Jeffrey Siebert is such a nice guy. Earlier this year on my USA coaster trip I bumped into him at the park and had a nice little chat. Some rides were down and he knew exactly what was wrong with them and when they'd open back up later in the day if things got fixed in time. As you say, you can see that he cares about the park.

[@railsrust]

Glad you could enjoy the park. Especially glad Amy enjoyed the train ride since I'm one of the train engineers.

[@kevinmorris6984]

Come on Chris, you can’t say “95 degrees, straight down”. You have to say “95 degrees- MORE than straight down”. I thought the Pythagorean theorem would have saved you from that. Great vid 😎

[@AirtimeThrills]

Ill leave the math to the professionals

[@StinnerMatjest]

@@AirtimeThrills Should have used google maps and the pythagoras theorem...

[@Thuggysmurf]

5:48 My daughter is around same age/height as Sophie (and also loves coasters). Same reaction to SFFT Wonderwoman as Sophie. Look at the Wonderwoman ride photo of Sophie, you'll probably see the shoulder restraint hitting her neck. Jersey Devil at SFGAdv and Wonderwoman at SFMM have much improved restraints that allow kids Sophie's height to enjoy the ride.

I think a video ranking every dive coaster (experience or prime time) would be very cool. Also love your videos 👍

[@urbex_coasters]

The theaming on Dr Diabolical is impressive, hope to see the character in more Six Flags parks soon (and I think she's taking over Mr Freeze at Over Texas so that is fairly likely).

[@dgvids6000]

Maybe but I think fiesta texas made this character not the whole six flags idk

[@urbex_coasters]

@@dgvids6000 She's a more obscure DC Comics character from an alternate timeline to their main timeline in my understanding. Not an invention of Fiesta Texas. Knowing how the theaming didn't take long to set up I would believe Over Texas saw it and said "we want that", Salim said no to a new ride but they could get away with retheaming a ride theamed to the aweful Batman&Robin movie from the 90s that many going to the parks today have no memory of.

[@TheWolfXCIX]

That's actually an interesting shout, quite possible now I think about it

[@Icemann383]

I totally get why some people think Fiesta Texas is the best Six Flags park. While it doesn’t have the depth of some of the bigger parks, it’s top tier rides are first class and it’s theming and presentation and how it’s run is easily the best of the chain.

[@AirtimeThrills]

Definitely the best run. The lineup is just behind some of thr big boys

[@tyler951]

It is an awesome home park. I've lived in SA since 2018 and I FINALLY made my 1st - 7th trips to the park so far this year. Velocicoaster reignited my long dormant coaster love in April, and I bought a Thrillseeker pass for Fiesta Texas in June. Been enjoying making up for lost time.

[@alex33952]

Fiesta gets a lot of love since 2018 compared to sfne a dive and a raptor versus a free spin. I think they like this park and they seem to get it done execution wise.Hoping to get there next year

[@AzureAnimates]

Chris: "Let's go see how Superman is running," You go to Iron Rattler

[@AirtimeThrills]

Lol i meant its 3 or 4 depending on how superman is running

[@zacg_]

I know Fiesta Texas was cool before Six Flags acquired it but I'm really amazed that the chain lets it be so special and impressive. It continues to blur the line between amusement park and theme park and even their new attractions still get way better theming and presentation than anything else in the chain. It really is the Knotts Berry Farm of Six Flags.

[@coasterfamilyfeud3247]

Great meeting you last week at Over Texas… we’re headed to SFFT in a couple of weeks for our Farewell Six Flags Tour… we’re opting for Sea World next year.

[@AirtimeProductions]

Okay the audio thing is so cool! I love hearing coasters from across the park like Riddler roaring across MM

[@GarrettEulett]

I see you called the new Wonder Woman at Magic Mountain "the bad one." Most reviews I've seen suggest that it's an improvement over Jersey Devil.

[@AirtimeThrills]

I know i was joking based on what i said about JD...ill get to ride WWFOC next month

[@GarrettEulett]

@@AirtimeThrills Oh. I'm sorry, I'm not very good with sarcasm and stuff like that. I didn't mean to be that "um actually" guy, I'm sorry.

[@aafragz3746]

I’ve been on the wonder man at six flags magic mountain and fiesta Texas, and the Wonder Woman at magic mountain is only slightly better than fiesta Texas, it’s less snappy and the elements are more drawn out but the ride is much much longer and the drop and zero g stalk are incredible

[@Sammerthehammer41]

Wonder Woman at magic mountain is actually super fun

[@TuaGlazer]

I got decent ejector airtime and thought the elements really popped.

[@ChiefScarneck]

I went to Glenwood Caverns this past weekend with my family for my first time. Mostly went there for Defiance, but I think Cliffhanger was better ^^;; A very unique park I'd like to see you tackle sometime! (Also come back to Lagoon!)

[@AirtimeThrills]

If love to go to denver again but its so out of my way

[@OriginalJoe]

Also a big shout out to Glenwood hot springs. It’s definitely in my top 10 pool credits. They have water slides with warm water- it’s pretty trippy

[@nichtsistkostenlos6565]

Cliffhanger is a janky mess. I definitely rank Defiance much higher, though it's way too short and the shoulder restraints are awful, the elements are pretty interesting and somewhat unique. Gotta keep your head back, though. The whipping action of the rolls will make you smack your head into the restraints, which happened to me the first time. One of the many reasons lap bars will always be superior.

[@JVR10893]

Fiesta Texas seems like a wonderful park. I have to get out to San Antonio to visit it some day.

[@Maya_Ruinz]

Its a lot of fun, a lot of very solid rides but best time to come is in the early spring or fall because the summer heat can be really intense and hard to deal with. I've lived in south Texas most of my life so I'm used to the heat but for people who aren't used to it the quarry can be a hell pit.

[@heather1980]

San Antonio is the best 6Flags park by far. Thanks for doing this!

[@SamiLB_]

I have to agree. The coaster lineup is strong enough to combine with the theming and i think this is the best six flags park! I had a great experience in august without even riding iron rattler (it was closed)

[@miked509]

Great video! It's great to hear you liked the new coaster there!

[@expeditioned2821]

6:04 the music that starts is just perfect how dramatic it is for Wonder Woman! Great vlog Chris

[@HRW_Weather_]

Love your content, I’m really looking forward to a Six Flags Over Texas vlog. 😊

[@AirtimeThrills]

I would have loved to vlog there this time but we had to leave early

[@HRW_Weather_]

Ahhhh, that’s too bad! Did you get one last Mr Freeze ride?

[@thefergyfilms]

Interesting that it might be getting rough. Could explain why the newer single rails go through the course a lot slower, I have not ridden one yet but EVERYONE seems to agree it blows through its course insanely quickly.

[@Sonic-gy7kq]

First model they probably did build it too snappy, but probably fine too just rough I guess. *flashes back to suspended model*

[@Maya_Ruinz]

Honestly the ride is so fast that its hard to comprehend the roughness, you are in constant transition from one element to another that the body has a hard time staying in the seat. I have a hard time gauging its roughness even on my 50th ride.

[@AirtimeThrills]

@@Maya_Ruinz i agree but even with the insanity the shakiness was hard to ignore

[@Elitegymnasticsfan26]

Great video per usual! I know everyone has posted videos on the Top Thrill Dragster situation, but I’d love to hear your take on the announcement!

[@AirtimeThrills]

I've been talking a lot about TTD in my buy or sell videos, and I've been pretty consistent on my idea that they will not tear it down, but they will likely change the launch system. Their announcement earlier this week seems to be in line with what I was thinking would happen.

[@Happy_EditsCosplay]

Nice vlog I love Dr diabolical I rode it on its opening day and it was really good.

[@jonathonfreeman9233]

So I've only been to 1 park with a dive coaster - that being Busch Gardens Tampa and Shiekra. How does that one rank to other dive coasters?

[@AirtimeThrills]

I like Griffon more, this one I think is a little better than Sheikra

[@nylahtay]

Which day during labor day did you go? I was there Sunday Sept 28th and poltergeist was off and on all day until they finally closed it early for the day around 4pm.

[@AirtimeThrills]

I was there Monday

[@batreg6996]

I saw you uploaded this video but ive been staying away from vids involving dr Diabolical’s cliffhanger until i rode it. I finally rode it and i say its overall the best ride in the park,from the theming to the pacing i love it. Although i was thinking griffon would be better since its a hyper dive. Cool video and i love these vlogs.

[@favroitetiger2955]

Do you think ride layout will get upgraded for top thrill dragster. For example add a rolling inversion on top of the top hot. While coming down the top hot the ride will go into the worlds largest dive loop.

[@AirtimeThrills]

Hmm i think it'll just be a launch change

[@sjsmith8739]

Sophie is right about Wonder Woman. It now rides like a shopping cart with a bad wheel racing down a mountain

[@C3T1C]

valravn at cedar point is my only B&M dive coaster ive ridden, do you think its dr Diabolical is better than valravn?

[@AirtimeThrills]

Hmm i dont think so

[@AvoidTIMtation]

I knew that would be her reaction to Wonder Woman LOL That ride feels like it hates people and is actively trying to kick you off

I only visited Fiesta Texas once, but it's my favorite Six Flags park. While it may not have the lineup like Great Adventure, the park feels like Six Flags' version of Kings Island. It is run very well, and has great atmosphere.

I remember Cedar Point's clown haunt for a long time was Carn-Evil. They stopped doing it a couple years ago, so I wonder if Six Flags trademarked it. Or it could just be a very generic name for a clown haunt.

Surely it comes from Emerson, Lake & Palmer's fourth album Brain Salad Surgery, containing the track "Karn Evil 9".

Hurricane Force 5 isn't a coaster. That version is powered the whole time. However, there is a version of that ride with a hill that you go over. That version does coast somewhat, so it technically is a coaster. Park at OWA (Tropic Falls) has one of those, Wave Rider.

[@AirtimeThrills]

Nice. And hope its using round wheels and not square ones

[@nolimitscoasterguy4813]

Funny, because I remember so many people saying the dr.diabolical would be a worse version of emperor, but it seems to be the opposite

[@CEWThree]

SFFT has been my home park for years, and I'm spoiled (I mean, there's SeaWorld SA right by it, but let's be honest). Year after year, this park keeps stepping it up with great thrills and improvements for guests. I went to the grand opening for Dr. Diabolical, and it was a grand affair. The actress who voices Diabolical in the preshow and on-ride audio was there in full costume (she as the character was also the MC for Fright Fest last year), and they set off fireworks and everything. Basically every time they add a new ride, it fills an empty spot in the park's lineup, to the point where if they want to build another coaster-- besides needing to make room-- they'd need to go a bit more niche with it, like a flying coaster/wing coaster/new model like the axis or surf. Though some days, I do have to agree with Sophie about Wonder Woman. You ride so close to the track that you feel every imperfection in the steel, and the restraints are legitimately painful. As someone who is of average build, but with a longer than average torso and prominent collarbone, the straps on the vest dig in and can bruise me. I still ride it, just not every time.

[@loganjones3610]

Went there for first time a couple weeks ago on a road trip. Every coaster was open…except IRON RATTLER. Still had a good day but such a bummer I gotta wait to ride it.
