Mine must be riding good old Tornado again at Särkänniemi, Jetline at Gröna Lund (which was such a surprise!!), riding the only 10-looper (best rolls ever ), first B&M flyer & divemachine and Nemesis 8)

I love ROLLS!
Colossus

That is still way better than my english was for 2 years ago, but thanks to this hobby, I'm getting the best grades in english now
-
There is no coaster I hate or wouldn't ride (I'm a real coaster enthusiast), but there are coasters I would stand in a long line for, or ride again... Any coaster is still better that sitting at home looking at pictures of it.
-
I'd eat the dirty sock to get to ride any bigger coaster 50 times
Would you rather go to school on christmas or go to scool for 3 weeks of your summervacation?
-
That is probably a prototype and it's not at an amusementpark...

I could never stay inside 1 whole day
Are you going to school tomorrow?

Kanonen being closed half of the day I was at Liseberg in May must have been my biggest accident of 2005...
-
^but that has nothing to do with the ride experience Except for the man who died...
-
Not bad! But the queue and exit is not right...

Tornado @ Särkänniemi
What's your favorite B&M?
-
Well, what was said earlier, you can't blame the company for providing what the parks want! If there's a clone, its the park's fault, not the company.
B&M has more variety than Intamin. B&M- 7 Intamin- 4
Cost cannot be compared between companies. And a lot of companies get the supports and track filled with sand to reduce the noise. This is expensive and jacks up the price.
With element variety, what elements does Intamin have that B&M doesn't?
Intamin is creative in how they get the coaster going. B&M is creative in how the coaster moves after it gets moving.
and its spelled beautiful, not beautyful
When I said variety I meant forces, not elements. Elements Intamin has that B&M doesn't: Flying Snake dive, The Speed Monster thing, Top Hat, Heart-line-roll (not 0-G), Overbanks, LAUNCH,....
And I'm pretty sure I speak better Finnish and Norwegian than you do

I have always liked Intamin better.
Intamin
-lots of different coaster types
-usually more forces and variety than B&M
-more unique elements
-the really big ones
cons:
-lots of problems
-some of them gets rough after a few years
B&M
-smooth (sometimes too smooth)
-huge inversions
-always very good-looking/beautyful
cons:
-their layouts are often too much the same (loop, dive-loop, 0-G, cobra...)
-they're very expensive
-
I heard that the busses are not a good way to travel in the UK. We used trains and I must say that ALLways ask where to go!

First Drop
What is your favorite animal?

This!
What is your favorite kind of weather?
-
Why are they putting those ugly things on the side of the track?! It's like on SheiKra's immelman, I hate it
-

Yeah it was quite bumpy, but I didn't get hurt and it ended up being one of my favorite coasters It just made the ride wilder and more extreme
-
This thing is so tiny Looks forceful...
-
best:
X, extremely wild
Balder, sick airtime
Viper, awesome doublecorkscrew
Colossus, 4 slow heartline-rolls in a row
Desperado, goes VERY close to the walls in the tunnel
Kanonen, slow roll
Tornado, underground heartline-roll
worst:
Scream, the interlocking corkscrews are pretty boring, but everything before that is awesome!
Xcelerator, no forces on the overbanks, but the launch and top-hat totally makes up for it!!
Ninja, lifthill
-
I like B&M invert supports and symmetric support-structures
Which gives more feelings?
in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!

I never get that feeling :?
