This one is an absolute classic, however, I will always miss the Shockwave ! @Donillini.....don't all Arrow and Vekoma corkscrew coasters give everyone headaches ? That's part of the fun !!!!
Very nice to see this coaster and many thanks for uploading. On a visit to the Blackpool Pleasure Beach amusement park in the northwest of England, they have a Little Dipper there too that's been around for years. I wonder if the idea, or even the design for this one, comes from the Blackpool one.
@jason63433 This ride is older than the Whizzer and Shockwave. I never really liked Shockwave because it would always give me a headache. I am glad they put this in there because it was a dead section of the park!
@Donillini true enough this may be a old ride, but come on,,,, "the shockwave was a classic tubular steel looping roller coaster with 7 loops and running at high speed of 75. come on now... give it to me..
@jason63433 Shockwave is not a classic. An old Arrow steel coaster is good for nothing except scrap metal. Arrow did not know how to properly build a comfortable steel multi-inversion coaster, which is why so many Arrow coasters find their way to the junk pile after only a relatively short life. Good riddance, Arrow AND Shockwave!
this right here means way more to me in the way of six flags improvements than magic mountain's "3 new rides" thing . they saved the whizzer, and now this.. i'm embarrased that southern cal;ifornia doesnt have the same effect on magic mountain over restoring colossus and revolution .
I wanna ride this but I fear it may be BORING. I know it's a little kids ride, but still. I went on The Whizzer last year, and while it was fun, it was a little boring.
@face2faceish1 its more about the fact that it's from kiddie land. I haven't ridden it since I was 8 but even then I didn't think it was much of a "thrill" but it's still part of my childhood lol
How did i get here from the scariest rollacoasters

Made me sad that when I rode this last year, they removed the hand breaks. I remember watching them do that in awe when I was 9 :D
