Viper
at Six Flags Magic Mountain
Viper will always be one of my sentemental favorites. When it first opened it was a cutting-edge record-breaker that gave a great ride. Today it is a little rougher than it was in it's infancy. Going down the first drop and the first three loops are still great, but once again SFMM put trim brakes on a ride and diminished the ride experience in the process. You hit a set of trim brakes before the second drop that really slow down the boomerang and corkscrew. oh well at least I still have the memory of Viper when it had a really big bite.
