So came back from Magic Mountain today and it was awesome! Rode all of the coasters, most more than twice. Any ways here are the pictures:

Blah, Superman. The ride was fun but, really not all that great. The line was very slow, but it was cool.:bored:

Now for the good stuff! Tatsu!
We rode it earlier on in the day and the line was about 5 minutes, but later
it broke down. I believe one of the items that allows the ride to completly go straight up, wasn't working properly.

But we rode it again later in the day.

For those of you who don't know, yes, Tatsu is spelled with a "S"

One of my favorite parts of the ride is flying so high over trees, and screaming all at the same time.:D

For those few of you that got bored of the awesomeness of Tatsu, here is the very mediocare, Viper.

A nice layout but inless you are tall enough to keep your head completly over the over the shoulder restraints, a very painful expierence.

Walking down I got a pic of the awesome coaster.

In an attempt to become entertained, we went on The Revolution.

A nice, but loud, drop I might add.

The very cool flip.

The best inversion I have ever been on, In my opinion.
Well I am feeling tired after this day so I shall post a long, lengthy, review of the day tommorow.

I love how lush the vegetation around the Revolution is!
It looks really appealing! As far as I know, you went the day Riddlers started working again. Thats lucky!

here is the very mediocare, Viper.


Bah, Viper is one of the great coasters of its time.

"Viper features the world's highest 360-degree loop—maxing out at 144 feet above ground."

"Viper still remains the tallest looping coaster in the world. 188ft."

Tatsu is cool, but the most intense coaster in the park hands down is Batman

[thetrooper]

Looks awesome
Is the white one the revolution?
I've never been to America.

I want to go on a good flying coaster as well...all I've been on is air at Alton Towers which is OK but not intense at all.

[RocknGuitar]

ahh.. I want to try out Tatsu! Viper is pretty painful...

Hope you had fun!

I went to SFMM too.

Yeah, Revolution is the white coaster.

I am going on a holiday to L.A as I am from UK. I hope to visit SFMM on a week-day, does anyone have any suggestions on which rides i should hit first and does anyone have information on how big the queue times can get? Help would very much be appreciated!

Griffon? Alpengeist? And i'm sure there must be more, thats just one other park, and you claim that is the park where your best rollercoaster was!
