The 2nd Tier: My Favorite Coasters #51 -  

Chris: My 50-100 list I305 fans: It’s our time to shine

I can’t wait until he does third tier and does all the Batman clones.

very entertaining list, even if i didn’t necessarily agree with it. nice job chris 🙌🏻

10:31 Coaster Frenzy clicks off the video

0:05 something flew out of the back row!

#66 - I-305 Me: Okay, it's just his opinion #65 - Comet Me: **TRIGGERED** Chris: This will probably trigger a lot of people

You really gotta reride Hulk its incredible now. Smooth, intense, and an on-ride soundtrack. Also it hauls big time at night

Lol Skyrush isn’t even in his top 100 😂

I remember back in January when i was at track practice, and I would walk my sore behind home while watching airtime thrills. Those were good times.

THANK YOU for having Great Bear on here😀. I love how it doesn't follow the cookie cutter b&m looper layout

Honestly, I'm just amazed how organized you are to have every roller coaster you've ridden ranked. I have a hard enough time deciding which coasters make my top 25, let alone top 50 😁

Can you do a most disappointing coasters list? I know you’ve already covered bits and pieces throughout other videos, but I would love a list of them.

I am SOOO happy that you shouted out Great Bear and Comet! Hersheypark has been my lifelong home park and Comet and Great Bear have been in my top 5 favorite coasters at the park since I began riding coasters as a kid. Two very fun and very underrated rides!

This is how I imagine Chris immediately after he rides a new coaster: "Wow, that was pretty good, definitely my new number 67, no contest"

6:00 Lol that transition is weirdly satisfying!

Always good to see gemini get some love, nothing better than racing your friends in the other car

Happy with your stance on boulder dash. I personally love it, but I understand how people dislike it

You gotta go back to Hersheypark for Candymonium, I rode it yesterday and it’s easily my 2nd favorite B&M hyper. Mako is still #1 but I would take it over Nitro which is the other B&M hyper I rode. I know it doesn’t sound like much but it’s truly awesome.

We all know that Lil Phantom isn't in 2nd tier, it's in the best tier

Yall be marathoning lil phantom but I be riding "Max's doggy dog coaster "

I'm genuinely surprised to see the darien lake version of ride of steel so high idk why i am but I was just not expecting it especially over some of the other coasters he mentioned

This is an awesome idea! Love to see the ones that just missed your top 50 so it’s easier to compare to what I have in my Top 25 😂. Thanks for crediting me!

When you haven’t even been on 100 coasters........

Coaster studios should do a top 50 not top 25 Edit I have been on exactly 100 coasters

Yes my guy this was a great video. This only means we want the 3rd tier 150-101. No other channel will give light to these wonderful coasters that don't get talked about enough. 🤜👍👍

Awesome video and great list, there are some really good coasters not in your Top 50 out of the ones you mentioned I've been on three of them, keep up the good work can't wait to see more videos!!!

“I don’t know of any other coaster that pulls positive and negative g forces this strong” Skyrush: *exists*

video idea : Top 10 parks in US with coasters with best airtime

Nice. Now I've gotta watch your 50 favourite coasters again.

Shockwave.. the most hidden coaster in the world. :-D So true. Last year on November 30th I visited SFOT with a friend, Both of us being big Schwarzkopf friends this was the first coaster we wanted to ride. It took us quite a while to get through the maze of paths to the ride.

I swear imma die, people sleep on Thunderbird, it has some awsome airtime and a good layout. Its smooth and provides a overall great ride.

Thanks for taking your time to make another video! I love your videos!

Your experience on Prowler really shows what a difference time of day can make for a woodie. I have only gotten two rides, front row and back row, on The Boss, and they were both first thing in the morning. The coaster had no airtime and it was really rough - so that’s my current assessment of The Boss. But I know full well that if I could get back and get a ride when it’s really warmed up, I’d probably see it very differently.

I'm happy to see the Great Bear, Superman: Ride of Steel, Tatsu, and Wicked on here, they're all ridiculously underrated.

Thanks for your opinion. Going to cedar point week after next Sunday. I've rode everything accept rougaru..., ( road it as mantis), valravyn, steel vengeance and cedar Creek mine Ride 😂🙇 mine Ride was because I was not impressed with the layout or speed. But a credit is a credit

“Nobody knows where to find this” Titan much?

Video Idea: Top ten most forgotten elements on roller coasters Basically where you talk about an elements of a certain roller coaster that is kind of forgotten about because there is a lot more better elements of the ride

loving the storm runner love!

Great video! I bet you're going to become one of the most popular rollor coaster enthusiast youtubers ever! Good luck! Great list! ❤

My only statement about the list is on Rip Ride Rockit. I am strongly of the opinion that the lift hill should never be steeper than the drop.

Great video and great record keeping of all your ride experiences! It sounded like some have been awhile since you rode them.

Just got back from SFGA and I have an AT video in my Sub Box about ranking coasters? Weekend could literally not get better THANKS CHRIS!

Love the vids man keep it up such a underrated channel

We went to magic mountain for the first time back in January. We started the day on apocalypse and felt it was the perfect start to the day coaster, good pacing but nothing crazy... Great start to the day. If it was towards the end of the day would likely have been underwhelmed

I love when Chris uploads

This is something I was really interested in seeing 👍

How about a 2nd Tier list of your favorite parks? Like #25-11, since you already did a Top 10 parks list. Or maybe a list of your Top 10 LEAST favorite parks?

0:05-0:09 THAT GUY LOST HIS HAT ON JOKER LOL

These are The misfits of coasters, the ones that always gets overshadowed in their own park. They need justice, people always run towards the rmc, but never the almost as good coaster sitting in the back of the park. Except mr freeze, that always has the longest line in the park.

I just did my 50th coaster this past weekend at Kentucky Kingdom on Storm Chaser. It was really good!

ROS doesn’t have the original t bars, it got new trains in 2018 with intamins modified version, it’s more bulky and doesn’t have that part cut out in the middle, so it presses agains ur waist as well instead of just ur legs, and cuz of this it also makes the seatbelt dig in to ur legs unless u move the seat belt away, with that said it still has great restraints and amazing airtime and I’m glad to have a ride like it at my home park

You can't count Dominator at Kings Dominion as two separate roller coasters because that's the exact same coaster from Geauga Lake. It's not a clone from another park. It's a relocation which means you've already ridden it even though it's been moved to a different park. The same goes for the former Firehawk at Kings Island.

Maybe you could do a bottom fifty for all the airless, way too rough and bone stapling rides

I wish Silver Bullet from Knotts was on this, when you are in the back, and the restraints have some room, you get air

What are your thoughts on Revenge or the Mummy? Premier Rides Multi-Launch coaster.

Hum griffon over sheikra. I love them both but I see your point. Also love the rankings at Hershey park. Missing coasters this year. But rode sheikra in feb and July and hoping again to travel to Florida in oct. thanks for the video. Please keep them coming.

Oh wow, I'm surprised that the new retrack hasn't pushed Apocalypse higher than number 100, but that's still respectable

Comet is probably my favorite wooden coaster, it's ridiculously underrated. Also, I'm suprised that Lightning Racer also at Hershey Park didn't make this list. It's not perfect by any means, but in terms of racing wooden coasters, I'd rank it higher than Gemini.

Woooah... Prowler at 99? That my #11 out of 306, and I thought it had the strongest airtime of any GCI. To be fair, I was riding it in the evening and in a light rain.

13:58 look at that hat fall off lolol

I like the new font you used for when you give credit!

I know you sound sad about Chinese Fireball being scrapped, however trust me on this one, Hagrids Motorbike adventure is a really good ride, even from a coaster perspective.

Waiting for an european trip to blow up the list x) Still a really cool and interesting video though ^^

0:06 rip that mans hat

Yay! My (second, sorry, my best friend has a music channel, so of course I prefer them) Favorite RU-vidr uploaded!!! I always look forward to these videos... :)

Very good list.

Coaster frenzy will be typing

Yes, we hit 43K! Go Chris! Take that, Ryan!

Anyone else remember the first season or two of Goliath at SFNE before they replaced the trains? Those trains were the most comfortable I've ever seen on a coaster. I got like 20 rides on it, loved that ride. Now I skip it. The new trains really do ruin it.

Cool! That is a cool list, Chris! The vid is great! I am happy you revealed that list friend! You're the best coaster YT I know! You are awesome! #AirtimeThrills

I don't think it's fair for a relocated ride to take up 2 spots.

One of these days I may figure out what my Top 10, 50 or 100 are. I usually end up over debating myself when I start making such a list. - Gary

Thank me or not, you’re very welcome.

I was just at Hershey for the first time yesterday and it was awesome even if I didn’t get to ride storm runner, but skyrush is super fun and you hate on it way too much

Thats interesting you found Shikra rough, i think its butter smooth, you probably rode it on a hot day

Love the content bro 👍

0:06 rip hat

Do yourself a favor and ride Gatekeeper in the heat of the day in the back. I was genuinely shocked at the forces. My first ride was in the front area and I was literally bored. But I got the chance to ride it again and I’m SO HAPPY I did.

Good vid as always

How does anyone have the memory to recall rides on coasters from years back. Do you write down notes after you come off every ride?

#75 Tatsu „By far the best flying coaster I‘ve ever ridden“ #68 & #67 Vekoma flying coasters 🤔

Great video!

I will always regret I never rode Volcano. At least I got to both sides of Dragon Challenge (as it was then) before it stopped dueling.

Love your videos, dont love your rankings lol. Gemini over i305, The Beast, and Skyrush? Gemini is a monorail lol I cant understand it. Great video as always though

Fave coaster channel

Uh, Fahrenheit has SIX inversions, n00b! F ;) Very interesting to see your personal, not-quite-best-of-the-best.

Lol Mine Blower is rough it's so strange Rip Ride is fun and I think it was rough before the recent retrack so that's probably why it still gets some hate I haven't rode enough coasters to even make a top 40! Hopefully the virus weakens and more theme parks open up. I'm in college and only an hour 40 minutes from Carowinds, so I hope they open up! Until then, White Lightning better enjoy being my #1

So, I’m guessing Skyrush is at least in your top 400, right?

Props I have a tough time doing a top 20 let alone a top 100!

re ride thunderhead in 2020 I rode it in 2019 and I hated it but they retracted a good potion of it in 2020 and now its super smooth. also the airtime was way better. I rode it 5 times on my visit on july 2. Back row is the smoothest so make sure to ride there.

Nice list chris but i do think that there are some errors as i rode Hollywood Rip Ride rocket and it was very rough but was still enjoyable so once you ride it you may rank it lower or higher just a suggestion and thought to keep in your mind.

I need the top 50 now!!!

Yay Talon!!!! Love that low to the ground turn at the end. Is that your favorite coaster at the park??

66. Intimidator 305 Coaster Frenzy: Yikes...

Okay that was kind of a stupid question that I put right before this asking which version you were talking about. All three versions that were built are pretty much the same ride. To answer your question buddy I think premier rods did an amazing job on that very well themed indoor coaster. 🙂

I liked this video I think that you should do a 3rd tier sometime

im sorry but my jaw dropped when you said Boulder Dash lacks airtime, you might get stapled by the end, but its almost constant airtime

If I would do a top 50, it would hardly be full, but I actually did rank all my credits (I have 53 right now) ^^

I thought you loved SDC's supporting coasters Wildfire and Powder Keg and was kinda sad they didn't make this tier. Since you have all of your credits ranked, which is amazing to think given you have more credits than me (388), where do they rank?

It's crazy how we all have different experiences on the same coasters. To me, Sheikra has always been smooth and the Rip Ride Rockit has been awful & rough.
