Despite being too short Goliath is an insanely fun coaster by the
twisted minds of Alan Schilke and Rocky Mountain Construction. I
would have more photos of Goliath but I was having too much fun riding
coasters over and over with Bond to get any more.
Speaking of my boy here is Bond while we wait for one of our many rides
on Vertical Velocity.
With a quick but intense ride even if we didn't have the Flash Pass
Vertical Velocity would have been easy to ride over and over. For
a while there Six Flags purchased several of these coasters. I
wouldn't mind if they bought some more and added one to parks like Six
Flags St. Louis.
I was trying to get a nice photo of The Joker from over on the Whizzer's
station but Batman had to photobomb the Joker.
I am glad seeing Six Flags adding these S&S Sansei 4d free spin coasters
to their parks. They take up a small plot of land and with each
seat hitting the magnets that flip the seats differently there is a huge
variety of ride packed into The Joker's 1,019 feet of track.
