Batman Flips and Flies at Six Flags Fiesta Texas

Batman: The Ride at Six Flags Fiesta Texas soft-opens to season pass holders this weekend, giving members of the public a preview of the first-of-its-kind “Free Spin” coaster from S&S Worldwide.

Watching this “reverse” POV gives you an idea of just how insane this free-spinning coaster really is:


I think I’ll eat lunch after I ride.

This 4th dimension “Batman” coaster may not emulate the smooth flight the caped crusader would take through Gotham City, but it’s sure to be a flight you won’t soon forget.

The coaster stands 12 stories tall and features two beyond 90-degree “raven drops.” The magnetic technology that results in the ride’s flipping gives riders a feeling of weightlessness as they careen down the 1,000+ feet of track. Each of the coaster’s eight-seat trains reach a top speed of 38 mph.

The video below provides some dizzying off-ride footage of the coaster in action:
