individual inversions, or inversions total? Like for instance, if I ride Deja Vu, does that count as 3 or 6 inversions in this specific count. If it's specific inversion I have to be close to 1000 if not more, but individual, there is no way I could count :)

60 demon rides in 1 day. Oh... the sig. But mine was just this past Nov. We were in WDW to march in the 3:00 parade, and the second last day, a RnR worker named Whitney told me to go on it (i was waiting for a friend to get off). I rode it 28 times that day. The next day we went back to WI and before we left I rode ExEv 10 times (back row's awesome) and RnR 21 more times. so i have... 3 x 49 ... 147 inversions
Let's see... 12 days til colonoscopy (appt got moved :D )
No school today :D

Off-topic, but on ExEv you have to get the back row on the left . You will not be disappointed. The g's going backwards are incredible. But back on topic, I want to go on Demon, BTR, IW (just for credit), SUF, can't think of any others with inversions.

Oops! My bad, I fixed it. :lol: So my cousin this year is coming from Florida to visit, I'm thinking about taking her on BTR. That will be her first inverted coaster. She lives down close to Orlando yet never has never been on DD Ice or Fire.
