My Crotch Hurts
Sunday December 5, 2004
I went to Magic Mountain for what I believe was the second time ever (I think I went a third time when I was very young, but too young to really remember or recall going on any rides), and having a low tolerance for motion sickness, we decided to make X our first ride just to say we got the best ride in before the nausea would take over.
Whoever came up with the idea of having the seats rotate independently with the rest of the coaster car should get an award, and then be shot in the street. X has to be the most intense coaster I’ve ever been on, and hearing the same from people with far more coaster experience than I have, it seems to be unanimous. For everyone who knows what I’m talking about, X makes your special parts hurt far, far more than any other coaster.
Going on Ninja right afterwards was still a lot of fun though. Sure, it’s not as fast as X, the excitement isn’t really there, but it’s still a very fun coaster. Fun and intensity are two different things for me when discussing coasters.
On the way out (The park closes at 6 in the off season) I finally managed to pick up the infamous funnel cake that everyone is always talking about. Good, don’t know if it’s worth raving about though.
