@chickenybeefytaco D. H. Morgan Manufacturing started building coasters in 1996 & purchased Chance Industries in June 2001 to create Chance-Morgan Coasters, Inc. The other Morgan coasters are Mamba (Worlds of Fun), Phantom's Revenge (Kennywood), Steel Dragon 2000 (Nagashima Spaland), Steel Eel (SeaWorld San Antonio), Steel Force (Dorney Park) & Wild Thing (Valleyfair).
kinda sad how such a nice boardwalk could have such lame rides. I only see two interesting rides, the ferris wheel and the pirate ship ride. The builders should have really look at boardwalks like Wildwood, Santa Cruz, Seaside Heights, Myrtle Beach and see what rides real piers should have. More rollercoasters, at least thrilling, the fireball, those 'tower of terror" rides, the skyscraper, the slingshot, the cyclone, the gravitron, rock n' roll, Santa Monica Pier really missed out on fun rides.
instead of having such a huge lift hill for such a small drop, just make it small instead of adding these depressingly slow *corkscrews*. or just make it thrilling (for kids) by making a 50 foot lift hill and adding a 50 foot drop or something... don't ride this if you went to sixflags once...
How can this thing go backwards? It wouldn't have enough momentum to make it all the way through the track. Also, the anti rollbacks would stop it from going back down the lift hill.
@1998Suprah LOL thats exactly what I said before riding it. It's a whole different experience when your actually riding it. Trust me if not , go to santa monica beach and ride it (:
Given what they had to work with, a good job. I still miss POP's Sea Serpent. At one time you could take a photo from south and above the Venice Pier and, by angling it to catch POP and the Santa Monica Pier, have a picture that had EIGHT roller coasters in it. Sigh.....
I've been here before...I rode this and screamed sarcastically lol...Its been a while since I've been here...If I'm right they havhe Whac-A-Mole correct? Because I think when I went here 7 years ago they had it...But I love this place
This coaster was built by a company called Morgan. I know another roller coaster built bu them that is wayy funner. It is called Steel Eel. It is at Sea World in San Antonio, Texas.
Obviously this roller coaster is a very old roller coaster that was probably built 1) because of a very very limited budget and area to build on, 2) back in the early 80's 3) is just like any other small boardwalk/pier roller coaster you can find. Minus a the few random boardwalks/piers that have bigger roller coasters. Also you do realize this is the most popular roller coaster in movies? its been shown in scenes of over 40 movies. There for its a great Coaster hands down.
The world is FULL of irony! The guys that made this are the EXACT same SOB`S that built The Steel Dragon 2000, Wild Thing, Steel Eel,Steel Force,MAMBA and Superman Ultimate Escape! They had FUN bulding Steel Dragon, THIS piece of shit was just to make a few extra bucks!
The most exciting part of this lame thing was the rough spot at the end thet shook the train. The rest of the ride had almost no sirtime, laterals, etc. Overall, all it does is take money from your pocket.
I have seen the THAW (Tony Hawks American Wasteland) Recreation and in the centre of the 2nd helix is a Bowl so you can do an Air to the coasters rail to do a Rail Stall which is very coolio.
Every video I see of this coaster someone asks to go backwards. Dont they know thats impossible? Or is there something I'm not getting since Ive never been on it?
@crazyforcoasters My friend was just joking around with the crew because it isn't much of a coaster & the only way it would possibly give you any type of thrill would be to go backwards. ;D
That was actually a fun little ride. I rode it in August. If you sit in the back seat you actually get a little pop of airtime on the first little hill after the main helix.
This coaster probably has something special that allows it to hold expensive camera equipment, maybe because it is a kiddie ride, which would be a good choice for movies and TV
@wwwCOASTERFORCEcom no offence but that coaster was lame a better one is
