    Viper is a testament to the excellence of Magic Mountain. It is a thrilling and fairly intense coaster that could easily be the showcase attraction at many parks. At Magic Mountain it is a 30+ year old third tier ride that is a good warmup or plan B ride when the park gets too crowded.

      Agree, this never gets a really long line, typically 10-20 minutes is the longest we've seen. The new Revolution is also close by, and while that gets a slightly longer line, they are both perfectly positioned not too far from the front of the park to ease the crowd on busier days.

      @alexdaley7616 Not at all. Of course it's far better if a coaster is smooth and re-ridable from the offset. This was, however, built in 1989 without the aid of computers and track technology we have today. Arrow coasters have never been the smoothest, you can however make the most out of them and even find them enjoyable once you get used to their little quirks.

    I haven't ridden this since the early 2000s, and I know these days compared to the crazy things coasters do this one is pretty tame by comparison, but god dammit I love this ride and layout. It was so mind blowing when it first came out, especially that first drop and high loop. I can't even begin to tell you the number of times I sketched this coaster out on paper, or built it in various video games like Disney's Coaster and RCT1/2. A true classic.

    • @XtremeCoasters

      @@XtremeCoasters I mostly ride them vicariously through videos these days and the way coasters have evolved in the last 10-15 years just blows my mind. Always seems like they are doing way crazier stuff now than the old school Arrow loopers I grew up with, good to hear Viper still packs a punch compared to the new kids on the block.
