My first looper was the viper at SFGAdv, and i didn't go on any loopers until this year 'cause viper sucked |
lol like I said above, I rode Viper as my second looping coaster and I never went on sit down loopers untill a few years ago, I thought they were all rough like Viper. I was fine with inverts.

Well my first looper was Lazer @ Dorneypark, but i closed my eyes in the loops so that doesn't really count. My first one where I didn't close my eyes was Rock N' Roller Coaster @ MGM. |
i dont get it. lots of people would close their eyes. wouldnt that make it scarier? u wouldnt know what was happening. i admit i used to do it a long time ago and i still look back to when i did thinking closing my eyes makes it scarier

I never closed my eyes, I wanted to see what was going to happen me. Now I do close my eyes for a bit on some flat rides just to make it scarier.

My first looper was Drachen Fire at Busch Gardens, VA. I was only able to go on it a few times, cuz i was only at the park once, before they shut it down and removed. I went on it when i was like nine(I would have gone on it sooner, but i was always a short guy. But i still consider it one of my all time favorites. People think it was too rought, which i disagree. It was a rough ride, but not that rough.

closing my eyes made me sick for some reason. plus its more fun with your eyes open, otherwise you might miss some close calls. Like on Dueling Dragons-Ice, it looks like your gonna hit the wall, and the Fire coaster.

My first looping coaster was Shockwave at sfgam. It was my first coaster ever too and I will admit that I was pretty scared. I was only 7.

First Coaster- The Comet at Hersheypark. I was braver then, I wanted to go on Great Bear. After the Wildcat later that day, I decided I didn’t like the feeling coasters produced, and haven’t gone on any until this summer, 5 years later (and I’m now obsessed). Still I have always been fascinated with them even in my dark age of Roller Coasters (which is what I call that 5 year period of non-coaster riding). But don’t make fun of me- I’m only 14!
First Looper- Shockwave at PKD. I decided to ride it because I was in camp, and I didn’t want to be the one loser that sat out all the rides (like I was during my Dark age, which is why you may notice I’ve been to many big parks but have been on none of their coasters, which I regret)That same day I rode Volcano: The Blast Coaster, Anaconda, Outer Limits: Flight of Fear, Hypersonic XLC, and some woodies (although I hate woodies).
* Actually in my Dark age of Roller Coasters, I did ride wild mouse coasters which I absolutely loved, and still do.

My first looper was Laser Loop at Kennywood. I believe I was 13 when I first rode it.
(I don't think I'm as old as that potentially makes me seem  )

My first looping coaster was the Black Widow at Riverside Park(Now Six Flags New England) when I was 7 years old back in 1977. The Black Widow was an old Arrow Launched Shuttle Loop which required a hike up five flights of stairs to get to the loading platform.

Actually I lived in AZ for 10 years. I recorded rollercoaster shows. Then one day when I was watching the tape I said"ya no what, I think I will look up America's roller coast sence they have all theis fancey dacey rollercoasters" and I did. It was late November in 2001 and my dad promised me that he would take me, and so that is how I found out about CP |
That doesn't make sense, what exactly did you look up?
