Six Flags Magic Mountain

I’ve already voiced my concerns with any new additions when they don’t even have enough staff to run every current ride at the same time, much less at full capacity with more than one train at a time. But I would love to see X2 get its fire and onboard audio restored and updated.

Even if overall better coasters are now opening (mostly at Universal actually), that ride will always be MM’s crown jewel and it has a certain power that can’t be touched.

New trains, retheme + retrac of rougher areas and new station.

Man a retrack alone would do AMAZING wonders for that ride. It would probably put it in my top 3 if the retrack smoothens it out!

Expansion? I’m interested. I do want a giga eventually lol

retrac of rougher areas

So the entire ride

I feel the only retrack needed is the last raven turn. Are the current trains starting to get to the point of not fixable?

I wonder if it’d be a chance to bring free dimensional spinning back to SFMM, with a next gen iteration of the S&S 4D that could have that option for a few of the cars

That would ruin X2 if you’re implying what I think you’re implying.

See you know what I am implying--but the way I am thinking is if it could be like a Steel Taipan situation; where it's only for one of the main cars.

Say, if it's the back row that has the free spinning, but the rest of the experience is the standard X experience.

I'd also like to wonder if albeit in curiosity if they might take this as a opportunity to enhance the experience of X--with perhaps a changed element (like the bunny hill becoming a roll similar to Eijinaka). Doubt they'd go that far, but I wonder how severe the retracking would be.

Just give me fire, fog, on-board audio, fancy lighting & a SMOOTH non-assault/battery ride experience.

I hope we are getting more houses....we skipped Scream break and most of these are very...very classic houses

Like I really hope they have a plan to improve the event

I'd rather not see a free spin on X2 (3?).. controlled spin is great, unless that's part of the design flaw issue for the current trains

So Conjuring gets the boot? Because if there is a mining town maze, that would be their best location for it. And new maze by Wonder Woman? So far, all the external Stranger Things decor is still on full display. But glad they're keeping Saw, that was one of the stronger new mazes.

And what's happening to Trick r' Treat? I liked the maze for what it was (though a lot of black walls), but it seemed like it never had a crowd at all.

Guys... we have a fright Fest thread. Go use it. I already quoted Ethan's post over there
