I will always been shocked at how smooth viper was. It was great when I rode as a kid in 2005 and it was just as great as an adult in 2019. Vortex felt like it was going to snap my neck but this thing is so smooth even though its much taller and faster I will never understand it. Its even smoother than Magnum.
Dont know if anyone gives a damn but if you're bored like me atm then you can watch all the latest movies on InstaFlixxer. Have been binge watching with my gf for the last couple of weeks xD
@@MrCrash-hz8xy I hope not. This ride is legendary and it's the very last Arrow mega looper out there. I mean it's already sad enough that a lot of classic Arrow looper's are slowly disappearing.
Johan Eights yeah I know the ride is definitely legendary. It would be hard to see it go. Yeah a lot of arrow loopers don’t exist anymore. I’m glad steel phantom was saved even tho the inversions were removed
It’s really a shame not many Arrow looping coasters like this one exist. I suppose they’ll keep this one running for as long as they can before the time may be right to replace it with something new. It’ll be sad to see it go, but sadly it is what it is. I remember back in 2010 when I heard of the removal of Great American Scream Machine from Great Adventure. I was deeply saddened because I loved it so much after my first, and sadly, only ride on it earlier that year in late June, weeks prior to its permanent closure. I hoped the replacement would be something fun and new but instead they replaced it with a B&M Stand Up coaster named Green Lantern (originally Chang before they relocated it from Kentucky Kingdom). Not that I hate Green Lantern or anything, it’s just that the Stand Up coaster model is just unpopular nowadays. I suppose in an alternate timeline Six Flags would’ve waited a few more years before they could close GASM and replace it with a Wing Coaster since it was a new B&M coaster model at the time Green Lantern had opened in its new home. Then again it isn’t really too late for them to do so. They could still relocate Green lantern to a different park and have it converted to a floorless coaster as well (Seeing as how Great Adventure already has one named Bizarro), and maybe build a B&M wing coaster at some point in the future.
If you want them to wreck this ride and replace it with a new coaster then you are not a coaster enthusist. Coaster enthusiasts want historic rides to be preserved for future generations. This park has tons of coasters this one is unique like x2 the rest are just copies of other rides from other parks. Sure this was once a copy but now it's the only one standing. Six flags really should sell it to somebody instead of scrapping it if they do destroy it.
@@airtimethrillsrawfootage9558 I know they won't move it. But the thing is if you own a amusment park you should have a obligation to preserve historical rides. At least offer the ride for sale. I guarantee if they listed vortex online for sale it would have been purchased by another smaller park. Keep in mind even though it's old in some country's that coaster would be the greatest in the entire country. I just hate how corporate parks have no respect for the rides that make them the money. Wicked twister is a perfectly functional ride and cedar point will scap it because theybdont care. They didn't care about letting people go to geauga lake one last time they just closed it and told us all to screw off. They destroyed a entire city over that. The entire area where geauga lake use to be is a run down hell hole now because of that. They bought that park to close it. And six flags has done the same but with many more parks. Six flags astro world, New Orleans, Kentucky kingdom, amusment park corporations are a plague on the coaster community they buy up all the family parks then pump so much money into them that any new parks couldn't compete. They spoil the gp with new massive rides and make it impossible for small parks to survive. Why do you think we lost so many amusment parks since the 70s big chains made a climate where they couldn't survive. Then enthusiasts bash on classic rides for being rough or not fun and the rides they mocked are forever known as "garbage rides" and that is a shame.
*Last LEGENDARY ARROW MEGA-LOOPER STILL standin' in ALL IT'S GLORY!!!!*
*LOOOOOONG LIVE THE MIGHTY MIGHTY*
*VIIIIIIIIPERRRRR!!!!!!!*
Yay Viper
They really take care of this ride unlike kings island did vortex. This was much smoother
That is the difference between Six Flags, & Cedar Fair parks. Six Flags takes care of their old timer rides.
They better take care of it it's the last one
Thank you Chris for providing this for content creators.
We’re so lucky to have footage that is free to use that won’t get us striked!
Honestly this is better than full throttle imp
A Pig if you’re a tall person
I’m only 5”8 and I still enjoyed it
I wouldn’t go that far lol
I mean it’s just that full throttle is way to short and lacking in intensity or a good drop
I think it's better than most other rides in the park.
VIPER needs new trains. I love the Vekoma trains with the soft vest. This would make this coast killer again!
You're the best Chris! As a new theme park channel, this is a blessing!! :)
I remember when Viper first opened. Local radio DJs Mark & Brian took a ride on it while on the air. They gave a play by play of the experience.

💚I Love You Viper💚
Thanks so much Chris!
They trim brake this thing so hard!!
They should have gave it a refresh and paint for 30th anniversary

@Ramon Jason Yup, been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself =)
I liked when Viper dominated the skyline. Then they planted X right in front of it ruining the view
I hope MM keeps this ride standing till I get the credit!
This ride is in need of a serious repaint.
Not sure if that will ever happen it’s a very old ride and rumors saying they may remove it

I wish Viper would get new trains without those painful otsr
Don't we all.
But Six Flags doesn't care about us peasants
I wanna ride this so bad lol I love arrow coasters

I doubt it would be moved at this point. I hope they keep it around because it's one of their better rides
