My one and only ride on Splash Mountain (FL) this summer was also my first and only evac - our log stopped at the Brer Bear animatronic that's on its back with the beehive on his head and we got to listen to that sound effect for about 10 minutes before we were lead off the ride and given water and a fast-pass to almost any ride. Shame I'll have to wait a few more years at least to try again, and by then it may finally be rethemed (not sure what the status is on that these days). It's awesome that a little park like Phantasialand can have two of the top 10 water rides; I've heard great things about Chiapas and its drop.

Thank you for including Zoom Phloom! It's a fun ride even if it's a bit jerky and the dark ride section "Under the Boardwalk" is tacky but cute. It's my family's tradition to go through that part singing along with the music. Morey's is severely underrated. It seems to get written off as just "another" boardwalk park on the Jersey shore, especially with Great Adventure a little over an hour away. But they really do have a nice collection of top-notch rides, including this great flume, a fun woodie and better examples of SLC and Boomerang than most!

I love water rides and we have so few (good ones) in the UK. I'm most excited about Jurassic Park, but I absolutely love Chiapas. My partner and I went in September so we rode it all afternoon without getting off the boat. It's the second best ride at Phantasialand, after Taron, just before Die Gieste Rickshaw, which we both loved for its weirdness (and calming effect after hitting Taron too hard).

I saw this video come up in my queue and I had to watch out curiosity to see if my all-time favorite water ride made the list, and surprisingly it did!!! Thank you so much for including the Zoom Phloom on Morey’s Piers in Wildwood, NJ!!! As a native Jersey Girl, I have been riding this ride since forever! Our family religiously went on vacation to Wildwood every summer, and no trip to the boardwalk was ever complete until my brother, sister, and I rode that log flume!!! The second drop is absolutely spectacular!!! And now as a grown adult with a family of my own, we still have to ride the Zoom Phloom whenever we get down to Wildwood. And as another commenter mentioned, you should do a video on the rides of Morey’s Piers. They’re one of the reasons why Wildwood’s Boardwalk is one of the best in the world!!!🤩🤩🤩

@ThemeParkAvenue 2 года назад

My favorite is Dudley Do-Right. It is so fast-paced, visually pleasing, thrilling, and way more fun than Splash Mountain.

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

I agree Ripsaw Falls has a better drop, but Splash crushes it elsewhere.

@zacg_ 2 года назад

Obviously it's all subjective but I find the theming on Ripsaw Falls to be a bit underwhelming. I'm actually a HUGE fan of the old Rocky & Bullwinkle cartoons and their spin offs such as Dudley Do- Right and I understand that the theming is intentionally minimalistic to match the minimalist style of the old cartoon. But I think that they went too far with that idea and built sets that are incomplete. It's weird because this stands in stark contrast to the wonderfully garish ride facade they built. It is a fantastic ride with some thrilling elements, comic moments and lots of water. But I do wish the theme was more consistent and fleshed out. On the other hand I find Splash Mountain to be a more seamless and well paced experience. The mountain itself looks like it could exist in the stories of Brer Rabbit. And the dark ride segments are top notch and they all build to the climax well. I especially think the music elevates the ride. And the multiple drops, including the indoor drop in the dark with a bunny hill, really make it a satisfying experience. I'm not saying you're wrong to like Ripsaw Falls more. That's a matter of personal taste. But I'm just giving you my perspective on what I think makes Splash Mountain a superior ride.

@maxhagenauer24 2 года назад

On a nice hot day of you want some water, water rides are probably the perfect go to. I love water coasters the most, then log flumes, then river rapids. Of corse we aren't including water slides. But every park, especially one that gets hot in the summer should have a water ride of some sort.

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

@MattMcIrvin 2 года назад

For me, river rapids rides are the best because my whole family will go on them and it's a communal laugh riot. For so many thrill rides and even some dark rides, I end up doing them solo because nobody will go on them with me. But these I can share.

@zacg_ 2 года назад

Splash Mountain HAD to be number one. I mean, nothing else is on that level. I'm glad to see the Log Chute getting some love as well. It's the best ride at the Mall of America by far. I know you've said you are undwhelmed by Timber Mountain Log Ride's final drop but I'm still surprised to see it so low. One ride I'd like to give some credit to is Escape from Pompeii. After the first time I rode that I felt that every other Shoot the Chute (except Jurassic Park) was really wasted potential. I get that most parks can't build something like Jurassic Park River Adventure but Escape from Pompeii uses a normal layout with a simple short dark ride section. The facade and that dark ride portion really elevate the experience and I don't think such additions are WAY beyond the means of most parks. It's just another example of taking something simple and making it great. It's also another example of why BGW is such an excellent park.

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

Escape from Pompeii just missed the list. I love the fire.

@zacg_ 2 года назад

@@CanobieCoaster I don't necessarily think your list needed Pompeii. I just bring it up because I think it is an example of taking a simple idea and making it grand. Shoot the chute rides in the 80s and 90s were like the Vekoma Boomerang of water rises. They're simple, they are straightforward to build, they have an understandable appeal and gimmick and they require less effort to build and maintain than other water rides. But BGW took this overused concept and essentially fixed it. From a ride stand point it is no more complex than any other shoot the chute. But the dark ride overall with audio-animatronics, well done sets and fire effects make it into a far greater ride. I don't expect a Six Flags park to have a ride with its own score or anything. But it wouldn't take much to add a Looney Toons overlay to any of their shoot the chute rides. Cedar Fair could probably do a bit better. Family owned parks could probably have some kind of local historical scene play out and it could be done on the cheap. I just think BGW proved that these rides have much more potential.

I am familiar with some of the water ride(s), like the one at Knott's Berry Farm in California even though I have never been to the park. I have seen the water ride on several RU-vid videos and I hope that someday, you will be able to ride the ones that you have not ridden on before, so that you can have video footage for us in the future. Especially video footage of Legend Of The Labyrinth Lagunasia, if you can find one on here. Sometimes, people will let you use their video(s) as long as you give them credit at the end and/or put the username at the top or bottom of the video if RU-vid will allow it. My favorite water ride is the Journey To Atlantis at Sea World in Orlando, Florida and I have been on it twice in the same day. Hopefully, I can go on it again someday, but I will just have to enjoy it on RU-vid until then(lol).

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

I've ridden all of the attractions on this list. I only took photos prior to 2020, which is why I don't have video footage of some of the older rides. Very few people have been to Lagunasia, so there wasn't much footage for that ride. Theme Park Review has a POV though.

Not sure if you’ve been to Gardaland or not but it has 2 incredible water rides that imo defo deserve to make this list

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

Their Pirates dark ride is great, but that one has gentle downhill slopes as opposed to a true drop. Fuga de Atlantide is fun, but not better than these 25.

@Haazza 2 года назад

Ah okay interesting! I personally thought Fugas drops were great and unique as they have the fountains spraying you as you go down the drops

@Riky4646 Год назад

i suggest to take a look at Fuga Da Atlantide at Gardaland

@CanobieCoaster Год назад

I like that ride quite a bit.

@jarmoliebrand2005 2 года назад

How is Flying Dutchman only #20? Maybe because you don’t get all that wet. But apart from that it’s got amazing theming, music, darkride and being a coaster instead of a flume, it is overall more thrilling.

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

I prefer dark rides with more sets. I agree Flying Dutchman has a great atmosphere though.

When I was a little boy I rode the original Jurassic Park ride and that giant dinosaur on the big drop freaked me out so much

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

It's amazing.

@Smiler_Fangirl619 Год назад

Valhalla has 3 drops, not 2. Also, it's officially open again after a nearly 4-years reimagining! It hasn't refrained from getting the riders absolutely DRENCHED, though! :D

@CanobieCoaster Год назад

Ah ok, I only remember 2. But I'm glad it's open again with the effects again.

@rockthecraft 2 года назад

WILD WEST FALLS AT MOVIE WORLD IN AUSTRALIA!!!!!!!!! It looks very similar to Rio Bravo at Parque Warner Madrid, except I'm pretty sure it has a bigger final drop.

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

I'm sure I would love that one and I hope to ride it one day.

@someoneout-there2165 Год назад

Sadly they let all the theming and certain ride elements go but when I was young Journey to Atlantis was my favorite. Haven't seen the whole list yet but I also hope Escape From Pompaii makes the list too.

Let's compare. In your original raft ride countdown, you had River Quest at Phantasialand as your favorite raft ride and now it's Popeye & Bluto's Bildge-Rat Barges at Universal's Islands of Adventure. And in your log flume countdown, you had Zoom Flume at Morey's Piers at #10 and now it's #7. Also you had Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls at Universal's Islands of Adventure ranked ahead of Rio Bravo at Parque Warner Madrid and Valhalla at Blackpool Pleasure Beach but now you have those two ranked ahead of Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls. I can't say I saw those changes coming.

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

I revisited Phantasialand and Islands of Adventure so rides moved around based off my latest rides.

@CancelHappiness Год назад

I kinda grew out of water rides. Loved them as a kid. But now I'm just like, ehhh. Kinda ambivalent towards them. That being said, if I get the opportunity to ride any of these, I certainly will. The majority look extremely cool.

@CanobieCoaster Год назад

I still love them. I just want to come off with dry shoes if possible.

@joshkirkham4281 2 года назад

For me it’s between Valhalla, Chiapas and Fuga Da Atlantide

Atlantide had a cool ride system, but the theming wasn't as good as I hoped.

When they do redo the Splash Mountain I bet it's going to be so cool more animatronics probably more coloring the music's going to be called does Disney rocks

I must say I am surprised to see Frozen Ever After on the list. I hate the ride because I feel there is no story and the song choice is horrible. For me, good animatronics do not make up for a boring ride.

The music and visuals are enough for me even if the story is basic.

@Jbr2005 2 года назад

Edit: I see you mentioned your list doesn't include water slides. I just realized that. But if you haven't uou should visit Holiday World in Santa Clause Indiana and ride their water coasters. They may not have the theming as some of these rides, but were voted as being some of the best water rides in the country when they debuted. Like the Wildebeest won the golden ticket from Amusement Today for 3 years for best water park ride 2009-2011, and the golden ticket the year it debuted for best new water ride. The Mammoth, their other one still holds the record for length of water coaster. Mammoth got the 2012 golden ticket award for best new water ride.

@CanobieCoaster 2 года назад

I have a video ranking my favorite water coasters. I separated water rides and slides since they're usually in two different types of parks (amusement vs water).

@colliric Год назад

The original version of Rio Bravo is Wild West Falls in Movie World, Australia and the original Australian version has a better ride story and music throughout.

@CanobieCoaster Год назад

I've heard the airtime on Rio Bravo is better though.

@colliric Год назад

@@CanobieCoaster Yeah that's because the original ride doesn't have the interesting backwards camel hill on the first drop, instead it has a harder steeper backwards drop and goes much faster into the Switch track element while epic western music is playing. The other big difference is that on the original version of the ride, the final drop is hidden from view until the doors fling open, where as in the Rio version there's no final doors.
