Last week I took DD to Six Flags Worlds of Adventure. I hate roller coasters but I had to ride them with DD. We rode a few of the wooden ones, then she decided she wanted to ride an upside down coaster. I convinced her that next year she'd be ready, not now. I need to prepare my stomach for them next year. I think a simple one like the Double Loop would be the best start, for me atleast. Pretty soon, she's gonna be riding all of them. I need to find her a riding partner. :D
BTW, while we were there, my cousins waited in line for 2.5 hours to ride X-Flight. That's just plain nuts! But they both said it was worth it. :)

you could borrow my DD. I'm running out of excuses not to go on those things.

Take me take me! I'll ride anything and everything! And love to go one stuff with kids! They don't mind my screaming and laughing at the same time!
We just got back from Knoebel's and my littlest one was tall enough for both coasters! He is 4! Must say he will not be riding the Phonix anytime soon! Not because he didn't like it, he loved it! But I had to hold on to him way too tight! and still his butt left his seat!
But the twister was just right!

Spinning, my son was 3 (barely) when he went on Phoenix, he loved it! You are supposed to go out of the seat, its the way it was designed...
My DD (now 4, almost 5) went on her first upside down coaster yesterday at Hershey, the SooperdooperLooper!
My son was 4 when he did Rock n Roller Coaster....
(I have tall kids!)

I know Cindy! For me that is great but at one spot he was almost standing! That feeling I didn't like for him! He is tall and skinny!
Do you go to Knoebel's a lot? We go every year! LOVE IT!

In a way, I ride them with her for my peace of mind. While at 6 Flags she rode a couple of coasters w/o me, but I was really nervous about it. I need to ride them more for me than for her benefit. :)
