Want to see the roller coaster I got on last week?

[Crossblades]

This was one of them. The green one

[mooglebunni608]

did you throw up after? :O

[rubah]

That looks fantastic. was it painful?

[edit-- this is the best one I have ever been on-- It's The Mamba at Worlds of Fun in KC, MO It's not particularly tall, but it is fast.]

[Crossblades]

did you throw up after? :O

Nope. I don't throw up on roller coaster rides



That looks fantastic. was it painful?

Nope. It was a really fast ride though. It went 128 mph in less than 3 seconds

[Nominus Experse]

Ahhh damn, I wish I could of gone with you. I used to hate rollar coasters, but ever since two years ago, I cn't get enough of them.

That one looks pretty intense, and as such, I think I would revel in that one.

[Shoeberto]

Where was that at?

I've been on some of the coasters at King's Island. The Beast (was the longest all-wooden rollercoaster, I think?), some somethingorother, and another somethingorother that was all indoors that was :up: except for the literal two-hour wait.

[eestlinc]

man, i haven't been on a good roller coaster in years!

[Shiny]

This is my favorite roller coaster so far ("Hulk" in Orlando, Florida):

Crossblades, what is that roller coaster called and where is it located? I am very interested in getting on it.

[Jojee]

SCARY T_T

I don't like roller coasters ^^

[Medi]

Is that roller coaster the Kingda Ka at Six Flags? I love roller coasters, but not extreme one like that. :p

[GooeyToast]

C'mon, that's a total copycat of Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point. :rolleyes2

[edczxcvbnm]

My favorite rollercoster was destroyed. It was Shock Wave at Six Flag Great America. I loved that blue death trap. 3 huge loops followed by a few corkscrews a double loop and some more corkscrews. It was truely awesome.

[Markus. D]

my faveorite coastr (that I have been on) is the movie world superman escape.


lovely. 200km in 2 seconds <3

[starseeker]

My favourite rollercoaster is Nemesis Inferno at Thorpe Park.

[Shlup]

My favorite is X at Six Flags Magic Mountain.

http://www.joyrides.com/sfmm/photos/x2.jpg

The first drop you go upsidedown, and then face down. I thought I was going to pee everywhere.

[Topcat]

The only thing similar to that in the Uk is Stealth although it's only 200ft high however it's still fast i think its 0-80 in 2 seconds:eek: Quite possibly the best ride i have been on.

This is a great video i found, its of Top Thrill Dragster last year when it failed to go over the tophat and the passengers were stranded for 10-15 mins waiting for an engineer to push it over the edge! Scary stuff.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/Crossblades/Picture611.jpg

I saw that one on Discovery. They were sending some crash test dolls up with it and it didn't reach the top and fell down, like many times. :D It was a bit scary :(

[Endless]

This summer, I've been on the Thunderhead (http://www.negative-g.com/DW/DW2004/DW-2004-2.htm) in Dollywood. When I got out of it, I was feeling lightheaded, and my legs seemed too light.
More pictures (http://www.negative-g.com/DW/DW2004/DW-2004-3.htm)
And more (http://www.negative-g.com/DW/DW2004/DW-2004-6.htm)

I didn't dare go on the Tenessee (http://www.negative-g.com/DW/DW2004/DW-2004-17.htm) Tornado (http://www.negative-g.com/DW/DW2004/DW-2004-18.htm), though.

I went on this one, it was excellent!

[Medi]

Actually, I love any inverted roller coaster. For whatever reason I feel safer on that kind, plus it seems more thrilling to me. With that said, where is Thorpe Park so I can go on Nemesis Inferno? :D

[Misfit]

<a href="http://home.ntelos.net/~curtist/images/bgw04-lnm.jpg">Loch Ness Monster</a> in Busch Gardens is excellent.

I do however think the <a href="http://webcot.free.fr/wds/photos/rock07.jpg">Rock 'n' Roller Coaster</a> in Disney World is a blasty blast. :D

[Crossblades]

Is that roller coaster the Kingda Ka at Six Flags?


Yes it is:D

[boris no no]

http://www.mouseplanet.com/more/altontowers_oblivion.jpg
Oblivion at Alton Towers is awesome, that pictures just before you get dropped vitically down...its scary ^^
http://www.coastersandmore.de/rides/air/air09.780x560.jpg
Thats Air at Alton Towers too ^^ I was on it when it broke down on its 2nd day :D It was fun ^^

[bipper]

This was one of them. The green one

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/Crossblades/Picture611.jpg

Is that wild thing at Valley Fair? If so - it is about an hour from where I live. Looks like the old wooden coaster to the right as well. Looks a bit to 'wild for me though' :(

[Shauna]

SCARY T_T

I don't like roller coasters ^^

Yes. ;_;

[fallen_angel9000]

Man.... my friends would've had to force me onto that roller coaster. it must have been freaking awesome!

[Yamaneko]

They're talking about closing Six Flags here because all the youngsters are getting in fights and doing drugs. :(

[Crossblades]

Crossblades, what is that roller coaster called and where is it located? I am very interested in getting on it.


it's called the kingda Ka and it's located in Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey. The wait is ridicously long, but it's worth it

Which Six Flags park is that?:confused:

[~*~Celes~*~]

Cedar Point's only an hour away from my house :P So I can just go there when I want to go on a roller coaster. Gotta love the Magnum!!! (my first roller coaster <3)

[daggertrepe]

http://www.danheller.com/images/UnitedStates/Ohio/CedarPoint/Rides/dragster-2.jpg

The Dragster @ Cedar Point is scary but...

http://www.themeparks.com/library/albums/cedarpoint/thumb_magnum09.jpg

The Magnum @ Cedar Point is the best ride ever.

The Apollo's Chariot in Busch Garden's Virginia is awesome, too.

[Zeldy]

Ive been on this one (http://www.slowlane.net/travel/photos/Manchester-and-surrounds/Oblivion_ride_at_Alton_Towers.sized.jpg)
Twice :D It sends you into a black hole (http://images.agneskjaer.multiply.com/image/3/photos/13/500x500/25/oblivion%20hole.jpg?et=dJfsI7yHKKqSHasUjanTtQ)

Its so scary at the top of the drop, as it stops you just leaning over, and you can see the hole and people stood around and its like O_O

Oh and this one too
http://www.orlandofun.de/nemesis/nemesispans.jpg

Both at Alton Towers

[Shiny]

Oh yeah, that one. I planned to get on that one for a while, but the lines are so long for King Da Ka and Superman that I was just like forget it I'll do it later.

Yeah, I like the Hulk. It's not cliche like other roller coasters that take the time to go up a steep and then fall. It just rips you right out. I heard Superman was having alot of technical diffculties.

[rubah]

Does anyone else like the ones that go straight up and then back down again, leaving you weightless for a couple of microseconds?

Like this one? http://www.painetworks.com/photos/fa/fa0979.JPG
http://www.jubileeministry.org/JA/Spaceshot3'05.jpg

I wasn't there at that time, but I did ride that one several times in a row when at space camp two years ago >:]

[Dignified Pauper]

the top thrill dragster is pretty stupid. It is 17 seconds wasted. Millenium Force is by far superior.

http://community.iexplore.com/photos/journal_photos/mforce.jpg

[feona17]

eeee I love rollercoasters!

http://rcdb.com/pictures/picmax/paramount-canadas-wonderland/top-gun4.jpg

That's the last one I've been on. Top Gun in Canada's Wonderland.

Those type of rides don't interest me. It's either roller coasters or nothing:D

[~*~Celes~*~]

Roller coasters all the way!!! XD I LOOOOVE the andrenaline rush you get :P It's exciting.

Too bad when I went to Cedar Point the other day, my friend Michelle refused to go on any serious rides, like Magnum or Millenium Force -_-; Fear of heights, she says...

Disaster Transport made me have to pee o.o;

[SammieBabe]

At Busch Gardens here in Tampa, they have this coaster called Shiekra. They call it a dive coaster. You go up over 200 feet, then they freeze you mid air facing down, then drop you straight down. I won't be riding it. Ever...

[Hambone]

This one is the coolest. I haven't been on it yet. I was in line and it was my turn to ride it and the ride broke. They had to spend the rest of the day fixing it. Just my luck

http://www.coastergallery.com/2001/Poltergeist3.jpg

[Alive-Cat]

There was this pretty wacky one in I think Thorpe Park which said it had the most loops or something, in the world. I cannot remember. :(

[DynasticJam]

My favourite rollercoaster is Nemesis Inferno at Thorpe Park.

Man that ride sure is a blast! I also love Nemesis at Alton Towers!

Collossus. That's a great ride I suppose.

[Medi]

Yeah, Cedar Point is pretty much the greatest place on earth. I live about 2-3 hours away from it. I'm hoping to get back there this summer. The Raptor = :love:

[Reine]

Only been on one rollercoaster, on two different occasions. The first time I was with my family, and the second was a school trip. I only went on it the second time, because I was being begged by some girls from the class to go with them, otherwise none of them would have the courage to go on ._.

Both times, I felt like my insides had been rearranged. Considering how small the coaster is compared to the ones you guys posted, I cant imagine being on them

[Hambone]

To both Dagger Trepe and Crossblades, that's the Poltergeist at Six Flags Fiesta Texas in San Antonio, Texas. It shoots you out of the tower at 60 mph and on to the track. Girls have to take off their earrings before getting on. :) Maybe this (http://www.sixflags.com/parks/fiestatexas/Rides/poltergeist.html) will explain more.

[Zeldy]

Oh how could I forget Rita Queen Of Speed? ;__;

http://www.themeparks-uk.com/files/official_rita_1.jpg
"rocketing from 0 to 100 kph in 2.8 Seconds. This breathtaking ride pulls an incredible G-force of 4.7 on launch and continues at an average speed of 60 kph!"

I went on it with my friend, and she bought the picture, oh the shame ;_;. I was stunned xD More or less the same facial expression as that man.

I rode the raptor once...and I had my eyes closed and screamed the whole time @_@ I'll definantly go on it again sometime to get over my fear! ^_^

On the Wicked Twister, I swear I almost hit my head twice >_>; It was right before the first tunnel and there's this wood that hangs down and I was like "OMG MICHELLE I'M GONNA HIT MY HEAD!" So I ducked. Of course I'm too short to hit my head anyway...:rolleyes:

[GhandiOwnsYou]

They just killed one of my favorites. Paramounts Kings Dominion in Virginia had one called the flight of Fear (formerly Outer Limits: Flight of fear) Entirely indoor, pitch black version of that ultra twisty blue and yellow one, except far far tighter, and far far more convoluted, with a linear induction launch system. beautiful. other than that, you've got to love all the rides at Universal Studios and Sea World. The Kraken at Sea world is HIGHLY under rated.

I found a nifty site with videos of rides from theme parks all over the world.
<a href="http://www.themeparkreview.com/videos/thunderheadvideo.htm">Here</a> is Thunderhead, the second part of the video lets you see the ride from the first passenger seat perspective.
And <a href="http://www.themeparkreview.com/eejanaika/eejanaika.htm">this ride</a> is probably the most barf-baggy ride I've seen. Watch the video, that one also has a part seen from a passenger's perspective.

[Hell_Vangaurd]

Theres only one rollercoaster i've been on and that was the High Roller http://www.coaster-net.com/pics/valleyfair/highroller3_coasterclint.jpg

And my dad and I almost went on http://casabrian.com/images/medium/2001/valleyfair/Wild_Thing/CRW_3536_med.jpg that one but we both chickened out about 5 people ahead of us...

Oh snap. ^^

[Dreddz]

Im planning to go to Cedar Point next year, Roller Coasters are my life.
I went to Thorpe Park last Tuesday, im ashamed to have to go on the rides there, all pale in comparison to coasters at Cedar Point. I went on Stealth which is like that ride, it was 205 ft I believe. I had to queue for hours ! It was good but I want something more extreme. The best ride in the UK is probably Oblivian, but its over to quick !

Im booking to go to Cedar Point in Christmas for next year, Cant friggin wait !


There was this pretty wacky one in I think Thorpe Park which said it had the most loops or something, in the world. I cannot remember. :(

Thats collosus, that rides needs to close down, it has rusted badly and dosent have the smooth feel of other coasters, bashes your head around, I felt sore coming off that one...

[Hambone]

My favourite rollercoaster is Nemesis Inferno at Thorpe Park.

http://www.thorpepark.com/images/explore_the_park/nemesis_inferno/photos/nemesis_inferno_intro.jpg

You know, that looks strangely like the Great White at Sea World and the Batman at Six Flags Over Texas.

[Dreddz]

Nemesis inferno isnt that great a ride, the only ride worth going on in the UK is Stealth and Oblivian.
