DJeXeL Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) Top Gun (Yes, Top Gun) @ PGA opening year '93. Edited February 12, 2013 by DJeXeL
Meteornotes Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Batman at SFMM the year it opened. Â dt
DCA_Chris Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 I was about an inch too short to ride Top Gun in '93, which caused me to have the second biggest fit of my life. First being the time I was too short to ride Big Thunder about four years earlier.
Condor Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Batman: The Ride at SFMM in either 97 or 98. I didn't really get hooked on coasters until I rode Riddler's Revenge a year or two later. It's funny when I think back on those years, when I truly felt Viper was better than both of them....
brockboehm Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Either Incredible Hulk or Dueling Dragons...can't remember.
Double0Kevin Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Either Top Gun or Vortex at PGA. I'm pretty sure it was Top Gun though.
thrillseeker4552 Posted February 13, 2013 Author Posted February 13, 2013 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. Â I stand corrected, Shockwave was my first. I completely forget about that coaster. Â This doesn't count. Shockwave was an Intamin, wasn't it? By B&M, I meant Iron Wolf and later - not the rides they created along with Intamin and Giovanola, like Flashback and the Stand-Ups. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
Brassinthegrass Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Medusa at Six Flags Great Adventure. It was also my first major roller coaster, and the reason I always ride it first when I get to the park in the morning (plus the line is quite short so you can re-ride usually 3 or 4 times...)
Invertalon Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I believe mine was Raptor at CP.... And still remains one of my favorite rides of all time.
BJ KoasterKooK Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Alpengeist in 1998, at a time when the 2nd half of the ride rocked almost as good as the first...still a very special coaster to me.
mike541x Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I'm gonna have to say it was Alpengeist, Howl-O-Scream 2009. My friend and I rode it at least eight or nine times before closing! Good times.
TPDave Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I think it must have Been Nemesis Inferno. Shame!
Cyrbuzz Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Kumba was my first Beemer back in 1996, such an intense ride back then and today still a beast of a ride. That was also the year I first visited Cedar Point and my coasting infatuation began.
154bmag Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 CGA's Flight deck It was top gun at the time
b&mforever Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 Batman the ride at Six flags Great Adventure back when it was still all black and not yellow.
Voxelmatic Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) My first two were both inverts, first being Talon, and second being Batman at Great Adventure. Edited February 14, 2013 by Voxelmatic
SingleRiderCam Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Inverted: Silver Bullet at KBF Â Non-inverted: Riddler's Revenge at SFMM
MFJorts Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 I'm pretty sure it's Superman: Krypton Coaster at SFFT.
Coaster_Fanatic Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Pretty sure it was Apollo's Chariot at BGW back in 2007. I've been hooked to B&Ms since then.
