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

apollos chariot is smoother and has better airtime and more length

Really? The loading was slow? I always think the loading is fast, especially for great adventure. But apollo did not have any line at all except for the seat lines when I went, and Nitro does. The secret might be to go to nitro early in the day, although I have also ridden it later in the day and the line wasnt bad. Compared to waiting for el toro and kingda ka, nitro’s line is almost like a walk on. Except when those evil platinum flash pass people take a second ride on the row youre waiting for, then it takes longer.

I simply choose Apollo because this oldie is a goodie. I know it’s got fewer camel backs than Nitro, but for being the first hyper coaster by the same company, it’s pretty impressive. Plus, I really like the view you get when you’re on the lift hill.

Nitro was everything Apollo had (with a better kick of excitement), but…. I HATED waiting in line. The amount of time they took dispatching each train was ridiculous. That’s my only complaint

Peter, you just verified what I was thinking about for a while. Nitro is overlooked by some people because it is in the same park with el toro and kingda ka. I think Nitro is much better than bizarro(sfga) by alot, though. Apollo stands out because it is in a park with 3 other roller coasters- one that is an old but still ok arrow looper(loch ness), one that is a tall and fast but somewhat painful on cobra roll invert(alpengeist) and one that is tall and fast and steep and awesome but is too short(griffon, although I do like it better than apollo). Nitro is in a huge park with more than 10 other roller coasters. I love Nitro, though. Its only equal in sfga is el toro.
