The Sooperdooperlooper at Hersheypark when i was 6. It was also my little sister's first looping roller coaster too this past summer when she was 5. IMO, its a fairly good choice for someone's first coaster with inversions.

I don't remember. Never thought about it. i guess it would be the greased lightning at SF Astroworld in houston. It had to be that i suppose because that was my homepark and that had to have been the first looping coaster there.

Got to have been colossus at thorpe park, uk

from what i remember it was the first season of it

As a guy from the UK it's the only thing that counts as being good,

the in-line twists are the strangest but the coolest

The late Looping Star (a Schwarzkopf) at Bobbejaanland, i liked it but for some reason i still hadn't lost my fear of inversions yet, it took me many years before i finally rode an inverting coaster again (at Walibi Belgium), but that time i overcame my fear and even became a rollercoaster enthusiast!

The Vekoma at Boblo Island....waited over an hour.

 

Went to the back of the park and the Sansei Sky Streak was a walk-on. I rode the Streak about 10 times that day....with no desire to ride the Corkscrew again.

 

Wishing Boblo was still around.

That would be Lightning Loops in 1978 or 1979.

Texas Tornado at SFAW (AKA Thriller / Zonga).

 

I remember when I rode it for the first time, the support beams were sitting on plywood and my vision blacked out during the double loop off the lift hill.
