Daredevil Dive; omg i was so scared when i went on it. Being pulled up backwards and not knowing when you are going to stop. Plus my friends were the crew so they were messing with me the whole time. When you initially pull the ripcord and feel like you aren't in the flight suit any more is so scary. You can know exactly what is coming but still not be ready for it the first time you go on.

Coaster: Vertical Velocity, nothing beats the launch and the brakes on the second tower.

Flat: Trailblazer because it never has a wait, has the best airtime, and it is just a fun experience.

Upcharge: Turbo Bungy, i love being able to work on my flips. I did 11 in one session, that is so much fun. I even had one double flip, which was very difficult to do.
RIP: Trailblazer and Deja Vu...heck, even Alien Encounter :(

Fangs Up Cobra Style!!!

Mine would have to be Raging Bull, I love the first drop and I love the second hill, I love to call the hills bunny hills but I also love Viper, the first drop on that is awesome, and i love when you're going over the hills your butt comes out of the seat same with American Eagle, those 3 rides are my favorite.

Coaster: Raging Bull, all the way! Awesome airtime, long ride, and fast-paced. It's also a better ride if you force your friends to go on it! :lol:

Flat: King Chaos-- I love the spins, but I wish it was slightly longer.

Upcharge: Turbo Bungy-- it is so fun to do flips on that thing!

Yes, either that or Stargate. :) If the lines aren't long, I'll also opt for Giant Drop.

My favorite would be RB due to the great air time it gives you and the quickness the ride has. And the capacity helps give you more rides!

Yes, I love Bull's capacity. You can move through an entire queue house in about 15 minutes when it's running three trains.

I admit when i first went on Raging Bull, when we went down the big hill I started crying it scared me to death, I think it was the 2nd or 3rd week RB was open I can't really remember but I remember that I did cry on the big hill but now I practically love that ride.
