Went to Six Flags today. Had not been in going on 20 years. Some of the old rides were still there, but rode a new one today.

Watch the first one to get an idea on how tall the first drop is. But I think the second one is a bit better.

Just to get an idea as to how high you are on that first drop, that is I-30 off to the right. What was "really scary" (as if it could get any worse) you'll note how the train stops about half way through, about to go into a steep left hand turn. For those in the front cars, your half way into the turn and they stop the car for a second or two. You just went from 85 mph and in a mechanical tornado to a dead stop then hanging out of the cart ready to fall to your death! Then as a reprive from falling you get round two of rollercoaster whiplash.

Watch this one in full screen!



Not as clear in full screen.


Heres their blurb on it:

kinda surprised this one hasn't made it up yet, you go up backwards, then roll under the support rails at the apex of the ride, then looking at the ground as you flip and twist, best coaster I've ever been on
