The slingshot is a Sky ride which throws you in the air and flips over, like a humongous version of those trampolines at county fairs. It is almost the size of the top thrill dragster

I went today, and I rode 7 roller coasters! Everybody thought it was gonna rain, so nobody barely came. The longest wait was 30 minutes!!! I rode 3 new rides today that I haven't rode before. Before I've rode others like Maverick, Raptor, Corkscrew ( also rode today ) but these, never before. - Wicked Twister -Millenium Force - Magnum XL 200 Millenium Force- I was so freaking scared! We started going up, and I'm like, "Crap! WHAT THE HECK WAS I THINKING!!!!". And then it started going up, and I said. "HECK YEAH! LETS DO THIS!" And threw my hands up. I had my hands up the whole time and I loved it. I feel like I can conquer anything. :D Magnum XL 200- I was really excited to ride it. I knew what it was like since I've seen the POVS, but none of my cousins and sister did! We started getting out of the little gates of the coaster, and started going up. My cousin and sister said, "WHAT! THAT IS OUR HILL!!!! I NEVER WOULD'VE AGREED TO DO THIS!" And I just told them it would be okay. And I put my hands up the whole time. It was fun! Then I went again and got front seat. Hands UPPPPP!!! Wicked Twister- I know this is stupid, but this was the scariest to me. It felt really weird! I still liked it, but not my fave. HEAD BACK, HANDS UPPPP, AND ENJOY THE RIDE!

That's how long it's been for me :( Living in California, and now Texas has kept me away for too long. I am planning a trip back there this summer or fall....here's hoping.

The last ride of the night before closing was Millennium Force, there were gnats and bugs in the trees and all the riders started getting pelted by the bugs in the face before the camera went off.

Grady King Yupp just don't ride the Raptor or Gatekeeper first the lines are way longer in the morning than in the afternoon. The Millennium Force, Maverick, and Top Thrill Dragster lines will always be long so it's best to just pick and choose when you wanna wait. If you're rich, you can buy the fast lane, although CP is usually really good with getting riders in and out of trains in a timely manner.

Thanks for this video. It's great as always. Good to see how everything looks. I'm glad Skyhawk is completely fine now, as well as mean streak, and the water shooting on Maverick. The lighting looks amazing and the paint looks great as well(even if they didn't repaint much). Gemini's midway looks great too, except I don't like Monster's new colors but oh well. I also though Pipe Scream's colors could have been a little better. I don't know how I feel about the signs for the rides over there either. Monster's seems a bit odd for the feel of the park but I guess it's alright. And Pipe Scream's seems generic. Nice video editing too. I like some of the techniques you used.

What would be awesome for next year if they put the Blue Streak train on backwards, or even better idea would be to retrack the Mean Streak and get rid of that trim brake on the lift to restore it's original speed but make it smoother like the Outlaw Run style tracking.

Once again a super insight, the special I find with you, that you not only see the roller coasters, but does each small moments that you do not actually see, since you usually only see the roller coasters in many videos. What do you think better in the dark or during the day? Why?

I swear it was called The Spider, and The Witches Wheel, but those 2 rides have been there since I been going as a kid back in 1991.

Still to this day I ride the Witches Wheel, and Spider, plus every ride even the bullshit carnival ones, because thats what we were kids/teens. We would always go on the train at night to see the skeletons!! Its an attraction along side the track that runs from the station located near the Mean Streak. I forgot the name, but its the old west theme area.
