Often when discussing roller coasters, and the parks they are at, heated discussions arise over which is the best. Often times the 2nd best coaster in a park, put anywhere else could very well be a top contender. Join us this week as Sam and Gabe look past the "best" to see what else parks have to offer. 

*Special Note*: Make sure to listen to the end of the episode, Gabe has sent out a challenge to all of our listeners. Your reward is a shout out in our return episode from the holiday break. (if we had merch we would definitely send you some!)

Joins us this week as Sam and Gabe take a look at another couple of surprising coasters, unfortunately not in the good way. Sam brings Twisted Timbers, an RMC that was bit too much and Gabe brings Hydra The Revenge, which couldn't quite live up to his expectations.

Sometimes they have a reputation, sometimes their manufacturer will give you an opinion or sometimes you don't know anything and after a ride it turns you opinion on its head. This week Sam and Gabe take a look at a couple of coasters that sort of gave them a punch in the face right from their blind spot.
