This is a very hard decision as all the options listed in the poll look to be very promising rides. I CAN'T CHOOSE! But I guess I am going to say Tatsu, because the two Flyers that I've been on (X-Flight and Stealth) were really not that great...and this will be California's only Flying coaster when it opens, will most likely be B&M's most adventurous Flyer installation to date, and I just simply HAVE NOT been on a B&M Flyer before!

It's hard to say Tatsu because we haven't seen a layout or any pictures yet.

I think this thread is a little premature. How do we know all the parks have made thier announcements yet?

I'm going with SFMM on this one with their new custom/terrain flyer. I have yet to see pics of it but i think it's going to be awesome.

Patriot. Not many people realize that this thing is 20 ft. taller than the B:TRs and just five feet short of Montu. It's going to exert awesome forces, including airtime. It's the right size for the park and it has no mid-course. What's not to love?

I think I'm going to wait until everything is actually built and some reviews of the rides come in. It never fails that something that everyone thinks is going to be great turns out not to be so, and something that doesn't seem like much turns out incredible.

I say you can never go wrong with a woodie. And seeing that Holiday World's current woodies are amazing, I'd say that the Voyage will not lack thrills. So, I voted for Voyage.

I've ridden the B&M Flyer at SFGAdv, and I wasn't a fan. The pretzel was fun but otherwise, I'll take a Vekoma flyer. So, I can't say I'm excited for Tatsu, plus there are no pictures of it yet.

How about changing the title of the thread to "What are you looking forward to most" then people can add their input with more peace of mind.

RCT fan you read my mind. I'll take the Vekoma flyer @ Geagua lake over the B & M @ Great America any day. It's just more exciting.
Hades is pretty awesome, so The Voyage should be even better.
I would put a write in vote for ex. Everest.

Holiday World + Monster woodie with insane airtime, tunnels and 90-degree turns = my pick

Of course, this could change when Tatsu's revealed. I'm dying to see what SFMM came up with for a terrain flyer...

I'm sure Patriot will be a good ride, but this thread is asking which of the 2006 additions in the lineup will be the best. I really don't think Patriot stands a chance against the others. Honestly. Sure it's 20 feet taller than Batman The Ride...and I'm pretty sure we all realize that. It's not big news. A lot of other inverted coasters have more inversions than it, are taller, faster, and have more wilder (or introduced new) elements to it.

Again, as I posted in the other thread similar to this, the question SHOULD be, "Which new addition are you most excited about?" That way you're not comparing apples to oranges.

I picked Goliath anyway. Not just because it's my homepark. That's just the icing on the cake. I've never ridden a B&M Hyper before, flyers bore me, Patriot looks like a weak addition, and Thunderhead is the epitome of woodies TO ME.
