Today we headed up to Magic Mountain as we were pretty sure that the track for Wonder Woman Flight of Courage would be completed today. And yep, it is! Lots of pics and video of the newly completed track. And as you'll see below, they're moving on to the next phase, installing the rest of the electronics that has been going on for the past few weeks.  The track was topped off today and is now complete!!   You can now see the coaster from the boardwalk area   Lots of new places to see the ride  So much twistiness  MCBR, and some of the fence has been installed
 It’s really looking great and is going to be so fun!  Just a tangled mess of awesome 
 As you can see, electronics work is continuing. You can see that they've already done quite a bit.  First drop awesomeness    Is it open yet? The park also has a lot of new Pride merchandise
 Nothing says pride like rainbow poop
 Savage
 Fanny packs coming back is a thing
So now we move into the next phase of construction. Getting the lift hill chain installed, lighting, electronics which will eventually lead to testing. It may start rather soon actually. I'm still anticipating an opening around July 4th, with maybe soft openings a bit before that. But until we hear anything official, that's just speculation. It's likely we won't have any updates until testing begins, there won't be much to see for at least a week or two. Related Videos

Last Friday we were invited out to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom as the park unveiled their newest coaster, Sidewinder Safari!

Happy Tuesday that feels like a Monday! Hope you all had a great long holiday weekend, and if you visited any parks you brought your patience with you. We made a quick stop at Magic Mountain on Friday before the weekend crowds showed up, only to see that it was Middle School day in the park. Needless to say, this was the shortest visit I've made to the park since they reopened last year. I think I was at the park for about 45 minutes tops. But that was enough time to get some pics and video of what's going on around the park, and use my skip the line pass on Full Throttle. I also apologize for the brightness of the pics/video. It was overcast and very bright and not the best day to get pics. Everything looks washed out. Oh well. It happens. =) Let's get into the update! Written by Gregg Condon  Flags are at half staff for yet another mass shooting. If we're not going to do anything about this we might as well keep them like this. And that's all I'm gonna say about that.  Orient Express/Honda Express has another new name!  But it was closed during our visit, so not moving.  The full throttle stage is back up, and decked out for Grad Nite.   What you all came here for!  A look at the almost completed lift hill.  I have to be honest, I expected them to be a bit further along since it had been 2 weeks since our last update.  A look at the store/restaurant/we don't know yet. This looks to be in pretty much the same spot as Teen Titans Pizza was, so we're going with food.  The final turn into the brake run is complete  The track and Riddler's supports are pretty identical in color  Mid Course Brake Run   They've started installing the perimeter fence around the coaster.  Looks pretty similar to what is there for Riddler's  The top of the lift  An overview of the middle section of the coaster  I know we'd been discussing a July 4th opening, and they could technically still make it, but it will be close. We had heard track was to be completed by the end of May, that's obviously not happening. Even if it's done by the end of this week, that leaves barely a month to finish if they're hoping for July 4th. I just don't see it happening. Right now I'd say a mid-July opening. But obviously we'll update you all if we hear any different. Related Videos
