I was helicoptered off the hill yesterday and had to spend the night in hospital. A boarder skied through some slow signs and straight into my back and they found a spinal fracture. Luckily it turned out to be old

phew'- BAWB, not worried about an old spinal fracture, just a new one.....

Wood! They are so much more fucking scary, you are always afraid the are going to fly off the track, and the saftey restraint is always too loose, so you leave your seat. Metal are cool too because they are so extravagent, but I still like wood more.

Neither of them do much for me anymore... skiing park makes you immune to amusement park rides...

But out of the two, wood is definatly more intense because the rickity feeling. Metal is cool tho because of the speed factor.

I'm with Stevie on that, skiing like we do makes amusement parks on about the same level as changing your little sister's nappies. While some of you fags might find that pretty exciting, I don't. But yes, if I had to choose I would go with a wooden coaster, oldschool stylie.

Metal and wood are totally different, its like apples and oranges. Metal are smooth with loops and stuff and wooden are faster. They are both fun.

well, probably the only good part about living in Ohio is that im like an hour
away from Cedar point, and Six Flags is about five minutes away. Cedar point
has this new one this year, 420 feet high, 120 mph in 4 seconds. it accelerates
you out of the station, shoots you straight up a 410 feet high tower, over and
back down with a 270 degree rotation on the way back down. If you are ever in
ohio, take a day to go here. 16 rollercoasters, including Mellenium force, which
kicks soo much ass. Ohio is like the Alaska of amusement parks. oh yah,
kings Island is down about 3 hours away. they have sweet coasters too. and i
would say a good steel coaster is better most of the time. but a coaster like
Mean Streak, it is just fun to get the shit beat out of you on one of those.

Go to www.cedarpoint.com for picts.

seems to be that rollercoaster s would be more scary if they had a smoother ride. lots of them hurt little me because i get jarred around in the restraints. steep or rafting-style waterslides are where it's at.

I find metal coasters get boring real quick, the twists and loops all feel the same. It's all aboot riding shot gun on a wooden coaster where it's all aboot the ups and downs. Riding switch on a metal coaster is cool too though.

And AOE, BITE ME!
