Mr. Freeze's inverted top hat - it's not very intense, but it is scary with being upside down so high in the air with only a lap bar holding you in

Viper's double down drop - a great moment of airtime

Nitro's helix - very very intense

Cobra rolls

Zero-G rolls

Vertical loops - so simple, but still a lot of fun

Not a single element, but El Toro's finale with the highly banked turns and filled with airtime is awesome

Shivering Timbers helix - a fast helix, and although nowhere near as intense as Nitro's, it is still a lot of fun

I may or may not have slightly random tastes in elements. Oh, and I don't know or care if these are all "elements".

 

--Vertical and beyond-vertical drops of any style

--Cobra rolls, vertical loops, and pretzel loops

--Series of bunny hops (American Thunder, etc.). So classic, especially when contrasted with twister elements!

--Classic chain lifts on sitdown coasters, and flying coaster lift hills

--Launches

--Surprise drops (caused by darkness, sudden change of direction, timing, etc.)

--Extreme headchoppers

--Hills with stand-up airtime, and all great airtime hills

--Overbanked turns

--Intense helices (Goliath at SFMM, etc.)

--Any drop or turn on a woodie that provides a great view of the lift hill and first drop (Renegade, Coaster, etc.)

--Theming!!!

1. Zero-G-Roll (Kraken's being my favorite)

 

2. Whatever Maverick did to me twice in the portion after the launch, because that was sooo bad***...better yet, anything that happened on Maverick gets my number 2.

 

3. Vertical/Beyond vertical first drop (Sheikra and Maverick respectfully as the only two I've experienced)

 

4. Pretzel Loops on B&M Flyers

 

5. Goood airtime

 

6. Dive-Loops

 

7. Inverting Top Hat (Mr. Freeze)

 

8. Batwings/Pretzel Loops? on B&M Inverts
