Demon at SFGAm when I was 4. It was the ride that got me hooked on roller coasters.

 

Demon for me as well, though at California Great America - at the time it was still Marriot's Great America and had the theme song playing in the queue.

My first Arrow Dynamics coaster was Lightnin' Loops at Six Flags Great Adventure, in 1978.

What a strange creation those Arrow shuttle loops were.

And all those stairs to walk up each time, lol!

Iron Dragon at Cedar Point, but should have been Tennessee Tornado at Dollywood. I was a big baby when I started getting into roller coasters, and I didn't ride it at time. But then I went to Cedar Point and everything changed.

My first Arrow was the now defunct Python shuttle loop at SFA. It would have been my first inverting coaster, period, but it was closed that day I went to the park and so I got dragged onto Mind Eraser instead.

Python at Busch Gardens Tampa - also my first inverting ride. My first "home" coaster was the Corkscrew at Rocky Point Park, but I never was brave enough to ride it until after I'd been on Python first.

Hmmm. I want to say Drachen Fire, Loch Ness Monster, or Big Bad Wolf back in 1997 when I was 8 years old? So long ago that I can't really remember what my family and I rode first so it's 1 of those 3.

Mine was Corkscrew at Michigan's Adventure. Back then the park was still called Deer Park Funland. You should have seen the trees that covered that park back then. Shame most of them were leveled by a bad storm a few years later.

For me it was the Canobie Corkscrew. It was my second looping coaster (the Rock "N' Roller Coaster was my first) and I still enjoy it to this day.

My first Arrow was Demon at Six Flags Great America in 2006 when I was 9.

I'm surprised I haven't seen this one mentioned but mine was Space Mountain (Omega side I believe) at WDW in 1984. My first non-Disney Arrow was Anaconda. Maybe I didn't have much to compare it to back then but I think it actually was pretty fun when it first opened (1991). Not so much nowadays.

My first Arrow was Demon at SFGAm. This ride was about an hour or so before the ride got stuck upside-down on the second loop. But I was more terrified by the unexplainable ejector airtime on the first drop than the ride getting stuck.

Orient Express at Worlds of Fun was, not only my first Arrow coaster, but also my first major coaster. It absolutely terrified me at the time, but it was responsible for starting my love affair with coasters. RIP old friend!
