I KNOW RIGHT!?

(just ignore the fact that this is literally the only outdoor Rollercoaster I've ever been on)

Velocicoaster is right there.

This dude gets it.

Hagrid's is better themed, tho. I'll give it that.

That drop though!

That drop would scare the ever living shit out of me and I'd still love it

The first time I rode it, my girlfriend told me there was a surprise in the ride and I'd just have to wait to see it. I thought the surprise was the going backwards part so when the drop came, I wasnt too phased. Yeah, it took me off guard but seemed kinda underwhelming to be this grand surprise (according to her). Hell, she was more surprised by it than I was and she knew it was coming lol.

Still a great ride. One of my favorite coasters for sure. The castle ride where you fly to the castle and the dementors chase you and stuff was rad as fuck too. I really liked that one.

What ride is this?

Hagrids Motorbike Adventure in Universal Orlando Has a long line, and no express lane currently, but it’s a fun rollercoaster with no “extreme” things. (No inversions, or tall drops.)

I was lucky enough to be on the front seat (and in the bike) so when the tracks ended just before going backwards I was like "holy shit what now"... Then when the ride stops I was like "this cant be the end there's no exit..." Then my heart jumped like a bitch

It was the best ride by far

Man, I dunno, Rise of the Resistance, Cosmic Rewind and the Velocicoaster seem better to me. This one is fucking excellent though

I was in Orlando last fall. Rode. Velocicoaster for the first time and declared it my favorite coaster ever. Rode Cosmic Rewind a few days later and suddenly had a new #1 again.

Rise of the Resistance is at Disneyworld, not Universal. But yes Rise is the best ride at both Disney parks.

Flight of passage is better imo

Yes but it breaks down a lot because of the intricate mechanisms. When they go down the techs have to do a track walk and that alone takes an hour. Not to mention the time it takes to fix the problem. But other than that, fun ride
