Roller coaster
Minimum height to ride: 54 inches

About Tatsu

This B&M Flying Coaster hugs the terrain around Samurai Summit at speeds up to 62 mph. The ride features four inversions, a 124-foot pretzel loop, a 103-foot flat spin, 96-foot-tall zero-G roll and a 360-degree inline roll over. It's a very smooth and popular ride. Ride very early or the line will get very long. trust me -- Last edited by Timothy Berg

I expected this to be a lot faster and scarier than it was. It actually wasnt that fast or scary (in my opinion) but it was super fun. It really does feel like you're flying. awesome ride. - Chloe !

9/10... wish it would of been longer. It has great spead and the largest prezil loop of its kind. I like it alot, okay themeing, and fits great in the enviornment, just needs more twists. BUT... it has {area} comforters. good job on that SIX FLAGS!!! - Mateo sams

The one and only best coaster in the park. no where else can you fly like superman while looking over the rest of the park. OUTSTANDING. the pretzel loop is the best. YOU HAVE TO GO ON THIS RIDE IF YOU EVER VISIT SIX FLAGS, MAGIC MOUNTIAN.6/5, 11/10 - Timothy Berg

Nothing like it that I have ever seen. Amazing. - Archibald Talbot

My favorite ride in the park. The ride is well paced, exciting, and intense without being nauseating. It's also very comfortable and gives a very unique sensation. - Josh Bishop

best ride in the park no doubt smooth perfect ride 10/10 - Michael Brunson

I love Tatsu!!!!!! It is the best ride ever!!! Nothing is wrong with the awesome Tatsu! I love just as much as X2! I love the flying sensation. Tatsu is the fastest, tallest flying coaster in the world. - Sarah Meeks

This ride is very overrated, not intense enough for me but, the flying experience is fun i do enjoy the pretzel loop. - Nicholas Kalscheuer

10/10 It is the BEST ride I have ever been on. My friend told me that the 2 hr. line is worth it, but I didn't believe him, so we waited, and it was COMEPLETELY WORTH IT!!! This is a must ride for ANYONE going to SFMM!!! - Corey Nelson

Very good, but it lacks re-ridability. - Jacob Sundstrom

this ride is the most craziest coaster ever! when we hit the inverion my friend yelled " I FARTED!!!!!!" - mark lunod

10/10 This is my second favorite ride in the whole park. I went on it with my dad and my friend Carl. I don't know anyone who doesn't love it. - Jack Borgeson

The lift feels so high and scary but the ride is not. It's just pure fun. - Sam C

Tatsu is the best roller coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain. It is a must ride for anyone who visits the park and likes roller coasters. There is no way to describe the flying sensation you get from riding this ride. If the line is three hours this ride is still worth the wait. - AJ Hummel

Okay this Flying roller Coaster gets my hands up and flying soo high. Although a good recommendation, if you have loose articles such as Cell Phones, wallets, and Sunglasses, I would best remove those because on record on the last time I went and lot of people reported losing a lot of things on this ride. overall this ride gives you sensations you can only imagine in your dreams. - Michael Han
