timetrial3141592 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 That teeny hill after the overbank on SROS at SFNE. The sidehill on SLCs (after the roll-over) Any bit on B&Ms that consist of the train banking 90 degrees. Bad Goliath's helix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfriendly Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 YES! I luv the loop the loops on Loch Ness. That's my fave coaster. I wanted to ride it when I was a kid but never got to (parents didn't believe in "carnival junk"--that's what they called amusement parks). FINALLY after 20 yrs I got to ride it last yr. I was so happy I cudn't stand it! I know it's not a big mega coaster, it's really a simple coaster but it's the principal of the thing wanting to ride it ya know. Kinda like say "ha ha" to them. (plus I just think it's pretty & a beautiful coaster too, it was just super smooth after all these yrs & very xciting the loop the loops & the LONG tunnel helix--very kewl! ). If it weren't so crowded, I wudda rode it a few more times! *SIGH* maybe this yr...... . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfie Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Any flatspin/roll on a B&M invert - my legs go flying ALL over the place when I'm not prepared. It's so awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo210 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Yes! LNMs loops are great inversions, the hangtime in the loops makes you feel like you going to hit the other loop! I wish companys would make more of these interlocking loops. guess we have to settle for interlocking corkscrews . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ccron10 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 If you're thinking of the Orient Express at WOF, according to rcdb.com it closed in 2003 and it didn't say anything about it being moved so nope! Looks like it was scrapped. My favorite element (also my first) is the Jojo roll. As the train flips over your body pushes against the restraint.

PKI Jizzman Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Vortex's Corkscrew have really started to grow on me, in the back seat, you whip through the first, on the second, you get awesome hangtime on it! In the front, you are thrown through them! In the middle, you get awesome hangtime on both! 1.MF's 1st Drop 2. ZeroG Rolls 3. Corkscrews 4. Bunny hills 5. Cobra Rolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMAN962 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Favorite: Airtime Least favorite: intense helixes of pain and suffering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjgx Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Top 3: 1. Pretzel Loop 2. Top Hat 3. Dive Loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Upsidedown Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Favorite element is a Batwing on a B&M inverted coaster. Second favorite element as big drop like MFs main drop, that falling off a building feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStitch626 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Hmmm favorite element? I'd have to go with the zero-g-roll. That or the Immelman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillrideseeker Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Im thinking my favorites are a vertical loop and a cobra roll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceDragon Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 hmmmm... tricky 1) inverted vertical loop, so much fun; slowly rise, quick whip over the peak then an (what seems to be) slow decent before speeding up to complete the ride. 2) a line of inline twists (Colossus' inversions 6-9) 3) the last inversion of Colossus, barely 4ft off the ground. it always feels like your gonna hit the floor, a great scare. 4) an inverted corkscrew, those things make my stomach go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yankees15 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 My favorite element would be the top hat. I love the airtime you get on them, especially Storm Runners. My other favorite would be big, steep first drops like on Nitro, El Toro, and Storm Runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra_roll06 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 oh damn this is hrad lol well my top 3 are (in no particular order) loop cobra roll zero-G roll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewheeled999 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I'm not sure why, but I like vertical loops. Maybe it's the g-forces pushing you in at the bottom, maybe it's the feeling that you're going to fall out at the top, where it slows down.

Xtreme-me Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 My favorite would have to be either Riddlers 2nd corkskrew, Tatsu's Pretzel or X's first raven turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satoshi Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 i would build more taller loop like its gonna reach to TTD tallest point if i was now a coaster designer! yeah for all people wanna have good airtime in a loop for 5 secs! ( it can't be true maybe sorry just in my imagination.....) in a real world i gotta love vertical loop not circular shaped one..... B&M shaped one!
