My first big coaster was Scorpion at BGT.  I graduated to the loop before I rode any other bigger rides.  I came home and went to SFGAm ( it was a SF park by that time (1990)) and rode Whizzer, and Demon.  My parents were so proud of me, I tried to ride Shockwave, but I was too short by like 2 inches.  I was a weird kid...
