 Happy Tuesday and welcome to another update from Six Flags Magic Mountain! In this update you'll see some more of the deconstruction of Tidal Wave, and also unfortunately the crowds that have descended on the park even though it's still currently only at 35% capacity. In the video below I share some thoughts on this so I won't go into it too much here. Written by Gregg Condon  No more temperature checks at the park!  Security was a breeze as always, love this new system! But park entry was another story.  This was the line to get in at about 2:00pm on Saturday. So much for the reservations and staggered arrivals.  The Membership "skip the line" and Flash Pass lines were quite long as well.   Headed up to Samurai Summit for the first time since reopening. Wonder if we'll be seeing Fright Fest this year.  Through the trees you can see what's left of Tidal Wave  Guessing by this time next week this will be mostly gone   Anybody remember when Riddlers, Tidal Wave AND Freefall were here?   Lamps are being removed as well  Sorry for the pole, but here you can see how much is being removed. Oddly enough, it doesn't look like they've done much removal of the station. Hmm.  They've kept some vegitation and removed some   From the other side you can definitely see how little is left   On the way out, a look at the newly repainted Hurricane Harbor slides. The park seemed pretty empty, anybody been to HH? How have the crowds been?  As I was leaving, they were testing the buses. And having to tell everybody not to walk in the bus route. So things ARE returning to normal. Related Videos

 Last Friday I made a quick stop at Six Flags Magic Mountain on my way up to the Bay Area for some coaster fun at Discovery Kingdom and Great America (those updates are coming up over the next couple of days). Lots of work going on with the 2022 Coaster Project (rumored RMC single rail coaster). Written by Gregg Condon I did have to keep reminding myself that this is now the 2022 project, not 2021, even uploaded the video below as 2021 at first. Thanks to the commenters for catching that for me! This is why you don't edit and narrate video at 7am from a hotel room. =)  Welcome to Magic Mountain! Getting into the park was super easy, more touchless security checkpoints have been added. Wish more parks would go this route.  Headed straight to the back of the park for some solo rides on West Coast Racers, Apocalypse and Gold Rusher.   I guess I could have ridden Tatsu, but I'm honestly not a fan of it. I'll give it my yearly courtesy ride at some point.  The park is looking great!   The underground at about 10:40 or so.    Solo rides are so fun! I did get a few of these over the weekend!    Apocalypse was running well, still could use a bit of track work in a couple of spots  Let's check out what's going on with the 2022 coaster!  There is fence from the exit of Riddlers all the way around the planter towards the bbq restaurant.  Tidal wave is being removed. While this was inevitable, can't help but feel a park as big (and as hot) as SFMM needs more than 2 water rides.  The Dining area is still open, but no shade  Tidal Wave sign is gone  Hope they keep the outer wall as it looks really nice   Over on the DC Universe Side, more walls   Most of the signage for Green Lantern is still up, maybe the new coaster will keep that theme?  The facades have been removed, which is odd. Most likely they were in the way of the coaster layout.  The warehouse there stores all of the prizes for the nearby games. Wondering if it will remain. Time will tell.   Here you can see the flume for Tidal Wave being removed   Batman just reopened from a new paint job and refurbishment. It's looking and running great!   We hope you enjoyed the update, we'll be back at the park in a couple of weeks for more fun and updates. Related Videos
