People don't walk by because of their past experience. Outside of coaster enthusiasts, who complains about Corkscrew? The general public walks by because they're on their way to Magnum, Millennium Force, Power Tower, etc ... not because they think it's painful.

I think Walt makes a very good point. I have no clue why coaster enthusiasts complain so much about a rough ride. It's a roller coaster for christ sake! It's not supposed to be a limo ride. The very people who should have the most fun riding these things seem like they can't take a little rough and tumble action. Why? I think Corkscrew has one of the best airtime hills of any looping coaster ever built. The hill before the loop is it's signature, along with it being the first to loop three times. It is still a good ride, and I have a lot of fun riding it.

The CPlaya 100--6 days, 9 parks, 47 coasters, 2037 miles and a winner.....LoCoSuMo.
So you see kids, we should just start over. No one on the face of the earth likes any of these rides. We just need a ton of mega loopers and 1000 foot tall coasters. Who needs to warm up on the smaller coasters?!! We're all hard asses, right?
And I still highly suggest to try riding the Corkscrew in the very last seat if you havn't. Then come on here and complain about it. I still think it has incredible airtime and it is alot smoother in the back than in the front.

Coasters? i thought those were those things you put under drinks? ...am I on the wrong site?

So let me get this straight. Your grandma is in her 40's, which means your mom is probably in her late teens to early 20s, which makes you....5? ;)
