willthegolfer Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 This is similar to the milestone thread, but instead of milestone credits, I thought I would start a thread for coaster "firsts." Any roller coaster related firsts that you think are significant, you can post, there's no set guidelines. Also, you can post your favorite ride from each category. I'll start. First coaster - Whizzer @ SfGam, Favorite- Montu @ BGT First steel coaster- Whizzer @ SfGam, Favorite - Montu @ BGT First Woodie- Viper @ SfGam, Favorite - Viper @ SfGam First 100 ft coaster- Demon @ SfGam, Favorite - Montu @ BGT First 200 ft coaster- Sheikra @ BGT, Favorite - Raging Bull @ SfGam First looping coaster- Demon @ SfGam, Favorite - Montu @ BGT First B&M- Superman : UF @ SfGam, Favorite - Montu @ BGT First Intamin- V2 @ SfGam, Favorite - Cheetah Hunt @ BGT First GCI- Gwazi (Tiger) @ BGT, Favorite - Gwazi @ BGT First BM invert- B:TR @ SfGam, Favorite- Montu @ BGT First Launched coaster- V2 @ SfGam, Favorite - Cheetah Hunt @ BGT First Standup- Iron Wolf @ SfGam, Favorite - Iron Wolf @ SfGam First Flyer- S:UF @ SfGam, Favorite - S:UF @ SfGam. I'm interested to see what you guys say for your firsts and favorites! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
