    Definitely needs a kiss from RMC. Like the Texas Giant, it was probably fun when it first opened up, but over the years became a fun beating.

    Just rode The Boss at Six Flags St. Louis yesterday...this coaster is VERY SIMILAR to the BOSS. It has the high banked turns but not overly banked and it has Gerstlauer trains which I LOVE for their ease of loading and unloading. SO WHAT that they have no padding on the seats...at least you're not screwing around with seatbelts which need to be adjusted for each individual rider. The Boss got lots of NEW WOOD over the winter and is running BETTER THAN EVER. Medusa wins for more airtime. .

  • @trainwreck3697

    This actually looks like a pretty good layout. With better non-shaky cars it would probably be fantastic.

  • @jukingeo

    Funny. Six Flags likes to give coasters the same name despite the fact they are totally different coasters. At Great Adventure in NJ, they have a coaster that (was) named Medusa, which is a steel floorless coaster. They have since changed the name of that to Bizarro. At Six Flags in Georgia they have a wooden coaster called Great American Scream Machine. Again at Great Adventure there was a steel looping coaster by the same name. That coaster was recently removed.

    It was Arrow that was bought by S&S. Some of CCI's engineers continued to work together as The Gravity Group, LLC, a company that has designed coasters such as Hades 360, The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, and many others.

    Screamscape says:
    Iron Medusa: Wild rumor time… Screamscape sources tell us that Medusa at SFM may be the next SF coaster to get the Iron Horse treatment. While the coaster really isn’t all that old, the old CCI coaster is in need of some heavy maintenance later this year anyway and SF is rumored to have contracted the job out to the Rocky Mountain Coasters crew who will work in some impressive new improvements to Medusa.

  • @Whatchamawhozit
    @Whatchamawhozit 9 років тому +1

    Tis a shame Six Flags doesn't properly maintain their wooden coasters and have to hire RMC to renovate them to make them usable again.
    I know woodies are costly, but comeone some TLC every year never hurt no one. All the money these parks pull in some average re-tracking onlyc osts about $500k to $1,000,000. for an entire ride (See Thunder Run at kentucy Kingdom) Too many woodies defunct in favor of an RMC steel Hybrid and that defeats the purpose.
    This thing looked like fun. I bet when it was new it was nice and smooth like most CCI woodies

    El accidente en Texas Giant fue después de que se anunciara el cierre de Medusa (entonces, no la quitarán por el accidente). El 29 de Agosto Six Flags anunciará nuevas atracciones para 2014 y ese día sabremos si Medusa será remodelada (como se rumora) o será remplazada por otra atracción.

  • @jameslang4797
    @jameslang4797 11 років тому

    Read my comment above about The Boss in St. Louis. With lots of new wood over the winter the thing is running like a brand new ride. I wonder if
    the Boss was modeled after Medusa....The Boss has the double-down first
    drop and the double helix near the end of the ride which are basically just additions to the already awesome layout that's used on Medusa. In my opinion,Twisted Twins is better than Thunder Run....again,EASY LOADING
    AND UNLOADING and a four train operation(2 on each side)

    The layout looks pretty fun but wow you can just tell how rough it is. When was this Medusa built. It only looks 10 years old give or take. Unless its older but due to lack of rain in Mehico the wood stays newer looking? Anyway would make a great topper and track or hybrid IMO
