Steel roller coaster

Thunderhead, and they were pressuring me to ride it too. They told me I need to ride a roller coaster before middle school and it would make me cool. Well I thought if anything could make me fit in more, I should do it. When we were standing in line, I was so nervous that I thought I could not ride it. The only motivation I had was trying to fit in and peer pressure. While I was stepping into the cart on the roller coaster, I think it was the most nervous I have ever been. My whole body shaking,…

Roller coasters with loop-the-loops are generally rides that appeal to thrill seekers, however without the use of dynamics, these rides would not be able to function. A roller coaster loop-the-loop is a type of large scale centrifuge, as one approaches the loop, the rider's inertial velocity is straight ahead. However the track of the roller coaster keeps the car and therefore the rider, from travelling in a straight path. The force of a rider's acceleration pushes them from…

Roller skates first came into American history when James Plimpton, an inventor, found a more usual way to design on land skates. After roller skates had been made more functional The Coliseum in Chicago had opened a public skating rink. After that Madison Square Garden had become a skating rink. Hundreds of rink openings followed. The roller skates had been made for the rich only. During the golden age of roller skating, 1920’s- 1950’s, the roller rinks were segregated. Then the roller derby…

Tick! Tick! Tick! The metal monster slowed to a stop. I could see the entire park all the way to the horizon. Admiration flowed through me while looking at the view. I heard a click when WHOOSH, the roller coaster zoomed down the track. I’m in the second row. The unbelievable force as the roller coaster accelerates down the drop made my eyes bulge. The extreme amount of pressure made my heart fly to my head, and for all I know, my kidney may now be in my arm. I found myself smiling the whole…

Roller coasters have always intrigued me. It amazes me that people eagerly exchange the safety of the ground for the well sought out moment to be tossed through the air like debris in a hurricane, flying around in the sky. Someone at some point in history thought that people would enjoy such crazy experiences, and that person engineered what some of the first of these terrifying machines. What I find most interesting about these marvelous death machines is precisely the thrill and excitement of…

Everyone has fears, some have many some have none. People can fear many things like spiders, snakes, heights and much more. My biggest fear is roller-coasters. I was terrified but I knew I had to conquer my fear. I was waiting in line. My heart was pounding, the clicking of the chains pulling the ride made me more startled. The line was moving faster and faster. I was up next. My time had arrived; we were seated in our boats. We were fastened in. The ride started, my fear was going to be…

real-life baseball. Our ride has an average speed of 65 m/s (meters per second).

Skating My Way When will we get there? I think over and over again while closing my eyes, listening to the noises. Hearing engines flying across the roaring road. For when we get there I’ll be able to hear the loud music and the wheels move across the floor as people skate. Me I can’t skate at all unless you can count hanging onto the walls skating. As we finally get there I see someone that I would’ve never expected to see. A girl my age with a bob-cut and hot pink highlights. “Hey…

I waited, very shaky in the long line to go on Rockin’ Rollercoaster. It was a warm day where the sun was shining down and I was pacing back and forth the whole morning in the hotel room. I had terrible butterflies in my stomach. Waiting in line felt like forever, but in all reality not much time had past. I waited and waited. I felt like one of those cartoon characters who is standing around waiting for something awful to happen. I looked up at my dad sniffing and wiping the cold tears that…
