Got to ride both once during my only visit to this park in 2020. La Vibora hurt my hands & El Diablo was basically a larger superloop (which I’ve done at multiple parks including my local Six Flags park Valleyfair)
La Vibora was the first roller coaster I ever rode as a kid. Loved it! I was at Holiday in the Park tonight and noticed pieces of the track missing so I looked up if it was being torn down. That’s so sad! This was like the defining ride to six flags for me.. the sound of it running when you’d park in the parking lot and walk towards the park. I am excited to see what they do though… it’s been a long time since they’ve put in a new roller coaster, so it’s about time!
Me and my wife rode both of these during Fright Fest when I saw the land survey marks on the ground. If you look at a satellite view of the park there’s this random picnic sight and old gas station in the parking lot. I told her they could build a coaster and expand it to the picnic area to free up space. Whatever it is, I’m excited. La Vibora was fun but being 34, definitely sore for a bit after 😂😂
You aren’t missing much, la vibora has been unbelievably uncomfortable the past like 10 years, so much so that my mom bruised her tailbone on one of the midcourse break runs back in like 2015
La Vibora was a coaster of my childhood, I was a kid of the 90's. La Vibora was a great coaster for kids to get into the coaster thrill. Though as a former employee at Ride Ops. at SFOT I understand why they need to get rid of it and revitalize Mexico Section. The coaster was down quite a bit when I worked there between 2005-2008. Honestly I am surprised it was not removed before, it was in question back then between the Ride Op employees. I am sure what ever replaces it will be a great addition to the park for thrill seekers and enthusiasts alike.
La vibora is a very old relocated attraction. It is a rough ride with low capacity. Probably at the end of its life anyway. As for El Diablo, these attractions have had issues.
Larson loops have a lot of downtime and mechanical issues so it makes sense why six flags wants to get rid of them. As it aligns with the changed they're making for their parks
Many people think these two rides suck. The loop is like an old traveling carnival ride that's been around for decades. They can replace it with something more modern, like rotary payphones.

Fair enough 👌 I respect those views!

Cannot wait for what's next!

It brought wonderful memories, but now it is definitely the right time to invest in the next generation of roller coaster technology

That's horrific to hear about. I can respect that completely!
I rode this ride countless times and I didn’t get hurt… but if it is getting removed then I will do something that I will regret
That's fair enough
La Vibora was a painful ride. Glad it is going.
I can respect that!
Glad there leaving for something big major coaster
Absolutely, a major coaster coming!

@@krisrodriguez5685 It's a historic rollercoaster that will be missed!
why is six flags tearing out these two perfectly fine rides. They seem to hate larson loops lately
