What's Your Sentimental Coaster?
Any of the woodies at Kennywood, as I have great memories of all three:
First coaster - Jack Rabbit
Slappin' Hands w/ my aunt - Racer
Riding with Grandpap - Thunderbolt.
Two that are no more, though it means I can't ride them anymore.
Sky Streak at Boblo which scared the hell out of me at seven or eight..
Turn of the Century which started my enthusiasm. Demon just doesn't have the vicious airtime that the rabbit hills of TOTC had.

Technicaly I have two, Whizzer-being my first coaster (in 2000) . Raging Bull-the coaster that made me a coaster lover!
-----------------
The worlds a rollercoaster
And I’m not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care, but
My hands are busy in the air- incubus

Any thing at SFGAM excluding Deja Vu, V2, and Whizzer. American Eagle being at the top of the list though being my first coaster.
The Crystal Beach COMET, before it went to Great Escape. The Lift hill was up against a raised break-wall for Lake Erie, which made it seem even higher than it was. Now that it's at Great Escape the mountainside loses the whole feeling. ......Although, given the chance, I'll still ride it again.
Revolution my first coaster with a loop!!
Viper @ SFMM
-----------------
Although I'm a SFMM 2001 season pass holder, I can't ride X because I'm from Europe :(:(:(
I would have to say, the Giant Dipper at SCBB also. It was my first and I still love that ride. Man did that tunnel scare me the first time!

the coney island cyclone by far, it is the only coaster which allows re-rides and is an ACE coaster classic.
King Kobra at PKD (now residing in So. America) - my first inversion, and my first Anton. Phoenix - my fav. woodie, and a monument to coaster preservation. Montu, the ride responsible for my "transformation"...

The Dragon Coaster at Rye Playland. It was my first adult woodie, and every time I ride it I still love it as much as I did when I was a child. It may not be a thriller, but it sure is one gorgeous ride.
I have to say mine is Gemini at CP. It was my first real coaster.

I hate saying Magger again but it's so true....the first Hyper, the start of CP's ascendence to what it is today, Magger is it. I still love the trains, the station, the "calculator" font rules signs leading up to the station. They may build 200 *metre* coasters in the next decade but Magger will stil have that *feeling* surrounding it. Every time I climb the steps leading to the station I feel like I'm 12 all over again :-)
Magnum will always be the "King of Coasters" at the Point for me...
-------------
* The Legend @ HW
* Superman: Ride of Steel @ SFNE
* Mondial Top Scan
First Coaster- Rolling Thunder at SFGAM then it left
Fav. Coaster- tie between deja vu and raging bull
-----------------
2002- Wishfull thinking has ended, nothing for SFGAM
Top Gun at PGA is my sentimental favorite. It was my first inverted and I was blown away by it. I don't care how big or advanced coasters get, TG will always be one of my favorites. The final helix on this ride has *yet* to be topped.
