Thank you all for OVER 100K views!!! This is BY FAR the best any video has ever done on my channel, I really appreciate the love and support! Let me know what videos you wanna see in the future in this thread 👇

As a Great America regular, all comments check out correctly. Raging Bull is my clear favorite though. It’s a super long ride with tons of fun with a line that actually moves fairly quickly. Love the experience

It’s awesome to see another Six Flags park ranking! You did a phenomenal job and I appreciate anyone willing to make a long analysis of each park. I would definitely put Great America and Over Texas higher, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that you did a great job here.

In my opinion, Great America deserves to be in the top three. In addition to having a great lineup of really thrilling rides, there's plenty for the whole family to do. My four-year-old can get on over 30 rides in the park including five roller coasters. That is really saying something.

This is a great ranking video, I love how detailed your analysis is. I’ve only been to two Six Flags parks, Magic Mountain and America, but I hope to get out to the Texas ones next. I never realized how crazy MM’s lineup was until I started going to other parks, it’s STACKED!

Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America is my favorite ride. It is also basically the same ride as Goliath in Magic Mountain. The only noticeable difference between the two sequence wise are the first drops after the initial climb. Raging Bull has a very tiny drop right after the first climb.

I’m a bit biased for St. Louis, my hometown park and current workplace. I fully agree that St. Louis could 100% be a mid-to-high-tier park with a few new good additions. Fortunately for us, it seems corporate took notice, and a lot of love is going into the park right now. We’re getting our first brand new ground up coaster since American Thunder in 2008 (awesome addition despite just being a Vekoma family coaster), lots of renovations of obviously aging buildings and infrastructure, and general improvements in the in-park experience, new paint, landscaping, etc. We’re all hoping and praying for RMC Boss, I personally believe it would make SFSL a must visit destination.

Nice job! This video was well made and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Keep up the good work, Matt :)

Great Adventure is my home park, figured I’d add a bit to your opinions! I completely agree with nearly everything said; however, Nitro, when it’s running fast, is insane. The helix makes most people who aren’t “coaster people” grey out. I even had one the other week, and Intimidator 305 did nada to me. Green Lantern deserves its hate; I usually avoid it whenever I go. It’s one of the better stand-ups, but it’s just a model I don’t enjoy. I thought up until recently that Jersey Devil was pretty lackluster compared to the original Raptors (I haven’t made it to Magic Mountain yet) until I was blessed with a front row ride last week. Blown away by how wild and forceful it was, I recommend it. Skull Mountain used to be a well-themed, fun ride when the building was dark, and they had effects. There haven’t been the eerie noises on the lift, the jack-o-lanterns, the strobes, the blacklit tiki faces, or the giant skull with red eyes for years. I don’t know how they haven’t fixed any; probably not a priority but the rides basically nothing at the moment. Also, I believe Premier Rides made Runaway Mountain, and Intamin made Skull Mountain. Both opened the same year and have similar themes but differ in many ways. The Dark Knight used to have an excellent pre-show video and way more working theming and sounds on the actual ride, but it is still in far better condition than the Skull Mountain effects. I miss that train to the right at the final brake run, though. P.S. El Toro is smoother and faster than ever. The beast is back, haha Great Video; somehow, the first of yours, I’ve been recommenced. I loved the insight and opinions on every park! Still have yet to make it to all of them, currently focusing on Cedar Fair and Sea World parks.

I went to Six Flags New England on opening day this year, and all the coasters that were open were running fast!Not only were they running fast, but not or the trims or midcourse brakes were on! I got ejector air on the Pandemonium clone! Superman ran so fast and gave such good air, the person next me thought they broke thier ass on it! Hope they run this good the rest of the season!

thank you so much for giving tatsu love! she's my #1 coaster and I feel like she's often overlooked for more intense rides 💖 your list was super fair and I totally agree with your top three!

Very great video. Learned a lot and you really recapped each park well. You earned a subscriber and a like. Keep it up.

Nice video….my biggest problem with your rankings though is that it’s all based on the coasters….flat rides, water rides, theming, food, operations, dark rides, etc should all be factored in to the overall quality of a park….which is why my top 3 are different from yours.

That pretzel loop on Tatsu never fails to black me out. But oh man that is such a great ride

I haven't been to Six Flags Over Georgia in almost a decade. But if he'd visited the park when the first Cyclone was there, this would probably be way lower on the list. That was one of my favorites as a kid, but as an adult it felt really, really rough. I dont know if it was due to wear and tear, or I just had more body to get tossed around. And if he thought Blue Hawk was rough, don't even get me started on the neck-snapping concussion machine preceding it that was Ninja, where you just heard everybody around you screaming "OW" and "OOF" the entire ride. Most days, you would see the Scream Machine queue line filled up while the poor Ninja nearby was almost always empty. The only reason I would ever reride it was when I was bored and either didn't feel like waiting in line for Superman or Goliath or risk kicking somebody's head off on Batman. And the ride was always a totally miserable experience. You spent the entire climb up bracing yourself, not for speed, excitement, G-force, or airtime, but for the pain that was about to ensue. Your head was like a pinball, your body being repeatedly slammed into the restraints. I still wish I could ride it one more time, though. Its awfulness is what made it special, lol.

another amazing video bro. As much as i love the golden days with that $2 mic, the quality now is definitely appreciated! Also loved the extended explanations and the fact that we finally agreed on something for once lol 💀

I loved your thoughtful narration and insights!

Great video! I’ve been to Great America (my home park) and Great Adventure, love both. Definitely want to make it to Magic Mountain at some point

This is the best ranking of six flags parks I’ve seen. I’ve been to the top two parks and love both of them and agree that Magic Mountain is overall the better park. Another reason is setting and weather. I feel Valencia has better weather, terrain, trees, theming, etc. Thanks for the video!

A few weeks ago Six Flags Over Texas changed Mr. Freeze. The right side launches forward and the left side launches backwards.

I personally love Six Flags Fiesta Texas but I live in San Antonio so it's close to home. Thanks so much for the rankings and your impressions because i am a thrill ride junkie and now this makes me want to see what the other parks have to offer

The reason why Great Escape is so unique is that it was originally built in the 1950s as Storytown USA. If you look at 1:42 of the video, you can see the sign in the foreground reads, "Storytown Train Station" and is a callback to the Great Escape's history. When it was opened it was themed after mostly Mother Goose nursery rhymes. This is why the park has the big shoe, and the little houses for kids to go in and out of, and even an Alice in Wonderland walkthrough attraction. Totally understand why a coaster enthusiast would rate it in last place, but from a family perspective this place should be close to the top.

I really like some of the flat rides at Great Escape which I wish you had mentioned. They have a really fast indoor scrambler, the new extremely thrilling adirondack outlaw ride, a nice double drop tower, and a few other great supporting rides

They just did a major retracking on Predator, so that is why it wasn't so rough when you rode it. Motocoaster surprised the hell out of us when we rode it the first time. The launch is shockingly powerful. I was expecting a gentle family coaster launch but it is quite intense.

For SFOG, they are debuting a launch coaster called the Georgia Surfer for 2024. It's an Intamin Ultra Surf coaster that combines both the Mack Power Splash and Intamin Half Pipe, which was revealed at their Coaster Fest presentation back in August. The water effects is the main highlight of the attraction in which the park can customize however they like it

Having only been to Over Georgia (it being my home park) and Over Texas (though that was 30 years ago), I was glad to see Georgia where it was on the list. Surprised you weren't crazy about the Cyclone, as that's one of my favorites. Still, I agree about the Scorcher: it's good but not remarkable. Goliath definitely sits in my top three, along with Cyclone and Superman/Batman (yeah, that makes it top four technically, but still). I feel like it could use a new coaster (maybe some sort of indoor, Green Lantern-themed coaster ala Guardians of the Galaxy at Epcot?), but I still love what's there. Glad to see how Kid Flash does, as I've got little one that are just too short to ride the big boys. Great video!

I really want to get out to fiesta texas! It’s ride lineup has gotten crazy over the years especially with the addition with a dive coaster which rounds it out and gives it another unique ride. And a floorless and two rmcs? Can’t go wrong right?

Tatsu is my favorite coaster ever. Better than any RMC. When I was younger, my dad rode it and he was complaining about how terrible and unsafe it felt, so I wasn't expecting much, but it blew me away and is my favorite ride. X2 is great, and a solid #2 pick, but only if both the audio and fire are working. It's less than 50 seconds after the chain lift and unless the music and fire are on, I feel cheated waiting for 2 hours to get on. Twisted Colossus is better than X2 if only 1 or neither effects are working. Also, Roar at SFA is not bad if you ride in the middle. The front is boring and the back is rough, but the middle is fun.

I've only ever been so Discovery Kingdom so I came here to see where you ranked it and I'm so happy that someone agrees with me about Kong. Everyone I've ever talked to loves Kong despite how painful and rough it is but I hate it.

I’m a person who hates rollercoasters and is not a thrill seeker is any way. I’ve only been forced into going to six flags once, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that the single park I’ve been to, magic mountain, was the one you ranked #1! I somehow survived X2 when I went there and colossus and tatsu were definitely my favorites, I never believed I could enjoy rollercoasters that intense until I went on those rides. I hated viper, way too rough and not enjoyable at all, really freaked me out as it was the second coaster I went on that day 😭 by the time I went on tatsu, x2, and twisted collosus I was desensitized I think lol and they were a lot more enjoyable. Nice video!

Pretty informative. Would really like to check out Six Flags NE. In addition, lived out in SoCal for 8 years and never made Magic Mountain. Currently in Texas. Just spent two days at Over Texas. And next month, headed back to Fiesta Texas and Sea World. Good video! 👍🏼👍🏼

At over Georgia, the ride staff on twisted cyclone yelled at me and my sister for their mistake, very rude. But, I still really like this park and I really enjoyed my day there

On the road runner's express at fiesta texas, as of like 3 years ago there was a massive cartoon boulder they had dangling over the track with Wylie cyote I think after it rises up from the first big drop and interacts with the cliffside on a turn. It always looked like it was just about to fall on top of you as it passed the elements like that are what elevated that ride and most of them at fiesta texas for me. Edit: the roadrunner's express was the coaster for me when I was a kid made me not afraid of roller coasters anymore Even the shows were awesome too if you ever get to see them like the fireworks and laser light shows they have them on the cliffsides and using the waterfalls for it too and such

Coasters with BRAT!!

While it hurts my soul to see my local park rank second to last, I can’t exactly argue with what you said lollll. It’s a fun place, but it’s not big on the thrill seeker type of thing lol. The biggest problem most locals have is that when Six Flags bought the park, they raised the prices without changing or improving anything. This isn’t exactly the wealthiest part of the country, so the price boost brought tickets out of the budget for a lot of locals. If they fixed up the place or added new things then I might consider it, but not as it is now.

alpine bobsled was closed at sfge because apparently, it's shutting down on September 4th! R.I.P Alpine Bobsled, 1998 - 2023. Gone, but not forgotten.

Just subscribed. Love the detail. I have a soft spot for SFA but it definitely is a super temperamental park. You got it on a good day, I've been a bunch but if my last visit was my only stop at the park I would have hated it. 5 coasters were down including Batwing which broke down on me twice while I was on the train waiting to leave the station

Great video! I have only been to Great Adventure.

Of all the Six Flags parks I've been, my favorite is Six Flags Magic Mountain, followed by Six Flags Great America, Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Over Georgia, Six Flags New England, Six Flags America, and Six Flags Fiesta Texas. The reason why Fiesta Texas was at the back of my ist wasn't the parks fault but mainly because my visit was a disappointment as I went during March of 2013 meaning Iron Rattler wasn't open yet, the waterpark was closed, and the wait lines were way too long. I hope to get back there soon and have a much better experience one day.

Great video. Thanks Matt!

As a discovery kingdom goer Medusa is one of my favorites but of course I haven’t left the state so I can’t exactly talk even though I wish I could, but I have gone to every park in the state

Is El Toro functional again? Last time I was at great adventure (around october last year) it was shut down cuz it derailed.

I’ve been too Magic Mountain, Discovery Kingdom, and Mexico and that’s also the order I put them in personally on how fun I had there and the rollercoaster thrills

From what I've been to, I would say: 1) Great Adventure 2) Fiesta Texas 3) Over Texas 4) New England 5) America Hoping to get to Great America and Over Georgia this year

I have to agree with your opinion about six flags discovery kingdom. Luckily, the flash ride was open, and it actually broke down while I was in the seat so that was interesting. But other than that, I was able to ride all the coasters there! My favorite would probably have to be Medusa because it is the longest ride there topping off at about 3 minutes. It isn't the best six flags out there, but it is still good. I went on Kong a few years ago and it wasn't the best. It hurt a lot. That is probably the reason why it has been shut down for a while now. Superman was fun, the Joker is absolutely amazing! The first drop makes you feel like you're about to pass out. The wonder woman was sadly closed on that day but when I went a few years back I was able to get on it and wow what a rush! The Batman was okay. I only managed to get 1 full flip. But other than that, it was a good wake-up call. Overall I loved this park and I would love to go to in again at some point!

Great list!

Enjoyed the video. I'm kinda new to this and just visited Over Georgia for the first time. Goliath...not my favorite, shakier then others I've ridden like Mako or Shambala but Superman, that was great, best ride in the park for me, barely beat out Monster Mansion ;) Probably wind up a America next.

Over Texas is easily one of the best six flags parks. “Doesn’t have that one unique coaster.” Because it has one of the best overall lineups. Any ride you want is there. Didn’t hate on the list until that

joker’s layout fits the DC villain so well, if this doesnt fit joker’s personality, i dont know what will. super unique and it also has multi-colored rails. i love joker.

X2 felt like my back broke, should've gone to the hospital LMAO 108 degrees that day too!

ive been to magic mountain 8 times and its so fun, west coast racers is my favorite coaster by far, x2 is also rlly fun.

I've only ever been to Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom! Sadly, it's no longer a Six Flags park! I definitely wanna check out these parks though thanks to your video!

i totally agree with number one! I have been to Magic mountain so many times that I cant even count it! This park is very intense and has so many amazing rides. I would say all of their rollercoasters have a thrill to it. A really underated ride here is Crazanity. It is an amazing ride that swings back and forth at high intensity speeds till you are almost upside down. Me and my friends all get terrified on this but always one of our favorites' when we go.

so glad other people agree with me on the ranking of Six Flags New England

SFOG is my home SF park and they have a solid collection of roller coasters. They're getting ready to open their world's first ultra surf coaster as their 2024 edition and also a dueling single rail coaster this year. It's considered one of SF's favorite parks in the chain and has been giving the park a lot of love with these investments

What an excellent video,I throughly enjoyed it EXCEPT you didn't mention their respective cities.."GeeMom we going to magic mountain in Tennessee "

The number 1 Six Flag Park is DEFINITELY Magic Mountain 💯 Great America, Great Adventures, and Fiesta Texas make up the rest of the top 4. What order you olace them in is personal preference at that point.

I was kinda surprised by the rating of twisted cyclone at over Georgia. It’s short but intense, though I probably wouldn’t wait more than about 30 minutes for it and being so close to the front of the park it can have a long line. Wouldn’t call it my favorite though. I’d put Superman ultimate flight at the top, Goliath at 2nd, Batman at 3rd & dare devil dive at 4th which I didn’t even see you mention. The rest are pretty on par with each other

The Flash at Discovery Kingdom has literally been closed for a few years now. I'm really hoping I can get on it soon because I haven't been able to my last two visits. 3 visits ago however, it was running and my stupid self decided not to ride it because I assumed it would be open next time.

On the bucket list... touring Coaster parks US (on one season pass)

I’ve been to Great Adventure about 15 times but never to any of the other six flags parks. Do any of the other ones have a drive thru safari??

Great escape was my first last year going to great adventure,new England and Busch gardens Williamsburg this year

As a SoCal resident and a season passholder at Magic Mountain, I would have to agree with you on your choice! I mean, it does have 20...er 16 big coasters to choose from, which is more than any other six flags or amusement park in the world! Which a lot of them at one point have held some place in the guinness book of world records. So its hard not to have Magic Mountain at number one. I've only been to one other six flags in Georgia, and I'll actually be going to Six Flags Mexico next week so we'll see how that goes. As far as your ranking on Magic Mountain coasters....I agree with you...almost. I think X2 and Twisted Colossus are a tie for #1 with Tatsu at #2 and Wonder Woman at #3. I've been on Twisted when it was dueling at it made it that much more awesome! And the fact that you pretty much get to go around twice is the cherry on top. Every time I've gone on X2, the line is a nightmare, or they always only have 1 train, or it breaks down. Yes, it is awesome, and there isn't anything like it, but with how long the wait is EVERY TIME i've gone, sometimes its not even worth waiting for. Other than that, great video man! Now you'll have to rank every Cedar Fair park 😎

Ive only ever been to great adventure but ive seen videos throughout youtube for rollercoasters so id say this is a good list.

Glad to see Great America so high! Max Force and Superman use to be Iron Wolf and Shockwave though: both were way better than the new two.

25:25 YEAAAH WOOOOO LITTLE DIPPER MY FIRST "ROLLERCOASTER" RAHHHHH (My first "real" rollercoaster was Tornado at Adventureland, Iowa.)

Ive only been to 2 six flags parks Magic which is my home park and Discovery Kingdom which was still marine world when i went so its been a hot minute since ive been. I defiantly would love to visit other Six flags parks some day.

The ones that talk down on SFMM Goliath are younger than the coaster.. it opened in 2000!!! Around the same time as Superman the escape. That time was about record breaking stats not efficiency and airtime

Yo thanks for making New England 5 like New England gets no attention not just six flags but the area in general very underrated

X2 is the only roller coaster I ever ridden where I kept my eyes closed and screamed the whole time.

My Six Flags is Darien Lake. The Superman was always the first one to hit on field trip days otherwise you would be in line for hours. It use to run two trains, but I think they had to reduce it do to the accident. I do know that they changed they changed the restraint system. As for the MotorCoaster, it's fun, but nothing with write home to. It was originally called OCC MotorCoaster due to a team up with Orange County Choppers (American Choppers). My Top three is Superman, Predator, and Viper only because I haven't been there in years.

I loved Great Escape when it was just Great Escape and not owned by Six Flags. There's so much more that that ride has to offer than just the 4 coasters listed. It used to be really well run, but once Six Flags took it over, they ruined it and stopped caring about anything that wasn't a typical "Six Flags" ride (if that makes sense). It used to offer so much more back before Six Flags took it over and rebranded it all.

Nice to see Frontier city shuttle loop..finally relocated from great adventure lighting loops after the tragic accident..frontier city got the other track not in the incident

I live about 20 minutes away from Six Flags Great Adventure

Darien Lake's Ride of Steel coaster used to have two trains. I remember when they first built that one when it used to be called "Superman Ride of Steel" there was a red and a blue train. Darien Lake has had a rough history. Bought out by Six Flag's in the early 2000s, then Six Flags dropped them which is where it lost the "Superman" title, then re-bought by Six Flags.

shocked at over texas placement . that park roller coaster line up is just mind blowing mainly bc all there coasters are GOOD . other then parks like magic mountain and great adventure that has a lot of coasters but some of them are hugely forgettable.Over texas theming and overall experience is better then most six flags park. Def a top 5 for sure

Kong at Discovery Kingdom was my first ride with an inversion😂 what a pick

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the fact that this guy has liked and/or replied to EVERY SINGLE COMMENT? + respect.

I’ve only been to Great Adventure, America and New England. I hope to get to Over Georgia, and Great America soon

I've been to both Six Flags Over Texas and Six Flags Fiesta and I prefer Over Texas personally. Like you said it comes down to personal opinion, but for me I don't like upside down coasters so all the coasters with multiple loops and corkscrews aren't ride able so that doesn't leave many options for me at Fiesta. I do agree that Fiesta is prettier with the rock quarry, but ride wise it's worse for me.

Glad you thought SFGAm is a premier park! Goliath's turnarounds for me delivered floater, and we really do need a new coaster soon, maybe a RMC raptor. I honestly disagree with how raging bull is a weaker hyper, as I've ridden Intimidator (carowinds), and Mako. Raging bull for me delivers floater on every turn, and even some whip going into the mid course. I got raging bull ranked as my favorite ride in the park as I've been on steel vengeance and lightning rod.

Darien Lake is my home six flags park, and let me tell you, the moto coaster has me in physical pain after I ride it bc of these weird behind-the-back restraints that pin you to the front of the seat.

Damondback from Frontier City came from Six Flags Great Adventure when it was Lightnin Loops.

i went to the one in dallas, and the aqua man ride was fun

I was pleasantly surprised with New England being in the top 5, it’s my local park so I’m bias but other coasters in the other parks look so much cooler then new englands

I just subbed. Magic mountain will always be my home park , I am 61 and was there at the grand opening. MM used to be a really unsafe park with a police station onsite. And there was a bad smell around revolution. And the food always sucked.

Worth noting the cyclone at Six flags over Georgia was so much better when it was an all wooden coaster before it was remodeled.

ROFL, when a Vekoma boomerang is your second best ride, you know something has gone very, very wrong.

Great America is my local park, I love it to death. Nice to see it get scored pretty high.

Great adventure ahh..the memories. Used to live an hour away from it in NJ. Some im pretty biased when it comes to any other park, not just six flags lol. I mean how can you beat Nitro?! That will always be my #1 ever.

Not gonna lie riddlers revenge at six flags new england is a bad ass ride loved it

Six flags over Texas is my hometown park and, by default, my favorite park. I am particularly nostalgic for Runaway Mountain, but the best ride, in my opinion, is the new Texas giant. Tons of fun. I did visit six flags over Georgia this year and was surprised to hear the comments about the Georgia scorcher. It was my favorite ride in the park. Twisted Cyclone, however... that was a beating. If I ever go again, I'll be skipping that one for sure. I have also visited six flags Fiesta Texas and was able to visit six flags astroworld just before it closed, but those visits were about 20 years ago, so no standout memories for those.

Scream machine sfog almost broke my back lol

great video

I have the opposite experience when it comes to Vekoma Flying Dutchman roller coasters. I need to visit SFA. Kings Island is one of my home parks so I was able to ride Firehawk a lot. I loved it in its prime. Imo, Nighthawk is good. It’s my 5th favorite at Carowinds.

Yess thank you for putting six flags New England top 5 that’s my fav to

24:05 bro tried to sneak in Maxx Force

Magic Mountain, Great America, Great Adventure... West, Central, East...

Only came to see where over Georgia was ranked. How is Georgia scorcher a bad ride? It’s probably the smoothest stand up coaster.

When were you at SFNE? Ever since COVID shutdown Wicked Cyclone has been insanely fast. Before 2020 the 3rd lap would be a struggle back to the station. Now the whole ride feels like a sped up version of Steel Vengeance's 2nd half. I rode WWGLC last yearfor the first time...and yeah it was rough. Easily the roughest RMC ive ever ridden. Since its the oldest im wondering if RMC is seeing the longevity of these single rails are not what they expected and might be why you havent seen any rumoured T-Rex models. Also, prior to last year Nitro was awesome. It dragged ass last year. In fact, every B&M hyper felt slow last year ESPECIALLY Nitro and Candymonium. Mako and Diamondback were hauling tho.
