Titan Rollercoaster at Six Flags Over Texas, Arlington, TX

Late afternoon Kevin and Greg decided to take a few things back to the hotel while we were waiting for our next Flash Pass ride so I decided to head out into the parking lot for a better look at Titan.

Titan has some fantastic airtime coming down the first drop and off of the turn around in the back seat but the whole train is subjected to some massive air over this small hill that's taken at high speed.

The air is great on Titan but what really impressed me is it's massive positive forces.  You are seriously pressed down at the bottom of the drops and the G's through Titan's many helices are great.

Titan really glowed in the late afternoon sun.  Titan is only one of two coasters that Giovanola made during their brief stint directly selling coasters to parks.  While Titan and Goliath at Six Flags Magic Mountain are their only two coasters in the US they have worked for the likes of Intamin and Bollinger & Mabillard on many other coasters before going out of business.
