Hey ! I'd like to know on which ride can we find this system (you can buy a dvd of you and your friends riding the coaster). (www.cdride.com) I know we can find it on these coasters : Xcelerator - Knotts Berry Farm Side Winder - Knotts Berry Farm Raptor - Cedar Point Sheikra - Bush Gardens Africa

Well i went to Knotts two days ago and i can say that family coasters really sucks there ! Pony express is a real bad ride ! Like the other spinning coaster. Like Jaguard... So if you wanna ride kiddie rides, you should go to Disneyland and Knotts. Six Flags Magic Mountain needs a real intense coaster this time. (But they made cdonride on Xcelerator, i think it's better than pictures onride, Six Flags Magic Mountain should do this on X2, Goliath and Tatsu, that'd be fun - they also should do it at SF Great Adventure on Kingda Ka i love this ride) So happy to ride 2 new coasters in 2 years though... And Terminator will be a great ride. But I agree with you when u say SFMM needs more flat rides ! I already bought my new season pass for 2009, could someone explain me the new flash pass system please?

Terminator is already a family coaster. Hope this time they will think about thrillseeker ! We need Kingda Ka style or the first B&M dive for a Six Flags like "Griffon" and "Sheikra"... Please don't forget us... There is a lack of free-fall in Magic too Don't forget the freefall towers (the tallest ones?) in the next years please.

I was at Magic last wednesday. It was great ! We went to Deja Vu at the opening. Then : Riddler's x1 (no waiting - 2 trains on track) Batman x1 (no waiting - 2 trains on track) Colossus x1 (15mn waiting - 1 train and only 1 track open) Scream x3 (no waiting - 2 trains on track) Gold Rusher (no waiting- 1 train on track) Goliath x2 (5mn waiting - 2 trains on track) Tatsu x1 (1 flash pass - 2 trains on track - a little waiting cause of bad/unexperienced operators) X2 x1 (90mn waiting - 2 trains on track) Tastsu x3 (3 flash passes - 2 trains on track - a little waiting cause of bad/unexperienced operators) I can say the longest queue lines were for Tatsu and X2. We waited 1h30 for X2. Better than in 2002. The park was clean. I can say though to have a regular frozen lemonade for 6 dollars is really expensive... And a bad wait at Johnny rocket's as usual (around 1 hour). A good day to ride !

Good for Thomas Town A shame to wait 3 hours in lines for X2, it seems that nothing has changed for this ride ! Looking forward the new 2009 coaster...

Batman = 50 mph Ninja = 55mph Revolution = 55 mph Colossus = 62 mph Tatsu = 62 mph Scream = 63 mph Deja Vu = 65 mph Riddler's = 65 mph Viper = 70 mph X1 and X2 = 76 mph Goliath = 85 mph Superman the Escape = 100 mph At least X2 is one of the fastest coaster in the park !

I'm happy to see X back ! It's a one of a kind coaster in the US... But I don't consider this ride as a new coaster at all... Moreover, new trains do not make a ride better. I am sad to hear that we will probably have a Batman Dark Knight wild mouse clone or/and a family coaster... Thrillseekers need new rides !!! (no more freefall in the park that's missing ! grrrr) Six Flags tend to become a Knotts like. I don't wanna see a Pony express, a BTDK, or a Tony Hawk (with a lot of waiting for no thrills) for 2009, but a Kingda Ka clone (with two loading/unloading stations) would be perfect to replace the too bad Superman the Escape... But I don't think it's on the plan... I'll ride Tatsu, Riddler's, Goliath and Scream all day in next years. Ok the new trains must be expensive, but X2 is the price of a new coaster for only a few improvements... Even if I'm happy to see it back, I won't often ride it (cause the waiting lines for X2 used to be the longest in the park). Will we have to wait until 2015 to have a real good new coaster?

my top 10 : 1/ Tatsu (SFMM) 2/ Katun (Mirabilandia - Italy) 3/ Goliath (SFMM) 4/ Xcelerator (Knotts) 5/ Silverstar (Europa Park - Germany) 6/ Thunder Dolphin (Laqua - Tokyo) 7/ Montu (Bush Gardens Africa) 8/ Scream (SFMM) 9/ Stampida (Port Aventura - Spain) 10/ Goliath (Walibi in the netherlands ex"Six Flags Holland")

Do you know if there will be a Flash pass line for X2 ? I had a flight pass for june to ride X2 with the 2008 xtreme season pass. And I hope we will have news on the next coaster, they should work on it soon if it is planned for 2009... Mr Shapiro, please let us know what will be the next coaster ! (I'm really waiting to see clones of KindaKa and Griffon in the park in the next years, as well as S&S Towers (like Power Tower) and more flat (Matterhorn, Top Spin, Octopus, Fly away, ...), new ride like Skyride or monorail, and some theming (Please do something on Scream, one of the best coaster of the park).

I hate those coasters : Flashback (bye bye), Superman the escape, Psyclone (bye bye), Goudurix. Worst B&M for me was Iron Wolf at Great America The worst of all is Goudurix (Parc Asterix in France).

I don't think Tony hawk and Dark knight will come in 2009 (I hope not) ! I am sure Magic Mountain is more original than that. Tatsu is unique and so popular ! B&M = well there is still one missing : the Vertical coaster (like Sheikra and Griffon in Bush Gardens parks) could be a giant addition in the new few years... A new kind of coasters in the Six Flags ! Intamin = We could still hope for a Kingda Ka like, that would be perfect to replace the not so good Superman (and there are no loops on this) as it is higher and faster. And like you, I think a wooden coaster like El Toro is missing (Colossus is not really good and Psyclone was so bad).
