    Your top 10 coasters in your home country/state

    Hi guys. With COVID-19 and its various new variants, and travel restrictions currently in place, it’s looking as though 2021 could be similar to 2020 in seeing quite a bit more coaster riding in our home countries than we’ve perhaps been used to for quite a few years. So I thought it might be...

    What was the coaster that helped you brave your fears, and what were they?

    Hey CoasterFORCE, I was wondering what that "first big step into coasters" for you all was.

    Maurer Sohne Looping Coaster In Storage (who will buy?)

    https://rcdb.com/1195.htm I definitely think somewhere like a Drayton Manor or someone like that could buy this. It's now in storage at Rusutsu Resort in Japan but easily could be shipped to the UK. (Look at the shipping possibly from Brazil to Flamingo Land)
