Hriscay Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 The Viper at Six Flags Astroworld. I don't care how easy that ride was, i loved it. I miss the final turn still to this day. Always wonder if it was close enough to the grass for my had to barely graze it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schrecken Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Mine was the old hang and bang over at SFA (it was Adventure World back in those days, and the Mind Eraser was brand new, and not quite as rough as most of these coasters have become as they have aged), sad to say. If the Python (Arrow shuttle loop) had been running that day in June of 1996, that would have been my first, as I would have been dragged onto that one first by that family friend I was with. But the Python did turn out to be my 2nd coaster with inversions. So at least the Mind Eraser served its purpose back then - it got me into coasters and over my severe coaster phobia.

Cmbgo12 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Canobie Corkscrew... The oldest surviving looping rollercoaster. Its a 1975 Arrow Double-Corkscrew, and after riding it I didn't go on another looping rollercoaster until I was 9 (I first rode it when I was 6). Oh, if you ever go to Canobie Lake Park I recommend sitting up from on it. Then you'll only suffer slightly less brain damage. This is what Hell on Wheels looks like after being referbished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TroyWD98 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 California Screamin' and I thought that loop was so awesome back then! Now, loops don't do much for me. (unless it's Full Throttle's that is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
