First Time to 6 Flags

[Trumpetman]

Ok guys my moment of deprivation is soon to be over. Im going ot six flags tomorrow and I was wondering what tips you guys might have for riding rollercoasters. Never really been on a rollercoaster so I don't know what to expect.
thanks

First I suggest you try this for spinning rides;

1 - Stand up near your bed.
2 - Spin. That's right! Turn round and round!
3 - Do it as fast as you can. Now try to stand.
4 - You should fall to your bed and feel like you want to vomit.
5 - Ok, that's for spinning rides, time that by 10.

For speed rides you should find a really long slide, as high as you can, make sure it's wet so you slide down fast with no control.

Time that by 100.

Eeeek! Let's just say I hate roller coasters.

Dude, you'll have a blast. Roller coasters are kick-ass.

Start with the biggest, baddest coaster there, and sit in the front. Make it a test of your manhood. If you can face that, then you'll know you can face anything else in the whole park, and you'll have a great time.

I'm terrified of heights and falling -- that's why I love roller coasters. It's a chance to play chicken with fear and make fear blink first.

Agreed. I remember watching a documentary about roller coasters a few years ago and it said that your 9X more likely to do die in a car wreck then you are to die on a roller coaster. So just remember the drive to the roller coaster is actually more dangerous then the roller coaster itself.

First time I road a roller coster I was 16 and I was terrfied still. I was about to back out right before I got on, then a 5 year old that was getting on looked at me funny so I got on. So just look at all the kids 2-3 feet tall getting on and it'll make you feel a lot better.

And that's probably closer to 9,000 times more likely to die in a car wreck then a roller coaster...
