The Twisted Colossus rollercoaster - American Coaster Enthusiasts Coaster Con 42 at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California

Having been to some parks where it seems that ride operators really don't care about giving the guest a really memorable experience the ride operators; with a large portion of the ride experience literally in how fast they work, really work hard and give their all to get the train out on time.  There were many great ride crews at Six Flags Magic Mountain but the one at Twisted Colossus was the best.

With Twisted Colossus being a Rocky Mountain Construction hybrid coaster (steel track/wood structure) of course they had to throw a couple of inversions into the design.

It is really fun rolling right over and looking up and seeing another trainload of people speeding along with you looking up at you.

The blue track of Twisted Colossus inverts you with a zero g roll while the green track goes through a "top gun stall" which is basically a simple hill but you traverse it hanging there upside down.

It is a lot of fun racing for the finish on Twisted Colossus but remember one thing...
