Roller Coasters
 

Im a big roller coaster fan. Is anyone else here a fan? If so, list your favorite one. For me, i love Nitro at Six Flags Great Adventure. I havent had the pleasure of riding the new one (Cant remember the name right now) but i will journey out to try it this summer.

I loved Top Thrill Dragster and Millenium Force. After I rode those two, nothing near where I live was interesting anymore. Can't wait to go back.

My favourite at the mo has to be Oblivion at Alton Towers. I also liked Air and Nemesis there.

The only other theme park I've been to is Blackpool. Revolution was good there, and I can't wait to go back some time and try the Big One.

You forgot Mantis and Raptor.

My favorites are the Sheikra, Alpengeist(sp) Hypersonic XLC, and probly the Volcano.

Raptor is cool but in general anything at ceder point is awsome, I couldnt ride top thill dragster it was down, I was pissed.
I dont really have a favorite roller coaster so many good ones..

I've never been on a roller coaster. Ever.

Same here, except for this really lame one which comes with the fair to our city every year. Ive never been on an actual one.

I looove rollercoasters. Shivering Timbers at Michigans Adventure is my favorite. It's like...OMG! It's the second best wooden rollercoaster in the US, the tallest peak is at 125ft, gets over 65mph, loads of airtime...

Yeah...I have a fondness for wooden rollercoasters. One of these days, though...I gotta try the RipCord, though it's not a rollercoaster at all. Rather, they strap you belly down into a harness, pull you up to 183ft, and then let you go. You swing out over the lake. Fuckin' awesome.

ive done that. Its not to bad at all. U get a massive wiplash effect tho

Yeah. It broke down for the day 10 minutes after we got off.

Magnum XL sucked btw.

The new one at Six Flags Great Adventure is Kingda Ka, and I went there to ride it, but it wasn't open that fucking day.. I was soo pissed. You can't beat the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world though!

I love roller coasters, they're my best friend.

Yea, Cedar Point is a great place. I think this is the first summer where I didn't go down there in about 6 years. Trying to get on all thier coasters in one day is really hard, but I did it once or twice. Now they might have too many to hit them all in one day.

Thats the name of it. I saw the construction of it when i was there last and nearly shit my pants just seeing how high it goes.

Ive been on Nitro when its broken down while climbing the lift. Instead of getting u out, they fix it and expect to be in the right frame of mind to ride it. Now thats a thrill rush

Roller Coasters are the ONLY good reason for going to an amusement park. I love Cedar Point solely for the sheer amount of coasters there. Two of my favorites are The Beast at King's Island, and Superman at Six Flags New England.

I think Six Flags Great Adventure has finally put together a cast of rollercoasters that rivals, if not surpasses Cedar Point now.

America has far too many Roller Coasters.

I think I might take a Gap Year and come for a visit, just to go to all these Amusement Parks and ride the Roller Coasters.

Are you a rich mother fucker?

Not just yet. But I plan on being. I've still got two years until a possible Gap year. I have plans. :)

The Beast is a pretty decent roller coaster. It's the fastest, highest wooden roller coaster in the world, if I remember correctly. They have another The Beast roller coaster there now that is faster than the original.

I think they have especially with kingda kong, nitro, superman, medussia, batman and batman the chiller and all the other great things theyhave there. Oh by the way, the all american scream machine was the first coaster i ever went on. How scary that was

Just wait till Cedar point breaks the 500 foot mark. I'll be back there.


Ironic because I'm deatly afraid of heights

Grav doesn't fit in roller coasters :(


Raging Bull at 6 Flags Great America here in IL.

Sov lets go to 6 flags. I love you.

Is that even a possibility for Cedar Point yet, or are you just saying it? I think Kingda Ka is like 420 feet or something. 500+ feet would be scary as shit..

and we would all travel to test it. I say we make Petey the crash guy that gets to ride it while its still in the testing phases

Put one of those Epilepsy helmets on him for safety!

Top Thrill Dragster I believe is 420 feet. Kingda Ka is 456 feet.

It's literally a taller version of Top Thrill with a camel hump to ride over and a slightly faster launch speed. If it was anything really new I would have already taken a ride on it :-\

Id be first in line for the 500 foot one. As long as it's a pneumatically launched ride. I would fucking DIE if i had to take a cable lift up to that height.

Cedar point was the first park to break 200 feet with Magnum xl, first to break 300 feet with Millenium Force, and first to break 400 feet with Top Thrill. They will be first for 500 feet.

the chainlift of the 500 would kill most people cause they would def have a heart attack on the way up. Then the rush down would snap them into a coma. That day will be the day that i truely live

If anyone wants to spend some time at Paramounts Kings Island they can chill at my crib. Bring beer.

That's like an hour and a half from here. I've been there so many times but I bet you've been more heh.

Where is it exactly, and how are the rides? Basically, I just want an excuse to leave my area and drink, so you can lie to me if you want.

ill join the party

When do you guys turn 21 by the way?

on dec 4th 2006. Why do u ask, cause if its a way to come and party with u im there

This upcoming November.

King's Island is where The Beast is, I think. It's worth it for that ride.

You're right. They also have some other killer rides, too.

Pneumatically launched? How does that work? Surely they don't use compressed air or whatever to shoot the trains round the track and up and over 456ft peaky things?

I quite like the chain method. It really builds up the adrenaline. And a 500ft ride with chains, well, what can you say? WOWOWOWOWOW!

Because I'll go there when you guys turn 21, that way we can go to the bars and pick up 3 drunk hoes to run a train on.

shotty anus

They launch you to 120+ mph in 3-4 seconds o-o
