Invertalon Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 They don't matter to me at all. Nor do normal credits. I ride what appeals to me, so I commonly skip almost any boomerang, SLC, kiddy coaster, etc... I would probably have 15-20 more credits if I did not skip so many rides lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltopper39 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Unless it's a walk-on situation, I simply don't care enough to ride them. This. I'll never wait for a kiddie credit unless it's unique. I'd much rather spend time waiting for major attractions especially if it's a new park for me.

Barge84 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 They've never mattered to me. I'm more of the quality over quantity type. I've even started skipping boomerangs, wild mice and mine trains, depending on the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackdude101 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Because I have no shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azza29 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 The credit doesn't matter to me, but I won't skip a ride just because it's in the "kiddie" category. Kozmo's Kurves and any Flying Scooters are great, even though they're aimed at a younger audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jray21 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I usually don't care for them, but they are amazingly fun on TPR trips when you do a takeover with a bunch of adults. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrozooka0 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I ride "kiddie" coasters cause you can't judge a coaster by it's size. Whizzer at Great America is amazing and Millennium Force is boring. I'd ride Little Dipper here at GAm 200x than go on Mean Streak ever again. You can't say a ride is boring/bad unless you've been on it. This guy said the exact reason I ride kiddie coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmullin Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I've found that Woodstock Express at Canada's Wonderland has some airtime, yes, I'm pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Jizzman Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Because people want to have massive coaster dic....I mean coaster counts? Unless it's a TPR take over where it's goofy and fun, I'd rather re-ride the better ride in the park instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaellynn4 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 When I've done trips with my ex-fiance, I managed to get her really into counting credits as well (it was in her competitive nature), so hitting up the kiddie coasters was a lot more fun since we'd do them together. My new girlfriend thinks my hobby is really cool, and we've incorporated parks on our recent trip (Lake Compounce, SFNE), but she's not into counting credits, so when I hit up the Great Chase at SFNE, I had to do it all by my lonesome .It's definitely a lot less fun doing it by youself and getting weird looks from parents. I don't think I'm going to really go after them unless I'm with a large group of enthusiasts or there's absolutely no line. I'd like to have the credits, but not THAT badly.

alpengeist04 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 People ask why I ride the kid coasters, I say why not. Though I would never borrow someone's kid, if the ride required it. ...Unless it's family of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankeeman311 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I won't go out of my way for kiddie credits but if I'm by myself or with enthusiasts and the line is short I'll ride them. It honestly allows for funny stories and memories in the right environment. The last 2 I rode me and my friends had the first one to ourselves and the latter coaster had me and my friend trying to fit in the same car at over 6'0 each. Our legs took a beating on the turns but it was one of the most laughable moments of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
