Villain, and it's the best wood coaster in Ohio (though I haven't ridden screaching eagle).

I like the Flyer at GL. It was kinda rough though. Otherwise I would go with Mind Eraser because it goes over S:UE and gives you a great view of that ride.

My favorite Geauga Lake roller coaster is definintly the batman which I think is now the Thunderhawk?

My close second is the Villian.

No TTD420, Thunderhawk was Serial Thriller, "The Dominator" is Batman.

Joe E... Screechin' Eagle easily beats Villain. No question here. It better be saved! But that's another topic for another board.

My favorite is/was Batman, but I'm a sucker for the old Serial Thriller, too. Batman has some great elements, and incredibly comfortable seats (I'd have fallen asleep had it been for the loops and all - so comfortable!) I found Villain to be not quite of the standard I'd expect out of CCI, but to be fair, I've only done it once. And if the trains of Big Dipper would get a little more leg room, I'd enjoy that coaster a lot, too.


Any similarity in name is purely coincidental.

Dominator (BKF) is the best hands down. But i also hasve to give some credit to x-flight, it was awsome, it felt like my face was gonna come off!

Big Dipper is the best ride at GL in my opinion.

Dominator(BNF), is the best at Geauga Lake. Until they build that rumored Hyper, Dominator remains my favorite at Geauga Lake. I think for the name, they should've maybe painted the ride because it still has that Batman Look. I Also think they should've left Serial Thriller alone with the name instead of renaming it Thunderhawk. Don't get me wrong thats a good name but I think Serial Thriller was better for that layout.

Serial Thriller!

*cough* JUST KIDDING...what a crap duplicate ride.

I have a little respect for double-loop. What a classic it is.

Big Dipper is also a nice coaster. What is all this stuff about the restraints? I can't remember them. Are they a safety concern or something?

Villian and Batman have to be the best. Screw the new names. It will always be Batman to me!

B&M did it again in designing Batman: Knight Flight. I usually like wood coasters, but this ride is amazing. My only problem with the ride is that is new name is the "Dominator". How lame could you get?

Well you have to remember that CF named it and they didn't have a whole lot of time so they recycled some names. It came from the tower at Dorney Park. Also - Shawn Meyer - because Six Flags used that name I believe they lost the rights to 'Serial Thriller' and were forced to change it, as was the case for the DC Comic rides and Mind Eraser which they have used numerous times on their SLC's.

Definately has to be the Villian and Dominator.

However, I do have a soft spot for the Double Loop since it was my first coaster.
