What was your first coaster to feature a launch?

Superman the escape not long after it opened at six flags mm.

Batman and Robin the Chiller at SF Great Adventure.
1998, I was 10 years old and that was one of the first 10 coasters I've ever been on. That was my first time at a big park, before hand was just the Jet Star and that looping coaster at Seaside Heights. My parents kinda threw me right into this hobby

Fun ride btw especially later on when lines were near nothing and they went to lap bars

I remember the launch on The Chiller felt pretty intense, too!

Backlot Stunt Coaster at Kings Island

I believe mine was Superman Ultimate Flight @ SFDK.

Yet another to Rock n Roller Coaster, but I was too young to actively enjoy it. The first one I really did experience was Motocoaster at Darien Lake, and after that was Stormrunner.

Rita at Alton! Remember loving the thing when I first came off it in September 2013 (I actually thought it was Alton's best at the time!) but then I slowly went off it as it gradually got rougher to the point where it is now my 2nd least favourite coaster... the launch is still quite good, though.

Revolution.

Flight of Fear at Kings Island.

Juvelen @ Djurs Sommerland; this ride was buttery smooth, but the lab bar literally killed your legs during the banked turns. Also, it provided little to no airtime, so you can’t really say, that I was a huge fan (heh).
It was enjoyable enough for me to re-ride, though:emoji_wink:

Rock n' Roller Coaster @ Disney's Hollywood Studios

 

[owentaylor121]

Revolution at Pleasure Beach, however I wouldn’t class it as a proper launch coaster, so my first ‘proper’ one was Rita.

Flight of Fear at Kings Island.

Stealth and i almost pooped myself I was that scared. But enjoy it now

Rita. Obviously the coaster is a waste of space but that launch still gets me with my lack of launcher experience.

Space Mountain: Mission 2

 

[jj23w]

Space Mountain Mission 2 then Stealth, Anubis, Rita, baco, revolution

 

[TPC]

Probably Space Mountain at Disneyland Paris if the Bullet at Flamingoland doesnt count ( it did launch you up backwards at the start)
