10 DEFUNCT Wooden Coasters That Shouldv'e Been RMC'ed

RMC burst onto the coaster scene in 2011, transforming old wooden coasters into elite hybrids. But there are several coasters that have been torn down over recent years that could have benefitted from this overhaul, but they were never given the chance. Let's find the 10 best candidates among defunct woodies for the RMC treatment.

If RMC ever does a ground up SOB, they absolutely need to include the vertical loop.

[@BurgerInATux]

I hope not, a vertical loop is very basic and would only be there for the throwback to SOB, it would be a waste of space in comparison of what element(s) could replace said vertical loop

[@1prettykiki]

immelmann or dive loop would be fire

[@bettymac1866]

I'm going with the vertical loop. It seems necessary to the throwback, it's different in comparison to all these modern elements, and they have plenty of room to be creative.

[@inlinechris]

@@BurgerInATuxnah you just have been used to the bad vertical loops. Circular loops like Schwarzkopf loops are very intense and fun

[@BurgerInATux]

Thats only because Schwarzkopf loops kept their loops as close to a traditional loop as possible and not a new age loop like B&M uses (i forget the exact name). Schwarzkopf is gone, and so has their style.@@inlinechris

[@SnowghostFilms]

Minor note: Pegasus was actually originally built by Dinn, but due to a strike and construction disagreements, it was taken over by Intamin like how Vekoma took over Ninja’s construction.

[@bluesfan17]

Should’ve never finished ninja, every time im at six flags st louis and ride it i get a terrible headache

[@user-ky9yq3yl2p]

Minor note: ZERO OF THAT IS TRUE

[@SnowghostFilms]

@@user-ky9yq3yl2pEvery Source I checked either said that Dinn Corporation was the builder or that it was fully manufactured by Dinn. Everything, RCDB, Wikipedia, Coasterpedia, it evens cites a book on the legacy of Dinn as the source. So pretty sure it’s true

[@thecoasterdad9808]

I really hope KI does a ground up RMC for SOB. Since it’s a hybrid coaster, they can play the theming into a Cyborg Son of Beast. A mad scientist bringing back The dead beast. The scientist loses control of the beast and is loose in the park/woods! However the problems I see is, Steel vengeance to the north and the relationship CF has with RMC.

[@937tactical]

I would love to see Kings Island revive SOB. They have been bringing back a lot of historical attractions in one way or another. I still remember how awesome it was the first time I saw it’s massive wooden lift hill when I crested the big hill at state route 741 and 63 all those years ago.

[@butter5775]

Not gonna lie, even though a lot of people think that Son of Beast should’ve been RMD’d, I think that rolling thunder at great adventure would’ve been a better option as it could’ve been a dueling coaster and image having a dueling RMC and a world class intamin pre fab right next to each other.

[@sr.chi7741]

An intamin pre fab, a dueling hybrid, a solid raptor, a solid B&M hyper, and the world's tallest roller coaster. 5 standout coasters in one park.

[@nobodybelievesunderscores4122]

It would be like a twisted colossus of the east

[@jediofswtor5738]

As a Ohioian. I am glad you put Son of Beast at #1 and I agree! But who knows, Maybe Ceder Fairs will use RMC to rebuild SOB at Kings Island. One can hope.

[@DoomPlague]

I don't get what such a revival would entail outside of the name. There's no structure anymore and you certainly wouldn't reuse that layout.

[@jessr1698]

@@DoomPlague They could do something completely different but reuse the name. That’s sort of what they with the Bat. Also, the lot right next Beast available for a new coaster.

[@nathanwolfe7069]

RMC is afraid of vertical loops and I'd only want SOB back with its loop

[@ejectorairtime]

I like the Rolling Thunder and Thunder Road ideas. Both could've been really impressive.

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

I agree.

[@kevinthompson6986]

I actually didn’t find thunder road that rough you ain’t seen rough till you ride a GCI coaster that needs work Thunder head at Dollywood prime example but it just got retracted

[@MarsJenkar]

@@kevinthompson6986 Thunder Road wasn't axed because it was a bad coaster. It was axed because it was in the way of a water park expansion (which sadly does make sense, since Charlotte is very much a warm weather city, and does get very hot in the summer). It had the feel of a "we didn't want to do this, but we had to" decision. They probably would have axed Hurler if they'd had the choice, but the problem was that the water park area was in the southern section of the park, where Thunder Road was, and Hurler was nowhere near it.

[@Coyotek4]

I've ridden both Hercules and Rolling Thunder; the former really did require you to see a chiropractor afterwords.

[@nowthenfella4680]

I would love to see a ground up RMC version of crystal beach cyclone.

[@cynicanal111]

One that technically could still happen (it's SBNO) that would be amazing would be Magnus Colossus at Terra Mitica.

[@alexv3375]

For another Honourable Mention, I think *The Ultimate* at Lightwater Valley in the UK (which the new owners basically left to rot, then tore down unceremoniously for a laugh) would have made a phenomenal RMC conversion. With all the twisting ground-hugging sections and the speed it had, giving it things like inversions and maybe even replacing the old chain lifts with launches (the second one being into a Zero-G Roll at the crest, ala The Incredible Hulk at Islands Of Adventure) would've made it a world-class ride. Sadly, thanks to the massive double-middle finger the scumbags who now own the park threw at it and its fans (IE. stripping out everything that made the park iconic and having it now literally only cater to babies), we'll never know.

[@AirtimeThrills]

Never considered RMCing a steel coaster but not a bad idea

[@alexv3375]

@@AirtimeThrills Yeah, it was an unusual in-house design that had steel tracks on wooden supports. That's what made the thought cross my mind!

[@JMott76]

Yep, good shout Alex. Only recently heard of its demise (having ridden a few times on a trip 8 years ago) and, not gonna lie... I'm nowhere near as angry as when I learnt of Wild Mouse's removal from BPB... Still, RMCing/launching it would've been the perfect solution to those excessively rough sections and - frankly - boring overall flow (compared to the coaster it superseded as world's longest: The Beast). Now forever a what-if.

[@jerseydevil64]

Rolling Thunder absolutely should’ve been RMC’d. I still dream of a Rolling Thunder resurrection as a hybrid someday

[@Wildcattttt]

An RMC intertwining with El Toro would’ve been so cool

[@ThunderDashHub]

I totally wanted RMC Thunder Road. Carowinds already has a 1-2 punch and an RMC would certainly give it that one big 3rd punch.

[@MacRay14]

I'm glad we got Twisted Colossus (don't care if colossus was a classic, TC is an absolute masterpiece) but man, would've been interesting to know what Psyclone could've been. I think I remember it having a pretty cool layout but it was also the most painful ride I've ever been on - and I also got to ride Green Lantern lol

[@btk22279]

Rolling Thunder and Hercules were two rides of my childhood. Wish they could have been RMCed and still around today.

[@darkridedan1]

Amen

[@kevinthompson6986]

Thunder road too

[@Splater765]

Actually, according to Alan Schilke from Coaster Studios RMC documentary, he actually did briefly talk to Cedar Fair about doing Son of Beast, although he mentions that it was really only something he said just on a fly

[@Asmz95]

Saw you at WoF on Saturday wanted to say hello but didn’t want to bother you with your family. Just wanted to say love the channel and content!

[@DispatchProductions]

9:25 ground up son of beast would be epic, a 225 ft RMC Hybrid with 5 inversions a lot of airtime moments would be bliss 🥰

[@kevinthompson6986]

I’m actually waiting on RMC to Go over 500 ft like Alan shilke said they could

[@Jlaps941]

A ground up revival of Son of Beast on Vortex’s old plot would be amazing, and putting it next to The Beast would be extremely fitting

[@trecapers4485]

Although I understand why it wouldn't be on this list because the park closed, but I feel like Villain would have been a good RMC conversion. I feel like people would have called for Raging Wolf Bobs head first but RMC could have turned Villain from a really good coaster into a pretty great one. Great video, really enjoyed it.

[@colestaal5686]

Here's my anecdotal story. I ran into Don Helbig in October 2011 and brought up Son of Beast during our chat. New Texas Giant was a hit and I asked if KI was looking into manufacturers to overhaul SoB. He said all the options they looked at up to that point were too expensive and would be the same cost as a large scale coaster. I believe they already invested 30 million into SoB at that point. Don said the structure needed a lot of work and they saw the flaws during construction. He said they were still looking at other options and KI really wanted to get SoB running again if the price was right. SoB met its demise the following year. Unfortunately RMC wasn't in the picture due to cost and KI went with Banshee instead. It's too bad because RMC could have turned SoB into a crazy ride.

[@melasnexperience]

I worked briefly at Clementon in 2002 (one of the worst summer jobs I ever had), and they couldn't be bothered to maintain the restraint bars on the Jackrabbit. I got constant complaints from people who didn't know who to talk to about them not latching, coming loose mid-ride, etc, as though the concession stand cashier could help. There would have been absolutely no way they'd pay RMC to turn it into a hybrid.

[@doctorcoaster]

It’d be awesome to see a ground up RMC tribute coaster using the same style as AF1.

[@knightloveslesbians]

THUNDER ROAD IN THE AIRTIME THRILLS THUMBNAIL BEST DAY EVER ☹️☹️☹️☹️ god that was my FAVORITE as a short kid who could never get on the bigger carowinds coasters. keeping that stateline silhouette and gimmick and maybe even bringing back one going backwards could’ve been incredible!!! thunder road WAS carowinds for me, you had to drive along it to get to the entrance and it was on all of the trashcans even a year or so after its closure. pain!!!!! permanent pain!!!!

[@samuelblack7314]

Kudos to Magic Mountain for making the decision they did.

[@sr.chi7741]

Yeah, if they rmc'd psyclone it would look like twisted cyclone like over Georgia, which is miles behind Twisted colossus

[@mattlogs2]

Do top 15 coasters that need to to be RMCed

[@QDude24]

The funny thing is that Joris en de Draak is now becoming a hybrid, slowly getting all of its track replaced with titan track

[@mitchellries256]

I spoke with an employee at Kings Island on why they never gave Son of Beast the RMC treatment, and she told me it was because of bad publicity. Basically, they were too afraid to operate that ride again because of how bad of a reputation it got with the media and the park guests. That's unfortunate because that would've been the perfect candidate for an RMC redo, and I think we could easily say the same thing about any ride from the Roller Coaster Corporation of America for that matter.

[@patrickstrahm05]

RCCA and Togo... That's a scary combo right there Chris

[@masterwatermelonthemeparks]

Every time I make a park in a game I always use your check list. So I’m like need an invert need a launch and it’s a habit 🤣

[@Wildcattttt]

Then make an Intamin Impulse 😂

[@masterwatermelonthemeparks]

@@Wildcattttt YES I NEED THAT IN MY BEST PARK

[@MarsJenkar]

Was this the checklist? It was used in his videos for "coasters these parks need", with "Family" being ignored for Six Flags and Cedar Fair. * Standout * Airtime * Multilooper * Wooden * Not on Track * Launch * Spinning * Family

[@aarusharya5658]

@@MarsJenkar Yep that was. Honestly I don't think a spinning coaster is really necessary but the rest of it is a must

[@Mattia_Genuardi]

Regarding Sierra Tonante at Mirabilandia, I think the structure needed some work anyways, but it would have been awesome to see RMC step in and do its magic. Mirabilandia is long overdue for a new thrill coaster, ISpeed being the last one, dating back to 2009. I'd love to see an Intamin Hyper, but a Ground Up RMC Hybrid (that may also pay tribute to Sierra Tonante) would also be a dream. Even better if it's a Hyper Hybrid like Zadra... It would make an amazing trio with ISpeed and Katun, and give Italy the élite coaster it desperately needs...

[@busfan9874]

It would've been nice to see RMC Psyclone and RMC Hercules.

[@Wildcattttt]

Dorney Park desperately needs an RMC

[@Sonic-gy7kq]

I love this channel so much. Keep it real man. Nothing but amazing ideas and videos. Seriously favorite coastertuber you do it alll!

[@muppetsretrofan8873]

These coasters would've been EPIC as RMC coasters, but especially Thunder Road, Rolling Thunder, and Cheetah. Thunder Road also had an appearance in a 1970s Hardee's commercial advertising them giving free tickets to Carowinds [WARNING: SONG WILL GET STUCK IN YOUR HEAD IF YOU WATCH THE AD]. Rolling Thunder would've made a great RMC, but Six Flags just had to go with the drop towers on a ride that was already thrilling. What even is the point of having drop towers on a ROLLER COASTER? Though disrespecting their coaster history isn't the only frustrating things Six Flags does, the most frustating thing they do IMO, is dropping the unique characters they had pre-Looney Tunes. I understand Six Flags Over Georgia having to lose their characters [for obvious reasons 🥶], but I wish that Astroworld and Great Adventure could've kept theirs, they were so cool and unique.

[@jzckvsn]

Maybe Kings Island makes a ground up SOB recreation from RMC

[@collegeluvr]

“Steel Iron Beast’s Uncle” would definitely be better than Steel Vengeance! Such a shame. Can you imagine? That would be epic.

[@michael7054]

Great video! I would have absolutely loved to ride an RMC Son of Beast!

[@JCBro-yg8vd]

I think it's been confirmed that Cedar Fair had considered letting RMC work on Son of Beast, but the ride's structural issues and the negative publicity after the 2009 incident was just too much.

[@ejectorairtime73]

Fun fact: If you read the Kings Island: A ride through Time, you should know that KI actually talked with RMC to convert it into a hybrid! 8:45

[@BarryGGould]

thank you sooo much for putting rolling thunder on this list. that coaster was my baby. i was an operator and trainer for it for yrs. also super fun to ride. i miss it 😪

[@CommanderCalico]

4:53 You are correct. that is a scary combo.

[@ItzChoco]

Great Video as always! I'm still surprised Rolling Thunder got torn down. I remember it being in the discussion of Six Flags' next RMC along with Colossus, and I think it definetly could've gone the other way. Who knows what would've happened if Rolling Thunder got RMC'd and Colossus got torn down.

[@richmountain1128]

Colossus probably would have stayed where it was as closing it down without a replacement would cause a lot of outcry.

[@spaceemperorspar4791]

“Built by RCCA and Togo.” My entire *body* tensed in fear

[@sodacitynative1983]

Thunder Road was my first wooden coaster. They had to do a lot repairs then they only operate coaster car. The only thing I hate that Thunder Road was the South part of the park. It had to go for the expansion of Carolina Harbor really open the park even more. Also with the adding of the Intimidatpr and Fury 325 given Carowinds the Hyper & Giga coaster in one park

[@njmaxrocks]

I've always thought Hercules would have been an epic RMC!

[@jacobszilagyi284]

Something I also wonder is what would RMC even name these potential designs if they ever were gonna make these coasters into a hybrid?

[@clairefunnell8481]

There's talk that Wildebeast at Canada's Wonderland may be getting Gci refurbishment. All of these old wooden looked like a lot of fun. Too bad they are gone. An RMC Son of Beast would have been pretty wild. Be good for the park. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Carowinds should build a ground up duelling RMC

[@Calakapepe]

100% would have loved a Son of Beast RMC! But I agree with you.. that structure probably wasnt up to par. Here's hoping in the future KI could get a ground up woodie with a vertical loop! RMC still hasnt done that! Nor gravity group

[@sajk1082]

Man just think of the lineup Carowinds would have if they rmc’d thunder road in a similar vain to twisted collasus along with what they already have. That would be an elite line up

[@isaacjosephh]

surprised to see my local park on this list! i never even knew about the jackrabbit

[@zackchapman845]

A RMC Son of Beast would be legendary. Ceder fairs would have no regrets, probably one of the smartest things they could do right now , just imagine the turnout from all over the world opening something like that 👏 we can only pray and wait that KI has a surprise waiting for us in the near future 😅

[@MEGalomaniac6829]

Jackrabbit at Clementon beat you up and took your lunch money, but man...was that a piece of my childhood. As was Hercules, which was my first coaster. My dad put up with the pain every time just to make me happy. I miss him and think of him every time I ride Hydra with my sons.

[@rixrobin]

I really thought cheetah was going to get RMCed when it closed, mainly because hercshend already had two (now 3) RMCs and it seems like the park really need it. However I guess They didn’t see that was worth it, hope they do end up putting something there to replace it

[@jamescrawford1320]

I live 15 mins from. SFGA. If they could have saved rolling thunder with the RMC treatment it would be one of the best lineups out there. I loved that old coaster(s) it was such a shame to see it go

[@CoasterLoverJackie]

Great video!!

[@karlmanning2603]

I can see Wild Adventures in Georgia building an RMC from the ground up to replace Cheetah in the future. Considering the Herschend family worked with RMC for Outlaw Run and Lightening Rod, I can see them doing this again. However, I would expect an for the park to go with an RMC family coaster model given that the park seems to target a family-oriented audience.

[@darocksrulez3443]

hey man love the vids keep it up

[@ryancurley2351]

So many people say Togo is scary but Togo is pretty solid in Japan from what I’ve heard, I just think us Americans got the short end of the stick with Togo

[@alexgeorge501]

Love to see these defunct coaster as RMC's in planet coaster/no limit, i'll take a search in the YT algorithm for a few virtual rides

[@heatherblack9491]

It would be nice to have a son of beast that was done correctly. I can't tell you how excited I was when it first opened, waiting over 3 hours to go on it, just to come off with the headache I've ever had in my life. And I was still a preteen. The loop was unique because it was the first wooden coaster ever to have a loop. The best part of that ride, should have been the Helix. But by that point in time, it was so rough and it hurts so bad you just wanted to get off

[@Blitzer1001]

Fun fact about pegasus: on the first ride the train got stuck at the top of the lifthill and when the ride was over it was already raining

[@ItsAllGood_]

Speaking of RMC...when are you getting to Hershey to ride Wildcat's Revenge? Really looking forward to that vlog.

[@MrVekoma1979]

For son of beast at ki, rmc and the park DID have talks to convert sob because in coaster studios rmc documentary there’s a part where Fred grub talks about it

[@karenseale8312]

I rode Son of Beast many times! It would have been great if they could have done that to keep it going.

[@brianwolf399]

Another minor note is that without the removal of Hercules Dorney Park never would have gotten Hydra the revenge since that coaster sits on the former plot of Hercules

[@FeastablesPark]

If Hades wasn’t revamped by GG. Would RMC make a change in Mt Olympus’s profile?

[@jamesrauff]

I didn’t know that the structure of rolling thunder was not good enough for the rmc treatment. I always got so angry they get rude of that ride for a drip tower queue ! Would have been amazing to have any rmc there

[@NelsonMontana1234]

SON OF BEAST! YES! That would have been amazing. And of course it must have the iconic loop. Not having it would be like having a statue of the flag raising in Iwo Jima and not including the flag.

[@aspetty]

Thunder Road was my favorite coaster. I know it was nothing special but it was just that fun

[@SAMMEH679]

Amazing video but OMG I SWEAR I SAW U YESTERDAY AT SFGAM JUNE 26TH WHEN YOU GOT OFF OF VIPER AND WHEN U AND SOPHIE WALKED PAST X-FLIGHT AND THE FOOD COURT AROUND 6

Great idea 💡💡💡💡 B&M should start B&Ming old and rough Vekoma slcs and making them better with new elements that aren’t on B&m inverts

[@kevinthompson6986]

LOL B&Ming

[@pipepicasso8112]

Buy or Sell: Cedar Fair is waiting for GCI with their IBox track to be perfected, to build a new SOB at Kings Island. Solidifying GCI as a direct competitor to RMC. Cedar Fair still hasn't warmed back up to RMC. But, they do love GCI.

[@segari58able]

Man I miss cheetah so much!! Huge missed opportunity to RMC it. With it gone I haven't had a reason to go back to Wild adventures

[@jamesfreeman8652]

I'm not surprised the Rolling Thunder structure was too far gone, in 2010 it murdered my knees and elbows

[@Coolharry64]

I kinda wanna see an RMC of Bandit at Movie Park Germany. I also wanna see an RMC with a Cobra Roll

[@brianmacdonald7297]

As a Philadelphian, the idea of RMC Rolling Thunder and RMC Hercules within day-trip range is almost too sad to contemplate. "Wildcat's Revenge? Eh. It's just the third-best RMC in the area."

[@ChairmanChico]

Thunder Road IS the list. 😊

[@josephmorris7447]

Hear me out on this one. Judge Roy Scream at SFOT. From what I understand there is some sort of stipulation with the city of Arlington that the coaster can not be torn down but that could be bypassed by being retracked and reprofiled a la RMC? It could have an awesome out and back lay out similar to Arieforce One. Also, SFOT is in dire need of a new coaster, has little to no room, and wouldn't it be cool if the park with the first RMC could get a second one that's more modern and improved?

[@richmountain1128]

Then they would be missing a wooden coaster.

[@JJJJ-he8bz]

Son of Beast was already good to me. If it’s RMCd to the level mean Streak was it would have been game over.

[@TheWolfXCIX]

Hercules would have made the best RMC IMO. Also surprised you didn't mention Magnus Colossus at Terra Mittica in Spain, which has a gorgeous setting and would also make a world-class RMC.

[@sr.chi7741]

I don't think this counts as defunct, but Magnus Colossus is a sbno rcca in spain that uses the terrain. They could make a killer rmc hybrid like Iron rattler.

[@WhatAG23]

The world may never get the RMC ground up Son of Beast we deserve. For shame, RMC, for not having better quality in the construction of your rides and turning Cedar Fair away.

[@ScottyMania313]

Great list of coasters past. I know a few current ones on the Cedar Fair Roster, cough cough Hurler.....is Cedar Fair still grudging with RMC? Great Vid and BTW - Buy or Sell - In the next five years, Cedar Fair will reunite with Intamin and RMC.

[@diskyboy86]

Avalanche at Timber Falls and Cannonball Run at Waterville USA. Both largish wooden coasters at small family entertainment centers, so a cheap addition like a RMC would've been perfect for both parks. They also both closed after RMC started making coasters, so really, they would've been obvious picks.

[@ladyhawk7408]

I hope if the time comes. That raven or legend at holiday world gets rmc. I rode both those coasters when they were first built. I hear they are showing thier age.

[@davidbintner3375]

I've been saying Hercules! Glad to hear someone else agree

[@clintparker]

Airtime Thrills should've introduced it as Hurt your knees or cracked a joke about it shortly afterwards

[@JDEverything]

Honestly Son of Beast was in that area it was just Cedar Fair waiting a few years so the products didnt fail

[@NoahTodd-uy9de]

Carowinds didn’t need the waterpark expansion. They should have just torn out their old rides they never operate because whenever I go and the waterpark is packed only half the slides are open, and they are closed geographically so the back half is never open. RMC thunder road or even just thunder road would be so better than the pile of Hurler we are stuck with now.

[@shorebreakcards]

If Big Dipper at Geauga Lake was RMC'ed, that would of saved the park from Six Flags, I need a time machine!!!

[@kevinthompson6986]

I know it’s not nice to hold grudges but Cedar fair took my first major coaster out I mean I like intimidator but still broke my heart about thunder road cause I don’t do water parks pointless

[@boredbuilder8739]

... I still think SFGAdv should get a ground up RMC over 300. First RMC up there, and first inversions in a giga. SF has 2 properties they use to punch back at Cedar Point. SFMM and SFGAdv. The former already having TC, and the latter having the height clearance, and the gap in their lineup. I don't even like Six Flags that much, but I kinda think they're so able to grab that if they just spent money like it was the mid 2000s for one more project.

[@nickasta3400]

Did you already do a list for the top ten still operating coasters that should be rmc’d?

[@AirtimeThrills]

I did but its pretty old. Still, its relatively relevant minus a couple

[@BigDCoasterFam]

An RMC ground up of Son Of Beast? That would challenge SteVe and finally give KI a #1 coaster
