Dr. Diabolicals Cliffhanger Topped Off at Six Flags Fiesta Texas

The topping off marks the installation of the cliffhanger hold element and the completion of the highest section of track.

Work will now move forward piece by piece with track installation following the course of the ride. In total, crews will install 2,501 feet of roller coaster track.
​

Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger will open this summer. This new coaster features three 21-passenger trains that keep the adrenaline flowing as riders reach a height of 15 stories, then pause face-first before diving at 60 mph and flying through a variety of high-thrill experiences.

Picture
SAN ANTONIO, Texas — July 28, 2021 — Six Flags Fiesta Texas, The Thrill Capital of South Texas, today unveiled plans to debut the world’s steepest dive roller coaster--Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger. This exhilarating newdive coaster features a cliffhanger hold, which suspends riders as they face straight down a 95-degree, beyond-vertical drop, then releases them moments later into a terrifying 150-foot dive.

“Six Flags Fiesta Texas continues to push the limits of thrill and innovation as we prepare to introduce the world’s steepest dive coaster during our 30th anniversary season,” said Park President Jeffrey Siebert. “Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger joins an already stellar lineup of record breaking roller coasters, rides, and attractions. With eight intense elements including dramatic inversions and extreme airtime, it will quickly become a fan favorite,” added Siebert.

​As guests enter the ride queue, they will be immersed in the story of Dr. Diabolical and her evil quest to create menacing creatures to frighten the world. To give her creations life, Dr. Diabolical constructed a machine to capture the essence of human adrenaline and fear. Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger features three 21-passenger trains that keep the adrenaline flowing as riders reach a height of 15 stories, then pause face-first before diving at 60 mph and flying through a variety of high-thrill experiences
Key features of Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger include:
  • Three sleek trains with three rows of passengers, seated seven across;
  • 2,501 feet of soaring track;
  • Thrilling anticipation while the ride vehicle pauses in a face-first cliffhanger hold before plummeting 150 feet;
  • Spectacular, beyond-vertical, 95-degree first drop;
  • A second 75-foot, near-vertical drop;  An Immelmann inversion, during which riders enter a half-loop, followed by a half twist, then exit the element traveling in the opposite direction making a 180-degree turn;
  • Four intense elements, including an extreme airtime hill, wild-banked turn, high-speed spiral, and 270-degree zero-g roll;
  • Speeds of up to 60 mph;
  • Immersive steampunk theming that tells the story of Dr. Diabolical’s plot to harvest fear; and
  • Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger is a custom-designed roller coaster created by Bolliger & Mabillard
​Riders must meet the 52-inch height requirement. Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger was announced during the FT92 Fan Event, and will debut in the summer of 2022 during the park’s 30th Anniversary season. It will be located in the Crackaxle Canyon Screampunk District.

​​New Dare Devil Dive brings Aerobatic Thrills To Six Flags Fiesta Texas
 
Experience Intense Aerial Maneuvers on the Tallest Ride of Its Kind
SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- March 5, 2021 — This Saturday, March 6 at noon, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, the Thrill Capital of South Texas, will debut Dare Devil Dive, the World’s Tallest Ride of Its Kind!  Riders will experience the thrills and sensations of weightlessness through aerial banks, loops and dives, all while seated in a retro four-seater steam punk flying machine!  Sharply turning right side up and upside down, riders will break from formation and maneuver into aerobatic dogfights during the barnstorming journey, all while soaring nearly 50 feet above Crackaxle Canyon.
 
“If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to experience all the breathtaking thrills of an expert stunt pilot, this ride is for you,” said Park President Jeffrey Siebert. “Not only will riders travel through numerous barrel rolls upside down, but the first set of loops and dives occur from a height of nearly 50 feet in the air.  Being located in our Crackaxle Canyon area of the park, the steam punk theme adds a creatively themed visual complement to the western area.” ​
Dare Devil Dive features:
 
  • Six four-seater steam punk flying machines;
  • Barnstorming maneuvers at a height of nearly 50 feet;
  • Breathtaking aerial loops, banks and dives;
  • Weightlessness while sharply turning right side up and upside down;
  • A spectacular, soaring view of Crackaxle Canyon; and
  • Dramatically themed steam punk musical accompaniment.
 
Dare Devil Dive opens just in time for Spring Break at Six Flags Fiesta Texas. This year, an expanded lineup of shows and fireworks gives guests more entertainment options than ever.
Spring Break highlights:
  • Spring Blast – This nightly fireworks show lights up the skies above the park each evening at close March 6-14 & 17-20;

  • The Houngan House of Voodoo – Continued by popular demand, this Mardi Gras original feature takes guests through room-after-room of a cursed French Quarter home filled with magical dolls, potions, charms and gris-gris in this voodoo-themed walk-thru attraction;

  • Neon – Get set for a show that reverts back to the 80’s. Travel back in time to a decade of music that produced favorites like “My Prerogative”, “Rhythm Nation”, “It’s Tricky” and “Flashdance”. An energetic cast of six will sing and dance their way into guests’ hearts with totally tubular and bodacious tunes. This show will make guests want to moon walk right over to Teatro Fiesta to catch this new hit;  
  • Fuego – Where there is smoke, there is fire. And this show is caliente! The park’s superb cast of dynamic singer/dancers brings the best of Latin and Pop to the Teatro Fiesta stage. Color, rhythm, choreography and music meld together in this exciting show; and
  • Country Traxx - Country music makes its return to Fiesta Texas with an all-new production for this season. This show is country from the heart and it is music for the soul featuring tunes like “All My Ex’es”, “Redneck Woman” and “Country Girl Shake It For Me”.
