Mr freeze station is a pro. Most people in Texas don't have saunas

Pro: my grandparents are like a few minutes away Cons: they are old why would they ride

As someone who doesn’t go too often, anytime I visit the park I see it as a treat. I understand the rides are getting pretty old now but they’re just nostalgic classics to me. Shockwave was the first roller coaster I can vividly remember riding. I remember finally getting over my fears of titan and mr.freeze and going back to back on those rides again. Me and my friend were one of the first people to ride the new Texas giant and were surveyed for it. All the scary stories behind runaway mountain and the lake by judge Roy scream the kids would tell at middle school. Gotta get a funnel cake in the summer. Not too say the rides didn’t have their problems, they never really inconvenienced my times at the park. I finally moved back to Ft Worth after a couple years and I can’t wait to go back, I drive by the park nearly every damn day.

This is my home park, so you better do it justice Edit: these were actually really fair criticisms. It’s definitely safe to say that Six Flags neglects the park, which is a shame, because it has fairly strong attendance and is in the corporate headquarters’ backyard

"the 405 parking lot." Unfortunate, but true.

I’m so glad u agree with the coaster lineup problem, they really need to add more coasters that pack a punch and become a new standout attraction, SFOT doesn’t get much love from SF

I could go on a tangent about all the things wrong with my home park at Over Texas! So much potential!

SFOT homer here. A lot of nostalgia at this park that went unmentioned. World first tubular steel coaster and best Arrow minetrain left out there. World first log flume. LaVibora is a rare credit that is close to extinction. Oh, and yes, Texas Sky Screamer is EFFING terrifying. Ride it on a breezy day, the seat will rotate outward about 120 degrees and back again over and over for the entire ride. Scariest ride ever lol

From an outsider perspective, I’ve always seen Over Texas as a park that just seems strong! It’s coaster lineup could use one or two more solid coasters but overall I like their lineup and I want to go to the park one day!

I love your pros / cons series! Your commentaries are always fair and keep a good balance between being entertaining and informative 😄

This is my home park. My thesis paper could be the issues with this park.

As my home park, I think it is neglected so much. Six flags needs to spend some money to some cleaning and landscaping and get an original coaster.

I really wanna visit here for the pros you listed. It seems like the atmosphere is great and it’s a fun place, but the coasters aren’t quite good enough for me to really miss it when I’m not there

I'm soo glad you posted this! I live an hour from Magic Mountain and my best friend just moved to Arlington last week. I was gonna use visiting her as an excuse to check out SF Over Texas.

Although the mini mine train at SFOT had a MrBeast challenge take place on it, it still doesn't have the honor to be as good as Lil Phantom

This is My Home Park. It has problems but I Will Always Have A Soft Spot for It.

Love your Chanel and your videos You and coaster studios are easily my favourite channels

I would love to go to Six Flags over Texas. Just to see where it all began and this video also helps me with what they do right so good job and thanks.

Loving this style of video, as someone who lives in the UK and only has access to 3 (arguably) good parks, its interesting to get a more in-depth view on different parks I may go to when I eventually go to the US. Keep it up!

Thank you for the birthday upload @airtime thrills. Ik you uploaded today just for me and I appreciate it

This was my home park for 28 years, starting going in the 80s as a kid. I'm glad some of the old favorites are still there such as Shock Wave and Judge Roy Scream, but I sorely miss the Flashback. I live in Wisconsin now and have started going to Six Flags Great America, but I would love to go back to Over Texas soon.

These ranking and pro/con videos are so great!

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT! Better than an over-underrated park-type video idea tbh, this allows you to be a little more in-depth. An awesome video like usual!

Great video as always chris! Definitely want to visit this park at some point in my lifetime.

Thankyou:) I'm going there in 6 days for my birthday and I am so excited. It will be my first visit and and the whole day will be a pro for me:)

I’ve only been to Over Texas once, I’m headed back to hopefully pick up some credits that were closed in about 2 weeks. The homemade pickles at the bbq place are a standout for any 6 flags park. I love Mr Freeze. I cannot fault NTG it’s RMC’s first and I really prefer the Gerstlauer trains to the new RMC trains. They really do have a stand out collection of flat rides, I hadn’t realized! My one visit was on a cold rainy day and we literally rode everything that was open, returned the rental car early and flew to San Antonio to hit up Fiesta and Seaworld.

This is my home park and I agree it is disappointing a lot. But I feel like it is on an upwards curve for the next few years and has been getting better every time I visit it.

What I appreciate the most about this video is how you're classifying the coasters as you discuss them. Like how New Texas Giant is a steel hybrid and Titan is a hypercoaster. This in particular is super interesting to me. Were I a wealthy man I would definitely make it my life goal to visit every park I could on the planet.

Six Flags Over Texas… the location is insanely good! When you climb up the lift hill on Titan you have one of the best views! You can see the AT&T Stadium and both of the baseball stadiums. The Oil Derrick is really cool too! Six Flags Magic Mountain was my secondary park growing up and that tower there was NEVER opened, so being able to go up the oil Derrick at SFOT was a pleasant surprise to say the least! You have such amazing views up there! You can see both Fort Worth and Dallas from up there! Really cool! Great video! Keep it up!

We're going for the first time in 40 years next week! Thanks for the great review!

Man I love this place I go at least once a week

Pros: it has an RMC Cons: it’s doesn’t have Lil Phantom

This video brings back memories. I lived in Fort Worth for a few years growing up and my dad took me on Shock Wave for my first loop coaster. I was terrified but now I can never get enough of coasters

Shockwave is so underrated, it’s really good

Love Field, Chris. And love your videos. 🤗

Airtime thrills is the goat of coaster channels

I’ve gone to SixFlags over Texas twice and I really enjoy and I gonna be going again next week with my friend group and I’m so excited.

Yeah, that was the most busy I’ve ever seen over texas, loved the day though, great for photos.

I clicked so fast lol 😂 when u talk about my home park I just had to watch

Over the summer, I was on a road trip and came here on the way. We knew it was closed, but we had gone before and it was great to see these rides again. It also meant I got video of Aquaman Power Wave and was one of the first people to put that footage on KZfaq. Great experience.

I can officially say that my home park is the same quality as Chris home park. Great escape and frontier city

My favorite Six Flags of them all Six flags over Texas!!!!

Almost exactly a year ago, I visted the park with a friend who was a Six Flags employee by that time (but not at SFOT, she worked at what what you said will be your home Six Flags Park) - and I remember us going back and forth in circles to find the entrance to Shockwave - as that was what we, both being big Schwarzkopf fans, wanted to start our day with. Yes, that park's layout can really mess with you. :D When it comes to parking, I never had the luck to park close to the entrance, in fact we always had to park so far away that it may have been closer to walk to Fiesta Texas instead. ;-)

Grew up riding Shockwave, Runaway Mountain, Mine Train, a ton. There was also a 4D flight simulator kind of thing we went on alot when I was a kid, but it eventually got replaced with a 4D spongebob thing - I assume thats probably not a thing anymore, and I havent been to SF in at least 10 years. Been watching vids like these and its making me really want to go back to the park soon and ride all of the things I never had a chance to

I've been going to this park since 1967-1968. I could write a book on the rides and attractions it once had that are no longer there. I was 5 years old in 1967 and was lucky enough to have a Dad that enjoyed stuff like this. We went to the park 2-3 times a summer. Even with minimal lines back in the early days of the park, it would literally take you all day to explore the entire place. The big orange tower with the observation platform on top was a landmark I still remember. It also had a large free fall slide you could ride down on old burlap bags. Then there was the Riverboat ride, the Log Ride, The Spelunker's Cave and so many others I've forgotten the names of. One of the main attractions back then was the staged live action shootouts they had in the Texas area. They'd never have anything like that in this day and age because the gunshots were loud and sounded very real. When I got older, married and had children, I took them to the park just like my Dad took us, and did the same with my Grandkids.

Last time I was at Six Flags Over Texas at Arlington was June 1975!!! They had to close the gondola late in the date due to high winds!!! Texas sure is famous for its thunderstorms!!! Had a killer time!!!

This my home park thank you 😊

I live in Vegas so my home park is Magic Mountain in LA. Since california is still shut down had visit six flags over texas. This is my first six flags visit outside magic mountain. I really enjoyed this six flags. Over Texas is not on magic mountain level but still pretty good. Im looking to visit more six flags locations once more states open back up.

That park looks really fun, and I might want to go there soon. But right when COVID ends, my first park I will go to is magic mountain for the first time! Knotts berry farm is my home park but I will soon make magic mountain my home park once I go there a few times. I am so excited to go there hopefully March!😁

Six Flags Over Texas is my third favorite of the 5 main parks I've been to ahead of Six Flags Fiesta Texas and Six Flags America at 5 and 4 respectively it behind Six Flags Great America and Six Flags Magic Mountain at number 2 and 1 respectively. Hurricane Harbor across the street is one of my favorite water parks as well and both locations are a must do when in town.

Hell yea homie my home park got featured on this channel YEAAAA 😝

Great video! I would Love to visit here some day

Over Texas represent! (It needs so much more tho)

Was just there last week and I think it's a fair assessment - also had my first trip to Fiesta Texas which I think is better (not just location, but coaster collection) - only other unique credit at Over Texas that I think deserves mentioning is La Vibora - every time I ride it I can't believe it exists!

Just went there last week. It was great! The lines were only 2 minutes long and the rides were great! It could still have a few more thrill rides but otherwise I would recommend going!

Shockwave is probably one of the most pleasant surprises I've ever had on a coaster. It looks very basic and uninspired and the setting is awful. But it is SOOOOOOOOOO much better that is looks from off ride. The airtime really caught me off guard and the loops are fantastic. Texas Skyscreamer is the scariest ride I've ever been on. I haven't done the Orlando Starflyer or the rides at the Stratosphere but the Texas Skyscreamer terrifies me. The chains look like tiny necklaces. I know it's safe but I can't help being scared to death on that thing.

I visited in February of this year when I was in Texas visiting my best friend who moved to the Dallas/Forth Worth area. Unfortunetly Judge Roy Scream was closed because of the constructions and it was windy so all the tall rides closed a few times. Overall I felt like it was a fine park but with my home park being Hersheypark (on Knoebels) it definitely did not feel up to park with Hershey. Middle of the road is exactly right! Lol.

When I go to six flags in 2022, I will ride my first coaster that has a loop,it will be six flags over Texas!!!! I can't wait!!

I sat in the back of the Texas giant and it was crazy intense with the G-force. It was one of my favorites there.

I’ve been here so many times it almost feels like a second home. I know where everything is and I’ve ridden everything there. I love going there with my friends on the weekends too.

One of my favorite theme parks

SFOTexas is my home park. It's the original Six Flags park opening in 1961. I would say I would agree with you, a few more cons that pros, but I keep going back and have for over 50 years!

I went here once as a teenager in the 90s, and a couple more times while living in DFW. Unfortunately I've never been on Mr. Freeze, since it wasn't there yet in the mid 90s, and was closed for maintenance the other two times. This seems to be unfortunately common. I do love New Texas Giant though. I remember riding it in its original incarnation. It was one of the first coasters I ever rode. Agreed on Shockwave and Judge Roy Scream. Those are legit classics.

good video about my home park

SFOT's coaster lineup, IMO, has 3 major problems: 1: Every coaster is either intense, rough, or disorienting. Batman, Freeze, Shock Wave, and Titan are positive G monsters, which not everyone likes or can tolerate. Judge Roy, La Vibora, and the Mine Trains are rough, which not everyone likes or can tolerate. Pandemonium and Joker spin, and Runaway Mountain takes place in pitch black. These rides are potentially very disorienting, and again, not everyone likes this or can tolerate it. The only roller coaster that somewhat bucks this trend is New Texas Giant, but even then, many members of the GP don't enjoy strong ejector airtime. 2: A majority of the coasters are small, short (in duration, not necessarily height), and low capacity. New Texas Giant is big and has a great ride duration, but the capacity is absolutely abysmal. I did some quick napkin math, and I think Giant often runs at less than 500 riders per hour. This is only exacerbated by how many skip-the-line passes the park gives out/sells, which can double the wait times for the regular line. 3: The layouts of most of the coasters at the park are either cloned or uninteresting. As much as I love New Texas Giant, the layout really consists of only the first drop, 3 overbanks, and 12 airtime hills. Shock Wave also has a very basic layout with two loops and 4 airtime hills. The only inversions in the park are the 5 on Batman, Shock Wave's two loops, Freeze's inverted top hat, and whatever you can get on Joker. It's not all bad, though. One great strength of the park is the number of unconventional coaster types available. There is a spinning coaster, a 4D free spin, an indoor coaster, a bobsled, an invert, a custom Schwarzkopf looper, a classic wooden coaster, an RMC, and the park is about to add a multi-launching water coaster. Not all of these coaster types are uncommon, but not too many parks have this much variety. This is really only an advantage if SFOT is your home park, but it is an advantage nonetheless. There are a few key additions that I think would solve most of the problems with the park's coaster lineup while building on its strengths: 1: A conventional looping coaster. Your idea of relocating Scream to SFOT makes so much sense that it almost hurts to think about it. Scream is a pretty typical layout for a B&M floorless, but it would add tremendously to the park's variety of inversions and provide a reliable and high capacity ride that is longer and less intense than Batman. It wouldn't be the enthusiast's pick, but it would be a hit with the GP and very beneficial for the park. 2. A floater airtime machine. A B&M hyper may be a longshot, but a man can dream can't he? Even a small scale version like La Ronde's Goliath would be a great addition, and this would better fit within Six Flags' budget and be less intimidating to the GP. Much like Scream, this would have broad appeal, be reliable, and have high capacity. It would also address the park's lack of floater airtime, and space wouldn't be an issue, as it could be built over top of the parking lot. 3. A themed, multi-launching coaster. Busch Gardens Tampa has Cheetah Hunt, Carowinds has Copperhead Strike, Universal Orlando has Hagrid's, and Magic Mountain has West Coast Racers. I believe this is the new wave for the Amusement industry. Some are more intense than others. Some are better themed than others, but they all have relatively broad appeal and unique layouts that draw crowds. To my knowledge, they have all been very successful additions for their respective parks. The dueling/racing aspect of West Coast Racers is an added bonus, and something similar would be a great addition to SFOT. Also, if the park decides to remove Roaring Rapids, imagine how great it would be to fly through that rock work on a coaster like this. It would basically be prebuilt theming. 4. A large scale RMC Raptor. A Jersey Devil clone or something similar would be a great complement to New Texas Giant. Stronger, more sustained ejector hills, along with inversions (especially a zero G stall or 2) would give this coaster all the goodness that newer RMCs have that Giant does not. 5. An S&S Axis Coaster. Need I say more? ...When I began this comment, I had no idea it would be this long... Props to anyone who actually reads the entire thing, LOL.

NTG surpassed my expectations! It’s a midtier RMC out of the 11 I’ve been on. Judge Roy Scream is an underrated woodie with its airtime! I loved La Víbora’s aggressiveness 😂 I agree some coasters are hard to find. The one visit I had here, the guests were kinda rough...also didn’t appreciate the single rider back seat policy at all...I was moved out of the back seat on NTG and Shockwave without any explanation so had to experience them closer to the middle of the train.

this is on my bucket list, especially titan and new Texas giant.

That food at 3:18 is what I am like 90% sure i got in 2018, and THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME!!! Mine might've has cheese, though.

This is also my home away from home six flags park too, I was there last Tuesday but I live in Chicago!

Just visited for the first time less than a month ago, this was my biggest surprise Six Flags park. I actually think they have a very solid top 5 coasters and the park as a whole looks a lot better than most of the Six Flags parks I've been to. The only real con was there was construction on I-30 at the park so finding the entrance to the parking lot was difficult.

It was 2005 when I went as a teenager, I'd love to go back but these days I'd be way more interested in going to Fiesta Texas. Its like between 2005 and today, Fiesta has surpassed SFOT in its roller coaster collection. Which I never would have guessed would happen.

This is my home park and all I have to say is I agree with your opinions. They need that coaster that's going to make them stand out from Fiesta texas

I went to sfot last month. I really liked it and expected a huge fun time, but things didn’t really go as planned. When we first arrived, we went to the Spain/Mexico section. We rode conquistador for a warm up, which was actually more scary than I expected. Then we rode El Diablo, it had a very short ride wait time, and was very thrilling. And then we went to La Vibora. In my opinion, if any ride needs to go or get fixed, it’s La Vibora. The wait time was almost 3 hours for a shaggy old short ride that is so rough that you will repeatedly hit your body when the cart turns. I liked it then, but now it’s just a waste of time and money. We went to look around for food, and yes it was amazing. We were going to go to the Superman, but right as we were about to get on, the park was like “hey, we should close all the rides because of some rain” Which was stupid bc the storm was over the airports and the lightning was nowhere near us. So for some reason we all decided to go back to the left side of the park for shelter. Basically almost wasted $600 to walk around the park and get turned away from the good rides. Solid 3/5

JB’s bbq sandwiches are pretty solid. Also just past JB’s walking away from Runaway Mountain, there’s an ice cream joint where for only $2 you can use your meal pass snack and get an awesome milk shake

this is my home park too. I agree that the park seems neglected. Me and my brother joke about it every time we visit. Seems like every time there are always a couple coasters down for maintenance. I will say that the batman is my favorite ride at the park. I miss being able to go.

ive been to over texas probably about 4 times? i’m going again in 2 days but unlike all the other times i’m actually not terrified of coasters. There’s definitely a lot of cons with the park and you captured pretty much all of them. even after going all the time i still get lost.

I loved Texas Ginat because it was my first RMC. Mr. Freeze is just awesome and never talked about honestly Mr. freeze and joker are the 2 best rides at that park.

This is my home park and probably the one I know the best. My thoughts pretty much line up with yours with a few exceptions. Judge Roy Scream is in dire need of a makeover (track, structure, etc.) for it is falling apart. The music mill amphitheater takes up space that could be used for a major attraction (new coaster comes to mind) as foes the go karts. With Texas Live and other music venues across the way there is no real need for an amphitheater. Now a few cool additions: the looney tunes dark ride is being restored back to the spelunkers cave (with a pirate theme) and they restored the Casa Magnetica (fun house). Both are small attractions but still cool to experience. As someone who grew up in the north visiting Cedar Point regularly, I do find similar charm with this Six Flags park (probably because of its history) and have grown fond of it since moving to the DFW area in 89. BTW, I may have commented on this before but I have slept since then and it keeps popping up in my feed. Anyway thanks for video and look forward to more.

The Mack PowerSplash may surprise you in a positive sense. I myself was not impressed when Walibi Belgium did present their new ride for 2016 - a water coaster named 'Pulsar'. But after I had ridden it, I had to admit that this specific water coaster is pure fun.

There’s one more pro. Six Flags over Texas is a year-round park. This is my home park and I appreciate the Texas food. The bbq is a nice touch.

Pros: they are great videos Cons: i've never been to a six flags park

Pro tips about finding things: NTG: When entering the park, take a left. When you reach Spain and the chicken place, take a right into the Texas area. Then, go left until you find the bridge taking you to the entrance plaza area. Or, you could go to Runaway Mountain, go through the JB’s smokehouse, and take the little path near Rodeo, into the smoking area, up the hill and to the ride. Runaway Mountain: When you enter the park, take a right into the Looney Toons section. Keep going until you see the sign for France by the bathrooms, lemonade, and All American. Go into France. Continue down the path to the Southern Palace Theater and it will be right there. Shockwave: You can do two things. You can take the path for Runaway Mountain but keep going through the smokehouse. Take a right and continue passed the defunct Yosemite Sam ride until you reach the tower. Then, travel behind it and continue. Or, upon entering the park, take a right into USA, keep going straight until you reach the mine trains. Turn left and head to the tower section. You can take a shortcut through the Superman entrance and the Cheesesteaks restaurant. Continue until you reach the observation tower, then go behind it. Judge Roy: Upon entering, go through the USA section and take a right when you get to the Boomtown section (Mine trains) like you are going to Gotham. Once in Gotham, you can Either A: Take the little side path next to the Majestic theater to reach the plaza B: Go up the stairs with the green railing next to the Sky Screamer entrance to the plaza

SFOT has always been my home park I’ve been a season pass holder since 2015! I go about six times a year that includes Hurricane Harbor! My advice is to go to hurricane Harbor during the hot summer months with only hopping over the the main park only for the water rides and go to the theme park side during the fall, winter, and spring months

Pros: Batman Clone + Old school Schwarzkopf looper+ RMC woodie cons: weather is too damn hot, plus the MCBR on Titan bringing you to a dead stop!

I visited in ‘02 and the layout is very funky. I was part of a group that split up and I was the only one to find the Looney Tuned dark ride on day one of two.

This is my home park. I don’t go very often because the maintenance is lacking, but I’d be willing to give it another try.

I didn’t realize you were in Oklahoma until I watched this video. We’re also in Oklahoma!

i grew up here. glad it’s still running well, and i love every second when i go. but i do wish it had some more coasters so the popularity would skyrocket again and ensure the park’s stability, as it was a huge part of my childhood and i would hate to see it shut down

Imo the way to fix the HH and SFOT being separate problem, they need a transport attraction that goes over the freeway and connects to the 2 parks, or even a new bridge that connects them

I agree with the coaster lineup and where I place them between New England and Over Georgia. There’s a lot of classic rides, but I think there’s a need to modernize just a little bit more.

My heart lies with Fiesta Texas being from San Antonio but I've always love making a weekend trip up to DFW to spend a day or two at SFOT.

Summer heat gets very hot. Hyper coaster is awesome because of its unique layout that makes it different than most other hypers.

You weren't supposed to talk about the loaded nuggets... one of the best parts about them is the line is always short 😂

Hey Airtime, guess what. SFOT had a new park president a while back and he used to work with Fiesta Texas and St Louis. So this means that SFOT is heading a bright future ahead.

This is my home park as well. I rank it number 4th after Magic Mountain, Great America and Great Adventure. We definitely need a new good coaster! I've want to see a wing coaster here for the longest. Maybe the new Axes coaster from S&S or an B&M Dive coaster

Six Flags Over Texas is amazing even though i do have to go on airplane to get there its still one of my favorite Six Flags

Hey! When are you planning on coming back down to texas? If you have any idea. I am a smaller youtuber gaining popularity in the six flags fiesta texas crowd, I even made it onto screamscape which is cool, but i feel like seeing you at the park and getting all those peeps off the airtime thrills searches would be amazing. But mainly we missed each other when I was in california a couple years ago which was unfortunate, but you seem like a super cool guy to see and talk to and I would love to show you how to have a great time at fiesta texas since you didn't last time. Anyways hope your having a great day.

My home park!

The right side of the park where you said the "newer" stuff is located was the USA section from the beginning until the Looney Toons folks took over. It had a "modern" car ride called Happy Motoring, a scrambler called "The Missile Chaser" and a mouse coaster called "Sidewynder" along with some exhibits. The Boomtown section was added in 1963. Hurricane Harbor was not a part of Six Flags in its beginning. The water park originally opened in the 1980's as Wet N Wild. Six Flags purchased the water park in 1997. That's why it's not connected to the amusement park. To help you out... go through Mexico and Spain, turn left at the Crazy Horse Saloon... cross the bridge and your at the NTG. The sign to the picnic pavilions has Titan written right over it. For Runaway Mountain.... Turn right at the Crazy Horse Saloon and keep on that main street. You'll run right into it. The Shock Wave's line is short because it's not new... it's been there since 1978.... not because of its location. It's one of the easiest ones to find.... it's at the base of the tower. Your statement about NTG potentially being another Steel Vengeance.... It's kinda hard to be another coaster that hasn't been built yet. If it wasn't for the NTG, there would be no Steel Vengeance. There's a lot of things you are not taking into consideration when calling this a "middle of the road" park.. way too much to mention here.

It's crazy how much history each ride has.
