i like the phoenix but every time i go on it you never stay in your seat your always in the air and its a little bumpy especially at the end but either way its a good coaster but not as good as twister =]
@llovecamping04 that is the point of the phoenix!!! beleive it or not back in the day that was the way all up and down wooden coasters were. i looove both of the coasters, plus i think its fun to almost fly out. LOL.
NO this is a wooden roller coaster. it has regular lap bars. it doesnt have individual lap bars like the twister it has the 1 lap bar across both passengers wich lets u have more airtime!!! i beleive that the steel coasters are the ones with over the shoulder not woodies.
It depends on what you like. Phoenix is fast, smooth and loaded with airtime. Twister is rough-and-tumble with sudden changes of direction. Each one is good for different reasons.
I ALWAYS went to knoebels as a kid and I'm finally going back pretty not far from now! Since I was small I was always afraid of the big coasters, but this time there's no doubt I'm going on them. I'll do both but I was wondering which one is better, Phoenix or Twister?
I rode this ride at Playland Park (near Ft. Sam) as a kid in San Antonio. I remember it would lift you out of your seat the whole time, and you got banged around if you didn't hang on ! It was a pretty damn rickety old coaster in the late 70's when I last rode it. I'm glad they saved this bad ass coaster ! Thanks for sharing !
lol i just came from there yesterday and it was my first ever roller coaster ride ever in knoebels and i rode it 8 times and yeah i agree its the best ride lol lmfao if u listen around 1:35 in the vid to like 1:40 u can here some kid yell mommy
I love that tunnel in the beginning

This is one of the best coasters. You get that weird feeling in your stomach through the whole ride.

@jducharme Does the Phoenix have the things that go over your shoulders along with seatbelts and the thing u hold on to?Sorry if I made no sence

Personally I think this the best coaster in the world. It has the best drops and you get that dropping feeling the most when your on it.
