Six Flags Magic Mountain Tatsu Flying Coaster

[SFMM rocks my socks]

Thats not to bad. I really like the drawing. And for the name I think some thing that involes dragons or ninjas. I really just hope though that the ride will be huge have a tunnel and have many inversions. I guess I will just have to wait and see.

[colossus]

this ride is going to be huge.it starts at the top of the summit and goes by rapids crossing then over roaring rapids. and ive been told it will go as far as psyclone.im so excited i get to go to the opening party woo woo.

nice pic

Besides the B:TR train sent to SFNO, RRv, Goldrusher, Viper, Ninja, and I think Goliath all had trains in rehab to get them to pass state inspections.

 

I wonder why they sent the BTR train from SFMM to SFNO instead of one of the other lesser attended parks with a BTR like La Ronde or SFStL?

 

That is seriously insane though how many rides ran one train. I can see why so many people lost faith in the place and haven't come back!

Does any one know if the orient is staying or leaving. :?

[NitroJoeC]

If I had to bet, I'd say Orient is staying...but things change, so who knows. But yeah, I'd count on riding it again!

 

And Skytower, too. I'd bet a large sum of money to say that it will not be taking the Great Gasp route. Now if it ever opens again, that's another topic altogether.

Well conceidering they have ripped the track up and have started demolishing the station... I would say leaving.

[rollermonkey]

I just thought of something so cool, it can't possibly ever actually happen:

 

DUELING, Flying Bolliger & Mabillard Coasters

 

Yummy.

 

There's room, and it would explain why there's so many markers.

This idea was rumored for CP for a while, then it evaporated.

^^ Wow have they really started ripping up the station? That's definitely not a good sign!

 

Joe "see, shows what I know" C.

I think the OE will be moved over. What could the 818 mark mean. Maybe there will be a new pathway

[Sir Clinksalot]

^ Or the 818 could mean that it's moving to the Valley ...

What are you talking about? Orient is still there. They are going to do some major work on that general area to get stuff back open again. Sky Tower will be back in service, Revolution is getting fixed up for it's 30th aniversary, and Orient will be back up and running. If they tore out Orient, how would the fat/lazy people get up to the summit?

[colossus]

that is very true

if orient wasnt there no fat peps get to the new ride

but that means shorter line

[SLUSHIE]

^You've missed out on a bit. There are a bunch of photo updates in previous pages. Some show a pile of Orient track. Even the link to a MM update on the main page of TPR show the pile.

 

TAKE A LOOK!

[Tmcdllr]

I was wondering if they were going to do anything for Revolution's 30th anniversary- 30 years and still going. Just get rid of the damn over the shoulder restraints, it ran fine for years without them!.

[SharkTums]

^That would be the best 30th anniversary present! No more Shoulder Restraints!

[Guy T. Koepp]

I likes to sez the same thing to my shoulder restraints as I sez to my strippaz.

 

Take it off!!

 

But Revolution won't and therefore never gets a bill stuffed between its up stop wheels.

I apologize for that last post.

Revy is still a classic ride, even with the OTSR, it still is by far one of the best layouts.

[ebl]

^ Very true, but you can't enjoy it with your head banging the OTSRs the whole ride.

 

Eric

[Jew]

Anyone want to pay the insurance bill for removing the OTSR's?

 

Unfortunately they are there for a reason *cough* stupid guests *cough*, and removing them is not permitted under state law unless everyone signs off on the change.

[Sir Clinksalot]

^ See, I have heard that too. So I assumed it meant any ride with inversions in CA had to have OTSR's. So what about Montezooma's Revenge then?

 

I can't think of any other rides in CA that has inversions and a lap-bar only.

[Manic Monte]

I have heard those decisions ( lab bars/OTSR) are made on a case by case basis.

 

Revolution had lab bars until people started reporting getting whiplash from the ride. People also weren't following the rules and leaning forward and out the side of the train. You know, the same crap they do on Gold Rusher.

[Mr. X]

At least they don't have the over heads on Goldrusher like they do on Rev.

 

I'm working for the private party tomorrow night, I'll have to investigate this orient demo on my lunch.

[SFMM rocks my socks]

I hope they dont get rid of the orient. I think though there just fixing it up for the new ride. but there going to have to bit in a new walk way if anything.

[ChemicalWhore]

if they dont put it back in i know im not walking up that hill
