@layna20284: The Beast is pretty rough and usually gives me a headache, but I'll still ride it every time we go. It’s one of those rides at Kings Island where you just don’t know how much longer it’ll be around. I did see an article where retracking work is being done so that gives me hope that it will be around longer. #rollercoaster #woodenrollercoaster #kingsisland #ohio
How about Mean Streak at Cedar Point? Shook the lens out of my glasses.

I rode it several times. You only have bragging rights if you rode it before they removed the loop. That was the true survival test. 😂

Didn’t ride that one, but the last time I rode the Beast I thought I’d have to see a chiropractor

Fun fact: my step dad (who raised me) was in the carpenters union and was apart of building the Son of Beast. He took pictures from beginning to end. I have the album. He has since passed on. Back then, for every 80 hours they worked, they got 4 free tickets. He worked 80 hours a week. We had so many tickets we were giving them away. I was 16 when this was built. He actually rode it without the lap bars in it on test rides.

Rode it with the loop. Multiple times in one day. Heck of a ride, but I could barely walk the next day 😂

When it was new it wasn’t bad at all. The racers were rougher but the year before it was torn down it was terrible.

I think the later stages of vortex were rougher than son of beast.
