yup, i hate that. i rarely ride X2 though, but i always remember that's what it does to me. I love X2 but being 6’2 and having a jock frame. It does get uncomfortable once in awhile. You have to know how to ride it and were to hold legs in. The second raven turn I always hold my legs against the seat for that reason. Ok another note, Saturday my partner and I took a trip to the park. We had a great day till we rode Batman. I’m a coaster freak, always have been always will be. I can ride anything, nothing makes me sick. OH HOW THAT CHANGED! Walked to Batman and of course no line. I thought hell yeah front row, sandals off wind breezing through my feet, loved it! Till the train came back in the station, I could not get off fast enough. A ride was finally going to made me PUKE! I was so upset, Batman made me so nauseous I ran head first into a trash can. My partner was laughing so hard and even took a pic, I wanted to kick his ass!

I thought some people were talking about a dual loading station like Kingda Ka or Manta? And that could be the trick question. Yes it might have a station like Tatsu or KK! It would make loading and dispatching for this beast better. Most people here are talking about waiting in line for 2 different rides like the old Colossus. For now the speculation will continue, till we see the station and track work.

It's fair to say that you can't truly judge a coaster before you ride it. Animations and POV's never do a ride justice. But complaints about how it will look are totally legitimate. Especially regarding Twisted Colossus. We all know how the ride looks as it currently stands. This makes it very simple to get an idea of how it will look with lower turnarounds and whatnot. Will it still dominate? Sure, the lift hill and first turnaround will. But the last half wont quite as much as it used to. With all that said, the excitement factor is going to be off the charts with those twists right next to the parking lot. We all know what coaster people will be bolting for. Hope this takes some load off X2. Nicely Put, Thank You!

So before any more is leaked or announced, I want to post my final hopes and predictions, and I'm still pushing for everything I've said. Although beating the record for length seems a bit crazy for Six Flags (especially after seeing how they built only half of YOLOcoaster), do you guys think any of this is a possibility? Could California finally be getting an airtime machine?? Could we finally be getting a World-Class, top ten coaster in California?? I'm getting excited! It's possible, one can only hope!

HAHA, shoot i'll keep it old school with rct2! Would love to try no limits but don't know where to start. How to start no limits.. Step one: Start a building a coaster. Step two: Realize It will kill people. Step three: Give up and throw hat down in frustration. Step four: Repeat. LOL! That sounds about right! Or it could be step four, take my Synergy Bat to the monitor.

I come from a family of arbor’s and they can make trees look much much better with a little trim work. They shape big trees into umbrellas and do other funky stuff to them. I’m not say remove trees, what I am saying is start trimming trees. I know they provide shade and landscape beauty and are environmentally good but it is SFMM responsibility to keep up the maintenance on the tree’s and shrubbery to avoid something like this and unfortunately. This accident and the Revolution tree accident is going to be the one to start this process.[/color]

Well hopefully SFMM will now clear some of the tree's around these rides. In my opinion, i think they should closed the park January and February and take care of the arbor and other needed fixing up! Revolution would be next ride for a tree to fall on the track and cause some damage. I love this park and it was my first employment, so it hits hard when something goes wrong regardless if it was nature or mechanical.
