What's new

What was your first coaster with an inversion?

Another for Corkscrew at Cedar Point. I agree it wasn't rough at all in the mid 90s. That or I was just a barely 48" tall kid with rubber for joints.
 
Traumatizer at Pleasureland Southport, probably 2001? I thought it was incredible, particularly the footchopper just before the sidewinder.

Took me years before I knew how other coasters could compare to SLCs! On that trip I also experienced Cyclone (RIP) and King Solomon’s Mines (RIP) so I largely assumed all coasters were pretty rough, not to mention my home park was Lightwater Valley...
 
Mine was Tennessee Tornado at Dollywood. I remember being so shocked that a coaster could do a "loop dee loop" 3 times. Man was I in for a treat once I became an enthusiast.
