Just curious as to how many have been able to ride one of every type of B&M design. Their portfolio is huge, but there are 8 (not counting the family coasters) types of B&M's that I'm prety sure are all covered in the site main areas of travel. How many have been able to ride one of each kind and which was the first?

And if you haven't yet, do you have plans to complete B&M's this year?


Raptor
Mantis
Kumba
Batman :Knight Flight
Manta
Raging BUll
Sheikra
Gatekeeper

no fams here in the US :(

I plan to ride Fury and whatever other B&Ms are at Carowinds next year.

With the exception of Family coasters, I've been on every type of B&M. My first B&M was probably Georgia Scorcher at SFOG.

I almost got them complete:

Flying - Air (Alton Towers)
Inverted - Black Mamba (Phantasialand)
Wing coaster - Swarm (Thorpe Park)
Floorless - Daemonen (Tivoli Gardens)
Sitdown with Clamshell restraints - Silverstar (Europa Park)
Standup - Riddler's Revenge (Six Flags Magic Mountain)
Dive Machine - Krake (Heide Park)

I'm still missing the sitdown with over the shoulder restraints and they are nowhere near me so I'll guess I won't have the list complete this year or next year. ;)

Yes, and I've been on multiple of every type! I've ridden 47/62 of the operating/being built B&Ms in North America!

Flying: 5/5
Sitting: 3/3
Dive: 2/3 (missing Valravn)
Floorless: 7/8 (missing Hydra)
Stand Up: 6/7 (missing Apocalypse)
Wing: 2/4 (missing GateKeeper, Thunderbird)
Hyper: 6/11 (missing Fury 325, Leviathan, Behemoth, Goliath (LR), Mako)
Inverted: 16/31 (missing Banshee, Patriot, Talon, SFStl Batman, Vampire)

In 2016, I plan on completing Dive, Floorless, Stand Up, and Wing Coasters in North America (As well as riding 3 Hypers and 2 Inverts). I should be missing only 5 B&Ms at that point!

Hyper Coaster - Shambhala - Nitro
Floorless Coaster - Medusa/Bizarro and Batman Dark Night
Inverted Coaster - Batman the Ride at SFOG and SFGAdv

Still to hit
Flying Coaster, Stand-Up Coaster, Wing Coaster, Sitting Coaster, Dive Coaster, Family Coaster

I'm Hoping to get back to SFGdv after 15 years and that woudl give me my first Stand up and Flying B&Ms. If I do end up getting a SFI season pass My brother is thinking of hitting SFAm so that woudl give me a second stand up.

I would guess it would be a few years before i get any other styles.
