Ride types that you've only been on once

Strata Poster
Highly confusing title, no?

These are rides of certain types that you've only been on one, at that park and that ride. Could be because of a low coaster count, or because of rarity.

My examples would be as follows:
Schwarzkopf:
-Mindbender (SFOG):Only looper
-Whizzer (SFGAm): Only spiral lift
Intamin:
-Millennium Force (Cedar Point): Only Giga
-Top Thrill Dragster (Cedar Point) Only Strata
Arrow:
-Magnum XL 200 (Cedar Point): Only Hyper
Vekoma:
-Firehawk (King's Island): Only Flyer

I'm sure I forgot some...

Also, clones don't count (obviously) as even though they're the same layout, they're still at different parks (IE I only rode Superman: Ultimate Flight as a B&M flyer, but I've riden it at SFoG and SFGAm)
 
Ultimate is the only one of it's type
Enigma is the only Jumbo V
Only ones I could think of :lol:
 
Well if we go into only type of ride that I've been on, that could be a long list, but as for unique for designers, as Jools did..

Dueling Dragons - only dueling inverts
Raging Bull - only hyper-twister
Lost Coaster of Superstition Mountain - well.. look at it
Gemini - only racing steel tubed/wooden supported (that I know of)
Dominator - largest relocated ride
Son of Beast - only wooden coaster with a loop (rode with and without)
Hydra - only JoJo roll
Loch Ness Monster - only interlocking loops


Off the top of my head, looking through my rides, that is all I could find/recognize.
 
I s'pose this gives you a good idea of what you need to ride, so you can compare different coasters of the same type, instead of just one experience, good topic :)
I haven't been on that many coasters, so:
PMBO - Only Arrow Hyper,
Grand National - Only Racer,
Avalanche - Only Bobsled,
Steeplechase - Only... Something,
Air - Only Flyer,
Spinball Whizzer - Only Spinning Coaster,
Oblivion - Only Dive Coaster,
Colossus - Only Intamin Multi Looper
These are only a few, I'm not too sure of the others :?
 
Loads, most substantial ones:
PMBO-Only Hyper
air-Only Flyer
Oblivion-Only DM
Grand National-Only racer
Avalanche-Only Bobsleigh
Irn Bru Revolution-Only Shuttle
Mumbo Jumbo-Only beyond 90 degrees
Steeplechase-Only whatever it is
Wild Mouse BPB-Only wooden wild mouse

Probably more but...
 
-Firehawk (King's Island): Only Flyer

I'm kinda confused, but I'll try:

Millie- Only Giga
Whizzer- Only Spiral Lift
Gemini - Only racing steel tubed/wooden supported
Dominator - Largest relocated ride
Raging Bull- Hyper twister
Son of Beast- Only woodie with a loop even though I rode it after the loop was gone

I dunno, I'm kinda confused so I'll just leave it at that.

Stuntfall - GIB
Blue Tornado - Vekoma SLC
Oblivion - Only B&M Dive coaster

Son of Beast: Only wooden with a loop. I rode with the loop and without

I meant the only Vekoma flyer.

Also:
B&M:
Raging Bull: Only Hyper Twister
Intamin:

I'm pretty sure I have quite a few but I'll just do the most obvious that I see.

Dueling Dragons - only duelling B&M invert
Hulk - only launched B&M
Euro Mir - only Mack spinner
Silver Star - only B&M hyper
Air - only B&M flyer
Vampire - only Arrow suspended

I assume I've done it the right way this time. :lol:
 
I'm looking at everybody's lists, and it seems for the most part, unless something is unique (Raging Bull is the only B&M hyper-twister) then I've ridden more than one example.
 
^ Don't forget the Scad/t Tower. That's a ride.
 
HRRR: Only X-Car/Only Non Inverting Loop/Only ride where I can choose my music/Only ride I've been on with a vertical lift/Only ride with 5 or 6 brake runs. :P

Voodoo/Possessed: Only Intamin (I think)/ Only inverted launch.

Cheetah Chase: Only Wild Mouse

Primeval Whirl: Only spinning wild mouse
 
Millennium Force (Cedar Point): Only Giga
Top Thrill Dragster (Cedar Point) Only Strata
Gemini - only racing steel tubed/wooden supported
Air - Only Flyer
Oblivion - Only Dive Coaster
Mantis- Cedar Point only Standup
X:/ No Way Out (Thorpe Park): Only Fully Backwards

These are the only ones I can think of at moment.
