DoinItForTheFame Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 My personal favorite inversions go to the double barrel rolls at the end of Outlaw Run. Simply amazing!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agerikson Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 The Flying Snake Dive on Storm Runner takes the cake here. Honorable mention to S:UF's pretzel loop and Gatekeeper's wing-over drop. This takes the cake for me too. Each time I ride it, I try to fathom the physics of it but I can't. It's like the airtime is sustained from the ascent, through the heartline and then magically into the dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiCraft2011 Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Montezoona's Revenge's loop. It's quick and forceful, which translates into fun! Apparently, these shuttle loops are quite rare, so I was happy to experience one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Funny this thread popped up as I was having a conversation with a friend last night. Favorite is a pretzel loop, but Id also go with a good zero G roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I have to go with the zero-G roll. It doesn't matter the style of coaster or the manufacturer, as these inversions are consistently my favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grsupercity Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 double roll on a SLC, followed by a zero g roll on a B&M invert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I still maintain the zero g. That being said, I really enjoy B&Ms big loops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Running_Buddy Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Of the coasters I've ridden, it would have to be Shockwave at SFoT. So many G's in the front seat! Visually, Moonsault Scrambler's inversion was gorgeous! Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I'm not into inversions at all. But Outlaw Run's 153 degrees banked turn is probably my favorite because there's airtime on the way out. By the way, my least favorite inversion is In Line Twists on B&M wing coasters.

Cyrbuzz Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Not sure on favorite but the pretzel loop on Manta at Sea World Orlando was the most forceful I ever felt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Full Throttle's snake-dive-thingy with lap bars only in the back car. Such a cool feeling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Turbo Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 The Norwegian Loop on Fahrenheit is probably my favorite inversion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFChris Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Schwarzy loops...particularly Montana Infinitums. YOLO's loop with the stall at the top. Such a cool feeling. Whatever inversion #3 on Scream! is called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickstroberg Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Any good, forceful loop on a Schwarzkopf coaster. Note-worthy ones being Thriller/Texas Tornado BEFORE six flags butchered it, Mindbender at Edmonton Mall, and Laser(defunct) at Dorney; first time I ever went grey on a coaster. Fahrenheit's norwegian loop is awesome as well, the slight swerve on the entry, before diving down into the element, creates a pretty cool sensation. Also, on the exit of the element, I got some crazy-weird airtime while the train rotated and dove towards the ground. My personal favorite though, has to be the combination of zero-g roll into the flying snake dive on Stormrunner. Theres this weird floating feeling through the whole element, followed by the sensation of the train diving away from you, while your body tries to continue rotating and traveling forwards. Love it. Takabisha(?) has this sweet looking element called the "banana roll", and its looks like it would ride pretty smoothly/incredible . Its like you grabbed on to the "head" part of a cobra roll, and bent it upwards. Or maybe like an inverted top-hat, but rather than a vertical entry/exit, its a GREATER than vertical entry/exit. Hope to experience it one day. Any of you guys ride it? My overall favorite element of ALL, isn't an inversion... I LOVE me some stengal dives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 ^Oh storm runner's heartline - flying snake dive combo is a great on too! I love how they are taken fairly fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickstroberg Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 ^Yes it truly is phenomenal, the first time I rode it (opening season) it caught me so off guard. I honestly felt like the coaster was trying to throw me off/out. FANTASTIC element there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcdude Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 My favorite inversions in general are: Zero-G Roll on any B&M Coaster Pretzel Loop on any Flying Coaster Any Loop on any Arrow Looper For particular rides, I like (no particular order): Batwing on Afterburn Cobra Roll on Alpengeist Double Corkscrew on Demon (CGA) Corkscrew on Flight of Fear Heartline Roll on Hydra the Revenge (aka JoJo Roll) Top Hat on Mr. Freeze Reverse Blast Dive Loop on Mystery Mine Dive Loop on Manhattan Expresss (only good part of that ride IMO) Second Corkscrew on Riddler's Revenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraroc Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I like the Cobra Roll and Norwegian loop of Fahrenheit, the loop on Sidewinder going through reverse, and the loop on SooperDooperLooper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterer22 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Since there are a lot of inversions I like, I'll try to shorten the list to only three. -The only flying coaster I've been on is Superman UF, but I absolutely love the pretzel loop on that ride. I can't even imagine how insane Tatsu's must be. -Zero-G rolls are always awesome, and I especially love Bizzaro's at SFGAdv. -Finally, I am a sucker for good old fashioned vertical loops, especially huge ones. Dominator's loop happens to be my absolute favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
