Your First Schwarzkopf Coaster?

[SingleRiderCam]

^ I know. I have only ridden three (Montezooma's Revenge, Revolution, and Scorpion) and I know there is more ahead of me like both Mindbenders and Olympia Looping (giving the best examples)

My first was Revolution with the OTSRs.

 

However, my first non-botched Schwarzkoph was Montezooma's Revenge @ KBF.

Whizzer, SFGAm.

Doppel Looping at the CNE in Toronto when I was 12. There's no better feeling in the world than riding a kickin' Schwarzkopf with Judas Priest blaring from the Grandstand.

Mine would be Mind Bender at SFOG. To this day it is still my favorite Schwarzkopf. Yes, I have ridden Shockwave. I prefer this one over it (just barely, though). Biased? Maybe.

My first Schwarzkopf coaster was Viper at Six Flags Astroworld followed by Greezed Lightning right after.

Laser Loop @ Kennywood. I still miss that ride.

[Hercules]

Laser at Dorney.

[Yellow Jacket]

This one was mine.

Mountain Express, at Magic Mountain, and we waited well over an hour. For a Wildcat. And then we went and hunted some saber-tooth tigers for the clan meal. (See, because it was a very, very long time ago... )

[GayCoasterGuy]

And the Schwarz was with it! (Spaceballs reference for all you cool people. And yes, I know the movie was actually "schwartz").

Or those of us old enough to remember when only 5 movies came out a week! Quality over quantity.

 

5 a week sounds like a large quantity to me... Unless you mean 5 a year, but then that would be a crazy over exaggeration as there were way more than that even back then.

 

Turns out, my guess wasn't too far off: http://www.the-numbers.com/movies/year/1985

 

there are about 5-10x more movies released a month now: http://www.the-numbers.com/movies/year/2012

 

Nothing is perfectly correct when it comes to this sort of thing, but gives a good idea just how much "stuff" we have now. Movies, tv channels, etc.

Not only was Willard's Whizzer at CGA my first Schwarzkopf ever, it was also my first 'real' coaster (non-kiddie)!

SooperDooperLooper was my first loop AND my first Schwarzkopf.

[jfruge]

I rode Shockwave at SFOT.

[Mechanic]

Willard's Whizzer at Marriot's Great America CA.

[ScottyDoesKnow]

Whizzer at Six Flags Great America. Still a great ride to this day, especially since the trees have grown in so nicely. Also a great "date" ride... if you know what I mean...

[RCjunkie]

Wild Rails at Valleyfair.

[simon8899]

Whizzer at Six Flags Great America

 

Hope they'll keep it till 2015 - I might hit it then....

[Hockeydad]

I thought I only had two under my belt but after going to rcdb I actually have Whizzer, Greezed Lightnin', Wildcat and King Kobra.

[BJ KoasterKooK]

I believe it was Scorpion at Busch Gardens Tampa.
