I love all roller coasters, but loops are not really my thing. I love extreme roller coasters to lame-tastic roller coasters. But, I love fast roller coasters! I feel the need for speed!

I have a personal law for myself and roller costers:

Never get on a roller coaster not made of wood, I'm too scared to get on the ones that seem to spiral up into the clouds, plus the wooden ones have that authentic rattling feeling.

Although, I've heard the wait for the Top Thrill Dragster is 3-4 hours. That's a little bit too much excitement :P I don't want to wait that long.. :roll:


When I went last summer, I had to wait a while. Not because thee lines were incredibly long, but because it kept breaking down. I was near the front, but I still had to wait a while since they keep testing it. Though I guess the lines do get pretty long. Eventually I went on it twice, but sadly it's over so fast. It's so much fun though.

I love roller coasters. <3 I'll go on anything, though I hate it when my head bangs against the restraints. Unfortunately, there are no good coasters in Washington. The nearest park is about an hour away from me, and it doesn't even have anything good. They opened a wooden coaster last summer, but it's not that great. There's the steel one, but it's fairly small and jerky. I think my favorite is the wild mouse one, but it's small.

My favorite roller coasters are Top Thrill Dragster, Millennium Force, Goliath, and X.

I love some roller coasters but others I am just plain scared of. It really depends on how big the drops are on it. I get terrified of huge drops. I used to be terrified of loops too but last summer I went on my first loop roller coaster and this summer I went on one with more than one loop.

Ooooh! I LOVE coasters! I just went to King's Island yesterday for like the 8th or 9th time this year. Their coasters aren't as good as others, but hey, I only live 15 minutes away...

I like loops and the drops. ^_^ The best feeling on a roller coaster is when you're speeding down the hill, and your stomach feels like it's been left up at the top of the hill...love it! My favorite coaster at the moment is the Vortex...plenty of loops and a nice, big hill.

I love roller coasters, but me and my friends rawked the kiddie car ride at Canada's Wonderland! It was right after lunch and there was no line. A couple of us squished into the back and one girl very carefully "driving" along the fixed metal track. It was so much fun, we rode it again :oops:


ImageThanks to Kristina for the set!

I love them, but I wish they lasted longer. You wait for an hour and then the ride lasts 1 minute.


Actually, it only seems like it lasts for one minute, but most last for a little over two minutes. In fact, the shortest coaster I know of is a cloned Batman: The Ride at SFMM, which lasts a minute and thirty-two seconds, or something around there. *nods* :)

Yes, I do love roller coasters. My brother got really interested in them a few years ago, and he keeps up with coaster news and things like that, so generally I end up finding out quite a bit about roller coasters.

I'm not too fond of giga coasters (With a lift of at least 300 feet) and strata coasters (With a lift of at least 400 feet) but I can stand hyper coasters. I've only really been on one of those, Goliath at SFMM in Valencia, California. I was actually terrified when we were going up the lift hill, so terrified that I was crying. I'd never been on a hyper coaster before that, you see, and the lift was 220 feet off the ground, so I was a bit intimidated. It actually proved out to be rather fun, except for the fact that the helix near the end had about 4.5 Gs on it, which made me rather sick.

My favorite kind of coaster would probably have to be the flying coaster, but preferable and Bolliger and Mabillard Flying, not one of the Vekoma Flying Dutchmans. *shivers* Ugh. I can't stand those things. We have one at Carowinds (The Paramounts park closest to where I live) and it's awful. It's horribly unreliable. I remember the first time that I wanted to ride it, my brother was nervous about riding it because every few times it ran, the anti rollback dog on the lifthill would stop while the train was still ascending. That's pretty awful, especially considering that the ride op didn't know what was wrong with it. *sighs and shakes head*

Erm... Yesh. I think you get the gist.

I'm not crazy about them, thanks to my acrophobia. I will ride on a few after I get a good idea of how fast/tall they are.

Yeah, I like them well enough. However, I hate drops. I really really hate drops and I can stand some loops, as long as there's not too many. I've only been on one loop in my entire life, though. :P

I love The Mummy Returns ride at Universal Studios though.

No! They freak me out and I always feel like something is going to go wrong. I really hate them.
