Having worked at Fiesta Texas a handful of years ago, we took great pride in our work and always strove to provide the best service possible. I can’t say I always see that quality in other Six Flags parks when I visit them.

[@iratdaniel]

no fr... as my home park, every time i go there the opperations are usually good, the atmeosphere is always great, the setting/scenary, everything. the only complaint i had was then IRat was running 1 train ops but i dont thing that will happen anymore as they got a new train anyway, i completly agree with you, and we must all be happy that jeffery siebert controlls the park right now. only think i would like is for him to remove pandemonium for either a park expandtion or a new roller coaster (as pandemonium has a lot of emptey land behind it) -IRatDaniel

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

Iron rattler one train ops? That's unlike fiesta texas

[@iratdaniel]

@@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od it was when they needed to do maintenance on trains I believe in spring or something. But like I said, they have a new train now so let’s just hope that we don’t have 1 train ops ever again (as im saying this I realised that my last visit it was 1 train ops to begin the day)

[@CanobieCoaster]

Good to hear!

[@railsrust]

It was a problem for the park for a while. It would get to certain times of the year and Iron would need to take one train off for work. A third train was bought last year so that there would always be at least two trains available. The park even bought an extra train for Cliffhanger from day one for this very reason. Even Boomerang has two trains now! I think Jeffrey Siebert wants to have extra trains for as many of the rides as possible to minimize downtime.

Makes me feel blessed knowing fiesta Texas is only an hour away. It really doesn’t feel like a six flags park

Fiesta Texas and Jeff Seibert are sooooooooooooo massively overrated. The "must wear your shoes including flip flops on ALL coasters including all the B&Ms" nazi policy alone brings Fiesta Texas down 3 tiers.

It’s actually a very beautiful park with how the rides are placed

[@JJJJ-he8bz]

If Magic Mountain has everything running it’s the best park because it feels like there’s to much to do at times. I was fortunate to get it with 19 out of the 20 coasters running for 5 days with multiple train ops. Only bad thing it was very busy and I had to buy flash pass.

[@breadonyourbed3761]

When i went everything was running 1 train (apart from Twisted Colossus and West Coast Racers) and operations were horrible regardless

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

But magic mountain never has everything running so sadly it will continue to be my 3rd favorite park in the chain after great America and fiesta texas

Growing up in Texas, I've been to Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Fiesta Texas and before it closed, Six Flags Astroworld in Houston. When I was in the military stationed out west, I went to Six Flags Elitch Gardens in Denver when it was still part of the Six Flags family, and Six Flags Magic Mountain.

[@CanobieCoaster]

Nice! Still need to visit Elitch.

[@DavedSitt]

Great adventures in NJ is my favorite one by far. The Kingsda Ka is unmatched! I went there for Passover break this week, the line was surprisingly empty, I got to ride it three times in a row without having to get up or unbuckle! I find the park to be run really well overall.

Nice!

[@MrBucketlist]

This was a fantastic video!

[@CanobieCoaster]

Thank you!

[@ColeYote]

Feel like La Ronde could be a big winner from the Cedar Fair merger. It'll probably mean better ops, and a neglected park in a big market without any nearby competitors sounds ripe for investment.

[@CanobieCoaster]

I hope it helps them. The park has so much potential.

[@AndrewRidestheWorld]

Nice list! I enjoy hanging out with you at Magic Mountain when you visit the West Coast. I felt you were very fair in your assessment of it. Despite its flaws, it’s still got the line up and the natural topography to take advantage of.

It really is an amazing park and if they ever get strong ops through and through, they could move higher.

ouch a #5 for Six flags Great Am! personally i think its the best or top 3, but 5 makes me scratch my head lol! i know all have our own opinions!

[@CanobieCoaster]

It almost got the 4 spot, but it couldn't beat the top 3.

[@Galarticuno]

It hurts cause I love Great Am, but it’s kind of fair. Somethings were greatly overlooked, both positively and negatively. Our line up of coasters and water rides as well as our operations are glossed over kind of quickly, despite them being pretty outstanding. We actually got one of, if not the highest ranking amongst Six Flags park designated by a ranking given to us via corporate. The flat rides are kind of not that great, fair, but that’s the least of the problems. Our kids areas need some refurbishment, Eagle needs to eventually be retracked as management rarely lets it dual due to the failing integrity and age of the ride, and a lot of areas in the park sit vacant. Buccaneer Battle is still up despite its operation ceasing years ago, the area where Sky Trail used to sit is still vacant other than for Fright Fest display usage, and we recently took out Hangover, due to reasonable issues, but its lot now sits relatively empty. Sky Striker will be the first new ride we have gotten since Maxx Force in 2019 and we had to take out two other rides to facilitate it. To end on a more positive note, our areas are reasonably themed, our ride lineup is sparse, our water rides actually get you wet, and our operations are amazing. We also deserve brownie points for having a roller coaster with a theme song, having once owned the first ever BnM and first BnM invert/Batman clone, helping BnM become as well known as it is today, being the park that granted usage of Looney Tunes characters to the rest of the chain, and finally, Terror Twister II.

Six Flags Over Texas is my home park, so we still go there all the time, but you are so right about Fiesta! I was so impressed with the theming on Dr. Diabolical and the smoothness of the ride itself. I also loved the theming on several other rides, and I thought the Gully Washer was fantastic with beautiful scenery!

Fiesta is the cream of the crop from the chain. Their theming is above the other parks.

As having lived in Austin Texas and Chicago, this list makes me happy. Fiesta Texas definitely deserves the number 1 spot, but SF Mexico in front of SF Great America? I've been to Mexico and I think it's a top 5 park, but Great America is far more superior.

I loved Mexico's atmosphere and fast ops (plus their top two).

[@LuigiOdysseyREAL]

New England is my nearest Six Flags! It was called Riverside Park in my mom’s day, and Superman was known as Bizarro for a number of years, being purple instead of red. The oldest coaster in the park is Thunderbolt, which I personally love, also being the second oldest coaster at any Six Flags. The first oldest coaster being The Wild One, which is actually from - get this - Paragon Park in Massachusetts! The 2 oldest SF coasters are from silly old Mass. It’s not much of a SF location in comparison, but when it and Canobie Lake are your only 2 main options, it’s pretty darn memorable and almost homey.

Six Flags New England has an amazing top 2.

I am happy to say, though, that I will be returning to the park this June, and I am really looking forward to giving it some redemption.

[@elitheyoutubeguy]

Only been to great adventure and New England. I love six flags already! The mainstreet at New England is just so beautiful and nostalgic to me. And great adventure has so many B&M’s, and I love B&M. Two phenomenal parks that I am very happy to call my home parks. Especially New England, it’s the closer one to me, and I have so many memories of staring up at Superman and just having my mind blown. I first went on it on a summer camp field trip, and it got me to my love of coasters I have today. Shoutout to Intamin!

[@CanobieCoaster]

I agree Main Street looks nice.

[@Cat3465]

If you visit SFOG, there will be 2 B&M's greating you when entering the park, which are both Goliath and Scorcher

[@Megacoasterman]

Im trying to decide if I should go to Texas or Florida for coasters. I think Florida might have a better ride lineup and I will be able to get one rare credit along the way being Dragon's Tail in Haiti, plus maybe be able to hit some places in Georgia (maybe) but if I go to Texas I will be able to experience Fiesta Texas, all those parks including Bolt on Carnival Jubilee and Jungle Coaster at Selvatica. Would you have an opinion?

[@CanobieCoaster]

I recommend Florida, especially since the theming of those parks is great too.

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

I've always found La Ronde a bit underrated as even though it has poor roller coasters overall, I was impressed by the operations when I went (especially on Goliath) and the setting and appearance are simply gorgeous.

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

I would reverse everything you said I hate the operations and park atmosphere while I actually think la ronde has the best coaster lineup of the lower tier six flags parks (Darien lake great escape frontier city and la ronde) since I actually liked la monstre vampire and goliath

[@mateoalvira3514]

Canobie Coaster said: Number 13: Six Flags Darien Lake in upstate New York. This is a park that Six Flags previously sold off, but they recently reacquired it. This park has a ton of promise. It's a full-fledged resort with plenty of land and a nice ride lineup. Some areas just need freshening up and they really need to improve their operations. Almost every coaster here has just one train, which makes lines move at a snail's pace. That even included their headlining coaster in Ride of Steel. This is the original Intamin hyper coaster. It uniquely passes over a lake and has some strong ejector airtime moments. The with the recent trackwork, Predator is running smoothly and it has several spots where it offers airtime and laterals simultaneously. While the coaster lineup is not as deep as others on the list, the supporting coasters are solid overall. Tantrum, Viper, Boomerang, and Motocoaster are all enjoyable rides. You should also talk about Mind Eraser, the park's Vekoma SLC. But why did you not say that?

I hate that ride.

I feel like the top two are indisputable and only vary based on personal preference. Magic Mountain has an S tier coaster lineup and Fiesta Texas is the nicest and most well rounded park in the chain. I personally love Monster Mansion so much that Over Georgia is just a bit higher for me. Call me a dork but it might be my favorite ride in the chain depending on when you ask me.

At Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, Canobie Coaster said: The front half is the former parking lot, so the park has crammed in a ton of coasters in there. Joker is an underrated RMC with some punchy drops and spectacular inversions. I absolutely love the stall. Medusa is a great looping coaster from B&M. This floorless coaster is a large, smooth, and forceful ride. Then there are two nice launch coasters in Superman, which is a Premier Rides Sky Rocket II and that ride has some wild airtime. The other is Flash: Vertical Velocity, which is a strange Intamin impulse coaster with freaky hangtime. And Batman the Ride is a chaotic S&S free spin offering a few flips. Don't forget Kong, the park's Vekoma SLC. But why did you not say that?

[@CanobieCoaster]

Kong is atrocious.

[@ThrillsofColdplay]

I’m curious how much longer La Ronde will have until it closes

[@CanobieCoaster]

It should be safe. The park gets crowds despite little investment.

[@Cat3465]

SFOG is typically a hit or miss. It sometimes get bashed on by enthusiasts but not always cuz it's one of the most praised parks in the chain. The park has one of the strongest coaster line ups now that they have 13 of them with Georgia Surfer being their newest coaster. It has beautiful scenary but not as much as what Fiesta has

[@CanobieCoaster]

I just wish the ops were consistently good.

[@mateoalvira3514]

I would ask you about coasters at both Six Flags and Cedar Fair parks. For example, imagine trying to ride again: Batman the Ride at Six Flags Great America and Flight Deck at Canada's Wonderland. What would you think?

[@CanobieCoaster]

I like Batman but not that Flight Deck.

[@Commanders2022]

Six flags america has so much potential. It doesn’t get major additions because of low attendance, but the reason why attendance is low is because the locals know the park hasn’t grown much over the past 23 years. People would rather go to Kings dominion, Hershey, and BGW. The park might seem like it is slowly growing, but attendance is probably the lowest it’s been since the 1990s. I remember 10 years ago when Fright Fest used to be crowded every night and the overflow parking lot being filled up. This past fright fest, the over flow parking lot was barely used and the longest wait time was 15 mins. The park is also one of the only parks in the area that does not have a Holiday event anymore. The park suffers because six flags won’t take the risk and invest in the park. I think the only way they will get a new coaster is if they RMC Roar or remove batwing and put in a small single rail.

[@CanobieCoaster]

I'd love to see this park invest more. They have a lot of potential, but the park really is hurt by its past reputation.

1. Magic Mountain 2. Over Georgia 3. Fiesta Texas I have to admit the Fiesta Texas day wasn't the best.

[@stonerthoosie]

I can agree with some of what you say about SFGAm. The ops are actually pretty solid usually. It sucks that MaxxForce has to run with one train tho. Having been to SFGAm more times than the average enthusiast, I have to step in when I hear people talk about the lines being a problem because of how busy the park apparently gets. I go at least once a week on average throughout the season and it’s usually on a week day. And I never usually run into lines that are too long and I’m able to marathon rides pretty consistently there. I think SFGAm gets a bad rep for that because it CAN get busy being nestled between the Milwaukee and Chicago areas. But as a local, I can tell you other enthusiasts out there to not be discouraged when you hear others talk up the business of this park. It’s overblown. And as a result, it gets unfairly ranked. SFGAm is a Top 3 Six Flags park. Just catch it on a weekday and you’ll most likely be fine.

[@CanobieCoaster]

When I was there in 2021, Maxx Force always ran two. But I did hit high crowds on a few days.

[@stonerthoosie]

@@CanobieCoaster That’s the last time it ran 2 trains. I heard it’s because the ride didn’t break down as much with just one train. I understand that’s your experience. I was just filling in the blanks as a local enthusiast. I frequently am at the park on days when the lines aren’t long at all.

It seems that Six Flags is moving away from the single rider lines, as they probably realized that to effectively have single rider lines, they need to have assigned seating, which requires more staff and leads to guests being unhappy about not getting to pick their row. Pandemoniums should still be able to have it. I have Great Adventure ahead of Magic Mountain, for the amazing operations, but it's a close call. I actually have SFNE 4th, but maybe my opinion on it is skewed from the spectacular experience I had on my only visit over 2+ days in 2019. SFOT is my # 5, as my almost-home park bias gives it a boost. Beyond that, I think I'm in line with your rankings, other than having not been to Mexico or La Ronde.

[@CanobieCoaster]

Six Flags as a chain seems to have removed single rider lines. The best ones loaded from the exit and let you pick the empty/available seats (Batman at New Englanf did that), but even those ones have been discontinued.

[@brallanalarcon9295]

Of the ones I’ve been to: 1. Great adventure 2. Magic Mountain 3. Great America 4. Over Georgia 5. New England 6. America I got lucky and only missed out on ninja at MM and great America is just such a strong park but needs a stand out ride. Great Adventure takes it for me the ride line up (although a lot are clones) is so good and with Phlash I think it’s going to make the gap between the top 2 bigger

[@CanobieCoaster]

That's good luck at Magic.

[@solarwinds5114]

I would say from where I've been: 1) Great Adventure 2) Great America 3) Fiesta Texas 4) Over Georgia 5) Over Texas 6) New England 7) America

[@CanobieCoaster]

Nice list!

[@JewishSingers]

Great Adventure was a lot better this year & with the new 2024 additions its gonna be a lot better.

[@CanobieCoaster]

Looking forward to visiting again this year.

[@AlgaeEater09]

Was hoping to see Astroworld here lol

[@CanobieCoaster]

Never made it there before the closure.

[@omarmendoza7150]

Six flags over Texas is nice! Great for walking and being with family! It lowkey big .

[@CanobieCoaster]

It is a big park.

[@bigc1280]

With the merger, I expect Six Flags to sell off a few of these. I think Darian Lake, La Ronde, and Frontier City will be sold to Premier Parks, while Discovery Kingdom will be a new Seaworld park.

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

I dream about discovery kingdom getting bought by seaworld the operations there suck

[@CanobieCoaster]

If anything, I see those parks just getting less investment. La Ronde gets crowds despite barely getting anything.

[@The716Show]

Six Flags Darien Lake is my home park! I love going there but I do wish we can get the Looney Tunes back at the park and the Superman name back on the Ride of Steel.

[@CanobieCoaster]

I'm surprised those haven't been brought in.

[@The716Show]

@@CanobieCoaster me too to be honest. We all still call Ride of Steel the Superman lol. I’m looking forward to going this season.

[@sandraweilbrenner67]

Magic Mountain, my home park.

[@CanobieCoaster]

Nice!

[@eko9554]

I don’t think I’ve ever been to six flags. I’ve only been to Knotts, Disneyland, universal studios Hollywood, legoland, and sea world(can’t remember cause I was a baby). I would love to go magic mountain and their other parks. My band from school did have an optional trip to visit magic mountain but I didn’t go.

[@CanobieCoaster]

Definitely worth visiting if you love coasters.

[@colestaal5686]

Of the Six Flags parks I've been to I rank them as 1. SFMM 2. SFGAd 3. SFGAm 4. SFSL. I feel like my list would be very similar if not identical to yours whenever I visit the rest of the parks. SFGAm is my home park and I'm glad you didn’t over rate it like many seem to do. Aside from Goliath the coasters are decent to pretty good, half the coasters are clones, mediocre ops, and it's crowded often.

[@CanobieCoaster]

SFGAm does many things well. If it got a signature coaster, it could make the top 3 for me.

[@mateoalvira3514]

Did you ever come off something at Six Flags Magic Mountain with a headache?

[@CanobieCoaster]

Yes, Riddler’s Revenge before I rode it with my stand up technique.

[@gooldenpug-yd1tp]

I am honestly surprised that my park got 1st!!😃

[@CanobieCoaster]

how is six flags great America at that spot IT HAS 10+ COASTERS

[@CanobieCoaster]

The atmosphere isn't as good as other Six Flags parks.

[@PretzelGalaxy]

@@CanobieCoaster oh thanks for letting me know

[@mateoalvira3514]

Imagine Mind Eraser at Six Flags America still running the old trains and not getting new trains. What would happen?

[@CanobieCoaster]

It would stay rough.

[@strudelninja]

Screamin' Eagle is in no way smoother than The Boss any more. Not that The Boss is smooth, but Eagle was running horribly rough this last season and I definitely walked away from it feeling worse than when I got on. And the ride is looking really rough too. I'm hopeful that we'll see Eagle get a big refurb for its 50th in 2026, hopefully some retracking and maybe new trains would help. A lot of the structure needs work too, as the wood looks like it's literally falling apart. Colossus, the ferris wheel, was also down on every visit for me last season and I wonder if maybe it was closed the whole year waiting for a part or something. I also still haven't gotten on Supergirl or the the Larson loop because those were also closed on all my visits, as was the splash battle...it's the rare park where you're likely to see more coasters than non-kiddie flats running, which I think is probably from their massive staffing issues (the park is just far enough out from the city that a lot of students would rather take local jobs that don't involve an hour commute, and there's no longer any form of bus running out there from the city).

[@CanobieCoaster]

Screamin' Eagle was smooth for me in 2020, but I haven't been to this park since.

[@strudelninja]

@@CanobieCoaster and 2023 was the first time I'd been in probably 15 years. I definitely recall it being smoother in my teens, but it really felt like it hadn't had any work on it between those two times.

[@StlCrp29]

I disagree...I live in Eureka and frequent the park alot and I'd say The Boss is waaay rougher. I will not ride it anymore...Screamin' Eagle had some rough rides during Fright Fest but it had some that went real smooth, I haven't had a decent ride on The Boss in many years....That's just my perspective

[@waycnf7229]

Once New England finally gets a new coaster, we'll be back to top 5! (Please make us have a 1, 2, 3 punch instead of just 2, Six Flags)

[@CanobieCoaster]

I hope they get another coaster soon.

[@MrBlonday]

Magic Mountain could be number 1 if it ran 2 trains and put in a modern hyper coaster from B&M or Intamin and took out Goliath

[@CanobieCoaster]

Better ops would make them number one for me.

[@mateoalvira3514]

Did you ever come off something at Six Flags Over Georgia with a headache?

[@CanobieCoaster]

Great American Scream Machine could cause one before the retrack.

[@Rigden1]

Six flags america will be even better once the steamworks area comes out

[@CanobieCoaster]

Should be!

[@Luphor]

The great escape isn’t to bad It’s restricted to a lot of big rides because from what I heard there is a height limit of how tall rides can go For example the outlaw was suppose to be near the comet at the back but it’s now near the front of the park So that’s why there’s not big rides

[@CanobieCoaster]

I like the park. It just doesn't have the ride lineup of the parks higher on this list.

[@RTWC269]

Nice list, except fiesta Texas for me is not as good as over Texas due to iron rattler and Wonder Woman both being closed on my visit 😅

[@CanobieCoaster]

That's very unfortunate.

[@ItsSiebay]

My home park really has been making a turnaround from where it was 10 years ago. I know where it falls short, and thankfully it seems like Six Flags is willing to do more with it nowadays. I really do hope we get a new coaster soon though, because Batwing’s days are numbered.

[@CanobieCoaster]

Has Batwing been reliable the past 2 years? It was bad in my 2020 and 2021 visits.

[@ItsSiebay]

@@CanobieCoaster it’s been running on most of my visits, but with only one train now, which has made queue times unreasonably long.

[@patatebanine4278]

😢Six Flags destroyed our local amusement park. La Ronde was an excellent park before Six flags bought it and destroy everything

[@CanobieCoaster]

Sorry the park has lost a lot. It has potential, but I hope it gets some major investments.

[@Zemmip]

Fiesta is such a great park and easily the nicest in the chain. Jeffrey should honestly be the CEO of Six Flags. Magic Mountain has amazing rides but outside of that the park is one of the worst in the chain. Operations at Magic Mountain are shameful and you're lucky if half the coasters in the park are open on any given day at this point.

[@CanobieCoaster]

I agree Magic's operations really could use improvement. With faster dispatches and a better ride schedule, they probably could take the top spot.

[@Zemmip]

@CanobieCoaster I went with a buddy last year and we had nearly a full week at the park. X2 only opened for about 1 hour during our entire trip. This was common with several other rides, and at no point were more than half the rides in the park actually open at once. Tatsu, Superman, Scream, and Riddler were closed the entire week. Lines were over an well over hour long for nearly everything in the park. They were obviously grossly understaffed and the ops were hilariously slow at getting trains dispatched. Was a night a day difference compared to the time we spent at Knotts which was wonderful.
