Hi guys,
I just got back from Carowinds. I went 4/14. This is a great park, I enjoyed it just as much as Kings Dominion. We got there about 9:15am, so yeah we were there pretty early. They wouldnt let us go to the rides until 10am, so we looked in a few shops and then about 9:45 we went back to the crowd to line up for Borg. I couldnt believe how easy it was to navigate the park, alot easier than KD and thats my home park. After about an hour of being at the park I knew where every coaster was lol. So heres my ratings on the rides and coasters we rode. (Beside the name of the ride is how many times I rode it)
Borg Assimilator- (2) Suprisingly- I really enjoyed this ride, its a great flyer, I didnt find it to be rough at all either(seeing that its a Vekoma) although atthe end on the last 2 corscrews for some reason I got a touch of nausea. 9/10
Vortex-(2) Good standup- just a bit bumpy in 1 part of the ride, but still very enjoyable. 8/10
Thunder road-(1) A little too rough for me, and I didnt get hardly any airtime on this ride, not one of my favs 4/10
Hurler-(1) OUCH Very rough and shaky, this Hurler IMO is much rougher than the KD's version but the thing I did like about this Hurler is that it had great airtime which made me kind of forget about the roughness. 7/10
Carolina Cyclone- (1) I like this alot better than Anaconda, its faster for one and not as rough either, but it just needs a bigger first drop.
8/10
Fairly odd coaster- (1) This is a cute little ride is all I can say
8/10
Top Gun-(10) yes 10 rides- OMG This is my new favorite steel coaster, this ride is so insane, easily the best ride I have ever ridden, I even like it better than BGE's Alpengeist. I found myself riding over and over again, I noticed that I had bacame very addicted. 10/10
Wild Thornberry's river adventure(1) This is nice little ride to cool off on, I got soaked on this ride. 8/10
Well thats it, The staff @ Carowinds were all very nice and kind I will definatly be going back soon!!
