coaster junkies Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 We are coaster junkies, we live in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. We love to goto Cedar Point. Have been going there for about 18 years now. We were first riders on the "Force" as we call it, also on "Gatekeeper", 20th year anniversary rides on "Magnum". We also went to Kings Island were first riders on "DiamondBack". We are grandparents of 4 boys, we have a new grandbaby on the way, will it be girl or another boy, we will wait and see.

vette2006c5r Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 HI there, Recently moved to MN, so Valleyfair is my new home park. Have yet to make the visit. The Wisconsin Dells is close too. Came from the east coast, so many of my coaster rides have come from there. I've always enjoyed roller coasters, and looking forward to being part of this community. Outside of this hobby I enjoy cars and beers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarlyP Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Hi everyone. I'm Karla and from SE PA. I'm dead center in between Hershey and Dorney. I've been going to Hershey for as long as I can remember and prefer it over Dorney. Comet was my first followed by the Sooper Dooper Looper the next year. I'll date myself and say those first rides happened back when Hershey had only those two and the Trailblazer for coasters and it was years before any other ones were added. Currently, I'm a sucker for floorless and Fahrenheit. I signed up here a few weeks ago, but I'm horribly shy and it takes me awhile to start posting. I actually came across these forums when I googled something like "go to theme parks alone" to see if I was the only one who does stuff like that. (I'm happy to see that I'm not.) I've traveled for work and planned weekends around parks. But Those times I had the "I'm in the area for work, I thought I'd ride some rides" excuse. I've been to my 2 local parks alone, but never traveled for the sole purpose of going to a park solo. Which is something that I'm in the process of doing right now. The plan so far is a day at Kings Dominion and I'm debating throwing in a day at Busch Gardens since I'll be relatively close. I'm going to stop right there, because I can go on and on. No one I know is that excited about amusement parks as I am, so it's really nice to find people that I can talk to about stuff like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jylerjdonovan Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Hi! My name is Jyler! I used to be really active on Forums when I was in middle/high school. Now I'm 25 (almost 26) at looking for a new outlet for my theme park hobby that no one else seems to understand. I'm currently an AmeriCorps NCCC member, I travel around a lot - so my home park changes depending on my project. I'm originally from Kentucky where I grew up going to Kentucky Kingdom, then SF Kentucky Kingdom #sideeye, Paramount's Kings Island and then just regular old Kings Island after that. I've been on 131 coasters to date with my favorites being Tatsu at SFMM, Sidewinder at Knott's (just recently rode this and it was incredibly unique) and Mystery Mine at Dollywood. I'm a sucker for a great dark ride, Arrow suspended's and being the friend that warns my friends not to ride that Vekoma head banger. They never listen.

The_Green_Clarinet Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Hey everyone, my name's David. I was born, raised, and live in Cincinnati, Ohio, right in King's Island's neighborhood. Even though I've made regular visits to KI my whole life, I'm just starting to become a roller coaster enthusiast as my geeky friends are introducing me to the community. My favorite coaster is Dragster, with Diamondback and Maverick tied for second (though KI's Vortex will always have a special place in my heart). In the not-too-distant future, I hope to hit up King's Dominion and Carrowinds. Also, I have at least 31 credits, but I need to double check as I may be forgetting a few. Outside of coasters, I'm a huge astronomy nut, I'm currently studying astrophysics in Cincinnati, and I like to play video games. I'm excited to be a part of the forums, meet all you people, and explore this hobby! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiftThrill Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I'm LiftThrill and I live in San Antonio, Texas. I'm not well traveled when it comes to roller coasters and amusement parks but I've been to Lagoon, DisneyWorld in Orlando and SFFT (which is my homepark). I'm going to SFOT in less than a month (and I'm super hyped for that).

DILinator Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Long time lurker, first time poster! I've been watching TPR POV videos for years, and have the complete set! My kids love them as well! I've loved roller coasters my whole life, dating back to the mid 80's. My favorite coaster currently is Fury (I refuse to acknowledge the silly numbers), and my favorite woodie is The Voyage (barely, over El Toro). One of my bigger claims to fame is having ridden Drachen Fire at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, and I actually really liked the ride! I've ridden over 200 coasters, but in recent years (for a while now actually) my ability to go on coaster trips has been dramatically lessened, due to having four kids over the past 11 years. Now, the oldest ones are starting to get into coasters themselves, so let the fun begin again! I'm looking forward to continuing to lurk, and also getting into posting here and there, as situations dictate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanSm1l3r Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Hey everyone, name's Dan. Alton Towers is my home park (might as well be, not really been to Fantasy Island that much), and favourite coaster is a tie of The Smiler and Stealth. Been behind the scenes of both, along with a few other coasters, coaster count is over 70, with credits from Orlando, France, and UK. Some of you will already know me as being part of the Project Towers: NL2 team. I'm here to keep everyone updated on that, and get involved in some discussions too!

starcastler Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Hello, I'm starcastler from Massachusetts and I've ridden around 25 coasters. My favorite coaster is the original Six Flags New England Cyclone, which has been taken down. I wish that there were more wooden coasters. I purchased the original NoLimits program and am enjoying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
