What was your first B&M Coaster?

[thrillseeker4552]

So I made this thread for the pure reason of curiosity. What was your first B&M coaster?!

[thrillseeker4552]

For me it was Silver Bullet at KBF.

[Voxelmatic]

Talon at Dorney. <3 that ride!

[andybarnes84]

Kumba, built when B&M were brave!

[Vekoma_Man]

Batman the Ride @ Six Flags St. Louis

[cfc]

Alpengeist at Busch Gardens Williasmburg (my first inverted coaster, too).

[tiger01]

Nemesis at Alton Towers. And what a ride that was!

[CoasterGuy06]

Great White at Sea World San Antonio.

Top Gun at CGA, still one of my favorites. Short and sweet with a grey-out helix.

Georgia Scorcher several years ago. Such a great way to end the Stand-Up coaster era. Short, sweet, intense, smooth, and to the point, it sure is one of my favorite coasters of all time.

Not 100% certain, but probably Batman:The Ride at SFGAdv

[Her0ofLime]

^^ Same, nice short-ish ride. Definitely good suited for the area.

Kumba at Busch Gardens. Opening year...I was terrified as I didn't like coaster much back them. That ride is pretty much what changed me into a real coaster enthusiast!

Nemesis at Alton Towers. It was a very busy day and we visited with friends and they pestered and pestered me to ride it, me refusing all day and eventually I gave in and not looked back since.

Batman the Ride @ SFMM

[Ben Burnett]

Apollo's Chariot. Such a great one too.

Demonen at Tivoli Copenhagen - more punch than most B&M coasters due to its compact layout, still one of my fav B&Ms as most of them lack Gs for my taste...

[DougMJr]

Raptor at CP. Had a great ride on it too. It ran very very well that day.

[Top Thrill Dragster]

Alpengeist. Rode it opening year.

[dippindotsguy8]

I'm 90% sure it was Montu, but there's a chance it was Kumba. Those two coasters were my "gateway" rides into the enthusiast world, as they were the first two big/intense coasters I had ever ridden.

I'm pretty sure mine was Shock Wave (stand up) when it was at Great Adventure back in the early 90's...can't say I was overly impressed.

Raptor @ Cedar Point. July 10, 2006

Dragon Khan in 1999. To be honest I was terrified of going upside down and my biggest ride til then had been Stampida. But my friends decided to ride Khan, so I thought "join the queue with them and then ditch them last minute!". Boy my plan went wrong and I ended up trapped in last row. I'll never forget that first ride, and that was what definitely got me hooked for life!

I stand corrected, Shockwave was my first. I completely forget about that coaster.

Great Bear, August 2005. I had ridden my first SLC Great Nor'Easter a couple of weeks before that and I couldn't believe the difference between a B&M invert and the SLC.
