I prefer wooden coasters over metals ones. The woden ones seem more dangerous and doesn't go upside down.

I don't think I could handle metal rollercoasters. I mean, some of them can go from 0 to 80 mph in under 2 seconds. Scary.

I hate Wooden Roller Coasters... they are waaaay to rickety and jerky. I get headaches on those lol

Going that fast is part of the fun :D Man.. it's such a rush. It's great.

I love roller coasters, but I'm picky. I'll go on anything that doesn't turn upside down or make you sit with your feet hanging off (which usually indicates that it'll make you go upside down). I prefer wooden coasters, actually.

I don't like roller coasters too much. I went into them a couple of times, but that's because my friends dragged me into it. -_-

The main reason is that I don't feel safe when riding one. Every time I go there, I always feel like I'm going to be ejected from the seats. It almost happened once, but in another attraction. The one that swing from a side to another one, doing a 180 degrees rotation. When It was swinging at full speed, I ended up hanging with one arm to the protection bar and my body and legs were flying in the air for 1-2 seconds. I managed to fall down right onto the seat and grabbed the protection bar once again. I don't wanna do it again...

Oh and did I say I have the fear of height?

Well, I've grown to love them.
I was ready to be sick on a Crazy Mouse Rollercoaster on the end of Brighton Pier in January,and when I went to Chessington in June, I stomached the Dragons Fury twice (and it was brilliant too!)
If you're going to Chessington World of Adventures (UK theme park) Ramases Revenge is really cool, and I want to go to Alton Towers. I really do!

I love roller coasters! The bigger the better. Although I hate how much head gets forced to on side...Heh, I used to think people called them roller custards when I was little. :P

I absolutely love roller coasters!

I used to be horribly scared of them though, and I was always so ashamed of that. So one day I met a girl at an amusement park that was also afraid of them, but had a mother who loved them. Her mom wanted to ride it, so while waiting we went on one of the 'medium' coasters. It was fun, and when we met up with her mom she kept telling us how fun the big ones were. As we went on other rides we kept asking each other, "Should we ride it?" and finally we decided to go on one of the large ones together. It was awesome, and I've loved them ever since. (And I've been kicking myself for being afraid of them.)

I would love roller coasters, but I've only ever been on one as there is only one in New Zealand, however the one I mean is the one in Australia that has been closed for unsafety. Both me and 162 have had the harnesses disconnect on us...

I'm a wimpy non-risk-taker. Don't like roller coasters.

if youve ever been to six flags st. louis i love the ninja and the batman.

we're also home to the world oldest and largest wooden coasters. good times. (the screaming eagle and the boss)

I love them, but I won't go on the Superman Ride of Steel at Six Flags. It's gotten stuck upsidedown so many times and the idea of just a little bar holding you scares me. Plus, I'm scared of heights, and it's really tall. I'll go on any other though ^^

Sadly, I have never been on one and I am almost 13! It is just that the last time that I was at a theme park, I was like 5 years old and too short to go on one! gahh.
