least favorite(s): immelman-mind eraser sfne, 1st immelman- griffon
(not that i dont like these just not as fun as others)

My favorite in order from greatest to least

Immelman-wildfire
Dive loop-medusa sfdk
Cobra roll-wildfire
Top hat-Mr.Freeze
Corkscrew-maverick

Least fav
Inline twists-batman the ride(they give me headachs)
Zero-g roll-medusa-dfdk

Yea the rolls just give me headachs and just arn't fun to me. I love how on wildfire when you come out of the immelman and you get that breif second of floater air and, if you hold your head up, you can see out acrost the park and even further outside of it before being violently jerked downwards. Its not easy to explain you really have to ride it to get what i mean.
Trim breaks are your enemy, retracking/smoothing is your friend. I miss b&m floored sit downs. coaster count=39
