Six Flags Magic Mountain

Welcome to Six Flags Magic Mountain.

Really like the look of the entrance plaza.

First ride of the day is the Revolution.

You have to love old school loopers.

Let's go ride X2 now.

This has to be one of the most insane coasters I have ever ridden.

The trains rotate and make you face straight down as you drop off the lift.

The coaster is very trippy.  Good luck figuring out the course while you are riding.

Viper was next.

This is one of the few remaining major Arrow loopers.

While not the smoothest, it is a lot of fun and a lot history.

Time for TATSU.

This flyer is crazy big.

Flying around the tower.

The size of the pretzel loop is crazy.

I really enjoy this coaster.  I wish the loading procedure was faster though.

Ninja is a must ride for me.

Arrow suspended coasters are becoming quickly extinct.  It is nice to have such a nice layout still available to ride.

Time to ride Superman.

The "coaster" now shoots you backwards out of the ice palace.

Apocalypse the Ride is a newer GCI wooden coaster.

This is a twisty wooden coaster.

Fun ride.

Goldrusher is the park's minetrain.

Riddler's Revenge is the park's gigantic stand-up coaster.

Big. Mean and Green.

Loop at that loop.

Probably the top of its class.

Green Lantern is a very bizarre coaster.

It is a free rotating cart.

I forgot how many times my seat flipped.

The park also has a Batman: the Ride.

It's pretty much like every other cloned Batman out there.

Colossus is a dual track wooden coaster (notice I didn't say racing).

This huge coaster was featured in National Lampoon's Vacation.

Scream! is the park's floorless coaster.

It's a really good layout.

The problem is that it gets overshadowed in a park with so many good coasters.

GOLIATH is an amazing hypercoaster.

It towers over everything, including Colossus.

So they decided to strap a drop tower on the side of Superman.

This is Lex Luthor's Drop of Doom - the current tallest drop ride in the world.

The final coaster in the park is Roadrunner Express.

This park is crazy big.  Had a good time, but I'm exhausted.

Six Flags Magic Mountain


Welcome to Six Flags Magic Mountain

Let's head to our first coaster of the day

YES!  The Revolution

Who doesn't love this movie star coaster?
It was featured in National Lampoon's Vacation at Wally World

I've wanted to ride this coaster for a long time

This coaster is so wrong.  The carts spin you and make you face down on the drop

You really have no idea which way is up during the duration of the ride

Sometimes you are going forward, sometimes backwards

This coaster is like nothing else

The next coaster on the loop was NINJA

The classic Arrow looper was a lot of fun

Moving on up the mountain, the next coaster was TATSU

TATSU is a B&M flying coaster

This pretzel loop is insane

It was a lot of fun

The next coaster on the top of the mountain was Superman: Ultimate Escape

It's always a lot of fun to go over 100mph

The other coaster on top of the mountain is NINJA

I love the old school suspended coasters.  They're becoming rare

The park is in the process of building a new GCI wooden coaster

It looks like it will be a lot of fun

Time for a super inverted boomerang - Deja Vu

It is crazy tall and the vertical lifts are unnerving

The next coaster was Riddler's Revenge

This B&M stand up coaster is the largest in the nation

Next door is Batman: the ride.  A B&M inverted coaster

Another movie star coaster is in this area - Colossus
It was also featured in National Lampoon's Vacation

It basically dominates the skyline on this side of the park

A coaster that seems to get overlooked is SCREAM

SCREAM is a B&M floorless coaster

One of my favorite coasters is Goliath

This Giovanola hypercoaster seems to tower over the park

It is so fast and a lot of fun

A "SIX FLAGS" day was definitely had.
