Totopez Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 According to the website, YOLO is no longer an upcharge. On a platinum pass, you get one ride each on YOLO and Superman. X2 is still upcharge. https://www.sixflags.com/magicmountain/store/flash-pass That still sounds like an upcharge if I have to buy a Platinum pass. Also, does that mean that Superman is no longer available on the regular Flash Pass? Well, at least it's not an upcharge on top of the Platinum pass. But if you want to skip the line on those, you must get the platinum pass, correct. Personally, would prefer Six Flags to make a Diamond pass, where all rides are included, unlimited times. But thats because I don't live in the US, I visit one Six Flags park every two years or so, and when I do my single day there, I want to do all rides and preferrably re-rides.

singemfrc Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Well, at least it's not an upcharge on top of the Platinum pass. But if you want to skip the line on those, you must get the platinum pass, correct.Though I don't like it, I now see a reason to get a platinum pass and probably will end up getting one on my next visit, so bravo to the marketing team I guess. Perhaps it is because during their investigation, they found something wrong with the other trees that would leave them susceptible to falling as well? It could very well be an overreaction, but the reality is none of us really know. At least the park got the second train back (something I honestly didn't expect) and is replanting trees. Yeah I think the fact that they are replanting trees is telling. To me that says that even though for whatever reason they needed to cut down all those trees, they don't want the whole hillside to be barren. If they were really just cutting down trees because they hated them or were purely overreacting, I dont think youd see them being replanted.

alexinla Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Although it has been 20+years, during the Northridge Earthquake, the only damage SFMM had was the hill by Ninja, I am pretty sure the trees took a beating aswell, it was just never adressed.

Cullvion Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 How busy is Six Flags Magic Mountain on Easter weekend? I'm probably going that weekend so it would be nice to know so I could plan for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFChris Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 ^SFMM is extremely busy during spring break, which usually revolves around the Easter Weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcdude Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I was pretty neutral on the name at first, but after seeing the recent pictures the name Twisted Colossus definitely fits the ride. Once it's done, this will probably be the best looking ride at the park (and quite possibly the best as well). How busy is Six Flags Magic Mountain on Easter weekend? I'm probably going that weekend so it would be nice to know so I could plan for it. It will be busy. Expect waits of at least an hour for major coasters. If getting on everything is essential, a Gold or Platinum Flash Pass is recommended. If you go on Easter itself the crowds may be a little smaller, but probably not enough to make a significant difference in wait times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manic Monte Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 As the construction kicks into high gear, I think people can get a better idea of the difference in the blue and green run. They are not the same. But RMC did a great job in giving each side a signature element that stands out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFOGdude25 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 This structure is by far the most quirky and "frankenstein"y I've ever seen. It just looks plain weird, but ride is looking amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 What a relief! In the ride video, the double down had a weird bump-inducing straight section... Looks way cooler with a twist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they do...also it does not look like a double down either as of right now anyway. It very clearly bottoms out with that twist and then drops again after it crosses over the blue tracks.

Projektion Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 That green double down may be more twisty than I had originally anticipated. A lot of the ride is turning out a lot more twisty than I was expecting. A lot of the animated pov seemed to have these stiff unbanked turns through out the whole ride, but it doesn't look like they're anywhere to be seen now.

rcdude Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Twisted Colossus just keeps getting more and more awesome with each new update. It will be interesting to see if any part of the top gun stall or zero-g roll has changed from the initial rendering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
