I'd be interested to see Montu go against Alpengeist. My vote would be for Alpengeist. My top 5 favorite looping inverted coasters would be

1. Alpengeist
2. Montu
3. Talon
4. De Javu
5. Raptor

Nitro also keeps getting the golden ticket for being one of the best steel coasters on the planet. Apollos Chariot is unknown to lots of people.

Does what you ride first matter? You should see the rest of the peoples comments, which don't focus on what they rode first.

Nitro is way better. Apollo is probably the the B&M mega coaster with the least amount of intensity. I'd say It's horrible. I would change the edge if I were you, Nitro's theme is better than a historical theme, and if you say Nitro doesn't have airtime, you didn't ride the coaster. Enough said.

Apollo is great but not even close to the intensity of Nitro. I feel the airtime is much longer and stronger on Nitro. Each of the big humps pins you out of the seat for over 3 seconds. The 3 largest humps are insanely scary especially the one that turns at the top. It feels like the train is going to keep going straight and fly off into oblivion! I also think the smaller humps at the end of nitro have much stronger airtime. Although that sneaky last drop on Apollo is great! And yes the Hammerhead turn around on nitro is way better than the helix on Apollo.

I'd pick Nitro, but I have been on it more, so I'll have to get back to BG to ride AC.
