Kinda miss Greezed Lightnin, tho I think Lightning Run is a worthy replacement. I like how the name is a slight homage to the former.

I kinda miss the pegasus from the Efteling. It wasn't a thrill coaster but it was my first woody :cry: , so it was kind of a childhood memory or something like that. But his replacer, Joris en de draak (George and the dragon), is really awesome :D

Sky Rider at Canada's Wonderland, Cyclone at Six Flags New England and Big Bad Wolf at Busch Gardens Williamsburg were all great. I don't remember BBW as much as the others, but I remember thoroughly enjoying it.

I miss Sierra Tonante in Mirabilandia! My first and only ride on a wooden coaster! Although without removing it we wouldn't have the fantastic i-speed!!!

I-Speed is a good ride... In my opinion it was with it... But I reslly don't know what was there before it so I guess I can't really say if it was a good replacement or not :P

Here is a non-widescreen video of sierra tonante, tallest wooden in Europe, I remember that was extremely shaky and scary!!! Great adrenaline and super fun layout with endless headchopper effect!!!

I think it was a good thing that Hurtyourknees got removed.

Been a while since I had a chance to ride Colossus at SFMM. And now, the reworked version makes the original impossible. First big woodie I had a chance to experience. They say you always remember the first time...

^^ Yes, it was a bad coaster but imagine if RMC had gotten a hold of it, an incredibly steep drop into the creek would've been awesome
What are these for?

One ride I completely miss is The Rodeo at SFNE. Was taken down for no reason. (For people who don't know, it was a western style break dance ride). Another ride I completely miss is That vintage wild mouse at Canobir lake park, I forgot the name but it was replaced with Xtreme Frisbee
