- These are the pros and cons of one of the most insane coasters in the world, X2 at Six Flags Magic Mountain!

I can’t imagine going up a huge lift hill while Enter Sandman is playing
Korseeth It’s definitely the most intense ride ever. And the audio just makes it even more intense somehow. This ride always frightens me but I still ride it lmao. It’s a MUST!
The rights to the song would double the cost of the ride.
@Zachary Young it sounds like you need to listen to the first four albums if you believe that.
Korseeth it’s epic
Bro it’s incredible.
The biggest con of this coaster is getting Arrow Dynamics bankrupt. Oh, and the outer seats.

Six Flags making a new ride: WRITE TH THAT DOWN, WRITE THAT DOWN!
💀💀💀
It really sucks that more of these 4D coasters don’t exist, not including the s and s free spins
I know, since S&S have the blueprints and assets to be able to bring it back. Hopefully one day.
lol there are 2 more eejanaika and dinoconda both built by s&s but are the same model as x2 and are said to be even better than x2
@@corn6960 I know, but at least in North America :) Because X2 is the only one (excluding the free spins) of its kind anywhere in North America
S&S freespin is 3d. Up&down, forward&backward, and seat rotation. Now x2 is 4d because it turns left and right as well
I actually love the S&S free spins alot
You forgot the pro that the height limit is 48”. This resulted in x2 being an absolutely insane ride for 8 year old me after the overhaul in 2008.
That explains why I saw really young kids waiting in line in a part of the video. Thanks, I was wondering about that.
Of course having only a 48” minimum height requirement doesn’t necessarily mean a good time for kids who are barely that. Some kids will find it absolutely terrifying, and even some teenagers and adults have second thoughts.
I forgot how tall I was in 08, but I was kinda afraid of X2, I’d rather spend my time in Thomas Town.
hahaha facts!
Mike Ford I feel like this a pro tho bc when I was in line for I was terrified but I noticed this group of 8 yr olds in front of me just vibing seemingly unaware of what ride they were in line for so basically I manned up and rode it bc I didn’t wonna chicken out since they were gonna get on it lol
people: We love 4D coasters!
Six flags: *makes another S&S free spin* ok here ya go
Merpy Merp at least it’s not an intamin 4D
100 subscribers no video FACTS
My guess is that this ride has caused six flags so many problems they don’t want to make another one
At the end of the X2 it hurts because your legs go up and down
i really appreciated that tribute to Arrow near the end. between inventing tubular steel track, coasters (safely) going upside down, hypercoasters and this, they're responsible for like 90% of what currently happens in the industry. easy to forget that as their old rides start to get removed
Was my favorite manufacturer as a kid! Then it was B&M for awhile, but lately their rides bore me... Intamin and RMC with honorable mention
Agree with the tribute. I was able to ride Shockwave multiple times throughout they years at Six Flags Great America in Gurnee, IL. Towards the end though, it became quite rough. I found that the pull down harness really did a number on your shoulders, especially if you are a tall person. It was eventually tore down though.
I flipped in joy when enter sandman played. One of the most iconic songs from my favorite band!!
InsaneCoasterJunkie it’s good, but why does the ride briefly play “Love in an Elevator”? This is Six Flags, not Disney!
@@DoswarePictures I always find the "going down" part iconic to me. It just fits.
InsaneCoasterJunkie yeah, that’s something Rock N’ Roller Coaster doesn’t do, so point X.
@@DoswarePictures Love in an Elevator is a killer groove.
Whiplash would be more fitting
Praise the design god, Alan Schilke for giving Arrow Dynamics a worthy final coaster before their collapse. Definitely worth that $46 million. It's truly the best Arrow Dynamics coaster around, and just goes to show how innovative they were for their time :) Plus no one will ever forget that name, Arrow Dynamics, in the coaster industry. If it wasn't for them, we wouldn't have more crazier coasters today.
Man, X2, what a crazy ride. It was my first real roller coaster, and I had no idea what I was getting myself into. It was a night ride, and I decided to seat in the front, or at least what I thought was the front. I ended up getting an back row, inside seat ride and after that ride, I was sold on roller coasters. Oh, and if you think the view is good during the day time, well, all I can say is that it doesn't even compare to the night view.
I also have to disagree about the turn around being a con. The turn around offers a great feeling of flight, and like you said, it is a nice "resting point". To be honest, I think that a bat wing or other similar element would make the coaster worse since, as said before, the turn around offers a nice feeling of flight.
I agree with you. I like that turnaround, especially if I load on the stairs side. You're on the outside of the turnaround, with a great feeling of flight and a great view. Not every element has to be totally insane. The majestic "resting point" just makes the crazy elements even better. And yes, the night rides are indescribable!!!
I love this ride SO MUCH. Its the only coaster I've been on that I've actually been terrified of.
88.5 degrees
That’s a lot of college
OOF MODZZ that’s actually a good joke
But not much on a board!
OOF MODZZ ☑️ no no no
354 years of college probably is just about as intimidating as this ride
Intense is the best way to describe it. The first time I got off the ride I had to ask myself "What just happened?"
Pro: It looks badass
Con: I haven't ridden it I want to ride it so bad
Dan Riddle ...solution: ride the outer back row once the park open back up. stick your arms and legs out in front of you for the whole ride. makes you feel like you’re flying. *ESPECIALLY* during the flip right before the first drop.
@@notyou666 frs man I want to go back and ride that ride first time I rode, was hella scared but faced my fears shit was awesome
david gaming oh dude the first time i rode it, X2 was a walk on bc of the rain(who knew water falling from the sky would hurt that much as you’re speeding and twisting) i thought the “front row” was the back row. once we pulled out of the station head first i knew i was fucked 😂 the on ride audio had me shitting bricks. anything after the first drop became an intense blur lmao
@@notyou666 frs the front row feels like the back row and ye that shit hurts bad on the rain, man x2 is my favorite ride there now that I think of it cuz before I was like either x2 twisted or full throttle
Just hearing the chain-lift soundtrack gives me an adrenaline rush I swear, I haven't been to Magic Mountain in years and I miss it so much.
thought I was the only one lol it gave me goosebumps
Unfortunately, the music and effects haven't been running in awhile. (at least, when I've ridden it lately)
@@jeffwood1631 i got fire like last month and i got hype
Nathan Havens no kidding? Last time I was there was friday after x-mas and no effects. Ride op said it was because the park doesn’t fill the propane tank for the torches a lot anymore.
@@jeffwood1631 yea i couldnt believe it either
"If all this ride had was that drop and then it turned back into the station it would still be worth it."
Exactly. The drop alone sells the ride. It's that good.
Its been 6 years since I rode this coaster and i'm going insane. I can't stop thinking about that amazing one ride.
Excellent video! This coaster IS the most INSANE in the U.S.! I’m actually grateful for that turnaround lol it gives you a break to process and a two second break from your body almost tearing apart! 😬
*I WAS BLESSED TO HAVE LIVED THROUGH THIS ERA OF SIX FLAGS MAGIC MOUNTAIN, AND YES, I WAS DEFINITELY THERE ON CHRISTMAS EVE 2001 TO EXPERIENCE THE PREVIEW OF TWO AWESOME COASTERS!!!!*
EVERY YEAR, from the opening of Batman the Ride, to Superman the Escape, to Riddlers Revenge, to Goliath, to the INSANITY of THREE coasters(two large, and one small) X, Déjà Vu, and Goliath Jr., I MUST SAY:
*THIS IS WHAT MADE ME A MAGIC MOUNTAIN FANATIC,* although I was already one before this particular era!!
*THE BEST DAMN TIME OF MY LIFE......RIGHT HERE!!!!*
THANK YOU, AND STAY WELL AIRTIME CHRIS!!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏
My thoughts exactly! Back when Magic Mountain came out with record breaking coasters every year.
That’s awesome! I just rode X2 tonight. It was unreal!!!
I got 10 rides on X2 during my trip in March. We did a 5 ride marathon without leaving the station and had to leave after I got a back outside ride that felt like it compressed my spine during the final Raven turn. Still is easily my 5th favorite coaster and preferred to any of the 9 RMCs I’ve ridden.
X2 and now wonder woman are some of the most unique feeling coasters I've ridden. Both bucket list coasters for sure! And I had no idea that the ride is diff depending on sitting in the front or the back. I've ridden X2 once and it was on the back, now I kinda want to try the front.
I got really lucky when I went to magic mountain in February. X2 was a walk on all day, so i rode it 8 times
Nice! On Super Bowl Sunday, X2 was a walk-on all day. I rode it 9x, 7 in the last hour or so. That plus 5 Viper rides was too much for even me to handle.
This will always be my favorite rollercoaster. The ride is crazy, the engineering is absolutely mind boggling, and I will always have a spot for Arrow in my heart. Such a shame they went bankrupt, they were the true innovators of the coaster world!
my sentiments exactly
Awesome video!! I can tell the extended home time with quarantine gave you some extra time for editing and effects. Also loved the Arrow spotlight at the end
By far my favorite ride at SFMM! The face first drop is my favorite and scares me every time and I’ve been on this more times than I can keep track of 🥴
Incredible coaster. Should be at the top of everyone’s list! I hope it’s around forever, such a unique and out of control ride.
X....x......2......2 is everybody in?
The ceremony is about to begin
Pro: the effects
Con:but it's Six Flags...
Yep
XscreamThrills Y’all act like Cedar Fair is perfect
@@subzerofromny735 Better than 6F
Six flags is the one who brought this coaster. It's a pro
The goosebumps from the soundtrack though... amazing.
Man I love X2. Great video as always. My coaster count is not huge but I have X2 as my 4th favorite steel coaster. Our trip last April was great overall and X2 was the highlight. The fire effects were working too so that was nice.
Thanks for that...Love X2. I myself sit in front on the outside. Always amazing and intense ride. I will have to try back of the train when I get to go back.
Awesome video, I have only been to Magic Mountain once but I managed to ride X2 and out of all of the coasters that I have ridden X2 is my favorite, still to this day I remember boarding in the front row and thinking it was the back row!!!
That ending though!
I love X2 it’s so crazy great video 👍🏻
This was probably my favorite coaster until last year. I had multiple rides where the seat rotations were really rough on top of the bumpy back half. Hopefully they will do a bit of a refurb soon. It's a must ride if you haven't though. You only get to experience the first drop for the first time, once.
That intro is so early 2000s
I rode this coaster this summer. Im from germany and this experience was so diffent to all other coaster i experience before. I rode one time in the Front row in the outer seat and ist was CRAZY. I love the out of control Feeling. Im 14 and one time i want to ride this beast again...
Awesome video! I agree with most of the pros and cons. That first drop is my all time favorite moment on any coaster and the pacing I think is a bit of a weakness which is why I can’t wait to ride Eejanaika, it seems to fix a lot of the problems that X2 has and makes improvements I didn’t even know I wanted!
My first ever time at Magic Mountain I went straight to X2. I got a back row ride with fire and music on the lift. I died.
Awesome video!!
Magic Mountain is my homepark, and my first time there (in 2015) with my friends I was too afraid that I didn't ride X2. Everyone told me that It was really intense, so I prefered to ride other rollercoasters like Superman, Batman and Viper. The next year, I decided to ride X2 because I started to love rollercoasters and I wanted to have the experience. In that time I used to ride rollercoasters only on the middle or the back. And when I got to ride X2, there was a huge line in the middle, so I told my friend that it was ok to ride it on the back. I got on the inner sit, but I still had a thrilling experience. It was so intense that I started to cry on that first drop (I have to admit that I was panicking with the audio effects). And when I got off X2, I screamed "I'M A NEW WOMAN!!!!!" and then I got really excited and X2 converted into one of my favorite roller coasters at Magic Mountain. 🥰
I have 5 years in a row going to Six Flags but I haven't ride the X2 since 2017 (I went with other friends and they didn't want to ride it) but I'm hoping to go this year and ride the X2 again. ❤️
It's an awesome experience!!! ❤️
I love that ride so much. I'll never forget waiting 3 hours for my first ride and afterwards thinking totally worth it.
Nobody:
Hantimetracerlights: *marathons X2 50 times in 1 day*
Not the hero we deserved, But the hero we needed.
What about that one time analog thrills did revolution 62 times in a day?
0MindSwept0 I mean we are talking about X2 here but yeah ig. Also revolution is way tamer than X2. 62 rides on Revolution are much easier than 50 on X2.
@@stanton1270 i mean ya, rev is still pretty janky tho
0MindSwept0 but X2 is on a whole other level
I rode this 4 times in the 02-03 era when it was just X. The most extreme coaster I had ever ridden before that was giant dipper at Santa Cruz Boardwalk, so it was quite intense for me. I have ridden it countless times since and it feels like a much different ride than it was when it was just X. I swear when I rode it in 03 it was glass smooth but it could be my memory going south.
Thanks for the constant content!
The fact that the Giant Dipper in Santa Cruz is 100 plus years old and they literally designed it with a slide rule, pencil and paper baffles me to this day. I personally feel the Giant Dipper is under appreciated by the coaster community.
@@markjensen7091 Oh it is. It's a great coaster and I didn't mean to knock it in anyway in my comment. I love it and more people need to ride it. If it was at a bigger park it would get the attention it deserves, it's the headline attraction at the boardwalk so it's hard to justify a trip there just to ride it.
@@craigperry3779 I'm just saying that IMO The Big Dipper is highly underrated and should get the love and attention it deserves. The fact they made it with a pencil, paper, and a slide rule baffles me. Now days everything is computers, but that oldie and goodie knocks MANY coasters in the ground on how good it is. I personally love that 1st turn after the first drop feels like your going to fly off and then zoom back down again.
Love that you added the lift hill theme! And I’m ok with the turn because like you said it gives me a breather. Top 5 coaster for me! Hope it lasts forever!!
Pikeman Adventure let’s hope this won’t end up like the video about what coasters will close in the next few years.
What a great touch with enter sandman!!!!!!! Made me super stoked
Can’t wait to get to MM and ride this thing. Got super close to riding Eejenika in Japan and barely missed out
Great video! Thank you. I took my 8 year old daughter on it in January, she LOVED it! My all-time favorite ride for an adrenaline boost. Recently, Ive enjoyed the back more than the front but the front is always better on the 1st drop. Right side (stairs) back row inside seat at night with fire on and Metallica pumping cant be beat!
I got my first rides on this last fall, back row, inside, at night, with the audio working, and I was blown away. Especially by the audio -- I had no idea it was there, and it added so much to the experience. I got to ride again about a month ago, front row (inside and outside), daytime, with the audio off, and I didn't like it as much, but mostly because I got a whack to the back of the head after the second raven turn, both times I rode. If I can get back to SFMM, I'll definitely try it again, but I agree that the experience varies a lot.
X2 was my 400th coaster credit, a very wild milestone ride! I rode it in mid January and it's a top ten ride for me. I don't like any of the 4D free spin coasters like Joker, but this is a much different beast. I now want to hit its bigger brother in Japan.
5:17
Everyone: SOPHIE!
Me: Airtime thrills merch!
I’m moving to Cali soon full time so I’m excited to get a pass and go often! I’ve never done X2 or most of the new thrills there since it’s been so long. Thanks for the tips! Love the channel!
You're so right about the difference between the front and back. The back seats are absolutely bonkers! If considering the back I don't think I could take many more elements. I would say the ride is the right length, but in the front it could be a bit longer.
Hearing the lifthill song got me all pumped for work thanks! Lol. I will try not tightening the restraints all the way on my next visit (whenever that is) That's what I have always done.
I was sad because you usually dont upload on mondays but here you are thanks for the videos
wawa 24 he almost always uploads on Monday.
I think the last time I missed a Monday was 6 months ago
@@AirtimeThrills oof I forgot but thanks for the upload
I love this coaster! It’s my favourite. I went to Magic Mountain in just to ride this and it did not disappoint!
That drop is unbelievable! I personally have it as my number 1 barely beating twisted colossus because of that out of control feeling
Great video! I agree with the first drop but the first time I rode it all I could think of was I hope these restraints don't fail by the force at the bottom. Next I put the length as a pro but as you said it was enough for me. Lol. I agree also with the first color scheme. It looked like McDonald's from I 5. Glad to see more videos of yours my friend!!😄😄
X2: Electric Boogaloo
That intro with the ride music gave me chills.
luv the intro good job
I'm having some nostalgic feelings of my teen years. I rode X2 twice back in 2009 and now I really want to go back to SFMM to have some fun. Together with Tatsu, the most epic coaster I've ever ridden.
I’ve been on some intense rides, but this still tops my list as my favorite coaster. I know it may not have the air time as other top coasters, but the intensity can’t be matched. That face first drop is insane.
This is Arrow Dynamics 9th Symphony or Swan Song. It is truly their greatest creation and NO ONE can top it.
This ride intimidated me all day at the park, I rode this last, waited the 2 hours to get on it and had to get it off my list. I rode it at night when it was still X and to this day still scares the shit out of me. You nailed EVERY DETAIL about this ride. My friend and I just wanted to get over with, we took the shortest line on the car and it was the back row, and YEP it felt as is you don't have any control on what is happening. I will tell you this, this is the only ride to make me scream like a B. I bought the picture to prove it (and I NEVER buy the photos).
mark jensen so I guess Balto is Amblination’s 9th Symphony or swan song.
@@DoswarePictures Personally I do like Balto as a film, but I wouldn't compare the 2. Amblimation only lasted a few years and a few movies. Arrow Dynamics cut their teeth building rides for Disney, and later lasted 50 plus years. However, the phrase "9th symphony or swan song," is a musical reference. Beethoven made 9 symphonies and many people will state that the 9th was his greatest created, however it is not his LAST work he created. He continued to make piano sonata's and other works through out he later years. In the case of Arrow, X truly is a greatest work they ever created. The track design on X is far greater than any of their previous designs, its smoother, and the cars don't make you feel as if your going thru a blender. I think they would still be around today had they not gone into bankruptcy after 9/11. 9/11 mixed with the dot com bubble resulted in a major recession world wide for about 2 years. To be honest, timing was the WORST for them. I think had they gone bankrupt later or earlier, they would still be around for they could have restructured and weathered the storm.
I went to SFMM in December 2017 and rode in the back, but on an outside seat. I thought it was great until the final raven turn, when the car started bouncing through the rotation and it slammed my head against the seat. It was my first ride of the day and left me with a headache pretty much the rest of the day, which also left a sour note on the experience. If I ever get back to SoCal I'm definitely going to try again and make a smarter choice about my seating
It really does make a world of difference sitting on the inside seat! It’s a lot smoother!
This is a top 10 bucket list coaster for me. Work is supposed to take me to California in September so if it does, I’ll be aiming for that inside back row ride.
I love X2. Its my favorite coaster at the park and probably my number 1 coaster I've ridden so far. I love that out of control feel that it has. I do the same thing to with the harness and leave myself a little room in the seats and if you let your boy just relax and ragdoll it makes the ride so much crazier especially if you sit in the outer seats.
I used to live at that park, our company used to rent it out for a company only event so I can tell you I've ridden this many many times and even got stuck on it when the ride broke down but it's by far my favorite coaster. The flipping around will blow your mind ... only draw back... on a clear day in the middle of summer... you get cooked going up the hill.
I love X2! It's a truly incredible experience because those flips come out of nowhere!
My absolute FAVORITE coaster ever. I moved to San Diego when I was 21 years old, the same year it opened (as X), waited in line for 2 hours to ride it and have gone back at least 12 times in the past 18 years.
I’ve been on quite a few roller coasters, over 200 to be exact. And still nothing beats this mind boggling contraption at my home park. I’ve ridden this so many times but that drop genuinely still makes me scream every time. I come off and just can’t stop laughing about it. I’m gonna miss those weekdays where you could get multiple rides on this.
I hear this: In late November 2019 I rode it 4 times all in the back and slapped the back of my calfs the 2nd time riding it before learning to keep my legs extended to avoid future calf injuries. After that ride I went on the other side to ride in the back row (like always) and someone with crutches begged me to let him sit on the inside. Was I gonna deny that poor guy? No! That'd make me a monster. I only rode this coaster 4 times in one day this past November and I still have more stories from it. GREAT COASTER! Thank you for this awesome video.
Me: *can't go to work because of corona*
Me: *watches videos of the ride I work at* Nice
Samantha Follett now that’s something barely anyone else can say about this video.
that’s so cool!
Rode it in 2018 and the first drop is completely insane. But my head banged so hard on the last turn... I had a big headache after. I was alone in my row and took the inner seat to avoid that.
It most definitely is a bucket list coaster for me 😍
Had my first ride on X2 in February 2020, and I thought I received a head injury. I did multiple back-to-back rides on Eejanaika at Fuji Q, no pain. Glad I got to experience X2 , though. 👍🏿
Best intro and outro
The one dislike is from a Cedar point fanboy. In all seriousness great video, I love x2.
*rides X2 nonstop. Feels sick for the rest of month* The ride was probably never meant to be rode more than 3 times
That didn't stop me from riding it 7 straight times at the end of the day last time I was there, most in the back row. I was actually thankful that it wasn't open the next day due to high winds. I couldn't handle any more X2 rides after that marathon.
That intro was amazing
Had my first two rides on X2 today!!! Had to come straight back to this video to unpack it. INSANE. Got a front and a back row ride, and I fully agree, especially about the calves taking a beating. Not many coasters can make me shout out loud in celebration, but I was living my best life out there at the mercy of that beast. Easily the most extreme coaster I’ve ridden.
P.S. because of the new policies for the reservation period, lockers aren’t a thing right now and bags just go on the floor, and i walked right on after it came back up, so I had a PERFECT first impression in that back row.
I agree with pretty much everything you said except with the front row. For me the front row feels the most exhilarating because I don't see the train in front of me and I feel like I'm somersaulting through mid-air. Especially during that amazing initial drop! That still freaks me out no matter how many times I've ridden this coaster, which is about as many times as you have. I'm hoping with the new Six Flags management (current economy notwithstanding) a focus will be placed on bringing back quality by not only adding new major thrill rides, but by also fixing up the ones they currently operate. The last time I was at Magic Mountain (about a month ago before the quarantines began) they were operating two trains. One that had sound and one that didn't. I know I wouldn't see such a thing at a Cedar Fair park, let alone a Disney or Universal park. This goes back to the quality mantra I have for Six Flags. If they want to escape their obvious upcoming bankruptcy, they need to spend money. And fast.
Also, the turnaround itself is filled with pros and cons, as you’ve mentioned. I sorta like the short and sweet baby-carriage portion of the ride. Its like the coaster speaks to me “don’t worry baby, I know that first part was scary, but the rest is easy as....NOPE HERES SOMMORE CRAY”
This is definitely a top bucket list coaster for me
I can’t wait till I’m able to make a third visit to ride X2. I’m hoping to finally get a ride on it in which my enjoyment of the experience isn’t outweighed or tarnished by my discomfort. I’ll be sure to try an inside seat, as well as test out different rows. I really want to like this coaster as much as everyone else does, lol.
One forth of July weekend, I rode X2 four times in a row; my legs were so sore after wards; best ride ever.
I remember going to six flags for the first time and my dad telling me I would love it. He has only ridden X but he knew not much changed. That first drop scared the hell out of me but I loved the entire ride. ITS CRAZY!!
I love the Arrow coasters and X/X2 was a good coaster for them to go out with. They were able to go out with a bang. Not many coaster companies get to have that. X2 is my third favorite ride at Magic Mountain (behind Tatsu at #2 and Riddler's Revenge at #1). I've only been on it 5 times and the last time I rode it was in December 2011 (even though I did visit Magic Mountain in 2013 and 2019, thanks to my sister signing her class up for the Six Flags reading program). I do agree about that view of the park- it the best.
This is my number 1! I’ve been on steel vengeance and fury, too, but this is so much better
Sick intro!
SFMM is just minutes from my house. X2 is my all time favorite coaster. I love how it's always dialed to 11. I'm always on the outside seat, my son is on the inside seat. So much fun.
My favorite part is exiting the first raven turn with so much speed and my least favorite is the second raven turn since it is so violent and painful..
I completely agree with you!But one thing you missed was the advertising,I get that Six Flags like to advertise all over their rides,but I had Which Will You Ride?Left Twix or right Twix!Great vid tho!👍
I went over to SFMM super hyped for Twisted Colossus and came out almost forgetting about the RMC because X2 was literally so much more crazy, intense, and awesome. I’ve ridden 150 coasters and X2 is top five for me while Twisted Colossus barely makes my top 15, it’s that good of a ride.
Evilgriffing just wondering, was TC dueling?
Dosware Pictures it was not dueling sadly, to me it just felt like a very average RMC, I rank Storm Chaser, Twisted Timbers, Lightning, and Iron Rattler (my fav) over it
@@evilgriffing1825 I rank those RMCs above TwCol as well. Iron Rattler is one of my favorites. But X2 is still my overall # 1, even over Steel Vengeance. TwCol is better when it duels, but I still rank it behind those that you mentioned. It's still great, but X2 is mind-blowing!
Oklahoma Coaster Fan I couldn’t agree more, the only coasters I have above X2 are ghost rider (because it’s so re rideable and the night rides are amazing), I305 (for its intensity and great night ride), Fury (for its front row), and Voyage because I truly believe it’s the best coaster ever
@@evilgriffing1825 I really got to get on Voyage! I've never been there. I'm hoping to for HoliWood Nights this year.
I honestly can’t wait to ride it this year!
Ever wondered what it's like to be in a dryer that's that's being driven 70+mph while it's on? Well this is the coaster for you
Concussion spin cycle
Most fun I probably had on a roller coaster but it was quite rough. Didn’t take away from it being one of the best and most unique rides I’ve been on.
My # 1 coaster! That final raven turn can slam my head into the seat-back if I'm not careful. That's the only con that might bother me, but if I can keep that from happening, I'm okay with all the cons. I would agree with your assessments. It's interesting that I have ridden this about half as many times as you (25), despite me having only 3 lifetime days here to ride it. I have ridden it 5 to 7x in a row several times. I agree about the locker policy, but I would go a step further. At Great Adventure, I didn't have to put my souvenir bottle in a locker on those rides, but I do with X2. I actually left it in the car and went without soda.
That backside ride 🔥🔥😂😱
I have rode this ride as X ans x2... Love it
YAAAAAAAAAASSSSSS!!!!!!! MY BABY, MY LOVE, IS ON A PROS AND CONS LIST!!!!!!!! I FREAKING LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!!!! THAT INTRO IS SOOOOO GOOD BTW!!!
