Wood You Believe? A New Best Wood Coasters List.

Wednesday November 11, 2009

It's been some time since I last updated my list of the best wooden coasters in North America. I expanded the list to include ten woodies, and I made some changes at the top.

For years, Boulder Dash at Connecticut's Lake Compounce has held my number-one position. In fact, the ride and my best coasters list was mentioned on the series finale of the television show, The Gilmore Girls. Sorry Lorelei, but Boulder Dash moves down to number three on the list. Want to see what coaster took its place at the top of the heap? And what new ride to the list snuck in at number two? Well, head over to my updated Best Roller Coasters feature. And if you want to join in the list making, you can share your own picks for the best coasters or click on "Comments" below to voice your thoughts.
