Inversions?! Inversions?! Inversions!!!

Everyone loves inversions. Well not some people. There all "BOOHOO, Inversions. BOOHOO." WIMPS. I just thought to bring some fun to this board, and we could all vote on our all time favorite inversions. So What's YOUR fav. inversion???


The first time I posted this I forgot to post my fav. inversion! Well if I must tell you, it has to be The " Top Hat Inversion" from the coaster Mr. Freeze at SF Over TX. Mr. Freeze is "The Coolest Coaster On The Planet" Hence my name"CoolestCoaster"[IMG]

I like barrel rolls on inverted coasters followed by well placed corkscrews, like the last one on Flight of Fear at PKD and PKI.

Hey, some of us have neck or back problems that make us leery of inversions. (The reason why I have never rode Ninja at SFOG.) However, I must say that the inversions on Loch Ness Monster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, (the interlocked loops,) and the pretzel loop on Superman: Ultimate Flight at SFOG are my #1 and #2 favorites, respectively.

Wait- second my answer above.

Definitly Superman's Pretzel Loop. Best. Element. Ev-ar.

Too bad the rest of the ride is unexciting

My favorite inversions are #1: Boomerang or Batwing (whatever its called, #2: Immelmann, #3: vertical loop (its so much better on an inverted coaster.)

The B&M zero G roll. That is incredible. You get some serious air going through that.

Hmm favorite invert? Well I love the zero g roll on Scream/Medusa. Then a cobra roll The Serpant on Medusa West pretty much sucks so that is a least favorite.

As long as it is an inversion, I'm happy, it doesnt matter what type.

Fixed it.

On the record though. I am not a fan of inversions. Speed and hills is what gets my attention.

The thing that makes the Zero G roll on the rpor so great is the drop afterwards it comes as a shock and your like so confused what just happened
