Six Flags Fiesta Texas (SFFT) Discussion Thread

Thats awsome the loop fits right into Supermans!

^So does the Zero-G roll of Superman and Batma-ERR-Goliath's first flatspin.

That's really pretty amazing how it worked out that way!

Man I don't care how many clones there are, the Inverted Batman layout is sweet whichever the color or name.

I really like the colors on it. Also, I like how the loop fits right in there with Superman's loop. Looks like it will be a nice addition to the park!

Ill get to ride it next season when I move out to TX!

Im wondering if the spinning coaster is good? Ive only been on one of those stock back and forth ones.

If Tony Hawk runs like Timberland Twister, you will be in for a thrilling fun ride. If you want the best spinning, make sure that your car has uneven weight distribution.

I agree with all of you that this ride looks great with Superman in the background.

Pandemonium at SFNE is really fun and smooth, and I think its the same design as Tony Hawk. Its a fun ride, its not thrilling fun.

I am confused on the location of this ride. From the pics it looks close to Superman but on some pics it looks like it is right on the parking lot in the front. Superman is at the very back of the park so exactly where is Batman?

I think it's around this area, at the front of the park. You can see the Alamo-style entrance (right side) and two tram shelters (near the zero-g roll) in the foreground of the construction pictures.

Pandemonium at SFNE is really fun and smooth, and I think its the same design as Tony Hawk. Its a fun ride, its not thrilling fun.

TT was the first spinner with the TH/Pandemonium/Spinning Dragons layout. the only big difference with Timberland or Pandemonium is that the Tony Hawks are mirrored layouts.

Those look nice! I like the track's color too.

Those trains look awesome! Love the colours, but I'm not sure if it would look too good on the blue track.

Edit: Changed my mind. I think they will go well with the track.

I found these on sfftnet.com, but I think they are Jakizle's.

Everybody had better get out to Fiesta Texas soon ,because you never know when this puppy will close the park.

So.. This is like.. If your facing the entrance to your left?

Looks Great! I love the colors.

Does the drop really get that close to the path? If so, that would make great photo opportunities.

At first I wasn't sure about the colors, but seeing them now they don't look that bad. Did they use the old trains from Batman or did they get new ones?

I love that first shot of the zero g! It just looks so wrong!

So wait...where exactly is it in the park??

Right near the entrance.

I think that's odd that you can stand right under the first drop and the loop, I would think that would pose a safety hazard. I wonder if they will put up any netting to keep loose object from flying off and hitting people since that is a pretty high G force point.

I really like the colors on this though, it looks better than some of the Batmen themed ones and I think it certainly looks a lot better than the other San Antonio "Batman"

Pictures of the train coming down that drop are going to be awsome!

I dont think there are any other inverts with the drop right over a path.

It looks like they cut the supports some. It looked much, much taller in New Orleans. It doesn't look like it would be able to survive a flood now.

Did they trim the supports? I also noticed they're still not finished painting it. Other than that, I can't wait for it to open!!!!

The footers are not as tall as they were at SFNO.

That ride went up quite quick. Surprised the Paint job is complete as well. Very speedy workers there. Looks alot like "Batman: the Ride." Should be a good thrill to ride on.

Goliath is an exact clone, but the drop drops to the right instead of the left.

-Tatum "Clones Rock!"
