Airtime Thrills: My shit in the bathroom by Johnny Rockets was an epic experience. The toilet flushed faster than Full Throttle's launch
The ones by Goliath!!! 😂😂😂
@@motorguy4203 nahhh the western themed ones by revolutions flash pass entrance are goated
@@annoyingperson2255 guy
I just wanna tell u how im feeling
Gotta make u understand
Never gonna give you up
He couldn't identify the best moment on Magic Flyer because each element is so mind boggling that it's impossible to decide
10/10 would recommend
Magic Flyer cant even be considered a simple "ride". Its an experience of pure joy and wonder.
Next week: Top ten rollercoasters with blue track and a zero g roll.
Last: scream
The lift hill was the best part on green lantern
😂
😂
He’s not wrong tho
It’s the only part that I felt no pain.
True tho
All of the airtime hills on Magic Flyer should all be at the top
Yessir
yrp
Should have gotten a b&m
Wait a minute, I just noticed something, technically, Revolutions loop was the first modern coaster loop so it was the tallest and smallest one at one point and Full Throttles had the tallest loop at one point, so the coaster with what ones was the smallest loop is right next to the coaster that ones had the biggest loop.
Thats one way to look at it
Which is also right next to the tallest pretzel loop😉
@@YurBoiCarson Which is right next to the tallest loop at one time, Viper's 1st loop. :)
The answer for Twisted Colossus is "All of them". Nice video, Chris! You have really interesting and unique ideas.
Not only does X2 have that awesome 1st drop, but you get a great view of the park while you are climbing up the lift hill.
Agreed!
I guess we can call Full throttle “Brand new revolution”
Top ten worst hypers with orange paint: *Goliath has entered the chat*
You should do this for every major park you have been to!
I want to especially when i get back to them to refresh my memory
If I don’t see the the laterals on speedy Gonzales in the top three I’m going to flip.
Well
Thats pretty much the only thing on the ride lol
@@annoyingperson2255 guess I need to go snowboarding tomorrow..... maybe need a hospital as well. Only done a flip a few times
Superman's slow acceleration is meant to represent him taking off and flying into the air I think.
Pre 1995 the race to make increased multiple inversion coasters, resulted in rides that were slow, boring, and quite uncomfortable due to the shoulder restraints.
In recent years, coaster manufacturers have really changed the experience with incredible elements, pushing the envelope of extreme excitement.
How times have changed.
I really hope one day manafacturers start to build coasters like X2 and Eejanaika again
Six Flags Magic Mountain is my home park, I would rank things this way:
1. X2- First Drop
2. Twisted Colossus- Hill before the High Five or the Top Gun Stall
3. Tatsu- Pretzel Loop- This is fun intense, not like Goliath's helix
4. Full Throttle- Hang time in the Loop or Final Drop
5. West Coast Racer- High 5
6. Batman- Zero G Roll
7. Scream- Zero G Roll
8. Viper- First Drop
9. Apocalypse- First Drop in back row
10. Riddler's Revenge- the First Loop
11. Ninja- Helix over water
12. Goliath- Air Time Hill- you are correct it is hit or miss
13. New Revolution- Loop
14. Superman- The top of the ride
15. Gold Rusher- Final Helix
16. Canyon Blaster- Final Air Time Hills
Appreciating the off season content. It’s even cold in FL this winter.
Man I can tell you as a California resident myself, I've been riding these coasters for years. I certainly have my favorites and rides that aren't my favorite but still enjoy. X2 is out of this world with its odd, disorienting, and almost unpredictable layout. Twisted Colossus is so much fun with the dueling experience and that top gun stall is amazing.
Tatsu is high of the ground and it really feels like you're soaring. That pretzel loop is the most intense element I've experienced. Full Throttle with that 160 ft vertical loop that gives good hang time. Riddler's Revenge is smooth and very fun. My favorite part is going though that vertical loop circling around the lifthill. Goliath with that intense downward helix that can still make people gray-out.
Batman was my first ever B&M coaster and its a work of art. The inversions are spaced out perfectly and it's stupid intense. Scream has a pretty good layout even tho its nothing unique but still fun. Ninja has a long layout through the woods. Viper is a vintage smooth ride that I always have a soft spot for.
So many great things about the roller coasters here. We basically share some similarities with our favorites at this park!
Out of 200 coasters, Superman’s backwards acceleration, T.C.’s airtime, and X2’s first drop are in the best 15 coaster moments I’ve ever experienced!
Hot take: X2’s first drop is the best first drop in the United States. Would say world but that probably goes to Eejanaika even though I haven’t ridden it lol
I haven’t been to a lot of parks I’m trying to think abt anything else- lightning rod. Twisted collasus green side, steel vengeance is the only things I could think about
I remember riding Ninja back around 1990. Loved it - the idea of the cars hanging from the track and the extra motion that provided was fantastic. The last time I was at Magic Mountain a few years ago I trudged up the hill to the ride - only disappointment was how derelict and un-maintained the area was. Several building looked like they were about ready to fall down.
One day I'd like to see "The Evil Genius" Mr. Shilkie redo X2 into S&S X3.....with a little bit of that Eejanaika twist to it!!!
Wait, what makes Alan an “evil genius”? Also S&S already worked on the X2 makeover so that wouldn’t make sense.
@@DoswarePictures go and look at an Eejanaika video, and look at an X2 video, and THEN come back and tell me the difference.
The best element in the park is 1000% the helix on hot rod racers. Speedy Gonzalez whips you around that element
YES! I blacked out and died on that element, so good
@@twistedgwazi5727 exactly
Okay, Speedy Gonzalez too. That was the most recent coaster I’ve ridden, which was in opening year.
I'm old enough to have gone to the park when Gold Rusher and Mountain Express were the only coasters. Nice to see the helix finale of Gold Rusher crack the Top 10. And it's too bad the finale of Ninja is quickly followed by the end of ride lift hill. The price you pay for starting on top of the mountain.
Wow, so you were even there when Revolution first opened? What was it like? I’ve heard stories about some sort of fog and the line taking ~6 hours to get through.
They could've just had a separate unload platform at the bottom of the mountain and had the empty trains be lifted up.
"Tatsu's scenic turnaround"
*I then spit out water*
NGL I'm glad you gave Goliath its time with the double helix. That would be my favorite element imo. However I have not RIDDEN Goliath. I rode her sister, which packs 2 OF THEM. Love you Titan! ^^
Maybe it's because I'm a skinny legend but Titan's floater hill usually delivers a couple seconds of levitation for me.
@@aj74205 I'm also VERY skinny so maybe that's why I still enjoy Titan?
Nice video! I agree with a lot of these but I was surprised to see Riddler’s vertical loop as it’s best element. Heck, there’s even an inclined loop that provides generally the same sensations but.. well.. inclined.
Inclined loop is ehhh less of an inversion
Major disagreements:
Goliath - first drop
Batman the ride - zero g roll
Superman - stall at top
Tatsu - pretzel loop
Other than that this is a pretty good list
Goliaths first drop is really...really shallow but it does last a long time. But i understand the other 3. The zero g roll is really good on batman but i think the corkscrews are more whippy
@@AirtimeThrills something about it (height, train design, tunnel at the bottom) means that even tho it's not as steep or fast, you still feel it much more than on a B&M hyper
@@AirtimeThrills Video POV's don't show it, but when I'm actually on Goliath that tunnel at the bottom of the first drop looks really tiny. That's the biggest thrill on it for me.
@@elliotearles8302 Every B&M hyper has vastly superior drop shaping and forces, but a tunnel does add something. Raging Bull's drop eats Goliath's drop for breakfast, and then still has room for Titan's.
You really know your stuff and make great content. Can’t get enough, even though I haven’t ridden a fraction of the coasters you have.
My favorite element on X2 is the backflip. Such an epic yet graceful maneuver!!
I live in Switzerland and right now its 0:27 AM and I always stay awak to watch your amazing Videos on release...
Thats some dedication
@@AirtimeThrills Yeah you're right, but its worth it.😁
Any video that talks about twisted colossus makes me regret not riding it because of the long wait. I didn't realize it was one of the best coasters in the park, I thought Goliath was which was part of why I rode it twice(the other reason why I rode it over TC is because goliath was the reason I came to the park) I didn't realize that there was a much better ride I could've rode instead.
Well on the plus side I have these videos to refer to and watch so I don't make the same mistake again
If the park ever reopens you can make up for that mistake
I love intensity so my list includes the elements you talked about but didn't select for the most part.
Full throttles top of the loop is so special. I like it better at night even better when it's cool/cold and Holiday in the Park is going on. Nothing like it.
Loving the videos chris!
Totally agree on Tatsu's turn, love those views.
Surprised that Gold Rusher is so high on the list, always like to joke that Gold Rusher is the best ride in the park 🤣
Since CGA is opening soon, here's hoping this park and KBF open soon. Great video as usual!
I saw Full Throttle roll back. I was sitting on the train in the final brake run when the other train rolled back. It took about 10 minutes to get things reset. It was in the last hour of the day, sun setting, and I was afraid I wouldn't get to X2 in time for a couple last rides, but I made it.
I agree with most of this list but for tatsu I love the turn around that's facing riddlers and the pretzel loop of course, the first loop of viper especially in the front row is awesome, X2 the first raven turn (I've got a scary story about the drop) and the 2nd dive loop on riddlers.
sweet video! gonna watch rn!
Love the consistency man, thank you. Quick request, could you do an update on parks this season. For example my home park (Carowinds) isn’t opening until May 22 and not the 27 of March like anticipated. But Dollywood only 3.5 hours away from me is opening on March 13. I also heard KD is getting a wing coaster..? Please say this isn’t so- they won’t put one in place of Nighthawk or Vortex and then it’s just praying for an RMC fix of Hurler
I was good with you passing on Goliath's helix, but I couldn't accept the skip of the pretzel loop. For me, that's right up there with X2's drop and several moments on Twisted Colossus!
I'm not a huge fan of x2 overall as that final raven turn always leaves me feeling like crap, but I have to admit the first drop and the big raven turn are insane and some of the best elements of all time.
The final raven turn is absolutely brutal
7:29 this image right here could easily be a meme
Excellent video young man! AGAIN! Lol. The first time I went to magic mountain was in 1977 before you were born. The only coasters were Gold rusher and the brand new Revolution. Your videos are so accurate and that's why I'm a true fan of yours. I'm so happy to see you and your new family "surviving" during this time we are in. I always "like" your videos sometimes before I even watch them because I appreciate the work and honestly opinion of everything you do. Keep your amazing videos coming. From a true fan, peace and respect to you and your family!❤
What about Mountain Express and Clown Coaster (Magic Flyer)?
Thanks! I appreciate it
great video its very unique
Last ride of the night on apocalypse is crazy with the insane lateral forces especially when your riding alone
More of these please!
My Niece and I had a roll back on Full Throttle and it was, Awesome!!! As soon as the launch released I look at my niece and said, we are not going to make it, best ride ever!
3:13 Wouldn't you technically be looking down?
I like this idea, definitely do more for other parks
my favorite moments on each Magic Mountain coaster:
Canyon Blaster: the first two hills
Goldrusher: same as Airtime Thrills
Revolution: same as Airtime Thrills
Ninja: same as Airtime Thrills
Viper: the second and third vertical loops
Batman: the zero-g roll
Superman: the moment of airlessness at the very top
Riddler's Revenge: the dive loops
Goliath: the gray-out helix
X2: the outside raven turn
Scream: same as Airtime Thrills
Tatsu: the pretzel loop
Apocalypse: same as Airtime Thrills
Full Throttle: same as Airtime Thrills
Twisted Colossus: the top gun stall
West Coast Racers: same as Airtime Thrills
My friends and I were actually next in line for full throttle when we saw a roll back on the loop, turned a 10 min wait into a 20 min wait😤
I know the blue camelback is really great! But my favorite moment on Twisted colossus is the top gun stall
Video suggestion: rankings the coaster layouts at SFMM from worst to best (I know this would probably be a really hard one)
MAGIC FLYER HAS THOMAS ON IT WHICH MEANS IT’S SOOOOOOOO AMAZING
Actually it’s Percy. Thomas is the other train.
Good news: Big Apple Coaster(New York New York Hotel) reopened with new Premier Rides Comfort Collars, so you'll probably like it a little bit more
Riddler's Revenge's airtime hill is def my favorite part of the ride lol
Actually, the best element on Magic Flyer is the front car
Yeah, it’s just a shame it’s no longer tied to Thomas the Tank Engine.
I’ve never understood people saying Tatsu’s (or any flying coaster) pretzel loop is intense. It’s more trippy, I hardly notice any forces during it, just a super fun element that for some reason a lot of people think they’re being crushed or something lol
I was a part of the gp when I rode x2. It took me a few hours to decide I would ride. Also I had no idea that the seats flipped. I don’t think I ever screamed louder in my life then I did my first time riding x2
Video Idea: Best Elements in every Six Flags and Cedar Fair park:)
I agree with most of your picks, with the exception of Tatsu. I'll even agree with Goliath's floater hill.
@Action Toy Movies lol it depends on the day. I got a tiny bit when I rode it in 2016, but I rode its sister coaster Titan back in September and got some decent sustained floater
Shocking that a channel titled "Airtime Thrills" believes that airtime is the #1 element on most of those rides. ;) Seriously though, I agree with most of those. Even though I like the pretzel loop the best on Tatsu (I just love that feeling of my back being pressed downward into my seat) I still totally agree with that scenic turnaround. Tatsu is one of my most favorite coasters to ride during Holiday in the Park for that precise reason. Even though the height still scares the hell out of me! And +1 on that X2 first drop. It's the part I most look forward to every time I ride it!
Hey Chris, could you do a series with you ranking parks on their coaster collection by manufacturer?
I did this with B&M, but the only thing is not many parks have multiples from the same manufacturer
I’m 10 and am craving for tatsu
Yeah, that dragon is hot.
Because of the flames
Of force
I saw full throttle roll back early last year, it was the ride before me, and the ride closed for 30 minutes after. ):
Can you do top 10 queue line switchbacks at Elitch Gardens?
I was on vacation in Cali last week. I rode X2 twice in back once in the daytime another time at night. It is pretty rough at the end but I still don’t know what to think of the ride it’s terrifying and wild but I can’t give it a rating because is it more fun or chaotic ? I’d have to ride it some more. Riddlers revenge banged my head like a ping pong ball on the last half especially the corkscrews I’m not sure how to prevent that. The last time I rode a stand up before that was Iron Wolf at Great America in 2008 and I don’t recall it doing that. It was one of my favorite rides in the park at the time.
I guess I’m that weird guy that loves bone crushing g-forces 😂 cause I love that pretzel loop on Tatsu and the helix on Goliath
I rolled back on Full Throttle’s loop last January and it was the best experience ever!!!
these videos are consisting more facecam and it is really showing the growth of the channel. it's like phase 2 of airtime thrills.
Oh hell i am old lol on opening day i rode gold rusher in the back row and it was my 1st coaster and i have a pride it is still there 💝
Is no one talk about the amazing music in the background?
2:51 Sad that is true now. RIP Tower Of Terror 2, shame I never got to ride you
I got a rollback on FT, super cool lol
I know its not a coaster or an element but my #1 would be the view from drop of doom. Its terrifying but yet so pretty
I can't believe you don't love tatsu's pretzel loop, but I do agree x2 first drop is the best element at MM.
Day 1 of asking Chris for a park battle between Busch Gardens Tampa and Worlds of Fun for the super bowl. My money is on worlds of fun, especially after his last trip...
Nah. BGT has one of the best lineups in the country. They also have Iron Gwazi
@@bapmain7587 it was a joke...but I do agree. BGT is my #3 park right now and Gwazi will hopefully bring it up
I was there in December and seeing Iron Gwazi in person is amazing. Also, the lines were insanly long when we went (Cheetah hunt was 3 hours)
@@bapmain7587 lol I waited 2 hours for Cobras Curse on New Years Eve
*DETROIT LIONS*
My favourites are the top two on this list, both times in the back car.
Yes more about Magic Mountain
you should do this for more parks
My top bucket list park next to energylandia.
Anyway of getting in contact with you? Got a future trip in 2022 and I Wanna ask some quistions, love your videos!!
Over and underrated parks we NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED
Those double corkscrews killed my head lol, those were my least favorite elements.
Now make a custom planet coaster with all of these
Just wondering, but does X2’s drop actually pull any type of force or do ppl just like it cuz of its unique sensation and how terrifying it looks?
It has a stomach dropping feeling when you are freefalling and you flip onto your back
@@AirtimeThrills ok
Top 2 Elements: On X2 and Twisted Colossus
We weren't surprised.
Was all the footage of Superman from it running backwards? Now that I've finally done the launch forward and fallen backwards, I can say I prefer the backwards launch and falling forward.
Yeah it was. When i made this they hadnt turned the train around yet
Best moment on Goliath. When it's over.
I like this. This is a good video. I like this. I need more. Ha
And ranking twisted colossus’s elements
Video idea: Top 10 Inversions
You should do one for Cedar Point
Hey, Chris! I was wondering if I could have your permission to make reactions to some of your videos. I will give you credit and I am not monetized. Thank you.
Go ahead!
@@AirtimeThrills thanks, man.
1:52
YES
And where is our *beloved* green lantern first flight? 🤣
Call me crazy but GOLIATHS AIRTIME HILL IS ELITE!!!
everything else abt it is trash though
Its elite sometimes, others its just as trash as the rest of the ride
Number #1 Sixflags ❤️❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
im sorry but that green high 5 was insane. X2s drop feels like you have flipped over in a car.
