Well, last time I was there I was real young and my head was too small prolly, but I did have it back.

i have rode roller coasters b4. its not my first time. ive ridden the racers, top gun, flight of fear, the beast and some at cedar point but i can never get over that in line nervousness. and then climbing the hill it kills me. i always like the ride once its done but that big drop is murder for me

Well wednesday is one of the slowest days at kings island so you might get lucky tommorow it may be slower

Me and heights don't get along so roller coasters are not my idea of a good time.

[USAMPFREAK]

so im not "scared" of them but i get incredibly nervous in line and it makes me very suceptable to getting sick.

i hate that first hill the rest is normally ok.

so basically i wanna know if u guys have any tips to keep me from gettin worked up and not enjoying this day. i want to like rollercoasters

Dude then if it's still there you gotta ride The BEAST.

x2

and to the OP I have ridden most of the rides at KD and Busch and still hate rollercoasters, mainly cuz of the heights > me. only thing I can suggest is to just keep a steady convo going with ur girl and not think about the line/ride ahead, until that first hill lol, I hate the anticipation of the first hills as well.

i need to thank all of u. i went into the day yesterday with my head high and confident. i was ready

so the coasters i rode in order.

adventure express, racers, flight deck, back lot stunt coaster, flight of fear, vortex and finally firehawk.

back lot, vortex and firehawk i had never rode b4

unfortunately firehawk got the best of me and almost turned my stomach inside out. but i held it in. i was ready to ride diamondback but i could barely walk after firehawk.

i had fun tho on the coasters (for once). and for those that have not rode firehawk... do it. its an amazing feeling

as for the ones i didnt ride. son of beast was closed (of course), beast is just waaaaaay to rough, and invertigo we just never got to

anyway thanks guys for the words of encouragement. it means a lot to me that i can finally beat these coasters
