Riding a non-backwards coaster...BACKWARDS!

I remember I read a few years ago about a way to ride MF and all other Intamin coasters with lap-bars backwards. I've never tried it, though.

Well, you could always go to SFGAm and ride Amereican Eagle backwards- for real.

Sure, it's not that great of a coaster anymore but going "backwards blue" is interesting at times.

I haven't gotten this far in my TRs, and doubt I'll even mention it, but Ghostrider was fun whilst playing a game involving cheetos and having my head turned around (don't worry folks, I practice safe coastering, so don't start conspiracy theorizing. It wasn't anything dangerous).
I've ridden the Screamin' Eagle @ SFStL backwards when they had it turned around for a bit one season. It was awesome. They called it "The Eagle Screamin' (It's Backwards)" once they turned it back around, the sign stayed that way for a long time, silly SF. *** Edited 3/20/2005 4:54:18 AM UTC by Geewhzz***

Get the front seat of Millennium Force, and turn around as your at the top of the lift and beginning the drop.

Heh...that was a lot of fun. By the end of the ride I think one of the Cheetos got passed all the way to the back of the train. I'm not sure I would have wanted to eat it though, given how many people touched it on the way back there. ;)

Yeah and fall out of the train...that's a stupid damn thing to do...people like that who screw things up for the rest of us!


Haha no I'm not giving Patrick the finger

Ive done this on S:Ros at Darien Lake, the one summer I was an employee we had an employee ride time kinda thing, and my manager said I had to try it, needless to say It was quite the aqward experience riding near 70mph trying to stay looking backwards through the whole ride. I've never tried it on any other coaster though.
