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.
