Had I never ridden Velocicoaster, I would’ve been super confused as to why you ranked it above Maverick. After riding Velocicoaster, I’d have to agree with you.

[@frisco557]

Same. When it opened, I didn't think it could be better than Maverick. Started asking other enthusiasts at CP when they're wearing Velocicoaster shirts and it was split which they thought was better. Now that I've ridden it, it's Velocicoaster hands down. That's with only 20 rides on it vs 100+ on Maverick at my home park.

[@TheofficialJay_CECandgames]

I think I’m riding velocicoaster next week

[@bunobeatz5737]

Velocicoaster is the greatest launch coaster ever. Probably because of the type of seats they chose, your feet don’t touch the floor with a lap bar. That has a lot to do with all the forces you feel

[@trevorwarren853]

It may be just me, but I didn’t feel that velocicoaster was as intense as the maverick. Loved it, but Maverick is still number one.

I came into VelociCoaster with super high expectations and was STILL shocked at how amazing it was!

[@Titter2]

I've never ridden a roller coaster before, but I was on vacation and my cousin invited me to go to Universal where she works. I decided to go big or go home and rode Velocicoaster first. That was the most intense minute of my life. I loved every second of it.

Disagree on the ejector air time on Full Throttle - you get some nice floater for 2 seconds before the breaks at the bottom of the hill slam you back into your seat. One of the least pleasant roller coaster endings I've experienced, which is a shame because the launch and hang time through the loop are amazing.

[@joppe98]

you HAVE HAVE to try Ride to Happiness, best ride I’ve experienced

[@Wesley-76]

Can't wait to ride VelociCoaster someday! Also, Ride to Happiness and Time Traveler look nuts And I'd love to ride Taron, it looks a lot like Hagrid's, which I love I love launch coasters in general, it's such a great way to spice up a ride. Don't get me wrong, I love a good anticipation-building lift hill, but I'll take a good launch over a lift any day of the week Here's my multi-launch ranking so far: 8. Slinky Dog Dash - Only got to ride this once, but I don't see myself ranking this above any others in this list so far. Still a pretty fun ride, also very smooth. 50/83 7. Tigris - The only SkyRocket II I've ridden so far. Tigris is a fun, quick package that doesn't feel like any other coaster I've ridden. 3 launches forwards and back, some good floater to ejector airtime moments, and some nice hangtime are crammed in to this short ride. Could easily ride this over and over, but it's at BGT, which has too many other great rides to check out! 37/83 6. FireChaser Express - The best family coaster I've ridden. You get 2 launches: 1 right out of the station, and 1 later on after the show section, shooting you backwards. These are somewhat stronger than the launches on rides like Slinky Dog Dash. This ride also has a lift hill, turns, and lots of hills that may or may not give you floater airtime. It's such a fun ride that really helps give Dollywood an amazing lineup. 28/83 5. Revenge of the Mummy (Universal Studios Florida) - Everything Taylor said applies to me; great ride! Doesn't really feel like a multi-launch, as only the hill launch feels like one (the others just feel like "pushes" like you find on something like Escape from Grigotts) but whatever. 26/83 4. Ice Breaker - Didn't think too much of this when I first rode it, but the more times I rode, the more I liked it. The launches aren't too strong (most in this list aren't) but they're fun. You get some great ejector airtime as well. Fun ride! 17/83 3. Cheetah Hunt - 3 launches, only the first one is jarring, but the other 2 still give that awesome sense of speeding up. This ride has a weird layout with "hills" and lots of low-to-the-ground turns. Throw in an inversion and the "windcatcher tower," and you get a long, fun ride. Definitely do at night in the front if you can! 13/83 2. Copperhead Strike - Underrated imo. Everyone likes to complain about the weak launches, but I just think of them as a way to get the ride up to speed-- a complementary element, not a main feature. This ride isn't a one trick pony either. It brings 3 awesome hangtime moments, several ejector airtime hills, and low-to-the-ground twists and turns that are decently intense. Let me ride this, Fury, and Intimidator all day! 10/83 1. Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure - This ride is so much fun. Theming, story, bike trains, SEVEN launches, spike, backwards section, "surprise" (don't want to spoil for those who don't know), turns, and speed. Sometimes I wish the conveyor belt would just keep going so I can ride again without getting off! Oh, and definitely ride at night if you can, it's not hard when the park closes at dusk and the wait is still 30+ minutes... 8/83
