Don't know if you'd consider it a coaster, but the SuperLoop at the state fair was the first time I went inverted. I am an invert FREAK now! My first looping COASTER, I believe, was Revolution at SFMM in the early 1990's.

I've traded in my 2000 Giovanola for a 2002 Arrow X4D :)
My other car is now an Arrow X4D!

It was either Chicago Loop or Turn of the Century, but I'm not sure which one.

I believe my first "looping" coaster was V:TBC at PKD in 1999. In fact my first two looping coasters were both launched, Flight of Fear being my second. My first true loop on a traditional coaster was Anaconda. I guess I had a lot of "firsts" at PKD!

The Demon at Marriott's Great America in Santa Clara, CA. In the late 80's. I was so scared going into the first loop, also my stomach was lost somewhere on top of the first drop, but after going through the two loops and through the caves surrounding them (their gone now, damn!) the train entered the light filled, dizzying tunnel, and I proclaimed, "Whoooooooooohooohooooooooo!

I must have ridden that thing 14 times that night!

For anyone who knows me personally, that experience probably goes hand in hand as to why I love arrow coasters so much.

Demon at Six Flags Great America in 1988. I shall always remember the terror of that first ride upside down. And I will remember coming off of it and loving it.
