Such a shame to lose this ride, it was the best coaster at Six Flags America. A long ride full of strong airtime and laterals and completely oozing with character. The twisted hills under the old flume ride were the highlights, as was the long unbanked final helix that'd pin you to the side of your seat for what felt like an eternity.

An absolute masterpiece of a ride. The layout is an out of control blitz of airtime and laterals, all while being the smoothest wooden coaster I've ri...

An absolute masterpiece of a ride. The layout is an out of control blitz of airtime and laterals, all while being the smoothest wooden coaster I've ridden so far. The helix finale is spectacular, it'll fold you over sideways in the best way.

Sure it's a one trick, but it's the best trick out there. Few elements can beat a hydraulic launch, and xcelerator gives you that and an ejector fille...

Sure it's a one trick, but it's the best trick out there. Few elements can beat a hydraulic launch, and xcelerator gives you that and an ejector filled top hat with only tiny comfortable lap bars holding you in.

One of the smoothest coasters on the planet, running trains with a pool noodle for a lap bar, with such an incredible airtime filled layout. This is one of the all time great coasters, the only thing preventing it from being best in the world is how quickly it ends.

Well exceeded my expectations! Fantastic airtime and laterals through the whole layout, and it's remarkably smooth for a ride so old. One of the best classic woodies still around.

The elements are all extremely weak, there's a strong and persistent rattle with some egregious potholes, the lift in the middle disrupts all pacing, and then the drop has no punch at all. It's a ride that goes through the motions without ever nailing anything. The launch is decent, average for an LSM. The best element is a random twisting airtime hill at the end of the first half, otherwise it's all based around inversions that manage to be too slow for positives or whip, and too fast for hangtime.

Fantastic ride, super fun start to finish. It tracks really smoothly for its age, but it is still a 30+ year old arrow so keep that in consideration. ...

Fantastic ride, super fun start to finish. It tracks really smoothly for its age, but it is still a 30+ year old arrow so keep that in consideration. The positives in the three vertical loops are incredible, I just really wish it was still allowed to run untrimmed (or less at least less trimmed) going into the second half.

X2 is entirely too rough to enjoy, after the first drop I spent all of my rides bracing to keep myself from getting my head bashed in. Tried multiple seats across the train in both inside and outside seats and I couldn't enjoy a single ride. Viper next door tracks immensely better and is a much more fun experience, which I was not expecting.

I was left speechless at the end of my first ride, this is a genuinely incredible coaster. Still runs glass smooth, incredibly intense, no headbanging, and just a nonstop flurry of positive Gs that brutalize your legs in the best way. If you're not a fan of stand ups then I could see why this wouldn't work out well, but if you set the harness correctly you can happily experience the best purely inversion based coaster ever built. I genuinely have no complaints, this is just about as good as a b&m can get.

Vest restraints make little to no difference in terms of comfort. You're still shaken to pieces from the awful track work, it's just not enjoyable. Horrendous ops as well, so no with no single rider queue it's something I always skip.

Fantastic ride, out of control start to finish. I don't love the restraints, they can easily hunch you over a bit and dig into your shoulders. The ops do ask if you're OK before it locks, but it's hard to tell before the ride starts how comfortable it's going to be. I also didn't find it rough, even on a wing seat. It's chaotic and throws you around for sure, but it doesn't beat you up by any means.

Way better than the gimmick it seems to be! The first few elements feel like a slightly smaller millennium force, fantastic first drop with strong positives at the bottom. The big drops all have nice airtime/pull, and the speed hill is fantastic. Flying through Tokyo speaks for itself. There is a very noticable rattle throughout the layout, though it's not enough to make a difference in enjoying the ride. One train only, which makes the line painfully slow.

A super special ride, extremely long, great airtime on the big hills, amazing sense of speed, and truly insane laterals. I didn't find the jank pain...

A super special ride, extremely long, great airtime on the big hills, amazing sense of speed, and truly insane laterals. I didn't find the jank painful as a lot seem to, it just added to the fun and charm. Capacity is awful (as is normal in Japan), but otherwise this is a near perfect ride.
