What is your Top 3 coasters you have been on anywhere in the world ?
Mine would be
1. The Hulk @ Islands of Adventure
2. Manta @ SeaWorld Orlando
3. Nemesis @ Alton Towers
want to go round some of the 6 Flags parks over in America. They are meant to have some pretty crazy ones

Spiderman is one of the best rides i have ever been on. but cant be classed as a roller coaster. but it is truly EPIC !
Sheikra is brutal.. really scared the piss outta me. now that its floorless too makes it even better.

Spiderman is AMAZING. The 3D one in Orlando, right?
Amazingly, my list is the same as yours.
1. The Hulk @ Islands of Adventure
2. Manta @ SeaWorld Orlando
3. Nemesis @ Alton Towers
Although saying that, Kracken is a really good ride as well! Went on that new 'Rip Ride Rock It' in November as well, that's quite good! The initial climb is actually vertical, it feels more though as everyone we who went on it (who we were with) said they felt like they were slipping out their seat!

Hulk

Gwazi
Edited my number 3 to Gwazi. Wooden Roller coaster in Busch Gardens. Me and my old man pissed ourselves the whole way round. Feels so unsafe and like you are coming off of the track at some points.
