coasterstud522 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Are there any rides that your really excited for, and you get on it for the first time in your life. It's really fun, and you enjoyed the ride so much that decide to ride it again. Then you ride it for the second time, and it just doesn't have that same "spark" to it. This has happened to me before and I wanna hear about your experiences.

generaleclectic Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Your mom comes to mind. Wow... Do I sense a little animosity here? Ninja at SFOG... It was GREAT FUN the first time... Every ride since has been a lesson in ubiquity other than the fact that it's the only Vekoma that I have ever ridden that let me retain ownership of my knoebles.

freestylenut Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I wasn't "excited" to ride it, but mine would have to be Alien Encounters in WDW. Me & the wife (who were dating at the time), came out of there CRACKING UP...mainly because we both had our mouths open with that tube thingy sprayed at us during the climax (and the recorded voice says "I had my mouth open")... ...the second time several months later...well, let's just say it was kinda corny...the "spark" was definitely gone.

I guess for me it would be rides like Stealth--those Intamin launchers with high-hat elements and that 's it. Once is always enough when it comes to those.

coastercrazed49 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I talk about this ride a lot, its Cyclone at SFNE. The first time it was really fun and filled with ejector airtime. The second time I went on it, it was really painful and jerky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFAfan#1 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Your mom comes to mind. DDDDDDDDDDDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN that was a good one Batman: the ride at SFMM was so fun the first time and since there was no line I rode it again, and it was still fun so I rode it again and I hated it so much. Its a fun ride, but riding it 3 times in a row was a waste of my time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digidude18 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I agree with SFA fan, Batman the ride at SFMM isn't nearly as exciting as it was the first time I rode it. Are there any rides that your really excited for, and you get on it for the first time in your life. It's really fun, and you enjoyed the ride so much that decide to ride it again. Then you ride it for the second time, and it just doesn't have that same "spark" to it. This has happened to me before and I wanna hear about your experiences. Brandon "I searched and didn't find anything like it so don't yell at me" Paul Tell us what your experience was. It's no fun for the rest of us if we can't hear about your experience.

DCody Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I was excited to ride Dragon Mountain and it totally delivered...weird, woodsy, underthemed, loooooong Arrow goodness! But then I went on it two more times and suddenly needed a Tylenol and a nap. Definitely not a coaster you want to marathon. (That's probably true of anything that's not supersmooth.)

coasterstud522 Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 The Carolina Cyclone. It was my first coaster that went upside down. Being so inexperienced with coasters, I was immune (I guess) to the shake, rattle, and rolling that is Arrow. Now, I only ride it when people what to ride it with me, but I don't like riding it.

Rusty Nail Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Superman The Escape, fun back in 1997 but now I almost always skip this coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrX8991 Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Mean Streak. The first time I rode it, I was in the front row. It had just rained, making the ride faster and smoother (other than splinters getting thrown in our face on the last turn, but whatever). I was with my brother and we both agreed that it was actually pretty fun, even if it wasn't intense. So later that day, we decide to ride again. The track had dried. As soon as we hit that first turn, it was pain all the way to the station. It went from about a 7 out of 10 all the way down to about a 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Clear Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I'm with DCody, in fact I think she was sitting there when I said that the first time I rode Dragon Mountain I thought it was awesome. The second time, meh. The third time I took a nap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fry Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Yeah, Dragon Mountain certainly came to my mind when I saw the name of the topic. It was more when I sat down with Kimmy, going "what the hell, I'm battered, bruised and tired, but I'll just do it once, what's the harm?" and then I get told... "yeah... we need you to ride three times..."... ugh... lol... By the end of that, I'd have been glad never to see it again, haha! Hydra was pretty quick to loose charm as well, it was already grating on a second run, a third and I'm not sure I'd have liked it too much!
