I think having the soundtrack on during the ride makes it less intimidating in a good way. Instead of scaring your heart out, it hypes you up, which is appreciated when you're about to be flipped over backwards then forwards then backwards again.
I’ll never forget when my dad took me (I was like 8) and this was one of the last rides we did that day. As I was about to step on, I saw a grown man crying as he was exiting the ride. I had never been more scared to ride a roller coaster in my entire life. Such a fun ride though
I LOVE THIS RIDE. I personally don’t think any ride is really scary after you’ve been on it, but I guess it can at first. The fear is turned into fun once you feel it
Well some of those are good. Magnum is to rough to enjoy. The other ones were good. Too bad if you ride the majority like anaconda at KD or vortex at KI or viper at MM or Demon at GAM or their mine trains you would think diffrently
Off ride it looks like it goes moderately slow but when you get on it, omg, nope. Loved it though, but since I’m a bit skinny my calf’s kept hitting onto the seat so they kinda hurt lol
The first time I went on this was back in 2011. I was 12, and really loved roller coasters. My entire family was visiting the park for the first time together. My dad took my younger brother somewhere else, and my mom, my older brother and I ventured on our own. The first ride we rode on was the Revolution. Prior to this, the only other Schwartzkopf coaster I've ever ridden was Montezooma's Revenge. After that, we went on Viper. Loved it. Then came X2. 1 hour and 20 minute wait, we get up to the loading bay. There's someone assigning riders to certain rows. We get to the attendant, and he says to us, "All right, guys. You're gonna be in rows 1 and 2." My 12-year old self got so excited because I was expecting to get a seat a few rows back due to the long line. During the ride, I was actually pretty calm, but my brother told me he was freaking out. Like screaming like a little girl freaking out. I don't remember what my mom said, but she enjoyed it too. Sadly, my dad didn't ride it, but he should've. Now, we live in Denver, and I currently work at Elitch Gardens as a catering supervisor, and the only Arrow coaster we have is the Sidewinder, a launched shuttle loop, which isn't always open due to not enough staff.
Dude I was seriously so freaked out to get on this ride but it was NOT BAD at all. If you’re worried about it, don’t be. The lift hill is the scariest part. Just don’t tense up too much and it’s really not bad
Been on 234 different coasters, that first drop is the favorite element on any coaster I've ever ridden. Only Velocicoaster's Mosasaurus Roll comes close.
for anyone watching this bc their about to go on X2 for the first time,,,, you feel like your gonna fly out of the seat the whole time but it happens to everyone and ur safe lol.
When I went on it first time, we had to wait about an hour and a half, but when we got the loading station, I was shocked to hear the ride attendant there tell us to go to rows 1 and 2. The ride is definitely worth the wait.
Love this ride, the first time you just have no clue what the heck just happened !!!!!! I tried the first and last seats, the seat that heads up first was the best !!!!!!!
Just rode this today and while the audio wasn’t working, it was still a fun ride! The only Arrow coaster that I legitimately enjoyed. Come at me haters. I will say they do need some smoothing on the turns, though!
@Arrow Dynamics Inc. I'm of the opinion that "best manufacturer" can't be one hated by a significant chunk of enthusiasts for pretty good reasons like shitty profiling, outdated ride experiences, cartoonishly inconsistent intensity (demonstrated in this video), and terrible restraints. of course nobody can take away your love for rusty arrow snoozefests and I think most of them should stay for a while
@Arrow Dynamics Inc. homie you were the goofball who said arrow is "hands down" the best manufacturer while I was the goofball who said you can enjoy arrow coasters if you want
@@hellacia8151 it was x at first, it got refurbished to be more reliable in 2008 and had a name chang to be x², I think you already knew this but alright.
Best is subjective, although after my incredible ride on it yesterday, I’m inclined to agree. If nothing else, it is THE MOST INSANE coaster in America.
Anonymous Dude Pretty old enough.😂And wow,I feel pretty embarrassed that a 10-year old is brave enough to go on it,but I'm not.😂(btw I'm scared of heights )
i felt like if i let go of the handles i was gonna fall off i was so lose the employee barely touched my restraints and i could jump out of my seat too
This should be #3 in my Top 10 Favorite Steel Coasters and my #1 favorite coaster of Six Flags Magic Mountain! I hadn't been on it yet nor been to SFMM yet. But I might go there in December along with Disneyland (the place I want to go to the MOST).
BryceFourn 2001 Trust me if ur a coaster junkie this is SOOOOOO much better than disney land. Nothin against Disney land, but i would actually like this place more, just cuz i loooovvvveeee coasters, and disney land doesn't have many
BryceFourn 2001 Oh and btw go to six flags weekdays in summer... the holiday in the park crap gets NUTS, like 2 hour lines ive heard... disneyland's the same, i have a cousin who has a decmber birthday and she said you dont get on anything... that said, at least its warm down there...
It banged my head but only at the end. anyways, THIS RIDE IS AWESOME #😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😄😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝
I🙏ing this Open Back Up by Mid-Late Sept. X2 Was 1 of the Rides CLOSED the Last time I visited, Hopefully the 2nd Time is a Charm. I've Never been on this Coaster, but Am Looking so foward to it. Last I heard, they are Closed due to an Injury to a Rider and also heats they are waiting on a part, so I hope they get it soon.
You should bring Harley Quinn Crazy Coaster as a Mack Spin Coaster to the park. But make it longer than time traveler. And a skyline skywarp coaster themed to The Joker. But customize it by putting 2 360 vertical loop's with the dive loop's.
@@tonyisreal446 I'm in the future as well. And this is what the raptor is going to be. ua-cam.com/video/QP1r8x1Kd7g/v-deo.html I'm telling you, this is Perfect! Not only this will be a world's first for this coaster, But the theme is perfect for the DC Universe Area doesn't have anything that is all about The Joker. But i also want to see a 360 loops on both tracks. Where the green track has it's loop after it goes through the immelman. (Go to 3:02), then the purple track has it's loop at the bottom of the first drop (Go to 4:36). Plus a few more inversions and a few changes.
I got a rare opportunity yesterday when I rode X2, The speakers were turned off and the Fire effect was broken, so I rode the coaster without the sound This is my favorite at magic mountain
I just love how the speakers cheekily say “gooooooing dooooown” as you drop, makes the ride so much funnier but so much scarier at the same time XD
It's a better usage of that sound clip than Rock n Roller Coaster and that had the involvement of the band that wrote it
I think having the soundtrack on during the ride makes it less intimidating in a good way. Instead of scaring your heart out, it hypes you up, which is appreciated when you're about to be flipped over backwards then forwards then backwards again.
I hope it has Music when I go omg

Why can't all of the rides at six flags have music? That would be rad if they did. Mortal kombat theme song on Tatsu would be 👌🏼!
Cat Fanatic OMG THAT WOULD SO FIT WITH TATSU OMFG BRILLIANT IDEA
Cat Fanatic omg tasty can have reptiles theme
I meant tatsu lol
Cat Fanatic Yeah right?!!! PLUS put three pair of flame throwers at the bottom of the pretzel loop and watch them shoot up as riders fly by!!
thesocial Chameleon would have been dope af
I LOVE THIS RIDE. I personally don’t think any ride is really scary after you’ve been on it, but I guess it can at first. The fear is turned into fun once you feel it
Yeah I cried on this the first time I went on it but I was 10
1:18 "We are high-- GOING DOOWWNN"
["WOAH" INTENSIFIES]
LOL
Hahaaaa made my day 😂😂😂
It's supposed to say, WE ARE HIGH UP!
David Vitrano yeah i was like what happened to the song?
"It had to be you" Magic Mountain, that put my favorite ride here! X2 FOR LIFE!
Well arrow dynamics chose this location so thanks arrow
Arrow stunk but this was one of their best coasters
Arrow did not stunk they made x2 Tennessee tornado locknes monster ninja magnum xl-200
Well some of those are good. Magnum is to rough to enjoy. The other ones were good. Too bad if you ride the majority like anaconda at KD or vortex at KI or viper at MM or Demon at GAM or their mine trains you would think diffrently

The drop is truly in a league of its own. Arguably one of the best drops in America.
I love it..
This one &Tatsu
Elias Martinez the only worth it
And Twisted Colossus

Best frist drop I've ever experienced. I will also say this ride is very smooth and comfortable for the level of thrill
Honestly, I didn’t really have that drop feeling/ stomach drop on the first drop. But the whole ride was so much fun and I had a blast
@@yoshibernstein6591 how intense is it? i wanna do it cuz i’m going in 2 weeks, but im terrified!

Make this vr on x2 so we can relive the flames and audio 😂👍

sickest coaster out. no joke. crazy face fwd drops, rotating seats, flames!! WTF. the best for sure.

Lucky. I was only able to ride once the day I went because the line was THREE HOURS LONG.
X I just rode it again last week and the line was 15 minutes too
the onboard audio on this ride really enhances the experience
I love “Entering Sandman” at the lift hill!
This has got to be the craziest roller coaster I've been on.
THIS RIDE WAS GOD DAMN AMAZING! RECOMMEND 100% 😩✋
this ride is freaking genius! cant wait for them to reopen
ths is one of my fav rides and also one of my fav songs.
seeing this before i go on tuesday kinda nervouse
do not be scared it is fun you will love it

Doesn’t feel like anything, at least in front seat.

best ride at the park without a doubt

The song that would have been perfect for this ride is Aerodynamic by Daft Punk
