Dodonpa would be my favorite roller coaster if it lasted longer. It was the fastest roller coaster in the world when it opened in 2001. It has since lost that record but still retains the world record for the highest accelleration at launch. It slightly worried me that I wasn't strapped in at the shoulders as this ride has a vertical drop. However as the ride is so fast the G-force pushes you right back into the seat. The speed of this roller coaster is amazing!
Eejanaika is the current world record holding roller coaster for most number of inverts (14). I believe it will very shortly loose this record to a roller coaster in the U.S. if it has not already done so.
On this roller coaster you are strapped in and your feet dangle free. At the start of the ride the floor slowly drops away leaving you hanging there and you are slowly taken backwards up the slope. Then things become a blurr! At the top of the first slope you are spun 90 degrees, from a sitting position looking back the way you came, so that you are looking straight down the first vertical drop and the ride is ON! After that I can't really remember what happened. It was definitely fun. Being longer would certainly make this coaster even better!
