We all know your favorite coasters, but we rarely hear about the coasters that aren't so hot. So what's your least favorite roller coaster?

It would also be good to explain your choice as well.

I'll start:

Mean Streak

I don't know if it was the time of the day or w/e but awhile after lunch at Cedar Point we got on Mean Streak and I got a headache and my heart started like burning, it was pretty terrible. The trims on the lift hill made it pretty lame too.

For me, Hurler at KD. I thought the one at Carowinds was bad, man I was sorelly mistaken.

My 2 least favorite are both at Cedar point.

1. Manits - It broke my feet.

2. Millennium force - One of the most boring things in the universe. It has one of the coolest looking lifts though.

On the contrary Mean streak actually had airtime, and I didn't feel any trims when I rode. Only the first turn was boring.

Runaway Mine Train at Six Flags Great Adventure. It is so painful, I almost broke my neck. That's a kiddie coaster? Don't let the kids ride this piece of crap!

^^ How the hell is MF boring?

Hades at Mt.S**thole is horriblely painful. It gets worse and worse every year because Mt. Olympus has something against maintaining their coasters. But if you can get past that it has great airtime.

Both sides of Gwazi. Way to rough.

Before the new trains that is.

WTF? If anything Mantis would hurt your calf's (which if you have any leg strength you should be fine), Mille is amazing as long as you don't ride the dead middle of the train which even still kicks the crap out of most coasters, and Mean Streak having airtime? I'm curious as to when you rode it because as of 3 years ago, it was trimmed to death and already rough as hell.

Mine would have to be either Mean Streak or Psyclone at SFMM, both just absolutely rough as hell and not enjoyable at all.

Be it known that Legoguy has no (good) taste in roller coasters.

Psyclone at SFMM. That shit was terrible.

I hated EuroSat, Europapark. It was rough, had a way too long lift, and I hurted my head at the end.

The mine train at SFGAdv was really not fun. Mean streak is a little smoother now, but its not as boring as mine train.

Mean Streak for sure, it beat the living crap out of my back. On the pullouts it feels like your spine is getting jackhammered. I tried to hold myself up with my arms to make it less painful, but it didn't work too well. I wouldn't ride it again if someone paid me.

I have to add Mean Streak also, the coaster looked awesome, but as my brother, my roommate and I found out, the first hill was very painful, the seats slapped each of us in the back so bad, that we had to walk it off for awhile. my roommate was done for the day, he was in so much pain. I voweled NEVER AGAIN. sorry Cedar Point, but TEAR IT DOWN !!!

EDIT: WOW RCfanatic you had the same Idea at the same time

I rode Mean streak twice, and both were very enjoyable rides... It could have been just where I was sitting, not sure. I've definitely been on worse though.

Like I said, it might just have been how I was feeling, but that beat me up. However I'm willing to give it another shot just to see if I get "cussed" again :D

Mean streak was definitely the worst ride. ever. I already was getting thirsty, and I had a mild headache. Afterwards, I had a killer headache and a sore neck and back. It was almost our last ride that day (got on at 7:00 PM, park closes at 10:00 PM), but I had to push on for TTD, Raptor, and MF, each for a second time.

You must have been sitting in a good car/train. I've ridden some rough coasters before, but nothing compares to Mean Streak.

Never ridden Mean Streak so I can't hop on that wagon, but hurler was quite the painful ride to me. Anaconda is a pretty close second though.
