Since the site has recognizable coaster sections now, lets talk about what photos actually show the ride best.

The photo angle from outside the cobra roll is usually money. You get train, track, and faces all in one shot.

LSM launches are smoother but hydraulic launches had violence in a good way.

Quoting the last point: no, thats exactly the thoosie brain rot I mean. Millennium Force is not an airtime machine and thats fine. Its about speed and scale, why is that bad?

The best coaster photos have people in the train reacting. Empty train shots feel kinda lifeless.

Steel Vengeance is great but the line and locker mess made me grumpy before I even sat down.

Photo approvals are a good idea tbh. Otherwise every page turns into blurry station pics.

That holding brake is still one of the best crowd pleasers in any park. People scream before anything even happens. Also sorry but that take is wild.

Front row for views, back row for drops. Middle row is for when the grouper hates you.

I still love boomerangs when they run decent. They are simple but the backwards part gets GP every time.

You guys confuse painful with intense. Those are not the same thing.

A little roughness is fine. jackhammering is not personality, its just bad maintenance.

No way Magnum is better than most gigas. Its historically important but come on now.
