U guys were very lucky, this park is local to me as I live in DC, and whenever I go theres always a massive amount of ppl in line waiting for this, my favorite ride in the park
Y'know, it's easy to hate on a ride after watching a POV. But this coaster provides a forceful first drop, awesome low to the ground speed, both floater and ejector air. That second hill after the drop is insane airtime that 95% of coasters wish they had. Yeah, the straight sections and the helices aren't inspired or anything, but if you don't dwell on them, and just enjoy the ride, this thing still kicks ass 18 years later.
100% my feelings this is the most underrated coaster I've ever been on. It really is awesome. Great drops , it's very smooth and fast. Some great airtime hills and it's long enough for your times worth standing in line. I always have so much fun on this and I never want to get off . I just want to stay on and keep riding ! Such an awesome sensation !!!!
@@chickpeagaming100 It probably has to be because of the accident where a legless Veteran fell out of the ride. But then again, it was the parks fault for allowing him on
This is probably my favorite non looping coaster. The video doesn't do it justice. The view as you go up is awesome, it's really fast, and those humps at the end are great! And if you go Monday or Tuesday the park is virtually empty and you can ride multiple times without getting off, how cool is that.
Dude your view for the Superman is much worse than the one a Darien lake we go over a lake Joseph Barnett. But you are right it doesn’t break down and it is decent too
Same here (on it being my first; not sure my age at the time). I was scared to go on my first coaster, and my friend said I should start with this one because "it's easy and it doesn't have any loops". As we were being hauled up to the top of the first drop, already locked in, he said "actually I was just kidding, this is probably the scariest one in the whole park". Good memories.
Went here with my school two days ago and the Superman happened to be my second ever roller coaster. My first one was Roar (which I rode prior to this). I was extremely scared to ride this but once you're going down that first drop, it's amazing. So much adrenaline and dopamine kicked into your system. The second time I rode it (that day), I started to black out around the first helix so beware. But overall, this got me over my fear of coasters. And no, it does not make you feel sick in any way. Can't wait to go back
This ride is so smooth and is really a good way to end the day. I went on the last ride for the whole day on this one. Honestly, if you want a thrilling and easy going ride this is the one for you.
I remember almost blacking out by the end of the first turns the first time I rode this, that first drop kicks it up the last little bit after you take ages to get to the top, man a simple but great ride!
so many memories on this ride. When I was younger and I went with my best friend my mom made me promise not to ride the superman while I was there, but of course I did. I told her a few years later that I had ridden it and she actually wasn’t mad at all and said she’s sure I had fun!! Also went there with my youth group and I rode with my youth pastor and it was just really awesome!
Thankyou for the video. My friend hasnt been allowed on roller coasters since her accident, back conditions. Just took her for a virtual ride thanks to your video and she loved it. Thanks again. 😊
I loved this ride. The only thing I didn’t like were the carts which were really low (barely even reached the elbows) and the ONLY bar you could REALLY hold on to was in the seat in front of you. It didn’t feel very secure and I was sat with a stranger and by the time we got to the top and went down we had to hold on to each other because we didn’t know where else to hold on from that didn’t require us to bend over and reach for the bar in front. It was quite hilarious lol
Stacy Bilicki hi I’m late but I’m going on this ride tomorrow and I was wondering if you could maybe tell me how it is? I have motion sickness and I was just thinking maybe if I asked it will help some...thanks!!
That was one of my Favorite Rides! I really didn't expect to enjoy it, or know much about it before I rode it. It was great, the Smooth Fast ride, with the 360° SUPERMAN 🦸♂️ spins and the huge Air on the hills! 😎
So wrong. While it may look boring, the first drop and turn into hill is amazing. I go on about a 100 coasters a year. This one is up there. Front seat is an amazing ride. It's a fun coaster.
I remember the one in NY having a two speed lift hill: As soon as the whole train was on the slope, a higher speed kicked in. And it's weird seeing this coaster go right when I'm expecting left...
This is not a mirror image of bizarro/ride of steel in New England, as many people claim. This coaster is missing so many of the hills that make that ride great.
gojewla FYI - What they are saying is that it is a mirror image of the Ride Of Steel coaster at Darien Lake in Upstate New York, not Bizarro/Superman Ride Of Steel at Six Flags New England.
At least this Superman in Maryland is great for leaving one thing that SHOULD be left behind: A rider ejection so horrible it almost DESTROYED my roller coaster interest before it started, so Bizarro SFNE is my first Drachen Fire Award winner.
This ride is the only reason to go to this six flags anymore. Every other ride sucks and it's the dirtiest park I've ever been too. I miss when this used to be wild world.
When I was on this ride a few months ago, I went on this ride right before the park closed, and the funniest thing happened on the re-ride we were able to have. At the turn at the bottom of the first drop, a man reached out and got a hand full of grass! We were all laughing our asses off afterwords.
All these people complaining here have never been on it before. Those airtime hills are AMAZING both floater and ejector, and the helix's provide good G's. I have to admit it that the long stretch or straight track (@ 2:01 ) is very pointless but the rest of the ride is great, very underrated. This coaster is the definition of don't judge a book by it's cover.
I rode this one during COVID and there was still a line to go to it believe it or not. It was a blast, never been that scared out of my seat in my life.
@@jakerboss3534 Do you even pay attention to when comments were written? More than 4 years ago. He wrote the comment before Helix at Liseberg was even announced.
steel vengeance? maverick? i305? any bnm coaster? tmnt shellraiser? twisted timbers? theres literally plenty of coasters that have way better drops then this -_-

@@britneycat7801 You know how coasters have the initial big dip at the beginning that go almost straight down, followed by some other dips that are pretty simple? Well, as I remember this ride, (It was over 20 years ago that I have rode it.), it has more nearly straight down dips that you'll arrive at at full speed. I wouldn't ride in the back car. I hope you enjoy it if you ride it. Sorry for my late reply. Have fun! Let me know how it was!
They absolutely could've. Arrow did a better job than this, and they were pretty much the first. Not to mention this park has the thing B&M revamped and gets all the credit for. They made a way better flying coaster, this one in Six Flags America being called Batwing. Way better than those mediocre superman ultimate flights everywhere (and clones of it without being called superman) and just as if not better than Tatsu and Manta.
I've been on the one at Darien Lake quite a few years back and heard that the only difference between this and the one there is that they are mirrored... Yet, why does this one still carry the "Superman" logo when that one had it removed - Especially when they are both SF parks?
@@britneycat7801 Someone respond to you so late but it’s not that bad but after this ride your fear of roller coasters should go away or at least mines did amazing ride I’m going back this Sunday
5 hills. more airtime moments than that as well, about 8. i can agree it has a lot of wasted potential, but you have to ride it before you judge it. (unless you already have) but it is actually a great ride. out of the 143 coasters i have ridden it is in the top 30 for me
Lemme correct my silly 5 year old comment and say that while it doesn't have the best layout on paper it's still a lot of fun...yeah the helixes aren't the best elements but this ride's excellent airtime compensate for that. It's a top 25 coaster for me out of 337 credits rn. EDIT: Now #19 out of 350 credits.
This video looks deceptively gentle. Bet the hills are really intense and that first drop looks like a beast. Easy to think it looks boring from a youtube clip but I think it would be awesome in its own way.
I went to this six flags the last day of the 8th grade trip, and all my friends rode this except for me💀 I rode a bunch of other roller coasters but I just could not handle the drop on the superman and didn't wanna push myself to do it when I knew I didnt want to
I had so much fun riding this a few times in a row and the best part was the lines were super short cuz it was in the evening. Ladies and men🤣🤣🤣🤣secure your wig before riding 🤣🤣🤣
Bridget Armstrong hi I’m late but I’m going on this ride tomorrow and I was wondering if you could maybe tell me how it is? I have motion sickness and I was just thinking maybe if I asked it will help some...thanks!!
Yes, I've been on the Darien Lake one. It's the scarriest coaster I've been on but my experience is therwise limited to Canada's Wonderland in nearby Toronto. I do believe this coaster may have caused and cost a lot of liabilities and then they just renamed the ride. I would love tto know more about that side of things; it makess the ride even scarier.
Most importantly it is not fun like Griffon at all! this ride unfortunately is missing almost any elements which makes ride fun, its only tall, but individual perform of elemets is sadly boring, not satisfied after ten rides
i love the superman rides but my favorite is the six flags darien lake one, very fun and keeps the rising and dropping speeds very good!! 10/10 love darien lake!!
I just saw a video of my science teacher twerking at a party that all the teachers from my school we're invited to. I watched this to forget about him. Lol
A random Person no it’s not, the one at New England has a spaghetti bowl section full of banked turns and camelbacks, that section makes the ride much better than this
Thank you for sharing, Omg, why no one is screaming 😱, you Gotta see me yesterday, I was in six flags yesterday with my family, there was a thunderstorm 4:45 and they closed the games, I was so sad because we spend the time in the water park and we couldn't play the games, when we went outside to leave the weather changed dramatically and the sun got back again so we got back it was 5:30 I guess, I rode the superman with my 13 years old daughter, I spend the whole time shouting and closed my eyes. My daughter was trying to check me while we are on the ride. Now my neck I can't feel it. It's fun but everytime I ride it as if it's the first time. I didn't go to six flags since 4 years I guess. Am so proud of her she is strong, since she was little girl she rode such rides then she tried all of them with her dad except the high swing because of the long line. Her dad was telling me she was sitting as if she is in the class looking at me and I was looking at her 😁 on the wooden roller coaster.
This was my son's favorite ride when he was a teenager. He is no longer with us and I come here to watch this video when I'm missing him.
Im so sorry
For real
He had excellent taste in coasters! I'm sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry for your loss 💔. That must be tough

Designer: “So how many straight pieces do you want to use?”
Six Flags: *Yes*
bruh i cant stop laughing
Lol!
Ok, woofle
Dang kids.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
When I went, the park was so empty, my brother and I went on this ride continuously for 45 mins only getting off to change seats, no line.
That's weird I live really close to this park and every time I go here its atlest a 45 min wait
I’ve done that at six flags great America
I did that with Tatsu at Six Flags Magic Mountain. Went on it at least 5-6 times before guests showed up
I live 30 minutes away and it's always like that. Never a line.

Ehh I liked it, gave me that slight drop feel I was craving
I think the whole ride is pointless
This is actually one of the few roller coasters where the POV convinced me all is well and this would be an ok thing to ride 😂
wasn’t it then? lol
It was easy
I wish this ride played the Superman theme through out the entire time that would’ve been cool.
This actually was my first ever rollercoaster as a child at 8 years old. Say what you want but this holds a special place in my heart.

This thing sucks. Ride better coasters
I rode this with my cousin a year ago. It was so fun.
I live 5 minutes from that amusement park and that ride is the most fun you’re ever gonna have around here
They just need to add a few inversions, corkscrews, and maybe a loop or two and this ride would be great.
Maybe but that would be WEIRD, cause inversions on intamin megas/hypers/gigas are totally uncommon/inexistent
I was just saying that to myself a loop or two because that first drop is insane some coaster don’t even have the second drop
GP alert, at least this one knows about inversions
Aware 76 what kind of hyper coaster has an inversion
You don't put corkscrews or loops on B&M hypercoasters
I love that the layout looks like how his flight is drawn in the comics. Big sweeping corkscrews and sudden up-turns.
There are no corkscrews on Superman Ride of Steel.
This was my favorite ride that first drop is crazy! I'm gonna make a point to go on that ride at least one more time and I can't wait ☺😊

@@britneycat7801 Someone respond to you so late but it’s not that bad but after this ride your fear of roller coasters should go away or at least mines did amazing ride I’m going back this Sunday
Wow our six flags changed a lot after all theses years like I don’t see the joker jinx’s or the Bat wing lol
Big waste of money, they built a hyper coaster that goes in two big helixes and only has 4 air time hills. Big waste.
Unfortunately I have to agree. It's layout is so tame.
5 hills. more airtime moments than that as well, about 8. i can agree it has a lot of wasted potential, but you have to ride it before you judge it. (unless you already have) but it is actually a great ride. out of the 143 coasters i have ridden it is in the top 30 for me
Lemme correct my silly 5 year old comment and say that while it doesn't have the best layout on paper it's still a lot of fun...yeah the helixes aren't the best elements but this ride's excellent airtime compensate for that.
It's a top 25 coaster for me out of 337 credits rn.
EDIT: Now #19 out of 350 credits.
This video looks deceptively gentle. Bet the hills are really intense and that first drop looks like a beast. Easy to think it looks boring from a youtube clip but I think it would be awesome in its own way.
It takes a whole minute to get up😩
Just went on it today and it was the best roller coaster I've ever ridden
One of those times it is safe to say u should have gotten a B&M instead of intamin or u could have gotten a RMC
RMC wasn't around.... Neither was B&M, I believe.
This ride is awesome ! 😎
I went to this six flags the last day of the 8th grade trip, and all my friends rode this except for me💀 I rode a bunch of other roller coasters but I just could not handle the drop on the superman and didn't wanna push myself to do it when I knew I didnt want to
The superman ride is so darn good I love it
Does this LOOK scarier than it actually is? I'm going to Six Flags in 2 weeks and I'm terrified XD
Molliiano it’s scarier
It actually look much tamer than it actually is
Did there used to be a lake under the helixes? Just wondering why the track is straight.
I rode this ride and I almost peed my pants on that drop
Hey Coasterforce, do you like the Ride of Steel here or at Darien Lake more?
The second i saw how tall it was i wouldve died lmao
Yeah i went on this and cried it felt like i was gonna fly out bc how tall it was
what was the watermark? what did you say just before the first drop? just curious. thanks in advance.
Intimidator 305 is still better than this
No shit
WHAT UP? This ride also opened up in 2000, 10 years before Intimidator.
WHAT UP? I LOVE INTIMIDATOR 305
WHAT UP? No der
WHAT UP? Definitely better
For the least popular Park, out of all the Sox Flags parks, this is still a solid right I think. That first drop and hill are pretty awesome.
I had so much fun riding this a few times in a row and the best part was the lines were super short cuz it was in the evening. Ladies and men🤣🤣🤣🤣secure your wig before riding 🤣🤣🤣
Bridget Armstrong hi I’m late but I’m going on this ride tomorrow and I was wondering if you could maybe tell me how it is? I have motion sickness and I was just thinking maybe if I asked it will help some...thanks!!
I live in new york and ive been to darien lake and this ride is actually fun, hands down bets coaster ive been on
The one at Darien lake is better, maybe because it's the original, or because it feels faster, or because it over the lake or all 3.
Josh INLO I just went to Darien lake and I actually liked the layout a lot
Josh INLO that is Darien lake it use to be in Six Flags till they went bankrupt and had to sell it
Darien Lake is my home park! I just rode Ride of Steel yesterday! Darien’s Ride of Steel is slightly taller and the lift is faster.
Sherly Joseph six flags bought back Darien Lake just recently
I would never go on the Superman at Darien Lake. Too many things go wrong on it. I’ve heard from way too many people the restraints malfunction.
Yes, I've been on the Darien Lake one. It's the scarriest coaster I've been on but my experience is therwise limited to Canada's Wonderland in nearby Toronto. I do believe this coaster may have caused and cost a lot of liabilities and then they just renamed the ride. I would love tto know more about that side of things; it makess the ride even scarier.
Can someone tell me if this is scarier than the Griffon on busch gardens?
Its not
Madii Bellows
Most importantly it is not fun like Griffon at all! this ride unfortunately is missing almost any elements which makes ride fun, its only tall, but individual perform of elemets is sadly boring, not satisfied after ten rides
Conor Johnson Yup, thats right. It fits in park as a check in list. But its in some way whole mood in park this way. Sad..
At first u think is scary but its not
i love the superman rides but my favorite is the six flags darien lake one, very fun and keeps the rising and dropping speeds very good!! 10/10 love darien lake!!
They're clones, but Superman Ride of Steel doesn't have terrain or water.
I just saw a video of my science teacher twerking at a party that all the teachers from my school we're invited to. I watched this to forget about him. Lol
Isn’t six flags called “Six Flags Great America” in Gurnee Illinois, north of Chicago?
idk why people are bashing this ride? smh it's literally better than the Superman at magic mountain.
Lizzie rods that’s not hard to do, also Mako and Superman: Ride of Steel at Six Flags New England are both superior 200+ feet coasters
Holy Water! Ok sorry to be nitpicky but it’s just Superman the ride at six flags New England.
A random Person no it’s not, the one at New England has a spaghetti bowl section full of banked turns and camelbacks, that section makes the ride much better than this
Holy Water! Yeah and it’s called Superman the ride even though I personally liked the bizzaro theming better.
A random Person Bizarro had an awesome soundtrack
omg I knew it was from Maryland I live there I went to six flags there a million Times loo
Thank you for sharing, Omg, why no one is screaming 😱, you Gotta see me yesterday, I was in six flags yesterday with my family, there was a thunderstorm 4:45 and they closed the games, I was so sad because we spend the time in the water park and we couldn't play the games, when we went outside to leave the weather changed dramatically and the sun got back again so we got back it was 5:30 I guess, I rode the superman with my 13 years old daughter, I spend the whole time shouting and closed my eyes. My daughter was trying to check me while we are on the ride. Now my neck I can't feel it. It's fun but everytime I ride it as if it's the first time. I didn't go to six flags since 4 years I guess.
Am so proud of her she is strong, since she was little girl she rode such rides then she tried all of them with her dad except the high swing because of the long line.
Her dad was telling me she was sitting as if she is in the class looking at me and I was looking at her 😁 on the wooden roller coaster.
Till this day I can't believe I want on this if it weren't for those goggles I would've fainted
