I have been to the site numerous times, but I still feel that there is something more I should know to be more well prepared for my trip.
I am sure you all have been there before, so I am asking what are the better rides (more worth the wait). I am trying to get some help on how to have the best possible day I can on my most likely only trip ever to Magic Mountain.
Does anyone know what days X is usually open. I want to know because that it what I want to ride the most. I called the park, they said I have to cal the day I am going to the park to find out if it will be running or not, so that didnt help any. The lady was just trying to get me off the phone, I think she was in a hurry.
I just want any tips/help I can get about the park
Please help me.
Skip: All other rides
And I was nice about it, too.
Get there any hour prior to opening. (9 a.m.) as soon as you get into the park, head straight to X (it will PROBABLY be open within 30-45 minutes, and you want to get on it first thing)... within 20 minutes, the line can become 2-4 hours long!
To get to X, it is a little confusing. When you get into the park, go through the main entrance section, head towards Viper, and turn RIGHT to go on the bridge towards X. (You have to do a 270 degree circle to get there ;))
Ride as close to the front as possible, inside seat.
Dejavu will be closed regardless of the day you visit (the train's metal structure is sitting beside Psyclone.)
You want to get on S:TE (But there is a high probability that it is not open.)
Here are other Must Rides:
Goliath: Back seat
Riddler's Revenge: Back (or Front)
Collosus: Back (hopefully you will be able to ride the side that is going backwards.)
Scream: Front
(If you have already ridden a Batman: the Ride clone, don't worry about it if the lines are long.)
Ninja: (front)
Revolution: Front
Viper: Doesn't really matter.
Hope this helped! Sorry most people are rude on this site.
As for rides to skip/must ride, my choices are like this:
Revolution-Must skip. I found this painful and boring.
Viper-Big ol' Arrow looper. A decent ride. Ride if line is short.
Batman-Love this, line is usually quick. But if you've been on a bunch of Batman's, it's skipable.
Superman-This is often plaugued with 1 car operation, and/or slow lines... You can never tell how the line is until you're in it... And since I've found the ride only moderately interesting, I usually opt for skipping this one.
Ninja-This is a surpringly 'fun' little ride. Front, of course, for best view. Not super scary, but good for a bunch of giggles.
Goliath-A very cool ride, do this for sure.
Colossus-The definition of skipable.
Riddler's-Ok ride, but not amazing.
X-ride this all day long
Sorry, can't help you the opening time... Why not give them a call?
Have fun!
Darn I was really looking forword to riding Deja Vu, why did they do that to it, I thought it was running but I do not know too much about the ride.
If you had the choice to go would you choose saturday or monday?
Thx to all that replied (exception to Apollo Andy, and Black7)
& thx to all that are going to reply.
I went on a Saturday back in November, and it was awful. Goliath packed on a 4-hour line all day (stupid one-train operation!)
S:TE, Dejavu, Revolution, and Flashback were all closed. (Not too good)
If X isn't open on a Monday, it's worth it, because you will get to ride sooo much more stuff than you would on a Saturday.
My favs are as follows:
X, Goliath, Scream, Riddler's Revenge, Collosus (backwards), Ninja, and Viper. (those are the only coasters I got to ride.)
I would opt to ride Revolution just because it was the first "modern" looping roller coaster. (and it was on National Lampoon's Vacation ;))
