Purcell364 Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 can you even call that a rollercoaster? that was the first i ever went on then i went on a few more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Probably the first real rollercoaster i ever went on was the Vampire at Chessington It looks pretty scary when you're little. Its your typical suspended rollercoaster but its only very tame, its got some nice twists but only runs at a slow speed. It operated from 1990 to 2000 before closing for a year to be refurbished with a few track changes. It opened again in early 2002. It was built by Vekoma The UK has some great thrill rides but they dont tend to last very long. Air at Alton towers is unique in that it tilts you so you face downwards as if you are flying. Its a great ride but only lasts just under two minutes. Nemesis, also at alton towers is a suspended coaster but only lasts 1:20 :( The Kumba at Busch gardens lasts a whopping 3 minutes! Its just a shame there are no suspended coasters that last that long Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

How2PK Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 First one I've been on is the Python, in the Efteling, Holland. I really love Rollercoasters, though I havn't been to Six Flags yet, they have tons of rollercoasters there. And I'd really love to go into this one, I found it accidently on google. It's called the Dragon Khan, it looks so awesome. :D Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!

Mayjest Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 My first 'real' one was vampire as well. Quickly followed by Nemesis (my favourity UK ride) and Air. I love rollercoasters. But my all time favourite has to be Hulk at Universal Studios, florida. Absolutly fantastic. So fast that you can feel you cheeks flapping against your ears. You know how most roller coasters pull you up and then drop you? I thought the Hulk would do that too. Then about half way up that dragging bit we suddenly get launched and fly out! I was not expecting it all, my heart nearly stopped! I loved that ride. Better than everything at Disneyland put together. Goals to get my skills back up to a barely respectable level on the high scores: Currently going for Bone to Peaches spell. It's amazing how boring doing the same repetitive task is!

Subse7en Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I went on vacation to America like 2 years ago and went to Cedar Point. That was deffinatly one of the best parts of my vacation. Here some pics of teh 00ber high fast steep coasters, the "Millenium Force". There are alot more rollercoasters there, like the "Mantis", a stand-up coaster, and the "Top Hill Dragster" (Pic below). Yeah, I like coasters. I wanna go back there again one time, Just a bit hard for me, considering the fact that I live in Holland.

Lionheart_0 Posted June 6, 2005 Author Share Posted June 6, 2005 :shock: some of those are preatty big... lol i would liek to try. I was offered to go to the bat and top gun after, but i said no. Top gun you are sorta siting, with your legs suspended, and there are polls everywhere. really just dont like the loop... you go upside down, and not in a seat :oops: . The bat is just one of those coasters without a compleat track, but it goes through a loop, up, then backwards, throught the loop, a steep turn, through another loop, up, and does it alll again before stoping... :oops: Next time im gonna try vortex, long line, but its preatty much a stright track, just realy fast. Edit: I didnt go on top gun.... but i went witht he air cadets :lol: ironic. Sig by IkuraiYour Guide to Posting! Behave or I will send my Moose mounted Beaver launchers at you!

Mercifull Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Has anyone been on the thrill rides recently build in Seaworld Florida? The Kraken is an amazing floorless coaster running at 65mph. Most of the ride takes place over land but theres a great few times when you loop down inderground you think you are going to crash its so great. Once of the best rides in recent years The other ride at orlando is the Journey to Atlantis. Its bascily an elaborate log flume but because its on water you dont realise that you are actually on a roller coaster and the climax of the ride basicly tuirns from a log flume to a steel rollercoaster twisting around in similar fasion to the Black Hole at Alton towers lol. I dont want to post pics of this because its so great if you ever go there i dont want to spoil it. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

It was wooden and went fast, but it sucked. My favourite are the Bat and the Vortex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 ...went fast, but it sucked Fast rides are great. Ive been on a LOT of rides but the fastest ive ever been has only been about 70mph. The ride i REALLY want to go on right now has just opened at Six Flags Great Adventure. Its called the Kingda Ka and its speeds tops 128mph and is currently the worlds fastest coaster, unfortunatly with thes vertical drop coasters like this and oblivion it only lasts a few seconds. Kingda Ka barely breaks 30 seconds. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape. If we let players start doing this, it devalues RuneScape for others.

They're ok, just, not too thrilling since there aren't any loops or anything, you just go up and down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Wooden rides arnt that bad, ever been on the Big One at Blackpool Pleasure Beach? Over 74mph with drops of 62m And what about the Gwazi at Busch Gardens Tampa? Twin coaster with a gforce of up to 3.5! the rides at Busch Gardens are great, not only thrilling but they last a long time too.

I actually waited 3 hours in line this weekend just to go on Kingda Ka but was well worth the wait. 3 seconds to get to 128mph is crazy but the 15 seconds for the ride makes you want to go on it over and over again. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary isn't it. Probably scariest ride i've been on. Scaries part is the launch cause u reach the speed soooo fast and you launch up so high you don't even have time to think about it. Scary. Very good Just don't sit in the front or your eyes will hurt if you can keep them open.

I fricking tried to apply for a park cleaning job on that place! They said it was all filled during my interview so they shifted me to cashiers even though I opted for food preparation... Hate that place soo much even though I have a season pass! Ahhh! :x The Enrichment Center reminds you that the weighted companion cube will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, cannot speak.
