What were your first loopers even riden? <BR>1. Super Duper Looper in Hershey <BR>2. King Cobra at KD <BR>3. Loch Ness Monster at BG <BR> <BR>Underated invert is 2 Face the FLipside, though is just a boomerang with a loop, its still fun to ride for a quick adrenaline rush. Please 6 Flags Amer. get rid of the water park. Quote the Raven "More height and more G's, lets make a shuttle coaster to soothe our souls for extreme excitement"

my first looper was Anaconda at PKD. A pretty good looper when it was first built but even it is showing age. Next would be the cheesy Shockwave at PKD, followed by Loch Ness Monster. Then on to bigger and badder rides. Nessie is still a favorite though because she rarely has the lines once the rest of the park opens up.

My first looper was the Steel Phantom in Kennywood. Back then, I was too chicken to go on loopers. But that year, I forced myself on it, and it was awesome. I have loved loopers ever since. |

The currently defunct Black Widow Loop Coaster, an Arrow shuttle looper at SFNE. I was scared to death. Man, those forty-foot drops seemed so intense at the time!

Steamin' Demon at Great Escape. I must say, it did NOT give me a good first impression of looping coasters, but fortunately I've been on better ones since then... <IMG SRC="/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

I was never too thrilled with rollercoasters. But we took a trip to IOA with a school trip and I talked a student into going onto the hulk so I couldn't chicken out. The Incredible Hulk was my first looping coaster.

My first Looper was Dragon Kahn (B&M in Spain)....i didnt know at the time that it had the world record for most inversions (Its basically Kumba with an extra loop, giving it 8 inversions).....funny thing is that the only loopers ive been on are B&Ms, not by choice, but because those are pretty much all the loopers in Flordida (Hulk, Dragons, Kumba, Montu, Kraken)...peace

My Very first looper was the Revolution at Six Flags Magic Mountain. It was quickly folowed by Viper. This was in '92. I was eight years old. Let me tell you I've NEVER gotten the same rush as when I first went over the hill to Viper.

That would have been CP's Corkscrew.....back when 3 inversions actually set a world record! <IMG SRC="/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif"> <BR> <BR>I remember just staring at the track, utterly stupified. This thing does WHAT?!?!? While it's really not that hard to dazzle an 8 year-old, you have to remember that there weren't that many loopers on earth back then. <BR> <BR>Ah, the two- to three-hour waits....the long-lost red train....the magic of standing under the corkscrew and gaping at screaming riders. <BR> <BR>I don't think any other coaster has blown me away at first sight quite like that one. The first sight of SFGAM's B:TR and MF come in at a distant second and third. <BR> <BR>-CPlaya |

My first looping coaster was the Wabash Cannonball at Opryland. I was scared to death but i rode it, and rode it, and rode it. I think you can see where i'm going with this. I think i rode it like 12 times in a row. <BR> <BR>WHY DID THEY CLOSE OPRYLAND! <IMG SRC="/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif">
