CoasterKrazy Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Since I was coming out to California for the Rose Bowl game. I had to check out Magic Mountain as I've been dying to see what it's all about. My day started out at about 1:30. First thing I noticed was that the park was extremely crowded. My first ride of the day was Full Throttle in be second to last row. It was close to an hour wait and it was a decent ride just very short. I walked around the park for alittle bit after and noticed lines were very long for all the rides and half the rides were closed. So I decided to head over to X2. This was one ride I looked forward to riding. It was almost a three hour wait and had a bunch of break downs which the ride attendent said happens all the time it's just normal. Before you ride they have a ride attendant who directs you to a locker in the station and you can't bring any lose articles on the ride. You can't even bring the souvineer cup with you. But it was only a dollar but very strange to see this in the station. I got the front row and it was a different experience from any rollercoaster I've ridden. It was a pretty decent ride but has alot of head banging. After X2 which took up my whole day I went to Twisted Colossus. This was my first RMC experience and it was awesome. I rode in the forth row and it was a very smooth and thrilling product they create. I was highly impressed. After that I decide to call it a night. The park was way to crowded the food lines were hours long the ride lines were just as bad. I wish I had more time to experience this park. They also had their Holiday in the park and from what I saw it was okay. They had alot of blank areas in their park since the whole thing is open. I also didn't like the park layout for alot of the rides as it was confusing to get to them. I ran into alot of dead ends and got lost quick. In the end it was nice to visit a different park other then Great Adventure. Full Throttle 1x X2 1x Twisted Colossus 1x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggo77 Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Thanks for sharing. I'll be going to SFMM for my first time this coming weekend. I was able to extend a business trip so I'm really looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC98 Posted January 2, 2017 Report Share Posted January 2, 2017 Jealous that you're gonna be at the Rose Bowl haha. I'm a freshman at Penn State, I'll be rooting them on from home! Anyway nice report, I've never gotten to go to Magic Mountain but I'd like to try it sometime since they have so many coasters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatansHockey Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 I've never gotten one before but I'm definitely doing the highest level of flash pass whenever I finally make it out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterKrazy Posted January 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 I definitely regret not getting one for that day. It was needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pashacar Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 ^As with any park, crowds depend on the day you go. The last time I was there we had no trouble riding everything without any Flash Pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
