The Jokers Jinx roller coaster - The American Coaster Enthusiasts Coaster Con 41 at Six Flags America, Upper Marlboro, MD

Like Poltergeist at Six Flags Fiesta Texas and the Flight of Fear coasters at Kings Island and Kings Dominion which are all the same design,  Jokers Jinx uses linear inductive motors to launch the ride up and into this twisted and compact tangle of track.

With four inversions, a 60 mph launch and 2,705 feet of track Jokers Jinx has plenty of thrills.

Taking a look across the park you can see Roar between Wild One and the Mind Eraser.

You can also get a nice look at Apocalypse from all the way up here.  I do have to say that it was completely terrifying sitting up here slowly rocking with the breeze.  I am no fan of heights and without the spin on Wonder Woman to distract vertigo really can creep into your mind.

You can get a really nice view of The Wild One from up here as well.
