First Rollercoaster Experience Ever!?!

I can't remember if I rode any kiddie coasters as a kid, but my first memory of a proper roller coaster was Trace du Hourra at Parc Asterix. I didn't like coasters at all when I was younger, but went on a school trip to Paris in year 8 and we went to Parc Asterix on the first day. All my mates wanted to go on this first, so I decided to go on it as well. I was kind of scared at first but then got excited and I really enjoyed it. My first time going upside down was 2 days later on Space Mountain: Mission 2 at DLRP which they had to trick me to go on, as I didn't know it had inversions but it was great.

My first [major] roller coaster was the present day Dominator (used to be Batman: Knight Flight at the now defunct Six Flags: Ohio. From that point on, I was hooked.

I'm not sure I've posted in here yet- although I've posted in a newer version of this topic- so I'll answer with Barnstormer at the Magic Kingdom when I was like two or three.

I've been going on the little kiddies' coasters for as long as I can remember, but my first 'true' coaster was probably Shockwave at Drayton Manor when I was about 9-10.

First post!

My first coaster was the Mine Ride at Cedar Point; I was 7. My aunt took my cousin and I that day. She wanted us to ride one of the smaller ones first. Needless to say, I rode all six coasters at CP (it was 1983!) before that day was over.

I think it may have been the Rattlesnake at Pleasurewood? Or the Roller Coaster at GYPB? Or even Runaway Train at Pettitts?

To be honestly have no idea, but it must be from a local park. :?

Dragon at Legoland when I was 4. Back then it was Oblivion to me! I remember we stayed late and they had shut the queue - let us go round 4 times! :) How nice.

My first ever rollercoaster was the Hornet at Flambards, a small theme park I went to on a family holiday when I was about 8. My first big rollercoaster was Nemesis Inferno.

My first ever coaster was The Caterpiller at dreamland I can't remember how old I was. My first looping coaster was Colossus at Thorpe Park back in 2008 I loved it and thats how my love for theme parks and rides started.
