@mixtape3 theres two different sets of track, the one on the outer edge of the spine, and track in the middle of the spine. the track on the outer edge is what supports the coaster train. the track in the middle of the spine moves slightly higher than the train supporting track and then pushes a rack, which turns the gear that the seats are attached to. that is what spins the seats. sorry if i mixed up which track is which! hope i explained good. if i didn't, just google how x2 works.

@purpleninjabarbie Omg me too this Freaking tramatized me I was screaming for dear life, my shoulder ARM things were really loose and they more so I was sooooo scared I almost cried and I'm a dude -.-
I'm 14 and my parents always talked about magic mountain but iv never been, but on my 11 birthday we went and Deja vu was closed and we go every year, but it has been closed every time D:
@brendonian wait , so like i dont get it ... is it fast ... do you feel anything basically ive been to every ride in magic except , goliath, superman (new one ),riddler (can't wait till i go on ), x2 of course . the rest i went but ya haha
@chilurae It's a super extreme ride throughout the whole thing. The flips along with the g forces make it completely wild. It's definitely the most exciting and extreme ride I've ever been on, and I've been to at least a dozen theme parks in the US (including going on Kingda Ka in Six Flags: Great Adventure)
@brendonian omg i want to go but x2 is like ugghhhh . oh and what are g forces . and aslo does viper hurt alotnow during the ride cas i havent been to that one in a while
@chilurae I don't remember exactly, it's hard to tell because a lot of the times, the g forces abruptly change from towards you to away from you. I definitely recommend trying X2 at least once.
I never thought the Viper was that bad in terms of shakyness. The best thing to do is to keep your head back to reduce whiplash.
@brendonian ok umm can you give me the full link so i can just click on it because i typed it in the bar and it didnt work so just give me the link , so ill just click on it . what were you talking about the tunnels ?
@brendonian omg ok uuuhhh i am soooo scared but its just the drop that im worried about , if you pull your head back will it be less scary ? u went on this ride , right ?
@chilurae Yeah I've been on it a few times. It's actually a really smooth ride, so you can tilt your head in any direction you feel comfortable with, though they usually recommend keeping your head back against the head rest.
@chilurae I don't think it's the fastest by a long shot... I think it goes around 60-70 MPH. Goliath and Superman are definitely faster. Goliath is in the 80 range and Superman is in the 100s.
@chilurae Not off the top of my head, no. Don't worry so much about the speed of the ride, just give it a try. At the very least you'll be able to tell your friends you went on it!
@brendonian when me , my sis and bro , and a freind go to magic we will go on x2 cause i dont want to go on x2 by myself haha and yes i am worried about the speed and the drops because i cant take care of the speed that well , im gonna try riddler though ... any thoughts about that ive been on scream
@chilurae I think you'll have a great time. Riddler is kind of similar to Scream, only you're standing...that's about it really. Tatsu is also a lot of fun, and I would recomend saving X2 for last (best for last)
@brendonian haha i went on riddler and it was really fun , it was actually alot like scream but i wish it was a bit faster and while i was waiting in line for tatsu , a bunch of ppl kept telling me that x2 was tttooooooooo EXTREME ! im gonna try deja vu but im only scared of the 2 stands ... ive been on deja vu before but that was last year .... what's a good spot for deja vu ? the middle ?
this ride is so fucking sweet, your back is facing the rollercoaster when your riding it, it's so fucking extreme, you can't see shit. the ride is sick, it feels like you jumped off a fucking plane, sooo extreme haha, SOOOO EXTREME!!!!!
the line for this ride is usually 4-5 hours long, in the morning wen the park opens everyone goes to that ride so the line is about 7 hours, its better to go in the evening
@reggienavarro12 Nah, dude. I went with my friend and got there like half an hour before the park opened. We went straight to X2 and there was no line - we went on it 3 times in a row.
hahah ive always been scared to death on any ride, even tilt a whirl at the fair. but a week ago my cousin forced me to go on one of these rides and i said anything but this one, and we ended up getting in line for this one first by accident and now im seriously not scared of any rollercoaster. this one wasn't even that scary, though, it was just ssooooo confusing!! i couldn't tell what was going on lol :)
I went on this waited 1hr in line but it was worth it!! I didn't c the fire but this was flippin scary my sis usally laughs hysterically but she screamed and cussed hecka BUT SOO FUN!!!!! :) u needa go on it
omg i went on saturday, july 31st, 2010, and the line for this ride was 5 hours! no joke!! thats half of your day waiting in line for ONE ride..... HELL NO loooll
The first time I went on x2 it took 2hrs waiting in line I went in da front and I swear I all I wanted was to get off I felt like I was gonna feel out of the ride! And then this year I went on again but not in the front haha I only took me 5mins to get on :] on Thursday it's not crowded at all!:)..if ur scared to get on well just face you fears!
It was Media Day for the ride and due to winds they couldn't have the fire on. So they ran the ride empty so news helicopters and camera crews for the news and six flags could get footage of the fire.
I much prefer the old colours to the new colours as they were fun and vibrant now it just looks dull. However, it is still the best ride on the planet in my opinion! I have only ever been on the old X though. But we managed to go on it 6 times as the queue was only 5-10 minutes long! Visit in May.....good time to go!
i got on this ride when i was on vacation with my fiance and lets just say i felt like i had an angel in my pocket cause that ride scare the #@!$ out of me.
i waited an hour & we werent clse to getting there and they told us we had to wait an hour more ...hell nahhhh so wee leftt lol + i was happy cause i didnt wnna go onn lol
I was sort of truly shocked when X's track was painted into the red one. I would have to say I still love the old school one since we can't have fun seeing any sort of difference in color now, like X is now like Viper. It's sad.
i waited about 45 minutes! it was three weeks ago and the wait took about 45 minutes to an hour. 55 minutes at the most. no matter how long the wait though, its totally worth it. even better at night! scarier too. i luv it!!!!
Didn't they say there was going to be a tunnel???? And what's with the wierd flames??? They are soo out of place and don't belong on the ride at all!!!
hey the flames have changed now! They made them turn on as soon as the first seat touched this gear and turned on instead until the whole trian passes!
If you are in the back yuo can seriously feel the heat on your face! and the second to last seat too! its pretty hot, even my jeans got a little hot lool!
It stinks that the lines get so ridiculous. It is really a great ride.

The tunnel idea got shelved a few months ago. Instead they decided to go with fire and fog effects.
The tunnel that they were going to use, IMO looked very weird and wouldn't have added to the ride experience at all.
