Ninja at SFSTL. It was my first big coaster and my dad MADE me go on it. Regrettably for him, I made him ride it 5 more times that day.

Mine was "Turn of the Century"at Marriott's Great America in Gurnee, Illinois. It has been "Demon"since 1980, the park has long been Six Flags Great America, but it was definitely my first coaster with inversions!

Demon at CGA (It had just became PGA at the time). I remember it well, as tears were streaking from my eyes, we hit the first loop and it literally "clicked" and I realized I loved these things and wanted ride more and more.

I thought it was Revolution at Six Flags Magic Mountain, but since Windjammer Surf Racers closed in March of 2000 and my first visit to Six Flags Magic Mountain was in the summer of that year I guess it must have been Windjammer.

My first inversion was LisebergsLoopen at Liseberg, Gothenburg, Sweden. Must have been in the summer of 1982, I was 10 years old and got hooked for life. And I wish there were more Looping Stars to ride!

I actually attended the grand opening of the first modern looping coaster, the Corkscrew at Knott's Berry farm. I ended up on the news doing the Charleston while waiting in the four hour line just to ride a 30 second ride. Those were the days. Yes, I'm old.

My first roller coaster with an inversion was Sooperdooperlooper at Hershey Park. By all recollection it was also my first ever roller coaster.

My first inversion coaster was Montu at Busch Gardens. Not a bad ride to break me into Ill also never forget the date because very sadly it was the same day that Princess Diana passed away
