    Favorite Roller Coasters and Thrill Rides!

    What's your favorite Coaster or thrill ride???

    I have a few favorites...Top Thrill Dragster in Cedar Point Ohio...over 100 miles an hour, over 400 feet high...nice rush!

    Alpengeist at Bush Gardens in Virginia was also awesome...I love suspended coasters.

    I haven't been on many but here in Florida ... I love "The Hulk" at Islands of Adventure Orlando, "Fire and Ice dueling dragons" also in Islands of Adventure and here locally in Tampa

    "SheiKra" - In 2005, Busch Gardens Africa (Tampa, FL) introduced the world to a one-of-a-kind experience: 200 feet up, 90 degrees straight down. And that was just the beginning. As the nation’s first dive coaster, SheiKra raised the bar with first-of-a-kind elements like a true 90-degree drop, an Immelmann loop and a second vertical dive into an underground tunnel.

    Now, technology has raised that bar even higher, introducing SheiKra’s fans to an even greater thrill. In June 2007, Busch Gardens reintroduced SheiKra to the world with a new twist: “floorless” cars that allow riders an unobstructed view of the 70 mph rush.

    The name SheiKra evokes the power and speed of an African hawk as it twists and plunges - giving riders a 70 mph, adrenaline-pumping experience like no other. At 200 feet, SheiKra takes the crown as Florida's tallest roller coaster.

    Floorless SheiKra: Nothing above you but air. Nothing below you but earth. And like nothing you've ever experienced

    I haven't been to many theme parks, but I love Kings Island in Cincinnati. My favorite roller coaster is The Beast, the longest wooden roller coaster. I also like the Vortex, Tomb Raider (a very different experience), and outer limits. Unfortunately Paramount was bought out and now the park is below average since Paramount had the rights to all of the special effects and stuff.
