ytterbiumanalyst Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Hmm, well, I'll exclude both Silver Dollar City and Celebration City on this list, and oddly enough, I apparently haven't done this since my teenage years. Worlds of Fun: Detonator (1996) Mamba (1998) Six Flags St. Louis: Batman (1995) Mr. Freeze (1998) Boss (2000) But that will be corrected this year: Tsunami Soaker - SF St. Louis Goliath - SF Great America Wildcat - Azoosment Park Safari Coaster, Spider, and whatever else is new - Bell's Also, not a ride, but last year we went to Dinosaurs Alive! at Worlds of Fun, which was its opening year.

Cullvion Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Roller Coasters: Thunderhawk (Michigan's Adventure) That's it, seriously. I always go to parks on years they don't add anything new so there's not many people who are there just to experience it and then clog up the rest of the park. So I honestly almost never go on roller coaster's their opening year. Except, this year I will have more as I'm going on the Goliath at Six Flags Great America, Banshee at King's Island, and the Firechaser Express at Dollywood, so then I'll have 4 coasters I've been on during their debut season! Thrill Rides: Lakeside Gliders (Michigan's Adventure) Shoot the Rapids (Cedar Point) Same as above, I almost never go when a new ride debuts for crowd reasons.

Khat26 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Kumba- Made me an entusiast at the tender age of 12. Still my favorite coaster Montu Sheikra Cheetah Hunt Hulk Dueling Dragons Mummy Orlando Rip Ride Rockit Dania Beach Hurricane- Awesome! Gwazi- Great it's opening year Raptor, Cedar Point Mantis Wicked Twister Cheetah, Wild Adventures- Underrated. It was recently retracked and kicks all kinds of ass I think that's it. I was lucky to grow up in South Florida and to have close family from Toledo. Thanks for reading everyone. Kris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnome Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I coincidentally hit both Sheikra and Griffon in their inaugural years. Superman at SFDK is also another to add to the list. The rest were all in my home park, or close enough that I could hardly consider adding them to the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronWolfman Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I haven't ridden any coasters in their opening season, but I rode SpinCyle at Silverwood in 2013 for its opening season and I will be riding Elitches' new flat ride Brain Drain later in the season since I didn't ride it last Saturday when I went for opening day.

Swede Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 1988: Stand Up @ Skara Sommarland in Sweden. It was a Intamin stand-up roller coaster and almost gave me a concussion banging my head from side to side. It was re-located to Canada in 1994 and is still operational at La Ronde, Montreal under the name Cobra as I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
