    Simple, Just say what your top 10 roller coasters are that you've ridden, and where the coster is found

    1. Fahrenheit - Hershey Park - Hershey, Pennsylvania
    A really good coaster. It's probably the shortest i've ever ridden, But it makes up for it with its 90-Degree-Angle Lift hill at the beginning, followed by a 90-Degree-Angle drop into 4 inversions.

    2. Maverick - Cedar Point - Sandusky, Ohio
    Another great coaster, it features a regular lift hill followed by a 90-Degree-Angle drop into twists, turns and a canyon followed by a takes-you-by-surprise 80 MPH launch.

    3. Top Thrill Dragster - Cedar Point - Sandusky, Ohio
    Wow this one was amazing, 120 MPH over a large Upside down U Shape makes it the worlds second tallest coaster (I think Kingda Ka is first) but still holds the record for world's fastest coaster.

    4. Rock 'n Roller Coaster - Disney's Hollywood Studios - Orlando, Florida
    Another good coaster, Just 70-MPH LIM Launch coaster, but it launches you into A Cobra Roll, Regular loop, and a Twist in that order, At the same time pumping Aerosmith into your head, in the dark, with stage lights and lasers flashing all over the place.

    5. Phantom's Revenge - Kennywood - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
    A great coaster, it takes you up a large hill then at the top it drops you into a 120 degree angle banked turn and then up another hill, barely missing the supports of the nearby coaster, Thunderbolt twice, and then through a small helix and back to the station.

    6. Magnum XL200 - Cedar Point - Sandusky, Ohio
    A great coaster from Cedar Point. actually, they manage to hide the Top Thrill sized lift hill rather well. So well, in fact, that i actually didn't notice the gargantuan hill until we were going up. i even recorded the time with my watch; Two Minutes going up, Ten seconds going back down.

    7. Great Bear - Hershey Park - Hershey, Pennsylvania
    Being the only suspended coaster in the park, Great Bear makes up for it with its massive size and multiple inversions.

    8. Wicked Twister - Cedar Point - Sandusky, Ohio
    A pretty good coaster, it launches you at 60 MPH up in a Superman style coaster for all you Six Flags fans, gradually picking up speed until it gets to a heart-pounding, groin-hurting 90 MPH.

    9. Racers - Kennywood - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
    A great coaster that has two side by side trains that seem to race each other
    hence the name.

    10. Superdooperlooper - Hershey Park - Hershey, Pennsylvania
    This one wasn't great but I guess I liked it because it was my five year old little brother's fist coaster.

    I've only ever ridden like 5 and the only one I can remember is The Matterhorn when my friend took me to Disney. I remember we rode it like 10 times because we had like VIP passes and didn't have to wait in line. I was like 10 though so I don't remember much about it.

    Yeah, not many people have ever been on ten roller coasters...
    The best one I've been on is this one at thorpe park and it was indoors, with blinds corners and drops and ****. It was sorta like raving while on on a 'coaster. It was fantastic.

    3. Top Thrill Dragster
    4. Magnum
    5-10. All the other things at Cedar Point.

    It's really the only place I've been to, but I live near it so it's OK.

    Guys.
    Goliath @ Six Flags Magic Mountain, CA: 255 ft. drop, nearly 90 degrees. And can't forget X2 @ Six Flags Magic Mountain, CA: full 90 degree drop, and the seats uncontrollably spin. Others being Superman @ Magic Mountain
    Deja Vu @ Magic Mountain: two 90 degree drops, and you do the whole things forward AND backward, going throught he terminal at amazing speeds.
    Riddlers Revenge @ Magic Mountain where you stand on the roller coaster.
    Batman @ Magic Mountain where there is no floor.
    The list goes on. Bottom line is, Magic Mountain is epic.

    Hydra- Dorney Park
    Rock N' Rolla Coaster- Disneyworld
    King Da Ka- Six Flags NJ
    Storm Runner- Hershey Park
    Top Thrill Dragster- Cedar Point

    BTW- Has anyone seen the new coaster, "The Green Lantern" at Magic Mountain? It comes out next year, but it looks awesome. While going through the coaster, your ride spins you upside down over and over. It looks insane.

    YouTube - Three new roller coasters for Six Flags Magic Mountain in 2011 Superman Backwards Green Lantern

    Skip to 1:00 if you want to just see the Lantern, as that video also shows the backwards Superman that is coming out. Anyway, looks pretty damn epic does it not?
