I love watching Insane Coaster Wars. Usually every ride they show makes me think, "Wow! I need to go ride that coaster!" But I saw one in a recent episode that I don't think I could ever ride.

It's called Gravity Max and it's in Taiwan. Here's a video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4kuD_LGjioo
(There's some language in it...)

So...are there any coasters that are too extreme for you?

I'll ride Cobra every once in a while, but usually I just skip it. Boomerangs are the only coasters that I have ridden that give me motion sickness. I can go upside down forwards, but backwards in another story...

I find the backwards part is easier to ride than the forwards part...

I'll try any coaster once so none I'd refuse...at first. Now Gwazi is one I've ridden several times (before and after MF trains) and I pass on it every time I go now. Only exception to that is if I take someone new there or family that insists on riding it. Also SLCs are quite painful so it's one and done on those (for the credit).

I wouldnt say refuse to ride, more so reluctant to ride. And those would be maverick, I305 and ghostrider...all for different reasons...

I cannot think of a ride or roller coaster I will not ride. I'll ride anything at least once... in fact, I cannot think of a ride that I would skip after riding it once in a lifetime. If I go to a park, the goal is to ride everything on each trip, especially for parks that are further away.

The real question for me is which roller coaster I would refuse (or find great difficulty in) marathoning. I love a good challenge, so I'd give any ride a fair shot at marathoning, but there are some rides that are much easier to marathon than others. Heck, I'd attempt to marathon I-305 all day, etc. or Anaconda at KD, but I'd probably find the latter less enjoyable. Thoughts?
