Default Any coaster enthusiasts among us?
I'm a huge fan of rollercoasters, and although I'm pretty young (15), I've ridden about 70 different coasters.

Personal favorites:

Wooden--The Beast (King's Island), Lightning Racer (Hersheypark)
Steel--Alppengeist (BGW), Apollo's Chariot (BGW), Phantom's Revenge (Kennywood)

Are there any other coaster enthusiasts on the board? Even if you're not, what are your favorite coasters?

The Cyclone at Coney Island in NYC. The first drop is the best of all the rollercoasters I've ever been on. I have spent time checking out rollercoasters wherever I happen to be n the country (or the world). I am partial to the older wooden or steel rides. The newer spirals don't do as much for me. I guess I prefer the g forces to centrifigal force. Rollercoasters ROCK.

The Nemesis at Alton Towers; when I took my girlfriend on that last year was so funny

Air at Alton Towers; it isn't really a thrill seekers ride but it was something different and I liked it!

Pepsi Max at Blackpool Pleasure Beach; I agree that it isn't all that it's cracked up to be, but going on it at night is awesome, being right up there and seeing all of Blackpool lit up is cool!

Shockwave (I think it's called) at Drayton Manor; stand-up rollercoaster, really good!

Yeah, one day I'm gonna get myself to USA and try out the rollercoasters there, I love them!

I love them! And luckily I live within two hours of at least 6 amusement parks! Busch Gardens is great...Kumba, Montu, Gwazi (it's an old fashioned wooden coaster that has two tracks). Disney has Space Mountain and Thunder Mountain (they are both OK). Plus at Universal Studios there is the Back to the Future ride, the Spiderman ride, the Incredible Hulk ride, Tower of Terror (I think that is the name of it!) and a few more. And Sea World has Kraken. Then, when I go to New Jersey there is Six Flags and also another Six Flags in Georgia.
