Texas Giant and The Rattler never lived up to Texas Cyclone in my opinion. Then again, Texas Cyclone was my first thrill ride. I felt like I became a man that day. This ride is the one that got me into coasters. Steel Vengeance is now my all-time favorite coaster, but Texas Cyclone will always be my first love. RIP, TC!
TC was my first big coaster. I use to ride it all the time back in high school when I had a season pass. I always felt that the pacing on this coaster was amazing.
Dinn never really figured out the woodie.
Those rides are sounded like ass tho
That old electronic voice going up the lift hill brings back so many memories, "Please remain seated. Face forward. Hold on to your lap bar at all times."
It sounds like that has been there since that ride opened in the mid 70s!
I first rode on 1983.
@@JKB3670 Was the voice still there?
Oh my goodness, just the anticipation you felt going up the incline for the first drop. Cyclone was the ride of all rides in the 70s. First time I rode I closed my eyes from fear the whole time . It banged you up so bad but we loved it. Thanks for bringing back those summer days from the 70s when life was super simple and uncomplicated.
This ride is still my fondest roller coaster memory. Wish it were still around.
Well it’s not. Wake up and smell the coffeee
The Texas Cyclone was THE BEST Roller Coaster 🎢.
The herky jerky of the tracks on that wood???
Nothing compares, no steel coaster will ever come close to the love and connection the people of Houston has with the Cyclone.
It should still be running!!!
Wow! Rode this back in the 70's. Thanks! Awesome video! Brings back memories. Sign says "Stay in Your Seat", after the first drop I couldn't stay in my seat! I clung to the bar for dear life! Best Rollercoaster EVER!!!
That crickety sound going to the first drop brought back so many memories.
Same!!
For some reason I broke out in tears 😭
Came here as a kid in the early 70's and was here with my 8-year old daughter the day they closed.
Cyclone is my favorite roller coaster of all time. I have always compare ever coaster since then to the Cyclone. It was jarring, intimidating, and fast. Once you rode it you would never forget it. I loved riding the last car and catch huge air. No other coaster gave me the thrills the Cyclone gave. It was sad Astroworld is not around today. Every time I drive by where the park was located it brings back years of memories. RIP
Losing the Cyclone. Not going to lie. It hurt. It's like a part of your childhood gets destroyed. Feels like your hearts been ripped out. I still miss the rattling wood. The weaving in & out the wood frame. Many of us would give anything in the world to ride it again. But this is the closest we'll get now. Thank you for bringing back memories.
OMG SO GLAD this is one here! I practically lived at Astroworld as a teen!!! I rode the front seat MANY MANY times, and the back only once...Cause it came OFF the track and would damage you big time! TY for the memories, we miss you Astroworld!
Season pass holder 🖐🖐🖐
No one believes me that the back cart came off the track,that's why you had to he 18 years old to ride it!
I always rode in the back seat. Definitely a fun coaster
Brings back many memories. My parents would buy me a Astroworld season pass every summer. Loved the Texas Cyclone. It would beat you up but as kids we could not get enough.
Astroworld........such a tragic shame.
BackSeatJunkie IKR......I was never able to visit there and YET I MISS IT!!
BackSeatJunkie this place was my childhood along with the astrodome
What happened to it? Went there weekly as a kid in the 70s.

@BackSeatJunkie I was the Texas Cyclone Ride Attendant I was there for the final weekend
I'm 52 years old. But, I still miss the Texas Cyclone. I would love to ride you a hundred or thousand more times! I wish my little girl could experience it, as well... And not just on RUclips!
There’s always the Georgia cyclone in six flags over Georgia so your daughter can ride that and recreate the experience.
@@jorgenvonstrangle4725Georgia Cyclone is dead, however we here at Great America have Viper, which is our cyclone
The Cyclone and the Greased Lightning were my first REAL rollercoasters. I miss them too.
I worked as the Ride Attendent on the Texas Cyclone at Astroworld
Michael Salazar Thank you! This was my first roller coaster!
@@hallieharker4384 it was my first roller coaster as well!! I became an adrenaline junkie at a very young age!👍
Wow!!!
I still have neck damage from this coaster. It was a rough ass ride.
But it, like the rest of Astroworld, will always be held dear in the hearts of those who have visited.
I’ve been on a lot of newer, “better” rides.. But nothing slammed you around like that ride.. Wow.. And the old school cars with no head support?.. Nasty..
My friend and me road this coaster 56 times 1 day. Back to back... what a blast that day was and memory....
Good'ol days for sure..
Thank You, Travis Scott🙌🙏
Damian Huncho to think he based a lot of things off of this.
Rode all the time with my friends back in the eighties 😀 One of the best coasters ever!
Thanks for the memories....I too always rode in front. I sure do miss those good old days.
I rode this in 1998, and couldnt ride another rollercoaster since. It took the thrill seeker spirit right out of me. I felt like I was about to died with all the dips and turns back to back. Oh, and I'm afraid of tornados also. 😲😰😭
Lol.. I’ve ridden that thing 100 times, and it never fails.. Someone, usually shaking, says they’ll never get on another roller coaster ever again..
I rode back in 98. Durrrrrrrrrr. Who cares
This the ride that made me scared of heights! I haven't got on a roller coaster ever since 😂🤦♀️
If this park could have still exist, imagine they would remake this ride like the Iron Rattler, the New Texas Giant, Twisted Colossus
right. Better yet remake this one PLUS create an RMC coaster as a complement.
Funny, I was just thinking about that earlier. Yes, it would have been updated like Colossus, for sure.
If the park was still there, I don't think that they would of made an RMC out of it. The whole point of this ride was to remember the original Cyclone at Coney Island.
Samuel Clamuel Good point, it’s Six Flags. You never know what they might do. 😂
Yep. I could see it now...Iron Cyclone....going from a 92ft first drop to probably a fear inducing near 200 ft first drop. 0_0
My favorite ride at astroworld i was there every day during summer with that season pass always the first ride i got on no matter how long the wait and the last one before i leave
That Season pass. Lmao. Yup. I had that season pass every summer. Miss Astroworld. My childhood was there. Thats where me and my friends would get girls numbers and be too scared to call them. Was mad when I found out they were tearing it down. That and Waterworld
First and last… Always..
to be able to ride the Texas Cyclone again!
Still one of my favorite wooden roller coasters. The pacing on this ride was amazing.
Best ride in Astroworld. I miss it.
I rode this coaster 23 times in 1 hour. Was trying to break the record but I tied it.
People back than considered this as one of the best wooden coasters in the country at the tine
I miss Astroworld so much! Lots of good memories!!!
having a season pass to here in the summer is one of my favorite memories of all time
Rode it a million times...great memories oh Houston...stuck in Florida for work and I'm craving tex mex and Cajun food
I had a dream last night that I was riding this coaster, so I had to come watch the video
This was my first ride ever , most funnest one !! Rip Six Flags
Back in 1976, this coaster was a big deal, and Robert Cartmell claims this as his favorite coaster back then.
I was never on the "Texas Cyclone". However I have been on the "Cyclone" at Coney Island which the "Texas Cyclone" was patterned after.
The Texas Cyclone kicked Coney Cyclone's butt!
Great ride 1980s
It's crazy how many deep drops it had (7 or 8) back to back having to catch your breath!!!! Today, you'll be lucky to have 2 deep drops if that.
there were support cables attached to the top of that teepee support at @1:25 to the middle section of the roller coaster structure on each end. as I waited in line, I would see each one tighten up as the coaster went by in the middle section on the curve.
Wen i tell this this ride was brutal felt like whiplash.
When they brought the old cars back without the head rests I had to go back and ride her one more time.. Nothing jerked you around like that thing did.. Total beast..
Miss this ride
Six Flags Astroworld I worked at for 2 years
At first I was kinda hesitating to get on the Texas cyclone, but once I got on The Texas cyclone for the first time I wanted to ride it again and again and I did! Once I road it I wanted to go again. The Texas cyclone was a jerking ride but sooo much fun!! I always loved AstroWorld!!! Its just a shame that Houston Texas does not have an amusement park,,? Thay should have not destroyed our most fun amusement park in Houston Texas!!! Houston is too big to not have a amusement park. Please Bring Back Astroworld To Houston Texas. We need a Big amusement park here. It doesn’t look good for Houston Texas Not to have an amusement park! I miss Astrowold sooo much. It was The best amusement park that we did have. .. Again Please Bring Back Astrowold!! If not Astrowold , Build a great amusement park for all of us that loved AstroWorld all the rides, and The Texas Cyclone for sure!! 🎢🎠🎡❤️❣️♥️
I miss Astroworld so much!
my neck hurts after watching this but man what a coaster, first one I ever got on
It was rough but it was a great coaster.
My favorite ride ever!!!! Thank you!!!!
Mine too!
I rode this as a kid! It was awesome!
I remember riding in the front a few times cause no one else wanted to and we didn’t want to wait for it to come around again.
Last time I was at Astroworld, I looked up at the Cyclone and saw boards hanging loose, just kind of rattling. I said NOPE and found something smarter and safer to ride.
Ok GP
Are you sure you want to completely demolish Wooden Roller Coaster 1?
Sadly this ride no longer exists. Six Flags Astroworld was demolished in 2006. Close to to year when Six Flags New Orleans closed and it sits abadoned.
mintydemon it's not abandoned I drive by it all the time it's just extra parking now
+CM Cuber He was referring to SFNO sitting abandoned.
Such a shame AstroWorld doesn't exist anymore.
actually, the whole park was demolished. Astro world isn't abandoned. It's just gone. The lot is occasionally used for parking during the rodeo.
This is what the World Series is like 2017 Houston Astro's + the 2nd run for it in 2019!!!!! Go Astro's!!!!!
My favorite ride!
One of the two best wooden roller coasters ever! The other IMO was The Rattler at Fiesta Texas.
Totally agree. Especially both in their original layouts. 4 bench seat on the cyclone and the original Rattler drop.
This is like the Cyclone at Coney Island!
+Gra Piken It is a reverse copy of the Coney Island one but quite a bit bigger. Orginally Astroworld was going to by the Coney Island one and move it to the park
JohnYChen It's a shame this coaster was lost because it was legendary. It seems better than many of today's steel coasters that comprise of just loops and turns. I think the design is stylish. I still love wooden rollercoasters the most.
It's a shame that the reincarnation of another 'Cyclone' at Magic Mountain (The Psyclone) was a bit of a disaster. After great expense the ride proved to be too rough for passengers and it had to be demolished.
But not really. Much better!
That pole with the sticker on it, how did they not break their arm? At a time my 2 favourite roller coasters were this and Screamin' Eagle at SF over MidAmerica.
Thank you so much, that did my heart good!
The back seat was always the best..
YES! Swaying and bucking like a rodeo bull, always *sure* it was going to jump the track 😃
I’m from Houston and remember riding this as a kid growing up in the 80’s. But once you go to cedar point In Ohio, all of the coasters everywhere else sucks in comparison.
I remember the long line for this ride..
The memories
Came here for travis scott
❤❤
I never got the chance to ride this, and I seethe with envy of those who have....
Man I wish I could I ride this cuz miss astroworld and always been scared to ride rollercoasters
Sounded like someone said turtle power.
Astro
Was this the day before or the final day you filmed this I was their on that day I think I was on break
Hard to believe that it has almost been 20 years now. Houston still does not have a major amusement park.
@@johnychen yeah I'll bet it's sad that AstroWorld is gone
I’ve wridden this thing before it was the most scared I’ve ever been in my life
Good thing my neck cartilage and bones were young and flexible. It was a magical place.
Only coaster...ever...i would not ride more than once
Think i was 12 and me snd my brother waited for front set.what a ride.
And I think Foghat was playing in the dome that day.
My first ride that day was about halfway seat.
I think someone puked.idk
Then waited for front set i think it was like a 3 hour wait.
Who knew this was gonna be a glider
I'm going on a cyclone ride in uranium Saskatchewa
I'm sore after watching this.
I’m from Houston Texas I Wish they haven’t Close Six Flags astroworld Then I would of Ride it Why close it why? 😢
The guy’s laugh sounds like Woody from Toy Story
Travis Scott place
I hate Kieran Burke.
He is a piece of shit. Worst part is that he is now the CEO of another Park Corporation. No accountability for his actions.
Fuck the corporate latter.
Manatee Power Yeah, he is CEO of Premier Parks, which owns a few parks across the country.
I left half my McDonalds meal on my Cyclone seat but mostly in my undies because the ride literally scared the sh*t out of me. I haven't been the same ever since...LOL.
