X2 besides being one of the best coasters ever has quite a unique history to it and a kinda story to how it came about that I have always thought was pretty cool. X2 was built and designed by an awesome company known as Arrow Development who pretty much if you've been to a theme park anywhere it's a good chance you've ridden one of their coasters or rides as they've built several including Matterhorn Mountain @ Disneyland in Anaheim which was the first tubular steel coaster ever built. Wile Matterhorn was Arrow's first coaster X would be their last as they went bankrupt in the middle of construction for the ride as they had spent wayyy too much money developing this type of coaster technology to try to beat out the competition with the result of this the ride sat for about a year until it finally got finished only to have a ton of breakdowns due to design flaws and what not seeing that this type of technology hadn't been done before. So a few years later X becomes X2 which seemed like it was pretty much the end of what I would call a million breakdowns as the cars and some of the ride were redone to include music a new paint job and some other effects to help the ride run better. I've honestly lost count how many times I've ridden X & X2 but I can say that ever single time it's been a crazy insane experience as you pretty much have only the person sitting next to you as you pull out of the station in your rotating chair and head backwards up the lift hill into the sky of a incredible view of the Magic Mountain area where as you reach the top you feel a slight tease of a drop and then it's face first to the ground before your car starts doing a flip to even you out until the next part of this of this super thrilling ride until the end! The line for X2 can get really long I mean really long on busy days so try to seek it out first or come on a day where it won't be busy because you'll be chillin here for a bit! Once you reach the Station you can rent a locker to store your stuff in for $1 I highly recommend you get one or leave your stuff with your friend who's to chicken to ride because you will lose your items on this ride forshures! Im sure it won't be long before I take my next ride on X2 because it's always good times with that said... IS EVERYBODY IN? THE CEREMONY IS ABOUT TO BEGIN! IS EVERYBODY... read more
