Magic Springs and Crystal Falls Water and Theme Park, Hot Springs, Arkansas

After lunch it was time to go ride again and this big ass coaster was calling us.

I have been on all of the coasters at Magic Springs before but I had never been at the park when there was actually a line.

What makes that interesting is to a long time coaster enthusiast like myself with over four hundred and fifty coasters under my belt X-Coaster doesn't look that imposing and intimidating to me.

Every time we got in line to ride someone after staring up at how X-Coaster lifts you up one hundred and fifty-one feet, leaves you hanging there upside down at the top of the lift, rolls you over and then dives down headfirst into the station either had a panic attack and freaked out or just said "oh hell no" before leaving the line.

Some would get into the station and pause a second before sitting down before heading to the exit.  It really shows what an imposing and impressive ride that X-Coaster is.
