down, but WOW! Wildcat was so much more fun than I remember. Fast & aggressive, you forget she's almost 100, doesn't feel it. Reminded me of old Cyclone at Riverside (now 6 flags) before the remodel. Boulder dash was running. Went at 8 pm as drone show was starting, and OMG! The drop was great being able to see the park lit up & the trip through the trees in darkness was light space mountain but with the clank & growl of the wooden beast she has the heart of. Nighttime made its perception so much faster than the 65-70mph. Rapids was closed also. Sawmill was great, I still remember when it was where BD is now behind the ballroom but the wait time signs are misleading. Log flume had 10 min on sign, was 40, BD had 45 min, was 30 (not a bad thing) but wildcat has no sign AND was an hour wait. Cool channel from a fellow CT resident. 🇺🇲🥩🥓🥃🍻🇺🇲
Appreciate the channel love!! This sounds about right for Compounce lol, absolute disaster in areas, but can still draw you in with top tier experiences
I just got back to ohio from florida...rode iron gwazi...so good...and cheetah hunt...so I'm gonna reveal my top 5 5..gatekeeper 4..fury 325 3..big bear mountain 2..cheetah hunt 1..iron gwazi.
Congrats! If all goes correctly Hakugei will be the only non RMC raptor I will be missing as of the end of next summer or year. Only missing it, Medusa, and wildfire. I think Hakugei and Eejanaika are easily two of my top 5 bucket list coasters. Plus the traditions and customs in Japan it would just be a real interesting foreign country to visit. Although I hear they are dodgers fans and not Red Sox fans. Congrats again on the trip.
I should dust off my Daisuke Matsuaka shirt from back in the day 😂. But thank you man! Cannot express my excitement for those two coasters enough, so intrigued to see where they’ll place
Flying Dinosaur second best B&M !?!? I highly doubt it. Maybe best flyer, but it can't beat the top dogs of B&M. But I'm so glad for you, it will be life changing and amazing content for the channel
@@coaster365 I haven't booked the ticket yet but I have vacation from the 15th and I plan to see Iron Maiden in Yokohama on my birthday the 29th of September. When are you leaving?
