Most Memorable Ride Moment

My most memorable moment as an enthusiast was my first go on The Ultimate. I knew it was going to be rough but I didn't know how intense it was going to be throughout the course. Totally blew me away and thats why I still love it.

Before I was an enthusiast my most memorable was Wild Mouse at BPB. I was expecting some tame kiddie ride and ended up coming off the coaster shaking. On each corner I thought the car was going to fly off the track.

Hurakan Condor actually :lol:
It was my first tower drop ride I've been on
Same here. After my first ride ride I was literally shaking as I had never before experienced nothing like it. Luckily for me, HC was a walk-on that day. Rode it ten times! Oohh the euphoria... :--D I still find HC the best flat ride I've ever ridden!

Another came at Liseberg, riding Uppswinget. The ride's location makes it EVEN better to ride! But riding it by night, Balder glooming in the distance, swooping over the edge into darkness. Best...ever!
 
First ever go on Scream at Heide Park. Totally awesome gyro tower..

Mental ride on Collosus @ Heide in the pouring rain sat back seat with a full train. Totally insane speed and airtime. Felt like id been a few rounds with tyson after i got off. Legendary!

Also, first go i had on X2 @ SFMM. Front row seat. Awesome ride. Just ended too quickly!

Ooh, and first go on Tatsu. The forces at the bottom of that pretzel loop were intense to say the least...
 
The part on Blue Fall where the poo flies out of the back of your collar.
 
For some reason I have a feeling Drop Zone at King's Island is gonna be a memorable one for me. Either because I will:

1) **** my pants
2) Not have a voice from screaming so loud / crying

Yah.. It's the thing I'm least looking forward to for the Cf-Live next month.
 
Mine has to be the emotions of doing Millenium Force the 1st time, cresting that hill to the 1st drop was very much anticiation followed by OMG. :--D
Enjoyed being a tad frightened but excited at the same time.

Same really goes for TTd and Maverick and Wicked Twister.

I think also the feeling of Am I really here at Cedar Point.

I think another would be front row on Stealth in the hail, memorable for the wrong reasons, it bloody hurt :cry:

In a moment of sadness I thought about what I can honestly considor one of the most surreal views of my life. This occured on the lovely Rush. Basically, just as I was experiencing the pop of airtime you get on the high swing on swing A, I looked back to see the sun setting behind Stealth, the whole park just lighting up and the black sky above turning to a warm pink towards stealth. Fantastic view and such a peaceful, yet odd moment.

So, what else has anyone else experienced that is especially memorable or so surreal? (specific moments, not an entire ride)
when i was little and i went on cyclone. the first drop was amazing and i could see for miles. I couldnt stop talking about it for ages!
