Six Flags Magic Mountain | Unknown | Vekoma Thrill Glider | 2026

I had really hoped from the first drawing that they would be getting a double-launched terrain STC. Though, it's a wacky concept so it'll be nice to see how it plays out.

This looks like it could be a lot of fun.

So, all that concrete amphitheater... that's just going to still be there? That's a choice.

 

[Rollercoaster David]

So it's a bit like a volare... But good?

Can't wait to ride F.L.Y. without all that icky theming!

 

[rideguy70]

what a wonderful idea with the best of intentions. a launched suspended swinging coaster with moterbike seating, what could possibly go wrong...

Does it say anywhere that it swings?

 

[Knortie307]

maybe a suspend motorbike coaster from vekoma? heard they where trying to build one of these...

Told you guys.

Waiting to hear more before I pass judgement. Modern Vekoma is great so I’m sure it’ll ride beautifully… I just didn’t expect this to be their first choice >.<

Not all thrill glider models are suspended. Although the footers suggest this one is.

Here's an example of a non suspended model

Parks really be buying anything but new gen Vekoma flyers

Sometimes I wonder if Phantasialand got an exclusivity deal on the prototype of FLY, kinda like Alton Towers had with Oblivion.

This Vekoma looks hilarious. I feel like the closed-in motorbike seats may detract from the freedom of being suspended; but I do look forward to swinging around and experiencing some unique sensations on this. Is it enough to get me back to Magic Mountain? No, but luckily X2 is anyway

I’m wondering if Disney will use this model for their Door Suspended Monster Inc coaster ?
