This video doesn’t do this ride any sort of justice. That first drop is easily the most terrifying that I’ve ever experienced, it is so fast and thrilling and I loved every second of that ride

[@drafv]

i got told it was a normal 🎢 and then in the drop my soul was like "ight imma head out

Yupp i got on today and i almost shit my pants

Even only being 170 feet. That’s probably one of the most intense drops I’ve ever experienced. It’s a truly out of body experience in the back seat. I’d only put the drops of Millennium Force and X over this.

That dive down to the water 3/4 into the ride is an absolute bit of design genius.

[@coldbloodedkilla2010]

Fiesta Texas has the best park layout and backdrop imo. It’s really something else being on top of the quarry and then dropping down to the bottom in both the Rattler and the Krypton Coaster.

[@MC22Scott]

We loved the park but it's scorching hot there compared to SF over Georgia. We've got too many hills here but there's lots of trees and shady areas to cool off. SF Fiesta TX was either roast or go into a store to bum air conditioning.

[@coldbloodedkilla2010]

Mari Scott My home park is SF Over Texas so I know what you mean, I find myself wanting to stay in the covered pavilions under a mist fan. March is a wonderful time to go to either park though!

[@Emeralds4lyfe]

I work at Fiesta Texas and Texasjust sucks most of the year. I work in the retail stores and I don't stop anyone coming in to cool off, especially since there is a big fan right above the door. Come inside, have a chat, and maybe you'll even learn something new. :) The best part of my day is having conversations with guests and knowing that they are able to cool off and enjoy their day.

[@Mys10c]

This ride is so damn scary the first time you ride it. That drop is REALLY good- scared the crap out of me when I first rode it. But then it’s just FUN. This ride is a BLAST!

short but one of the most exciting rides to go on. That first drop is hell. It feels like it's trying to throw you off the train. The twists and turns make it a fast loud and violent ride. That tunnel used to be cooler tho, it used to have smoke and lights.
