Thrill Shot opens at Magic Mountain

Posted | Contributed by Karl DeAngelo

The first of many S&S pay attractions opened on Saturday at Magic Mountian. Currently the cost is $22 per rider. A video of the ride in action is available on the site.

The pull-through on X is progressing. Clearances look to be extremely tight on some sections of the ride, as can be seen in the photos.

Wow! That sounds alot better. Two shots for $15....cool.
I guess I will have to wait to ride the one at CP I dont care about the price only the THRILL!!!!!!!
Nice job S&S on a nother wicked thrillride!!!!!
I went on twice on Saturday for free. (Employee "benefits") I did the "Absolutely Insane" three times and the "High Dive" once. Pretty much it was all employees on the ride. There werent that many guests on it. It is a really thrilling ride but not worth $22 or $15.

That thing looks totally awesome, pleae come to PKD (though with their expierience with Hypersonic, I don't think PKD would do another S&S, what a piece of crap ride that stays closed more than it stays open)

I'd like a tall CCI out and back, and a grande nonfat Latte to go please!
"I'm not going on Deja Vu...it isn't safe"
Ok, I just hope it's open by December.

Mr. Toad said, "I rode Thrill Shot this morning. The price was lowered to $15 for two "shots." I tried the "Absolutely Insane" mode and "High Flyer," both of them awesome, High Flyer being my favorite of the two. Talk about an awesome rush!! You get up there a heck of a lot quicker than it looks. Airtime is amazing! It is a great ride and will be successful additions to compliment all three parks. The restraint system is just plain awesome too. The seat is similar to a small horse saddle with a small back on it to lean on. Other than that, it only has a chest harness with four pins that secure into the pod. Kind of hard to explain. Very open, very free, and suprisingly very comfortable too. I look forward riding again.

That doesn't sound very buisnessly sound. Why would a park charge $22 for one shot, and $15 for two shots? Does that make any sense? Unless, they don't offer the $22 price and only offer the $15 one, or they lowered the one shot price to under $15 (maybe 10?) to make SOME profit. So, Mr. Toad please explain why SFMM would do this and if any one of my speculations is true, because I'm going in two weeks and would like to know the details of this. Anyways, this certainly beats the $15 Cedar Point VeritGo!

Actually, I just heard that the price was raised from $15 to $18 dollars for TWO shots. The $22 dollar price is no more.
Damnit! Oh well, still beats CP's price :)!
