Default Six Flags Magic Mountain 2/27 &2/28/2010 !
by bobbinbop20 03-03-2010, 09:46 PM

First of all, you should all go watch this video I made at Magic Mountain, complete with support humping, rolling on the floor, and FIREEEE!!!!! Go watch it, because it's awesome you know?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayrEkamP7DM <------ Click that for FIRE! You know you want to

Anyway, where do I start? Magic Mountain, my favorite six flags park and for that matter favorite park, I would first like to point out the HUGE differences the park has undergone since last year at this time. They really spruced up the place and everything looks absolutely great, this has got to be the best condition Magic Mountain has ever been in! I'm loving the new management.

I had an amazing time at SFMM, and you should as well, book your flights now, before its charred to a crisp by a wildfire! Hurrrrrrrrry people hurry!

Let's talk about X2, because well I want to. Got a problem? Then just skip to the pictures like I'm sure most everyone does anyway right? Go on, be a follower, hop on that bandwagon! I honestly couldn't careless, and for the people still reading this, well congrats you won a prize! Well not really I just wanted your attention, now back to your regularly scheduled PTR...

Where were we? Oh yes X2! I would like to point out the X2 was the best roller coaster ever last year when I rode it, and now it's even better, imagine that. We rode X2 9 times during our stay in Valencia, and each one got better and better, ride in row 7 on the stairs side of the station, on an Inside seat and your in for a real treat. The first drop is absolutely insane from that seat, you get whipped over the top and the flip at the bottom scared the shit out of me every single time.

When you ride X2 in said seat, your legs are shot off of the seat at the bottom of the first drop and It's really awesome, kinda like when you ride in the last row of demon! This weekend was my first night ride on X2, and I'll just say if you haven't rode X2 in the dark your really missing out. Go ride it!

As for the other coasters go, Riddler's is still awesome, Tatsu is still awesome, The Scream! fan boy inside of me says Scream! is still awesome, and Goliath makes me gray out every time. amazing. end of story

Terminator was really good, I absolutely loved that ride, could have rode that thing all day long for sure, my favorite GCI by a long shot. It really amazed me.

When you go to SFMM get the soft frozen lemonade stuff they have there, it's beyond godly

Superman was closed all weekend, and There was two pieces of red track for the roller skater sitting behind Terminator.

Enough typing already, picture time


If you see this sign, your about to have a great time!


It rained the first day, we bought ponchos. Poncho party wooo woooot!!!


Tatsu in all it's glory


What is that? X2 of course


Riddler, on a side note, BTR's new paint looks awesome!


Deja who? Deja Vu


Terminator Salvation: THE RIDE


I got the Batman Blues...


I really enjoy this picture, and this element


Ecuador! da da da da da da da da da da da da


Coming to you straight off the MCBR


Twisty


Riddler's has airtime, I swear! NOOB!!!


Possibly the sexiest rollercoaster on this freaking planet


I see you.. tehehe


Look who's back


Here we are, in the station for our favorite ride on the planet


Oh I'm standing here, ready to be a friggen gladiator


Tatsu's Pretzal loop is also insane


Wheels roll, no lie


The legendary 4 rail track


I think I'll ride


Hey everyone, X2 is open in the rain. I'm also wearing a pancho


I'm a flower crusher


Terminator was running one train all weekend, which made for a pretty long line the second day when the weather was nice


Magnets, cant live without them


Nobody was in the front row I guess


Dont cha wish your support was hot like mine


Support huggers rejoice


Oh Tatsu baby you rub me the right way


I'm actually on the ride in the picture, in row 8. It's hard to tell


This awesome lady named Jodi has a Tattoo of X2 on her arm, and we rode X2 with her. yeah boy!


X lives on


Jaime didn't know how to turn on the flash


by the time we got back she figured it out


Jaime and Jodi riding X2 together, In row 7!!


We were on the last X2 train of the night


We'll be back tomorrow


Told ya, now why would I lie?


Tatsu looking lovely in the morning


Riddler's also looking lovely in the morning


Riddler is just so damn smooth, I love it!


Smelt good, but I didn't eat here


Lemme hear you scream!....... are you screaming? I dont hear it? Maybe just a little louder? ok thanks!


This gigantic loop is the first inversion


I prefer my B&M's with no floor


High decibel thrills man.


That loop I just mentioned


Dive loop FTW


Colossus, another Magic Mountain original, and I love it too.


I remember Superman being fun, but that was a year ago, like I said earlier it was closed all weekend


The might Goliath has a huge sign


It's very fitting


There's that tiny track segment that someone on SFGAMworld pointed out to me last year


Giant face in Goliath's queue


Last year there was yellow stickers on this very support that read "Dang!"


I hate climbing these, but love Goliath


Only in La right?


one benefit of oxygen is that it keeps you alive


Random giant tree


Lemon Icy thing


The magical mountain


Tatsu was testing, Why? Good question.


Viper's weird loop


Let's go ride X2 shall we kids


"Me and my boot are ready "


This is a good picture showing X2's flipping seats


your typical X2 chain




Revolution was truly a revolution




We head into the parking lot to get some otherwise impossible shots of X2 and FIRE!




you can flip my seat any day




Two pictures showing X2's track


One of my favorite pictures of X2


I love when your at the top of this raven turn staring at the ground


First drop


Second Raven turn


Twisting flip


FIRE!!!!!




This little sucker makes fire




That fire really is amazing, worlds better them both Bizarro's




Coolest thing ever.


The Luge Turn


They were having a job fair, and people were waiting


We head back into the park for more pictures


Terminator


Deja Vu looks absolutely great


TAKE THE TUNNEL


This was a good spot for an exit ramp, good for pictures


some airtime to be had here


That's very X2 of you...




Canyon Blaster is the most fun kiddie coaster


I like the way the clouds look in this


Tatsu roaring over head


That's a lot of houses


A look at the switch track area




After you've rode Tatsu, SUF is a complete disappointment, well actually it's a disappointment before you ride Tatsu too, so what am I talking about?


Keep your butt out






Terminator's Sign is great


And so Is Riddler's, especially when It's all lit up


Goodbye Magic Mountain, until next year. I'll miss you!

Great pictures!!

I love going to park in bad weather (so far I been in a BIG THOUNDER STORM and cold/snow everywhere), because nobody is in the park!!!

I was wondering if at the entrance when they hand out the park maps, did they have the 2010 map with the new coaster on it or not?, because when I went to SFOT this year they were handing out 2009 maps!!
