In among all those B&M inverted coasters, you missed a really beloved one: Nemesis at Alton Towers. Nemesis is known for having some of the best theming of any such ride as well as one of the most intense experiences with its tight layout. Many fans consider it the best ride at the park even today.

@spentron1 4 года назад

It was exciting, but these developments only just coming on the market meant that what we now consider commonplace was fairly rare. For example I could, within 5 hours drive, ride 2 SLCs but only 1 B&M until BGW got Alpengeist, that being Batman the most popular ride at a very popular park e.g. 1.5 hour waits. 2 more hours drive would get me to Vortex at Carowinds where Hurler was their best coaster at the time.

Oblivion isnt exactly 90° because B&M had problems with the wheels boucing on such a drop so they went with slightly less until they solved the problem

@chromplex 4 года назад

To quote Wikipedia, as sourced from Guinness 1999: "Oblivion's vertical drop is actually slightly less than 90 degrees, at 87.5 degrees. This is due to the trains lacking sprung wheel assemblies which would mean the transition from vertical to horizontal would be uncomfortable." There do seem to be conflicting statements on this. Wikipedia's stance, Luca's; I've heard yet another standpoint somewhere else that it had to do with the polyurethane used for coaster wheels of the era. No one real answer, as far as I can tell.

@RemixedVoice 4 года назад

@trj820 4 года назад

ChromaComplex No, he's saying the same thing as the wiki page. The lack of spring-loading means that the train bounces when it bottoms out, which is uncomfortable for riders.

@jonathansima7591 3 года назад

Great video! Of your output, these countdowns by decade and prime ride times are perhaps my favorites. I had a chance to visit Dutch Wonderland for the first time back in 2020, and Kingdom Coaster is definitely one of the quirkiest woodies I’ve ever ridden. Its paint scheme is something straight out of RCT3, it has little airtime but two moments of strong laterals for a coaster its size as well as a banked helix finale (from a company famous for unbanked turns). I also find it interesting that the first CCI and first GCI are within an hour of one another (side note: if you do ever get to Dutch Wonderland, don’t skip the flats. Dutch Wonder House is a rare haunted swing that must be seen to be believed, and the monorail actually passes through Kingdom Coaster’s structure, so there are some excellent photo-ops to be had).

This is another well put together video. I think the only additional mention I would make is the Vekoma Jr. coaster. One third of all Vekoma coasters built are Junior Coasters. They first came on the scene in 1991 and the same four models plus some custom variants are as popular today as they were in the 90's, with 15 opening since 2019 (including 4 that haven't but were/are scheduled to open 2020-2021). So really the Junior Coaster may be more important to Vekoma post 90's success than even Big Thunder Mountain ( /Disney) was.

Vekoma febricated the track for every Big Thunder Mountain coaster well before Paris's. They also fabricated Disneyland's Space Mountain in addition to Tokyo's. All of those models have been replaced with Dynamic Attractions trackwork, but Disney worked with Vekoma over a decade before BTMRR at Paris was even on the drawing board. Now you're absolutely correct that their relationship with Disney probably got them through the 90's and early 2000's.

Glad to see Ride of Steel made the list. It not only helped Intamin to building Millennium Force, but it also put my original home park on the map. Darien Lake had a great reputation back, and 1999 marked the beginning of the Six Flags era as well as the fourth year in a row in which they received a new coaster, although the Schwarzkopf indoor coaster they got in 1996 was relocated to Great Escape prior to the start of the season. Either way, it's hard to imagine the park ever gets another coaster as tall and as fast as Ride of Steel, but I can appreciate the fact that this coaster was memorable to the industry in some way and how it still runs well at the park.

@gordontaylor2815 4 года назад

Darien Lake has a lot more going for it than just the coasters. Hopefully with them back in the Six Flags chain they can get the time and money investments needed to live up to their full potential (i.e. RMC Predator and have Mind Eraser fitted with new restraints) - most of the problems they had in recent years are a consequence of having to go it alone on shoestring budgets ever since the end of the original Six Flags era.

It's probably not B&M calling all the shots in that regard, though. Parks buying their coasters probably ask for less forceful rides with the aim of not scaring off the general public. As much as enthusiasts might be looking for intense experiences, pleasing regular people is ultimately necessary for keeping any park alive.

@garywillig5143 3 года назад

I think people really underestimate just how revolutionary Kumba was back in 1993. In terms of elements it didn't do much that was new, but it still set an entirely new standard for what a steel coaster could be. Gone were the janky transitions of the Arrow and Vekoma loopers. Kumba was smooth and graceful - while still being intense - in a way that just wasn't possible before. The difference can be seen when comparing Kumba to Drachen Fire at sister park Busch Gardens Williamsburg, which was Arrow's attempt at building a coaster with a more B&M-like layout. They just couldn't compete. Arrow admitted in the 90s that they couldn't do what B&M was doing. They couldn't make looping coasters as smooth or with such complex layouts, and for a while no one else could either. Kumba is like the Quake of inverting roller coasters. It wasn't the first, but pretty much every non-inverted looping roller coaster since has a bit of Kumba in its DNA like how most 3d video-games have some Quake code in them.

I'm surprised at how many of these I'd ridden, and even more if I can count clones and relocations in the mix. More importantly, I can remember the buzz when a lot of these new models premiered -- Volcano and Superman The Escape had entire shows on Travel Channel dedicated just to them. But what I remember most is how original and innovative they seemed to those of us who'd grown up with 70s and 80s coasters. The first time I rode a B&M invert, then a floorless, then a stand-up, and Flight of Fear's launch -- these were sensations I'd never experienced before on a coaster. It felt like every year brought something completely new.

Thank you for calling out Universal! I can’t forgive them for what they did to Dragon Challenge! 2 credits I’ll never get! 😔

Ahh yes the 90s. This will fit my coaster preferences well.

Don’t forget this was also the best decade for music.

Oblivion's drop angle is slightly less than 90 because B&M at the time did not use sprung wheel bogies so its less than vertical to prevent a slam back onto the rail.

3:52 DANGLE GP to ENTHUSIAST, one more video for you! Edit: Not really, I just associate the word 'dangle' with the 'dangling coaster' meme.

Damn you forget Great America, started some good rides. Also you teased me with Incredible Hulk being at the start.

Airtime thrills with another stellar video - - Constructive comment w/ all due respect: what about Tennessee tornado 1999??? - - last arrow looper and the best one - - also was the turning point for Dollywood becoming a major high thrill ride/Thrill coaster theme park

The main reason that Oblivion was not completely vertical is because if they made it a full 90 degrees then the wheels would have not been able to stay on the track making it a rough ride. So they had to make it less than 90 so that the wheels could stay on the track the whole ride

The reason oblivion isn't exactly vertical is because it doesn't have the spring loaded wheels that other dives have, meaning if it was vertical the wheels would slip and free fall.

Outlaw at Adventureland AKA the GCI Prototype

Cool list and agree with most. I would have put Batman as number one. It may have not been the first B&M but it was their first iconic/innovative coaster. I also would have gone with Raven as the representative for CCI. It showed they were capable of making world class woodies.

Another one is Ride of Steel at Darien Lake, that was Intamins true first coaster. Their other prior rides don't really count because they were really rides made by Giovanola and Intamin acted as a middle man to sell them to parks. Ride of Steel was the first coaster they made without Giovanolas help

Steel Phantom at Kennywood. Opened in 1991. First coaster to break 80 mph. 225-foot drop. Another Arrow creation.

I'm pretty sure they didn't make oblivion 90 degrees because of the train design. The wheels dont hug the track perfectly so making it 90 degrees would have caused a huge jolt at the bottom of the drop.

I’m surprised Tennessee Tornado isn’t here since it kinda revived Arrow, even if it was just for a little bit. Like with Sega at the same time.

@AirtimeThrills 4 года назад

Yeah it just wasnt significant enough since it didnt lead to anything

Airtime Thrills sadly.
