gk Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Screamin' Demon (Arrow Shuttle) at Kings Island in 1977, when I was ten. Â It was also my first coaster, period. 2nd was Racer.
Théo the little french Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 It was one week ago, at Walibi Rhône Alpes: the famous Vekoma's Boomerang!!  That was great, I loved it! It was not rough, only fun!  Shall I make a TR? (there's no other TR than the one for the 2003/5 french trip ansd the park's changed!)
raptor6 Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I don't exactly remember my very first coaster with inversions (either Corkscrew @ Cedar Point, double Loop @ Geauga Lake, or Corkscrew @ Geauga Lake), but I know one of the very first coasters that went upside down: RAPTOR! I rode that sucker in its opening year of 1994 at the ripe old age of 6 (OK I was almost 7 at the time but not quite). I think that I might hold the record for being the youngest person to ever ride that B&M masterpiece. I had the perfect storm of being so tall at such a young age in addition to being fearless. Check out the signature.
Rct3man777 Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Well... Colossus at lagoon... What? It was the second coaster I had ever been on!
dandaman Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 As far as I can recall, Rock 'n Roller Coaster in 2000.
Rousfv Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 My one was the Wild-Boar at my homepark - BonBon Land Wild-Boar
Big Dipper 80 Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Mine was Scorpion at Busch Gardens Africa. That thing freaked me out the first time I rode it.
SFAfan#1 Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 When I was 8, I stood on my toes so I would be tall enough to ride Jokers Jinx!
thrillgeek Posted July 27, 2008 Posted July 27, 2008 Jeez.....everyone's 1st inversion coasters are so good! How come mine had to be a relocated SLC???
dammie16@vt.edu Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Super Dooper LOOOOOOPPPPEEEERRRR!!! (hershey) Â When I was 5 and I'll never forget b/c I kept saying "I rode it 5 times when I was 5!" Â Which for my parents was probably annoying as hell lol
ChrisCrowder Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Mine was Corkscrew at Alton Towers  :O  There are rumours that they might be taking it down! http://www.towersalmanac.com/index.php?show_story=349
rollin_n_coastin Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 Woohoo Dragon Mountain at Marineland..I was 8 years old then and the theming still isn't done Pictured Center: The infamous Bowtie that no one expects, Arrow's first I think? Pictured top: First two loops after the first drop.
YJG(Ride On) Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 The first roller coaster I rode that has an inversion is Corckscrew at Cedar Point when i was sevn years old.
All Clear Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 Loch Ness Monster. It was only my second coaster, my first being BBW.
Troll Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Mine was Corkscrew at Alton Towers  Mine was the corkscrew as well - unless you include air because i dont know if it actually has any proper inversions in it.  Andrew
