Kennyweird Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 The only one that comes to mind is Top Thrill Dragster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyuk200523 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I would have to say most recently it would be Stealth (Thorpe Park), the adrenaline i got from that was great! Recent Thrill Ride that did the same was Hurakan Condor (sooo tall!) Past adrenaline experiences have to be Hulk opening year Dueling Dragons opening year Nemesis opening year (you gotta remember, i was much younger when all of these were done).

Scaparri Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 The only one I can think of in recent years would be The Voyage. I was just so blown away and rattled from the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjgx Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 The only ride that has ever done that to me is El Toro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oriolat Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Rita: Queen of Speed, since it was my first launched roller coaster. I was not prepared for the intensity of the launch and the overall greatness of the ride. And, for other rides, The Flight of the Phoenix at Terra Mítica. It was my first drop tower and I was really intimidated by the height and the rush going down was sooo intense I left the ride all white and trembling.

dragsterfan420 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 For me I'd say Millennium Force when I first rode, 2001, the Beast when I rode it, as my first coaster in 1995-96, and the Voyage last year(amazing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollerman87 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I have been shaken on a few, but the one I remember was Goliath at SFMM, which was simply because it was the first BIG ride I had ever been on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PURE Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Top Thrill Dragster & Tatsu. TTD was because of the anticipation, sitting looking up at the tower that couple seconds before you launch. Tatsu cause I had no clue that pretzel loop would catch me so off guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I have never "trembled" before I got on a coaster or after I got off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillgeek Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Definitely when I got off X. What a rush that ride is. Now X2 is most likely even crazier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medusa1861 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I naturally shake a lot, like I can't keep my hands completely still, roller coasters generally make me... not shake, I become more calm i guess. Or if by trembling you mean.. just can't walk straight.. Fairly Odd Coaster at Nickelodeon Universe.. because i rode it directly after riding that Avatar ride... so... too much spinning.

odene497 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I'm pretty sure I did after Top Thrill Dragster. And also after Ravine Flyer II, during the flim shoot, anytime we'd take a break I was quivery, a mix of sitting and riding for 20 consecutive rides or so.

Jcoaster Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Only 2 coasters have done this to me and thier from the same park. Kingda Ka for the first time was the most gut-wrenching experiance of my life. The other is El Toro. That coaster was just mind-blowing. I came off saying Holy S**t.

christianscoasters Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 X first time. And also Tower of Doom at Elitch Gardens. Ya, its not a roller coaster, but it scared me sh*tless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElToroGirl84 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I was shaking quite a bit before and quite a long time after riding Griffon the first time. Like I've said on countless posts so far I'm a coaster newbie so to speak so this was a bit extreme for me. The whole 3 second hang really did me in and seriously that first ride was a near death experience. After riding a second time the next day though I couldn't get enough and I ended up riding it almost 16 times by the end of the 3 days I was there.

pacoasterrider Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I'd have to say Storm Runner the first time. I was not prepared at all for the intensity of that launch and the forces (going from sit still to 72mph in less then 2 seconds) just blew my mind. And, I LOVE IT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknGuitar Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 X2...(first time) and Batman at SFMM. Batman just happens so fast, it's awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorddoonga Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 THE ROCKET (former Playland coaster San Antonio-TX, the former home of the Phoenix at Knoebels Grove. I was 12 yrs old.
