X2Roller coasterMinimum height to ride: 48 inches About X2X2 is a revamped version of Magic Mountain's "X," the 4-D roller coaster that proved to be the undoing of Arrow Dynamics. X2 offers lighter, stronger passenger trains than X, with the hopes that will eliminate the coaster's notorios downtimes. In addition, X2 boasts on-ride fog and fire effects, in an effort to provide a better "show" along with what fans described as a spectacular ride. When they could get on it, of course. -- Last edited by Robert Niles Photos from X2Safety
Readers' Opinions
This is a pretty good ride. My only complaint is that its pretty rough and i got thrown around a lot. My friend and I went on it like a million times in a row and we had bruises from it haha. But its still fun and its one of the rides that you should definitely go on. - Chloe ! Its a unique concept with great themeing. I think its okay, but it just WAY TOO SHORT!!! I give it a 8/10, PS if it took 10 million to just spraypaint it red and black, add one set of flame throwers, and a couple of fog machines, in my oppinion they are lying and only payed at maximum 3 million... - Mateo sams X2 was not a very good coaster in my opinion. it was way to short and i got shaken around. and last time i went on it i got a huge bruise on my leg from the last turn. Overall it was OK. - Timothy Berg One of the greatest most intense coaster i ever been on! My favorite coaster ever! - I.Am McLovin There are no words to describe this piece of roller coaster perfection! The buildup to the first drop is so intense and wicked cool, its enough to drive you to the point of insanity when you're thinking "When the hell is this drop gonna go down so that I can start yelling already?!" Truly, a marvel of roller coaster technology and engenuity...the wait may be long but it is definantly WORTH IT!!! - Steph Ramos X2 offers an incredible physical experience while riding. However, it is pretty uncomfortable, and sometimes has given me headaches. Would still recommend it to someone who has ridden though. - Josh Bishop absolutly amzing ride from being smooth to the music to the fire effects perfection at it's best 10/10 - Michael Brunson 9/10 The drop is so INTENSE!!! It feels short, but a lot is packed into that short time!!! it hurts your legs, they bounce up and down alot, btw. But a must-ride obviously!!! - Corey Nelson X2 is the most intense roller coaster ever! It is just like the Zipper! I would wait hours to ride it! I love X2 because of the loud music and the fire. The ride is sooooo awesome!!!!! - Sarah Meeks Somewhere throughout the ride you find yourself thinking "How is this even possible?" - Arrow went out on a good note. - Jacob Sundstrom Indescribable feeling. Love the first drop amazing yet this ride is too short. - Nicholas Kalscheuer the ride was amazing and the speakers were bumpin the whole ride and it was so much smoother then x and the fire fell so close to the people but the only thing that sucked was the small drop before the steepest drop ever was gay cause i yelled for nothing!!! - mark lunod So much better Than the original X. I loved the soundtrack and the fire but i didn't see the fog. It was not as jerky as the original but it still was a little bit. - Sam Collier
