| | | Well, I searched but I couldn't find any topics...(except for one thats in the archive)
Anyways, I'm obviously with PCW on this one. It's the only one I've been to. I'm proud that KECO/Taft chose the mountain as the center piece. I like things unique when they're at PCW. The flats are awesome. The coasters are...OK...could be better...but they're still alright rides. The staff are awesome (most of the time) and the scenery (grass, trees, plants) are very well maintained, even on the grass that some of the rides are on. |

| | | I voted for Kings Dominion. It's like a perfect blend of Carowinds and Kings Island. PKD has the rides from PKI and the atmosphere of PC. I love it...

| | | Just walking upto the Carowinds North Gate at 10am and watching Borg flip over the lake, reminds me of that evil song they repeat over and over at TG (can anyone name it lol...). The balance of coasters, the simple yet efficient path design, the revamps we've had, TG the Jet Coaster... sure there's a lack of flats, but there's a quality of 'park' I feel everytime I walk through its midways... Not to mention we've stolen the best rides from a few parks (Stealth from PGA and Flyers from PKI) which has really helped the park. The waterpark revamp doesn't look like much, but neither did Nick Central's last year, which turned into an amazing revamp, I spend at least 30% of my time at Carowinds in Nick Central now...

| | | PKD has the best mix of them, and have the better rides and coasters. good atmosphere. I'd say PKD, but PC is a close second |

| | | ^ Well I think he was just trying to make his point. Some people (like me) just use a few more words than others to make their point. ;)

| | | Well, anyways... I think PCW could have more votes if people were able to actually get to Canada and visit the park. It's a pretty clean place.
But hey, at least I'm not stuck with PGA...;) |

| | | ^ Exacly, most people on TN are farther South or out West so not many have visited PCW yet (myself included).

| | | I know for me it was a difficult choice between the only two I have made it to as of now - Kings Dominion and Carowinds. I have been blessed to be living about the same distance from both parks. And as much as I love the staff at Carowinds, and the scenery....as a fan of the rides, I have to give it up to Kings Dominion. Dont get me wrong, Carowinds has some GREAT rides (love Top Gun, Cyclone, Vortex, and Borg), but when I go to Carowinds, I get the feeling the park is geared more toward the little kid than the older child, or the adult. And, as loving rides entirely, my vote has to be for Kings Dominion. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
