Hah, you make it sound like most viewers of this channel shit on Intamin! Intamin rules and I think the vast majority would put them in the top 3 manufacturers.
@@Asshat237 No, but i mean, most people top 3 is RMC, B&M or Mack so thats why i said Intamin is one of the better manufecturers. (No hate too all the other manufecturers)
Intamin slaps - old and new. Forces on their older rides are underrated: Rush's sustained lats, Red Fire's snappy lats, and Mav's enhanced positives, all thanks to those soft straps preventing my hands from staying up in between elements offering a battle. The creativity is a testament to how talented Stengel and those designers were.
So far for me Taron, criminally underrated ! Brutal, with an incredible theming, soundtrack one of the best I've ever heard and also the power of this machine, my god. I have no words to describe it
He doesn't like Taron for some reason. its still pretty high in my list. But then what he really likes i don't find that importend for a lot elements. If you know what het likes and why you can pretty much predict wich coasters you like he is very consistent and you like what you like can't blame anybody for that.
Such an amazing coaster manufacturer! I actually have more RMCs in my top 10, but videos like these just goes to show how amazing and diverse Intamin’s coaster collection is. They deserve the title of #1
Well said John! I have more RMC’s in my top 10 as well, but Intamin’s outstanding portfolio is what keeps them a hair above them in my manufacturers list.
Great video ! I just want to add something about Toutatis ! It's manufactured by Intamin but it's not designed by them, Julien Simon is the designer and he is working for the Compagnie Des Alpes 😉He is the designer of many coasters in Walibi Belgium, Walibi Rhône-Alpes and now Parc Astérix.
What I take from this list? As much as I love Velocicoaster, if there is a better coaster out there I need to ride it! Looks like I gotta book a trip to Kings Dominion 🫡
Intamin is my favourite ride manufacturer too, my current top 10 is: 10: Desert Race (Heide Park) 9: The Storm Coaster (Dubai Hills Mall) 8: Formula Rossa (Ferrari World Abu Dhabi) 7: Goliath (Walibi Holland) 6: Manta (SeaWorld Abu Dhabi) 5: Colossos (Heide Park) 4: Taron (Phantasialand) 3: Flying Aces (Ferrari World) 2: Hyperion (Energylandia) 1: Kondaa (Walibi Belgium) I've not ridden any US coasters yet, and there are many good intamins in Europe that I need to experience too
First of all, banger intro. Second, while VelociCoaster is still my only intamin (didnt have time for hagrids and cheetah hunt when i hit bgt) I'll forever adore it for its incredible theming and layout combination, I mean the second half is just peak sequencing.
My favorite Intamin is Millennium Force at Cedar Point. Some of my other favorites are Top Thrill Dragster and Maverick at Cedar Point, Cheetah Hunt at Busch Gardens Tampa, Superman: The Ride at Six Flags New England, Xcelerator at Knott's Berry Farm, Intimidator 305 and Volcano: The Blast Coaster (R.I.P.) at Kings Dominion, and California Screamin' at Disney's California Adventure, although I haven't ridden it as Incredicoaster yet and I am skeptical about how much I'll like it now.
Intamin has such an elite portfolio of coasters, it's so hard to pick just a couple. But I think it's hard to argue with Skyrush, I305, and Velocicoaster as the top 3. I haven't ridden Veloci yet, but Skyrush and I305 are my overall favorite coasters in existence.
i305 I only rode once a while ago. It peeved me that it has trims and OTSR’s. Skyrush and Toro are elite though. I want to see a giga built in the style of one of those two rides- AIRTIME FOCUSED
I really like the new intro, but I feel like if you wanted to make it better, you could add in more POVs at the end to speed up the intensity like the last one, because I felt that synced with the music a little better. Overall this is a killer idea and I love your videos!
Thanks for the comment! I actually did sync each clip with the music, just like the old intro, but it’s a bit harder to notice with these being POVs and not offride shots.
Booooooo.... let's hope for new trains this year. Superman The Ride will probably never leave my top 10, mostly due to nostalgia. I get why people don't like it as much these days (darn U-bricks), but at its peak, very few hypers could top it.
I ofcourse mis Taron on this list but i know how you feel about that one so not really a suprise. Considering the diference in our taste in coasters this is pretty much what i expected from at least the coasters i have ridden. Great you keep it consistence gives me a great indications on what coasters i don't want to miss. Also we both have the same nr 1 in woody and steel for intamin. So yup i can fully appriciate your list and don't let people give you grieve over Kha. For me its to much of a one trick pony but its probable one of the best tricks in the world. Besides You like what you like (and if its a walk on i do love riding that one).
Intamin made me an Enthusiast and i am really thankful for that (Taron ❤) Any other Intamin ive been on did not disappoint either. Kondaa, Hyperion, Expedition GeForce, Goliath, Toutatis, i cant wait for Taiga and Gotham City escape since they are said to be the best. I Think i like Mack a little more tho, nowadays. Any ride they bring out kicks ultimate 4ss, i cant wait for Voltron
I can understand how this must have been extremely difficult. Having not ridden VelociCoaster it could very well dethrone Skyrush for me and will possibly get on it at the end of this year🤞🏻Being a native Virginian, I’m happy that you crowned I305 as the best Intamin🎢👑
Of the many Inamin coasters I'ver ridden, my top five are 5: Kinda Ka; 4: Maverick; 3: Top Thrill Dragster; 2: El Toro; 1 Millennium Force. I'm sure Velocicoaster beats all of them, even if I haven't yet ridden it. Thanks for postingL Intamin is one of if not the best coaster manufacturers. Thanks for posting!
Been on 12 of the 15 on your list. Planning on getting on Hyperion and Taiga this summer. Gotham City Escape is the other one I'm missing. My Top Intamins are as follows: 1. Velocicoaster 2. Toutatis 3. SkyRush 4. Kondaa 5. El Toro 6. Expedition GeForce 7. Taron 8. Pantheon 9. I-305 10. Maverick 11. Millennium Force 12. Storm Runner 13. Kingda Ka 14. Goliath (Walibi Holland) 15. Superman the Ride (SFNE)
Kondaa is still the most underrated coaster in the world imo. Admittedly I’ve only ridden it on a hot summer day, but it’s still my #1 in the entirety of Europe. The first outerback is ridiculous. You’re out of your seat for like 2 seconds and get slammed back down. I definitely don’t like Hyperion as much. I think everything up until and including the dive loop is literally perfect, but after that the ride completely falls apart. The speed hills and stengel dives don’t really do anything at all. I way preferred Zadra.
I just rode Xcelerator at knott's berry farm last Saturday, and it is now one of my favorite coasters, and I understand why you are so disappointed by Top Thrill 2 now! That launch must have been so amazing on dragster judging by my rides on xcelerator. Hopefully I get out to Great Adventure and get a ride on Kingda Ka, which will surely make my top 5.
That’s awesome! Yeah, unfortunate about Top Thrill Dragster. That and Kingda Ka have a launch that is at least 3x more insane than Xcelerator’s, which is saying a lot!
Could you ever plan a small trip to the Pacific Northwest we have two amusement parks in Oregon the washing state fair and there's a Washington state county fair if you catch it your lucky cause it travels the state fair is open in April and September then there's wild waves theme and water park and there's wings and waves water park in Oregon those are the places that are noteworthy I was wondering in the future could you plan a trip to do theses parks Im a big fan of your channel
I actually share the same opinion as you where if you removed the theming on Toutatis, I think Pantheon would be a tad better. Mostly because of the top hat and outerbanked hill on Pantheon. My top 15 is: 1. Taiga 2. Batman Gotham City Escape 3. Skyrush 4. VelociCoaster 5. Taron 6. Hyperion 7. El Toro 8. Intimidator 305 9. Maverick 10. Kondaa 11. Toutatis 12. Pantheon 13. Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure *Top Thrill Dragster would have placed here 14. Red Force 15. Millennium Force Kingda Ka at number 16
@@AMCustomCoasters I've heard that before and that's crazy to me. It felt very powerful and sustained, almost like an Intamin version of ArieForce One or Steel Vengeance's outerbank. It rode nearly identical to Kondaa's.
Hmmm respectable list as always but I gotta say that Kondaa and Hyperion are definitely placed wrong I think. They should trade places if anything^^ But yeah Kondaa continues to be heavily overrated at least in my opinion. I have been on barely half of Europe and Kondaa already sits outside my top 5 at no 7 behind Geforce and even Taron (which is close tbf but I respect the whole package and the good launches). People say Kondaa is an improved Geforce, I say it is an trimmed down Geforce. Less height, less aggressive airtime, lots of miss elements ( Cobra roll and those weird little hills at the end). I mean they brought in some more variety compared to Geforce but those elements arent really hits. Combine that with less height, speed, weaker airtime and in my opinion a weaker drop and you got a weaker coaster in general. I cant speak on many of the other ones because I havent ridden any of the multi launches besides Taron but my preference being tall drops I could easily see Hyperion at least taking Kondaas spot in this list. And Kondaa possibly cutting from it all together. I guess rides like Skyrush, Kingda ka and I305 need to be experienced to judge allthough Skyrush especially seems to polarize quite a bit. Some find even Geforce to be better though that arent many so idk. I would very much hope Skyrush to be better but yeah.. Batman I feel like is my most anticipated one out of the ones Im missing. Taiga also and ofc Maverick. If you see some of these placements you think they are low but thats only because Intamin has so many great rides its crazy…
i like that Taron is not in your Ranking ... Taron may have one of the best themings out there but the coaster itself is not as good as many people claim it to be . when taron opened you got so much hate inside the german community if you not had Taron as the #1 for me it was the best launch coaster in germany without a doubt but not even close my number one ... from all Intamin's i've ridden so far : 1) Kingda Ka 2) Hyperion 3) El Toro 4) Taron 5) Colossos ( Heide Park )
i get to ride i305 this may, will it be running good then? i expect it to take my #2 spot and maybe even top steel vengeance for my #1 since i love speed so much
It's above steel vengeance for me... then again so is twisted timbers so maybe my opinion is bad? imo how good it runs only matters after the trim so you'll still get a stellar first half even on a colder day.
My top 3 Intamin should be: 3 Kondaa 2 Taron 1 Toutatis I think people need to stop complaining about the trim on Toutatis and how it takes away from the riding experience, like it's only one element. Toutatis is such a diverse ride, with some of the best airtime and inversions I've ever experienced, and even if that trim exists, I can look past that it and see how fantastic Toutatis is for the rest.
I like your list! However, I disagree that people should stop complaining about the trim on Toutatis. It’s a completely valid criticism for an otherwise spectacular ride.
That was not was I tryna sayin, of course it's a valid criticism but I just think people had to stop focusing ONLY on that element and forget the rest of the layout
I don’t think velocicoaster has the best theming in the world. Maybe in North America but there are some fantastic themed rides in Europe. Also Intimidator has nothing on the Coney Island looper for intensity- that pulled 12gs
Seeing a back-to-back list like this all at once makes it so palpably clear just how staggeringly good Intamin is. Gravity Group may be my quirky favorite, but Intamin is my more “objective” pick for the greatest manufacturer. Who can argue with it, aside from those who love RMC as the best? Btw, I’d rank ExGF and Hyperion above Kondaa. 🤷♂️
A great Intamin is really awesome, but I could make the argument that Intamin has some bad coasters while RMC has yet to produce anything that could be consider a bad coaster. I think they are clearly the top 2.
@@alantrotter2077 The worst RMCs I’ve been on were Joker and New Texas Giant, and they were both fantastic. You’re right that RMC is the most consistently excellent manufacturer in the world. Buuuut I may be outside the norm on this, but when I think of my personal top ten … there are no RMCs in it. 😳 Actually, I haven’t redone my ranking in quite a while, so that may not be true (I had the most fun on Untamed and Twisted Timbers, so those are real faves for me). Anyway, this coming summer I will finally get on Iron Gwazi, and that one might have the potential to become a new top favorite, judging by the layout. But that’s what I thought of Zadra, which was awesome but not a personal favorite in the end.
@@StamfordBridge if I look at my top 10, I have more RMCs 6-3. If I look at my top 25 I have more intamins. 10-9. If I look at my top 50 I have more RMCs 17-12. And I’m planning on riding Zadra, Hyperion, and taiga this year. Possibly Medusa at SFMexico. So it’s pretty close. You don’t have steel vengeance in your top 10. I do have iron Gwazi, untamed, and twisted Timbers in my top 10.
my rankings (from what ive ridden I will be including defunct) 1 El toro 2 superman the ride 3 intimidator 305 4 skyrush 5 maverick 6 Batman gotham city escape 7 Velocicoaster (I can already hear the fanboys outside my door) 8 Millennium force 9 pantheon 10 Hyperion (might be a hot take I have this so low) 11 storm runner 12 Top thrill dragster (once again some might think this is extremely low) 13 red force 14 kingda ka 15 Xcelerator
@@coasti6718 All Phantasialand Coasters are in this weird spot. They are very different from "normal" rides, so it is hard to compare. Taron doesnt offer the thrills that you find on other coasters, but on the other Hand it offers thrills that you can not find somewhere else. I understand everybody that doesnt enjoy it that much as i understand everybody who puts in on their #1 Taron and Klugheim feel like they were build for the night, at night the attractions is at itstrue form
Nice ranking and a pretty stacked list. My Intamin ranking would look something like this: 1. Taiga 2. Batman GCE 3. Formula Rossa 4. Manta (SeaWorld Abu Dhabi) 5. Flying Aces 6. Toutatis 7. Hyperion 8. Kondaa 9. Taron 10. Nefeskesen 11. Red Force 12. Red Fire 13. Expedition GeForce 14. Kawasemi/Piraten 15. Storm Coaster Yeah I know that some spots are controversial, but that’s just my personal opinion and I can totally see why you could rank them in a different order
This is an awesome list! You have some intamins I have yet to ride like Rossa, Aces, Manta & the Turkish Blitz Coasters. Hoping to get on those at some point in the near future🤞🏻
@@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od True, Formula Rossa isn’t really up there in most Intamin rankings. But I love that launch way too much, it’s actually my favorite element on any coaster. Front row night rides on Rossa are out of this world
I’m sorry but I have to disagree with Velocicoaster being the best themed rollercoaster in the world, not even close; I would say F.L.Y is much better themed
