Tiffany Izata the first time i rode this i was so scary because me being the dumbass i am i wanted to go in the front and me and my cousin were tge two people in the front and i hate how it stops i just like stops real fast and you hit you hed and i was 8 but i was tall so
We use to have this ride at the Sixflags in Arlington. Man, those were good times... I rode it for the first time on my birthday and they took it down on my birthday... Life sucks
Rode this yesterday XD I never get dizzy from rides, but there's something about going backwards through the loop and twists, that when I got off, I felt like I had been drinking for hours. :o
PLEASE READ!!! I’ve ridden every coaster in that park, and let me tell you... this is the WORST ride out there. As usual, Vekoma has created the most unpleasant, and violently rough rollercoaster. And I’m not just saying that, I’ve had my share on injuries on these coasters. For example, the Poltergeist has given me huge, purple bruises on my arms on separate occasions and I STILL think Boomerang is worse. While not receiving any bruising, the god awful head banging and ear slamming is enough to give you a killer headache for the rest of the day. I’ve ridden this ride over 10 times so I’m explain to you some of the issues i have with this ride: The harness: the pullover harness is awfully loose, and as a skinny 5’1 girl, I was off my seat the entire time. I didn’t feel secure at all, and was being slammed around the entire turnout. The revere shootout: It roughly yanks you backwards through the entire ride and has the most horrible feeling. If you’re an adrenaline junkie like me, you won’t feel it, but if you’re not used to the rush, you may black out.
Leyla Albdyri I strongly recommend Iron Rattler, but only if you’re riding front row! :) Superman is the best coaster in the Park, and Batman is fun but can bang your head if you’re not careful.
Gentlebreeze When I rode this it wasn’t loose at all lmao just cause you’re skinny doesn’t give you an excuse to shit on this ride. It was amazing as fuck and if you didn’t like it then don’t go on it. I really recommend this ride, it was amazing
Also I've ridden the batman multiple times and I never got hurt on it at all. And the superman is cool but not the best. I had high expectations but I was disappointed
The whole park is an advertisement. The Looney Toons cartoons played while waiting for a ride, Coke machines throughout the park, and Takis plastered over rides
rc gaming I went on it today and felt like I passed out at one point because my vision went completely black. it was fun but will probably not do it again lol.
This coaster's line used to be full of people. Now, its pretty much silent, and dead. I feel bad for the ride operators who have to just stand there, doing nothing but standing in the vacant sun waiting to wether go home, or operate the ride. Me and my mother went on it when there was no line at all. Now I see why theres no line. The coaster now is just bumpy. Mom got a headache and I just felt roughed up. I hope they end up taking more care of this coaster, or remove it completely.
I hated this ride. The vertical loops aren't what sucks, there's this weird twist that bangs your head against the side, and then jerks your neck the other way. It's not even fun, just painful. Skip this ride, go on the Wonder Woman one or the Iron Rattler. WAAAAAY more fun and zero injuries.
I rode this a few weeks ago! My favorite ride of all time. I was scared at first but once I got on ot, I didn't regret it. I will never regret getting on this ride. Until you throw up. But either than that, Best Ride Ever!
hehe we have this in north Cali... Painful but worth it :D me and my friends would go to six flags every week during summer break and ride this over and over again... Ahhh memories
I went on that in lake George when it started going up I get my legs were flying and I enjoy it when it went backwards on the loopy loops I felt I was flying off
MY SISTER MADE ME GO TO THE VERY BACK. To where the drop is steeper and you get more energy when going down. My other sister said she was trying to kill me cause it was my first ride ever 😂😂 loved it tho!! 😌😌
that damn chainlift that catches the ride to send it back through the loops always hurt, as soon as it catches that jolt is so sketchy, like you think something broke but you're not sure what sketchy, I wonder if that chainlift has ever failed, it must go through a lot of load catching the train like that
2nd cart is were me and my cousin sat I remembered them not pushing it down all the way and I almost fell out hitting my head on the cart in front of my and the only thing keeping me on was my cousin hold on wrist and my feet push against the cart in front of me yeah never doing that again lol
This roller coaster was scary af today. However I did stop at the convenience store omw home to get two bags of takis. I didn't wanna spend 20 bucks on a bag of takis in the park to just end up puking them up after the next ride.
Oh nooo! This is such a scary introduction to rollercoasters! This is my least favorite ride in the park by a landslide. If you’re ever at Fiesta Texas again and you want to give coasters another go, the Superman is a really smooth and fun one! To me it’s not scary at all, it just feels like you’re flying. :) This one, though, definitely made me feel like I was gonna die!!
When I went on this ride, the seat didn't fully secure. It was secure but still moved an inch so when we climbed backwards, the seat felt like it would open up. And this also affected when we returned because of that corkscrew
When you sit in the front the first drop is not that high but I say in the back and that drop was HIGH , I felt my stomach drop as we were going down because how high I was
Why does almost every Six Flags park have one of these? They’re not that fun because they’re pretty rough in my opinion.I’ll take it over a Vekoma SLC though.
I was always afraid of crazy rides. I remember entering Fiesta Texas for the first time at 8 years old and seeing this roller coaster. I had never seen one in person. I said “wow look at that big roller coaster” having zero intention on riding it. And my grandmother said “yup we’re gonna ride it” and I was like “WHAT.... NO NO PLEASE NO”... She forced me to ride it, and I didn’t like it.
It's terrifying, it looks boring but once your on the cart you're like " what the hell is this cra...*it starts to back up* finally something good is happeni......*goes almost vertical* well this is kinda cool! (Now keep in mind the restraint is small and a little lose) *The cart drops extremely fast before you even know what happened your going in a loop and a barrel roll and then a corkscrew and then another loop* Now you are holding on so tight and hoping that this restraint doesn't break and you kinda get lifted from your seat. My point, don't ever EVER let looks deceive you. Ever.
I agree, I hate the name "boomerang". Flashback is such a better name, ever since they moved the one from SFOT to SFSL they changed it to boomerang. Still my favorite coaster though.
I remember going into this roller coaster and thinking its name was takis, cause there was so much takis advertisement around it
Tiffany Izata the first time i rode this i was so scary because me being the dumbass i am i wanted to go in the front and me and my cousin were tge two people in the front and i hate how it stops i just like stops real fast and you hit you hed and i was 8 but i was tall so
Iimonye valdez ok
Same
I rode flashback at great escape, and there was a bunch of Twix advertisement
@@tntplumbing24 they added twix advertisements to boomerang at six flags discovery kingdom and my younger cousin thought the ride was called twix
I rode that a year or 2 ago, and the drop, where you start, doesn't look like much, but once you are actually on it.. I feels vertical..
I went on it yesterday having no idea what it was like
lol
DIY Life So true. I thought it looked kind of weak, but once you're up there, you're like whoa, this does feel vertical.
Love this ride!!!!!!!!
It's so deceiving. Incredible breeze in that first initial drop
4 words: I don't do backwards
SeptiplierPhan987 :0 me too!
same... i screamed on this ride
Princess mia actually the worst part is the first drop, right?
Same
I actually liked the backwards part better lol
it's loud af when it passes through the station
Yes, even more loud when people scream and it resonates in the station.
This was my first ever real roller coaster
is it still open
yeah
Wad up
Me too!!
Vy. T Omg same
I rode this yesterday, it was my first rollercoaster since I was always scared of them, turns out, I love them! This one is one of my favorites
I remember this my first roller coaster. I loved it since I felt nothing since I passed out
I went on this and I swear I thought the harness was to loose
Yes I was holding on tight hoping it wouldn't come too loose.
I went to this a year ago and me and my friend almost fell of because she was so scared, she pushed and I ended up almost falling to side
Me to.
Wesley Brannon ever heard of airtime?
Wesley Brannon me too
We use to have this ride at the Sixflags in Arlington. Man, those were good times... I rode it for the first time on my birthday and they took it down on my birthday... Life sucks
scollettenicolej yeap I remember that ride I miss it
scollettenicolej it's at Six Flags St Louis now HAHAHA my home park
scollettenicolej: the flashback was AWSOME, I don't know why they removed it. But at least they still have one like it!
Lnboria Same with me, it’s at my home park
scollettenicolej mr freeze more scary
This ride is a great warmup ride!
Rode this yesterday XD I never get dizzy from rides, but there's something about going backwards through the loop and twists, that when I got off, I felt like I had been drinking for hours. :o
Yeah I started blacking out on the backwards loop and almost fainted.
LJFrocksursocks so did I! and I never have passed out before.
PLEASE READ!!!

Gentlebreeze which rides would you recommend for six flags fiesta Texas?
Leyla Albdyri I strongly recommend Iron Rattler, but only if you’re riding front row! :) Superman is the best coaster in the Park, and Batman is fun but can bang your head if you’re not careful.
Gentlebreeze When I rode this it wasn’t loose at all lmao just cause you’re skinny doesn’t give you an excuse to shit on this ride. It was amazing as fuck and if you didn’t like it then don’t go on it. I really recommend this ride, it was amazing
Any seat at the Iran rattler is fine
Also I've ridden the batman multiple times and I never got hurt on it at all. And the superman is cool but not the best. I had high expectations but I was disappointed
I went on this and my eyes where closed the whole time and I my anxiety decied to scare me and make me think I was gonna fall out of the seat
SAME ! but then i forced myself to get on more roller coasters without closing my eyes and i actually had fun
Same here!!! I hated it lol
Closing your eyes makes it worse
Really, Six Flags? You turned the entire train into an advertisement?
its been there for 3 years
Back in 2011 they had mobile "droids" all over the cars on the Bobsled ride (can't remember what its called).
Yeah it been their for years actually soooo yeah
I'm not emo mom Takis?
The whole park is an advertisement. The Looney Toons cartoons played while waiting for a ride, Coke machines throughout the park, and Takis plastered over rides
I've been on that ride I hated it it was terrifying
rc gaming i wouldn't exactly call it terrifying considering i've been on the tallest looping roller coaster in the world
rc gaming I went on it today and felt like I passed out at one point because my vision went completely black. it was fun but will probably not do it again lol.
rc gaming it was terrifying and the first time I rode it I thought I was going to fall out
For me this was nothing
It’s supposed to be and fun
I rode this a couple years back and when it was going up backwards I felt like I was about to fall out I was holding on for dear life !! Fun ride tho
I rode this ride yesterday and I pulled a muscle in my back when I went backwards
oh my god i remember riding this one as a kid at six flags over georgia i got such an adrenaline rush from it.
This coaster's line used to be full of people. Now, its pretty much silent, and dead. I feel bad for the ride operators who have to just stand there, doing nothing but standing in the vacant sun waiting to wether go home, or operate the ride.

That looks awesome!
I rode this a few weeks ago! My favorite ride of all time. I was scared at first but once I got on ot, I didn't regret it. I will never regret getting on this ride. Until you throw up. But either than that, Best Ride Ever!
i was terrified of this ride and hated it the first time i rode it. now it’s my favorite roller coaster of all time
I love this ride so much
I rode this 2 days ago and boy that first drop was so strong I didn’t want to ride anything else
this is like boomerang at knotts berry farm
There are 55 Vekoma Boomerangs worldwide.
This ride was really fun and it goes by fast, but that first drop though knock the wind right out ya
Insane how this ride put takis on the spot
now i know why they call it the boomerang
I might be going in 2 years so I’m watching a bunch of videos right now!
I love people who just are like yah lets do dis again
I thought I was gonna die when I got on
This ride looks scary....I'm totally getting on this when I go!! 😬
I think this used to be the Flashback at Six Flags in Arlington. They disassembled it and shipped it to Fiesta Texas and set it up there.
I always felt like I was gonna fall out
Same
GP
I've been on this roller coaster it's so fun
Lol I luved this ride its bot scary at all I know it goes up REALLY HIGH and it's takes 2 loopes but it goes fast and u don't feel a thing
near the back when you're going up it feels like the drop in your stomach lasts for like 8 seconds but other than that i love this ride
hehe we have this in north Cali... Painful but worth it :D me and my friends would go to six flags every week during summer break and ride this over and over again... Ahhh memories
I went on that in lake George when it started going up I get my legs were flying and I enjoy it when it went backwards on the loopy loops I felt I was flying off
This coaster is also recommended to the bat at Canada's wonderland in Vaughan ontario
i cried when we went backwards
that roller coaster looks fun
I love how the front of the cart has like “takis” on it 😂
This ride is now re-named the taki tower to hell
MY SISTER MADE ME GO TO THE VERY BACK. To where the drop is steeper and you get more energy when going down. My other sister said she was trying to kill me cause it was my first ride ever 😂😂 loved it tho!! 😌😌
Ill be dead by the time it finished
I love that ride !!!
first time i rode this it was a breeze! second time i got off and my legs were shaking lol backwards is the best feeling ever!!
that damn chainlift that catches the ride to send it back through the loops always hurt, as soon as it catches that jolt is so sketchy, like you think something broke but you're not sure what sketchy, I wonder if that chainlift has ever failed, it must go through a lot of load catching the train like that
Just rode this today. It was so fun. my fav is the rattler! It's 10x better than the boomerang
Marissa Mares definetly!
I went on this in 2017 I was crying my butt off it was soo scary
100 times better in the back row. You get a bigger drop in the Beginning Rookie🤣🤣
best ride hands down
i love this ride
Ayyyy, this was the day TMNT 2012 came out:)
Ok but I never seen that many people in line for a boomerang ride
I can't believe they don't have this ride at Knotts anymore
Check out videos of the new coaster Hangtime that just opened today where boomerang was, its a much better ride
2nd cart is were me and my cousin sat I remembered them not pushing it down all the way and I almost fell out hitting my head on the cart in front of my and the only thing keeping me on was my cousin hold on wrist and my feet push against the cart in front of me yeah never doing that again lol
Oh wow this Boomerang was exactly like the one they had in Knott's Berry Farm CA.😱
Robert Campos Same ride producer. Usually a certain track will belong to one company and amusement parks will pay them to build the ride in the park
This ride was my very first roller coster ride ever
This roller coaster was scary af today. However I did stop at the convenience store omw home to get two bags of takis. I didn't wanna spend 20 bucks on a bag of takis in the park to just end up puking them up after the next ride.
This ride is just so damn cool. I wish a park like knoebels Grove would get one.
I rode this ride today and I got stuck at the end!!! The seats didn't go up! I was horrified!😳
I rode that ride when it 1rst came out at Fiesta Texas. Fun ride too. 👍😎🎢
this was my first rollercoaster and i’ve never gotten on another one
Oh nooo! This is such a scary introduction to rollercoasters! This is my least favorite ride in the park by a landslide. If you’re ever at Fiesta Texas again and you want to give coasters another go, the Superman is a really smooth and fun one! To me it’s not scary at all, it just feels like you’re flying. :) This one, though, definitely made me feel like I was gonna die!!
When I went on this ride, the seat didn't fully secure. It was secure but still moved an inch so when we climbed backwards, the seat felt like it would open up. And this also affected when we returned because of that corkscrew
I went on this and I swear to god I thought I was going to fall out meanwhile my boyfriend sitting right next to me said his restraint was too tight 😂
This was my first ride in a while and man was I screaming
I'm going in a few days can't wait!!!!!
Me tooo
I'm going tmr
this is the spitting image of the Cobra at Carowinds
That looks incredible!
Just got on today a classic ride
When you sit in the front the first drop is not that high but I say in the back and that drop was HIGH , I felt my stomach drop as we were going down because how high I was
Ikr it was the worst feeling ever
What about the rest of the ride??
ikr I sat on the back
I love it!
This was my first rollercoaster about a month ago and it sucked the life out of me
no bc when I went on this ride I felt like I was gon fall off or sum 😭😭
same 😭🏃♀️
I rode that thing for the first time today...i dont regret it at all
Why does almost every Six Flags park have one of these? They’re not that fun because they’re pretty rough in my opinion.I’ll take it over a Vekoma SLC though.
Damn... Good old times

I went to six flags today cuz its ma birthday and that was the first roller coaster I've been on when I got there
is it scary
is it scary
+lєn - lєn alright I will just get on it to get over my fear
same but it wasn't my birthday when I went there
It's terrifying, it looks boring but once your on the cart you're like " what the hell is this cra...*it starts to back up* finally something good is happeni......*goes almost vertical* well this is kinda cool!

My point, don't ever EVER let looks deceive you. Ever.
We got stuck on the top for a hour when I went
Sooooooooo much fun!!
I went on it yesterday and it was super fun
I got stuck on this when I road it like 10 years ago for 45 mins hahaha
I've rode this ride about 100 times I live super close to six flags I miss going on weekends :( Corona sucks
We had our season passes
I would always get that one icecream I forget the name it makes smoke in your mouth
Im sitting here watching this, thinking back to the time I rode this....ive never been mkre terrified
I rode this twice I loved this ride
One of my favorite rides
This remind me of the Flash Back they use to have at Six Flags Over Tx.
I went on this yesterday and I'm 11 at the beginning it feels like you're going to slip out but then after that it's fun
this was my first rollercoaster, i rode it when i was eight
im going this monday and im totally getting on with my friend
I went there and sat at the front cause it feels better that the back
I agree, I hate the name "boomerang". Flashback is such a better name, ever since they moved the one from SFOT to SFSL they changed it to boomerang. Still my favorite coaster though.
I rode this yesterday it was fast but super fun
it lifts you up at the beginning when you go up and then you feel tickles in your stomach
I went on this and my family thought it was gonna be a baby ride but when we rode it .... it was much further than a baby ride
No joke just watching the video makes me shake in fear of this ride
