Giga tilt coaster I can see coming as a gimmick with a short layout to save money

[@uptheimps1472]

Think they're just teasing, this is SIX FLAGS we're talking about

[@CoasternautYT]

Is Six Flags Magic Mountain actually getting a GIGA coaster? Or are we just being teased by the park?

[@IntaminFanGRLPowerCoasters]

Probably just a tease

[@CoasternautYT]

@@IntaminFanGRLPowerCoasters I agree, but also I could see a super gimmicky six flags coaster like a tilt coaster into an Immelmann then brakes sort of thing, also I didn’t mention it in the video but a tower ride of over 300ft is also a possibility

[@andrewbarrett42]

Do not remove my Viper,its my iconic coaster.

[@CoasternautYT]

I hope to get to magic mountain soon to ride it, I’ve heard a lot of speculation over the past few years that magic mountain may remove it over the next decade or so to make way for a new modern thrill coaster

[@Cat3465]

The only drawback I see is that not every park in the chain can get a giga coaster. Some parks have hight restrictions like SFDK for example who can’t build anything above 150ft

Hi Coasternaut just recently subscribed & I am curious as to weather or not you been to Cedar Point or any of these Six Flags parks? If not then I really hope you do someday, because I have been to Cedar Point, Kings Island & Six Flags Great Adventure back in 2012 & my two all-time favorite roller coasters that stood out to me was Kingda Ka & Nitro.

[@CoasternautYT]

Unfortunately I’ve not had the chance to go to any cedar fair parks however I hope to over the next few years, planning a US trip for 2025. I went to great adventure for the first time this year and would love to visit the point and magic mountain

[@alexzrnic3139]

@@CoasternautYT Great to hear you been to Great Adventure, what is your thoughts on Kingda Ka? I would love to see you rank the rides there in a video.

[@CoasternautYT]

@@alexzrnic3139 thanks for the idea I’ll add that to my list and try to get that out in the next few weeks! Super intense launch but a bit rattly with over the shoulder restraints

[@tonyreyna1067]

No, their giga's going to be the sky Tower. They're remodeling it. That's the giga. I don't think they're getting a coaster

[@CoasternautYT]

This is another interesting theory, I can see them found this but after all the teasing I think it would leave fans very disappointed. Thanks for watching and I hope you subscribe for more!

[@Johnnyiswhere]

There is NOTHING going on at the Sky Tower. Why do people keep saying this

[@bryanrayfield7429]

I did hear about the sky tower repoening rumour which would be great too but as the tweet tweeted (or now X X"ed, however you could put that now) "Goliath is cool, but how about a giga?" That would be the dumest thing to tease bringing up another coaster name in the same sentence in comparison to the giga being the tower (though I wouldnt put it past some people's idiacy) I would be pretty sure it would at least be a coaster......or it better be!

[@CoasternautYT]

@@bryanrayfield7429 yeah I think it will be a coaster too not the sky tower however it would be a very six flags thing to do😂

[@bryanrayfield7429]

@CoasternautYT ​Very true, they will most likely get the lowest bidder on a 4 second 301' tall coaster with 320' of track. Forget Intamin, certainly forget B&M, K-mart may be building the next ride, though Magic Mountain seem to be slowly cleaning up their act so far thankfully.

[@darrylellis4809]

What would this park have to gain by teasing a giga?

[@CoasternautYT]

Exactly, makes me think some form of giga investment is coming to the park because otherwise fans will just be let down

[@darrylellis4809]

@@CoasternautYT couldn’t agree with you more. But at the end of the day does this park really need a giga? I plan to visit this park next year and from what I noticed this park has absolutely no flat rides. Do You know how high thrill flats you can for the price of a giga.

[@CoasternautYT]

@@darrylellis4809 magic mountain has a few flats but not loads I agree, but I think the park purposely chooses coasters instead to get the record. I think giga maybe teasing the reopening of the observation tower though not a coaster

[@darrylellis4809]

@@CoasternautYT Hmm I can agree with that. lol. Correct me if am wrong but I don’t Six Flags has spent 30,000000 on one single investment like this. This is gonna be really interesting on how this pans out.

[@CoasternautYT]

@@darrylellis4809 agreed, now that they have merged with cedar fair I think a fifa is far more likely

[@garyseward9781]

300 ft dibe coaster

[@psychopompinc.646]

I am holding with the hypothesis that the Giga being discussed is the Sky Tower refurb. Enthusiasts have wanted it done for years and the park really needs it. Plus that goes with the current trend of the chain looking to preserve the past and bring it up to current times. That said, I do think SFMM will get a Giga (or taller) coaster, but it won't be for 2025. It'll be for 2028 when LA is hosting the Olympics and my guess is that it will be record-breaking somehow. I can imagine the build trajectory being something like Tatsu where area clearing began two years before opening so the actual construction and installation could go as quickly and smoothly as possible. Plus, this tactic spreads out the cost over a longer period of time so more money can be spent in the long run on a project without obliterating the park's budget. And, for competition's sake, it gives time to see what happens with Falcon's Flight to plan accordingly.

[@CoasternautYT]

Yeah I’ve started to see more and more rumours of it being the sky tower and I think that’s a realistic option for now like you say. I do also agree that in the future they’ll get some sort of record breaking coaster again, it looks like we may be starting to enter a new era of coaster record wars over the next few years with many parks looking to one up each other again in their investments

[@psychopompinc.646]

@@CoasternautYT For my part, if I was Magic Mountain I'd center their next record breaking coaster around Superman. Build 100 feet on top of the existing structure and you have the North American height record by 50 feet. Then run down the mountain with its hill and you can beat Falcon's Flight for the world's longest drop, especially if you go into a tunnel. Now, I'd also follow the tact of Top Thrill 2 and add a spike (which could be taller than TT2's spike). But, the catch is, the spike would be on a switch track like Pantheon or a number of other guaranteed rollback coasters. Gives the rollback that people love, extends the ride time, and allows time for passengers to board the next train so it boosts capacity. I'd also make the coaster into a terrain coaster or an airtime machine to make it a truly unique Strata + coaster. My other addition would be a lighting package like the Tron cars have so at night you see streaks of light as the train races around.

[@CoasternautYT]

@@psychopompinc.646 wow that sounds awesome man! Very ambitious but if the coaster wars start again then I can definitely see the mountain go down a potential route like this
