Tough call...A nice set of interlocking corks is always fun...then again, so are the Zero Homie-G rolls. So are Cobra rolls and Top hats...I also enjoy just a good huge vertical loop with hangtime.


Ok, my favourite would be....just about any inversion. Im not too picky, I try to enjoy it all because its all meant to be enjoyed.

I love the vertical loop on Chang. It makes you feel like you are flying. [peakhill]

I prefer either a 0-g roll or a cork. I like how the cars in front of you seem to twist really fast.

0g rolls on B&M floorless (they seem more forceful than the ones on inverts), Dive Loops (love the twist), and Speed: The Ride's loop in reverse (nice hang-time).

I haven't ridden storm runner yet, but the flying snake dive looks awesome.

I've never been through an inversion that I didn't like. I guess if I were to choose, I would have to say the vertical loop on Schwarzkopf coasters.

i like all of the immelmans, dive loops too. but i guess a loop, its a traditional inversion found on most coasters with inversions.

most coasters? pretty much all inverting coasters, its the basis of all inversions basically.

I also like loops that are taken slowly and give you "upside down" airtime. An example is Mantis, which has some weightlessness in it's large loop.

I happen to strongly dislike mantis, others love it. Its really hard to tell, you just have to ride and make the call yourself.

Mantis gives hangtime depending on if the trims are on or not. Trims on = MASSIVE hangtime. Trims off = no hangtime, LOTS of G's.
