Whats Your Worst Inversion?

i agree intamin fan, the viper at sfdl is rough, i dont like the pretzal after the loop, u have to lean ur head to one side or else u get a headache and the corkscrews just like u said they are pretty smooth, i like the cobra rolls on the boomerang. also: can someone please put a picture of an Immelmann and a Flat spin please.

here is a flat spin, they can be called either a wingover or a flatspin: (the flatspin is the first inversion after the MCBRs)



This is an Immelmann, which are used commonly for large B&M inverteds:

errr, I that too. On Boomerang at SFDL I was so bored cause of the Cobra Roll, I don't like Vekoma Boomerangs. But as I said in the post above, if you ride a B&M cobra roll, you will be amazed by how well they do it!

I've ridden Superman:Krypton Coaster- a typical B&M Cobra Roll. That did nothing to change my opinion on that element.

Well, for me on Raptor, I loved it.

the flat spin is the thing on the far right, right??

yeah, its on the far right below the zero-g roll.

I would have to say Corkscrew. Not only is is not a very fun inversion, if it is on any Vekoma/Arrow coaster, it bashes your head. That = No fun.

I've got a headache even from B&M corkscrews. I don't really like them, even in Inverteds they pull too much blood to your feet. Goudurix of Parc Asterix would've been a fun coaster if it wouldn't have been for the corkscrews[V]. They are the worst inversions by far I think.

Loops are very cool inversions, as are

corkscrews! Arrow's knock your head around, and even B&M has trouble making a smooth one. Also, in NL it is hard to make a smooth one with acceptable G's. I hate them.

This is true, and like I said before, they are my worst inversion too, but corkscres are the most visually appealing inversion. They look the coolest, especially as the train enters and exits them. The only problem is being on it [:D]

I've been on a few B&M corkscrews, they were completely smooth and fun for me, but I have to agree with the arrow/vekoma corscrews

my favorite corkscrew to look at is on "corscrew" at Cedar Point. Just because you get to walk right under it on the midway, it looks fabulous but rides like crap.

From what everone has said on this and many, many other sites, i will NEVER set foot on "The Ninja" at SFOG( a vekoma looper). When my friends and i were watching, we saw that the peoples heads were bobbing up and down, left and right, but the corkscrews on b&m coasters are fun, and smooth. Also, some one said a loop feels like your going in a straight line, then ride the Scorcher! The first loop DOESNT feel like a line, and when comming out of it, it felt like you were on the drop again.[xx(]

ya veritcal loops on old rides like viper and revolution at sfmm.

well, big loops give you that feeling, small loops, your plastered in your seat for the whole thing.

Boomerangs aren't rough theyre fun I went on collossus @ thorpe park and it was brilliant !

Yea, thats Intamin, B&M has great boomerangs too but vekoma and arrow suck at making them

hey intamin fan, i know wat u mean by smooth b&m cobra rolls but when i rode on raptor i was wearing flip flops that day and i took of my shoes and this fat lady next too my made her feet hit mine which hurt.

I say that corkscrews are the worst because on some of them, I hit my head on the side of the restraint[B)]
