What was your first B&M Coaster?

Hair Raiser at Ocean Park.

[Christopoll]

OzIris this year. Great ride, managed to go on it 3 times.

[canobie#1]

The Incredible Hulk coaster fall of 2004.

[VinTheAttendant]

Batman: The Dark Knight in 2004; that was the year I decided to stop being scared of coasters. After riding Batman, that was when I really felt up to the task of taking on bigger and tougher coasters, and I have B&M to thank for that.

Raptor at Cedar Point during Halloweekends 2012, it started to rain when I was riding it!

[TheMaxster]

Iron wolf was my first B&M, and it was not a smooth one like it should have been.

[UrbanLegend]

For me it was Montu at BGT. Also the first coaster I rode that had a 54" requirement. That was a good day for me.

[MayTheGForceBeWithYou]

I think it was Riddler at Magic Mountain, but it may have been Batman. I rode both of them that day, but I forgot which was first.

[bludowise68]

first was Raging Bull and then Iron Wolf but then it moved to a different park to six flags america

so for now Raging Bull been riding it front row lots of times.

[ImmelMatt]

Iron Wolf back in 1998. It was rough, but was not yet at the nightmare it would be a few years later.

[boardwalkbullet91507]

Being from Texas where there is a B&M or two at every park, my first B&M was actually Kumba at BGT during our family vacation. That coaster also broke my deadly fear of rolleroasters, so of course after that I was like, "Let's go ride Sheikra and Montu!" Then it rained, so we left the park and never went back. So here I am like 5 years later living with all these regrets an an urge to re-visit Clearwater and Tampa again!!!

[KBrylczyk]

Batman at Great Adventure. It's still as intense as ever, probably even more so. That thing managed to give me a blackout last time I rode it this year.

[Fil31zRt]

It was either Batman or Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America, and I can't remember which one it was. It was sooo long ago!

[redfoot12]

Alpengeist for me as well

 

This thread got me thinking about the rumor about how Drachen Fire was almost a B&M project.

[gisco]

Alpengeist at BGW. It was one of the first big coasters I had ridden and is what got me started on visiting parks to ride coasters!

[Athletekim]

Green Lantern at SFGAdv this past year. It was my first big Steel coaster that had more than 2 inversions.

[X2coasterfreak]

If I could remember correctly it was Batman the Ride at SFMM.

[nitro4ever]

I think my first B&M was Medusa/Bizarro at SFGAdv. I could be wrong, I don't really remember.

[Hilltopper39]

Mine was probably either Raptor or Mantis at Cedar Point. Cedar Point was one of the first parks I ever visited outside of my normal Kings Island, Kentucky Kingdom, Holiday World home park rotation and my first trip there was in 1996 when they opened Mantis. I think I rode Raptor first but Mantis and Raptor on the same day were my first two B&M's.

[Mechanic]

If I could remember correctly it was Batman the Ride at SFMM.

 

What would it be if you couldn't remember correctly?

[Coasterbp]

I'm going to say mine was Batman at SFGAdv. 1992? 93? Somewhere in there.

Vortex at Carowinds

[screaminkid2005]

Batman: The Dark Knight at Six Flags New England! Such a fun little floorless coaster!

[BaMiTsPaT]

Batman: The Dark Knight at Six Flags New England! Such a fun little floorless coaster!

 

same here! It's funny because I was terrified of it at the time.

[Bubba]

Batman at SFMM. Almost thought it was Vortex at Great America but I forgot I was tricked on Revolution & Batman as a kid.
