    it's rollercoaster time, hitting magic mountain, strategy? advices?

    i lobbied to go after augsut when school is back in session and it's cooler (but mostly because rollers scare the living shit outta me and i was trying to put it off as long as possible!) but was vetoed so what's the best strategy for hitting the top coasters and the most coasters in a crowded park?

    a couple tactics already planned:

    -going on a weekday

    -gonna try and arrive before the park opens, hell, getting into the parking lot, catching a tram and getting through security can take an hour+, no sense in wasting that time while coasters are running.

    go straight to full throttle then goliath and run to x2 and hope it's not already nutty or broken down ???? is that the suggested order?

    this is frought with apprehension, i'm going to shit my pants riding any of those without warming up with much less extreme coasters, right? or no?

    i think i need to hit 1-2 other coasters 1st and ramp up to these or will that put us in the long lines, assuming the lines get longer as the day goes on. but was also thinking maybe the lines shorten during the hot part of the day?

    here's a bit about mm, they currently have 19 coasters, this is a solid top 11, #4 is the latest, just opened a month ago, the world's tallest and fastest looper coaster!!!!1

    EPIC COASTERS MAGIC MOUNTAIN COASTERS

    1. Superman Escape from Krypton- Blast from 0-100 mph in seven seconds backwards and shoot straight up 41 stories into the sky for 5 seconds of being weightless before zooming 410 feet straight down at 100 mph going forward this time.
    2. Tatsu- The worlds tallest fastest and longest flying roller coaster
    3. X-2- The worlds first multidimensional roller coaster with seats that flips you around upside down. This is one of the scariest most intense roller coasters In the world
    4. Full Throttle- The worlds tallest and fastest looping roller coaster with three 70 mph launches, and a 160 foot tall vertical loop. Just opened on June 22nd and gave SFMM the title as coaster capitol.\
    5. The Viper- 175 foot tall 75 mph super looping roller coaster with 7 inversions.
    6. Goliath- 255 foot tall mega coaster with monster 255 foot drop with a top speed of 85 mph. This coaster features a rare helix of death with causes extreme g's and blackouts.
    7. Colossus- Monster double wooden roller coaster with 110 foot drop and top speed of 60 mph.
    8. Scream- Extreme floorless roller coaster with a 150 foot drop 65 mph and 7 inversions.
    9. Green Lantern First Flight- The U.S first and only spinning roller coaster
    10. Batman the ride- Intense high g inverted roller coaster with 6 inversions
    11. Riddlers Revenge- The worlds tallest fastest longest stand up roller coaster. It also holds the record with the most inversions on a stand up roller coaster

        Just think of it this way, if you sit in the front that cant happen! Go on the biggest and fastest one first also look into a "fast-pass" i know they have them at Six Flags. You basically register a time to go to your ride and have access to your own special entrance when the time comes. Definitely worth it if your visit time is limited.

          I was going to Magic Mountain over 30 years ago, place has really grown since then.

          Yes, go during the early week, check the weather for a cooler day.
          Dress comfortable, bring cash.
          Take your time, check out the main coasters for their line and hit them when the line is smaller. Lots of fun rides there, haven't been in a long time.

          I'm going to Universal Studios soon, want to ride the new Transformers ride
          Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
          think about that

              Our local six flags is pretty good... The tram was every five minutes, they had some thirty lines open for security, and lines to the rides were light... This is the past few times I was there.

                  yup, good stuff, they have a flash pass, it's the same price at the park as it is online and it also doesn't include some (all?) of the flagship coasters, i thnk currently x2 and full throttle are not included, maybe even 1 more.

                  so what i was figurin was if the lines on the other coasters are insane (1 hour+) then buy flash passes at the park. i'm hoping to maybe ride 8-9 coasters, that would allow for 1 hour in line for each ride + 1 hour for lunch.

                  oh, i was meaning i'm the guy that's gonna hurl! hahahah, maybe we should queue up for the last car eh.

                  i'm with you, if we can get in 8-9 rides, we'll be stoked. but a 2 hour wait at 2 coasters throws the plan out of whack! unless we can belly right up to a couple others to make up for it.

                        Nah that was the first one we went on. But i've been on it many times before.

                        To be honest after that first climb and drop, it's a pretty tame ride...
