[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 289081, member: 134"] Oh yeah, that totally sounds like Viper! Now let's talk about my favorite coasters at Magic Mountain... Viper is still the only coaster that truly made me feel discombobulated, specifically after the 3rd loop. Love that thing and hope they never remove it. Goliath is the only coaster I've seen a friend black out on briefly, which was too funny. X-2 defies logic of what is happening in the moment, and single handedly has my favorite front seat drop moment. Twisted Colossus honors and betters the glory of its former self, plus is essentially twice as long now. Full Throttle has an insanely large loop that feels like you are stalling out on. Tatsu I've only gotten to ride on twice, and that thing freaks me out being belly to the ground flying. Plus its loop puts G-Forces in places you've never felt! Ninja is slow, only good from the front car, but my son's first coaster so it holds a special place in my heart. Plus it's got good visuals zipping through the trees. Revolution was great, then got shoulder harnesses that ruined it, and now went back to a lap bar and is great again. Wonderfully built into the terrain. Batman was my first hanging coaster where your legs dangled, but it's showing its age, especially with the Prince soundtrack Apocolypse is a woody, and ya gotta love those. Especially fun is it does a flying pass through the load dock. The rest... Superman is only good if there's no line. Took my son on that without him having seen the launch, and he was very angry with me after! Gold Rusher is an oldie, you have to marvel at the gum post (where years and years of gum are stuck), and it's only redeeming feature is the helix and the end that pulls way more G's than any basic coaster should. Drop of Doom is fun but again not worth the wait. Green Lantern is uh, about as good as the movie? Yikes. The Riddler should be awesome as it's massive and long and a stand-up coaster, but your head rattles between the 'protectors' like a pinball in pop bumpers and I get a headache while riding every single time. Scream (Parking Lot: The Ride) I already mentioned is too smooth and fluid for it's own good. It simply lacks any thrills. Opening this summer... West Coast Racers is a dual track racer that essentially looks like a launch coaster version of Twisted Colossus without the heights. Eager to try it out. I'm telling you folks, if you ever visit SoCal and don't feel like paying exorbitant prices as Disneyland, you need to drive out of your way to Magic Mountain. It's WAY cheaper, has all those coasters I mentioned, AND that's not even mentioning the other rides it has. I've simply never had a bad time there over the years, and I've been going since I was a pre-teen back in the early 80's. [/QUOTE]
