This ride gets the award for "Most overrated ride EVER". I read the previous reviews for this, and I am not a DCAMAN, I rode it, and this is why this gets a 1. Ever since SFMM anounced X, I was hyped. I didnt want anything more than to cross country (Ohio to Cali) and ride X. This was the main reason I went to Cali. We get to SFMM at 10:15, and it already has a 3 hour line. I wasnt going to come so far just to be turned away by a line, so I waited in the heat for 3 hours. I finally get on, and at that first flip, OW! My head bangs on the head rest. I knew something was horribly wrong about this ride. I kept getting bashed, my legs, my head, even my arms! This is only the second ride I ever wanted to get off (Mean Streak being the other). People complain about SoB being rough, but theres a difference between X and SoB, X is steel! Steel is supposed to be smooth, not beat the crap out of you! Now Ive heard that the outside seats are the roughest, and I just so happened to be sitting on an outside seat, but it shouldnt have hurt THAT much! SFMM needs massive work on this ride, or else they should take it out.
Unlike DCAMAN, I gave ample reasons to my rating, so if I get flamed, you are just some SFMM supa-kid who thinks SFMM is the best park in the world, mainly because you havent been to other ones I guess. I recommend this ride to anyone that wishes to have a story to tell their grandchildredn, exept this will be a story about how rough a steel coaster could be.
