Coaster reviews

Pointless

Did it for the credit. I love stealing people's children to ride these with.

Lap Bar Location Duration Rattle Dead spots

Classic Ride. There really is nothing to really hate about this ride except for how old it's getting now. It's a really simple layout that runs through the park's terrain going up and down hills. Pretty intense loop which I was not expecting. Fun experience.

Inversions Fun Duration Headbanging Harness Discomfort

Fun family coaster. I just really wish they would ditch the "comfort" collars like premier did with Ice Breaker in Orlando. Really fun winding inversions and turn and you get to go around twice. This ride duels everytime (unlike the far superior dueling coaster in the same park) which is great. Solid addition to Magic Mountain's already stacked lineup.

Inversions Nice surprise! Location Too short Layout

Full Throttle is a pretty fun ride but the length kills it. Could've had a much longer terrain coaster of sorts rather than a 30 second ride with an absolute buzzkill at the end. Like WHAT? WHO DECIDED TO PUT BRAKES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FINAL DROP? The airtime would've been insane. We can only wish what full throttle could've been, but it is what it is. It was pretty nice going in with no spoilers and getting that reverse launch into the hill over the loop. Fun ride but TOO SHORT.

Location Intensity Duration Capacity Harness

Tatsu is easily the best flying coaster out there. It's just infinitely better than all of those baby Manta and Superman clones. A 124 FOOT TALL PRETZEL LOOP? This is still the only element I have ever greyed out on. That's just how stupidly intense this is. It also has a nice first drop and many wonderful and graceful elements (until you hit the pretzel loop) all the way to the final brake run. Great overall ride but don't ride if you have positive g-force. I Loved It!

Capacity Pace Intensity Headbanging

Silver Bullet is on the lower tier of B&M inverts but is still a great ride. The main complaint is the very shallow first drop. You only gradually pick up speed and don't rip straight down it like Banshee. After this drop though, the great elements with good pacing come right after. So much positive gs in the inversions and final helix is insane. If it was taller and had a steeper drop, this may be one of the best rides in b&m's catalog.

Launch Fun Intensity Too short Capacity Reliability

Xcelerator has the best launch of any ride i have ever ridden. This thing launches you so fast that it feels like you teleport from the station to the highest point of the top hat. It's a very short ride but i'll take it after one hell of a launch.

Airtimes First Drop Fun Capacity

Wow. Just wow. Ghost Rider is easily the best wooden coaster i've ever ridden and is very high up in my credit rankings. It has great moments of airtime and an amazing first drop. If you can, ride this thing at night in the back row. It's an out of control experience. After the GCI retrack, this thing has been running great. If you end up being lucky enough, you may get the trim brakes turned off for the second half. You absolutely haul through the wooden structure with a layout full of airtime and lateral gs. The many headchopper moments with all of the wood supports adds to the sense of speed throughout the whole ride. Absolutely amazing ride.

Airtimes Nice surprise! Ejectors

full of ejectors

First Drop Intensity Smoothness

I've been on this thing so many times I've lost count. And no matter what time of day or night, it's phenomenal to me. Do NOT skip it!
