To play Devil's Advocate a bit, though, this ride is over 40 years old now, and while I'm sure it was insane back in the day, it was the first ride at Magic Mountain I went on. Today, the VR was disabled, and while it was more intense than usual as a result, it was really very tame. Disneyland's Thunder Mountain Railroad is probably more intense than this. It left me wanting more out of the experience. They wanted to breathe new life into this old classic, and VR is how you do that. You can also request to ride without VR, too, so everybody wins. I have yet to try it without VR, but I imagine it'd make the whole thing a better experience... unless, of course, it makes me sick, as 3D glasses tend to do that to me.

The Revolution is Six Flags Magic Mountain's definitive ride and a classic. True the newer rides top this one with regard to intensity, but it's a classic. I was a kid in the 80's and would go to Magic Mountain a few times a year and this ride was one of the scariest rides because it went upside down. When entering the park as you make your way into the main plaza , the Revolution's Giant White Loop towers above directly in front of you which serves as the perfect icon for the thrills you are about experience through out the day. Magic Mountain wouldn't be the same without this ride and I'm very glad it's still there.

I thought they would've removed some of the trims. Still, does look smoother than before.

To those complaining of overbreaking: its a 70s coaster that still exists, the first coaster with a loop, it's a piece of history. Of course it was not designed with today's knowledge and experience. The "overbreaking" is what keeps this coaster from tearing itself apart without making radical design changes.

I grew up at SFMM during the summers from 79-85 and Revolutions lift hill is permanently etched in my mind.

Unfortunately all the trim breaks are still in place (nearly stopping the ride before the loop, and the one after the tunnel). I guess my expectations were too high.

@eloscuro704

7 ай бұрын

I went on it a number of times after it opened and I don't remember trim brakes after the tunnel at all. That last helix after the tunnel was one of the most intense parts of the ride. And I am pretty sure they had trim brakes before the loop, but they didn't almost stop the ride like in the video. It pulled nearly 5 G's in the loop and it was hard to keep my hands up. And they lost the crappy over the shoulder restraints they added in the 90's and went back to just having the lap belt.

The coaster looks a whole lot better now! The trains make it so much smoother, lots of landscaping has been done to make the coaster look refreshed instead of making it being worn out in the trees, and that paint job is amazing too :) Although I'd like to see the air brakes be removed and also the train slows down too often going through the track. Other than that, this ride is much better :)

They should have REALLY restored the ride to the way it was when it opened. Those new trains look so corny.

How many of us original Revolution gangsters remember ...when there wasn't a brake after the final curve and the train came to a hard stop at the powerhouse behind the loading train in front of it, ...then, the chain would pull you in to disembark as it push the train in front to the lift?!!! I think the trains once collided at the powerhouse and that's when they started breaking the train as soon as it came out the final curve.

I haven't rode this one...yet. However, I DID ride the Sooper Dooper Looper at Hershey Park and it is kind of a smaller sister coaster to this one. It also features the track going through the loop. Glad to see that both coasters are still around today as they were pioneers in looping coasters. The Sooper Dooper Looper, like all early Schwartzkopf loop coasters, didn't have the over shoulder restraints. The first coaster I rode that was like this was the Scorpion at Busch Gardens, Tampa. THAT is also still there. Goes to show that these coasters stood the test of time.

So on the roller coaster, is it a lap bar or is it a over the shoulder? Bc im scared to go on this😂

@transitfan954

I rode it waaaayy back in the day (1977 and 1978) and it did seem that they added some brakes (or at least they were making more use of the ones that may have always been there. Usually, you'd get a brake right after the final turn when you were on the straightaway to pull into the station. Often, that brake was the worst part of the whole ride as it was rather abrupt. Seems like they toned it down now. Then you had the one as you arrived at the loading area. Must have been a busy day, as usually there was a train not in use on those side tracks just before you got into the station (I remember them running 5 trains with a sixth on the storage tracks). So either they run all 6, or they just have 5 now.

is this the first upside down roller coaster? i remember watching a very old movie about this roller coaster

1:25 - what is that ride in front of them? I can't make sense of that track. It's an under carriage. but it can't be a hanging coaster going into that loop on the right, but coming out of it on top, you are upside down too long for centrifugal force to keep you in your seat while upside down. What's up with that?

Quite irritating with the ones screaming like they were about to die and speak a lot of completely incomprehensible nonsense during the ride, not least because of the fact that it's a very slow roller coaster where almost nothing happens. It looks like there are a lot of bigger, more extreme roller coasters around at SF Magic Mountain. I have to check out your other videos from Magic Mountain to ride with the more extreme coasters now. Nice video, anyway. I know that it wasn't you who did record it who did irritate the viewers with screams and speaking - cause you never do that in your videos and that's great. What other riders around you do during the ride is not something you can control. And it's good that you record these coasters too, even though wilder and more extreme ones exist. Thumbs up to you, look forward to see more and you do a great job!

Great idea, in theory. Horrible execution. Trains take WAY too long to load despite the fact that they had 4 or 5 staff loading and that's not including the operators or the ones cleaning gear or handing them out. Operating expenses must be outrageous. It was literally more than 8 minutes for a train to leave. Trains were leaving the station half-empty because they couldn't get the equipment syncing or couldn't hand clean the units fast enough. Maybe a combination of both. In regards to the ride, VR looks choppy. I've been a passholder for over ten years and I have to say, bad idea Six Flags. Take away the gimmick and keep it as a classic coaster.

@1:49 I think that was the spot Timothy Bottoms was hit by the train in the movie _Rollercoaster._

Wait a minute it wasn't from the 1977 film roller coaster or the roller coaster in the film at the end there was ?????

Is the ride smoother with the new trains, or is it about the same? It must feel smother at least since your head isn't slamming against the shoulder restraints

I rode it and have to say it's much smoother and not as loud as the old trains

Its Tatsu

I live In France. And I remember the movie in 1977 « rollercoaster ». The title In France was « Le toboggan de la mort » (« death slide »). The poster for the film in France impressed me as much as the film. And I'm so happy to see this video on KZread it brings back so many memories of my youth because this film had a great impact on me. I hope one day to be able to take a ride in this Rollercoaster in homage to this film. Knowing that in the 70s/80s there were no rollercoasters in France. it was more in the UK and Belgium. So after the film I dreamed of riding in this kind of attraction. By the way In France we call rollercoasters : « montagnes russes » (Russian mountains) 😉

You can see this coaster in the movie "Rollercoaster" (1977) , with George Segal and Richard Widmark

It doesn't anymore. The VR was a colossal failure that nobody liked; VR on roller coasters was a weird trend in the amusement industry back in 2016 that died very quickly. I first rode this with VR and it was awful; the original ride is way better.

Isn't that the exact same coaster they used when they filmed "Rollercoaster" from 1977?? I know it's been updated over the years. Imagine Timothy Bottoms who was on the movie riding this today (He's still alive today).

+Alicia Cleeland oh ik thx

This coaster was featured in the 1978 movie KISS Meets The Phantom of the Park

Ah the memories. I rode it many times beginning in 1976 when it opened. It's been 20 years since I have been on the ride. Thanks for helping me relive the experience. Amazing how big those trees have grown. The drawback to this video is the running commentary by the clown in the background.

Question: Is there an age or height limit for the VR goggles?

Ah yes, the guys from COASTERFORCE are babies when it comes to roller coasters. Do you even hear yourself?

I was about to ask if wearing the helmets were optional. Thanks. I am old school and the first time I rode Revolution I was nine years old and must have ridden it about five or six times and loved it. The VR aspect to me is totally unecessary due to how good the ride is without it.

was this out before or after galactica at alton towers

+Tyler Devine-Scott VR on The New Revolution at Six Flags Magic Mountain just opened, but the same VR opened on Dare Devil Dive Coaster at Six Flags Over Georgia almost two weeks before Galactica at Alton Towers. There are eight other Six Flags coasters that will have the VR experience, but three of them are Superman coasters and will have a different VR experience themed to the Man of Steel.

Classic. I didn't like the orange coaster built all around the Revolution in some of the areas. Great video. Thanks for this!
