Six Flags Mexico PTR 2/12/09

[bobbinbop20]

We decided to be brave and see how Six Flags does in Mexico, the result, not good!

The problem : In a city of 40 million people (Mexico City) they decided that one train on a ride built for 3 trains is a great idea, yes i know its winter and this is rehab time but could it really hurt to run 2 trains out of 3, when there clearly just sitting there not being worked on at all, and are in full working condition. Call me crazy but The one ride i was really looking forward to was the boomerang (At the time I had never rode a Boomerang before) but with my luck it was being repainted at the time so it was closed!!!

one other thing was when i asked an employee where i could get a park map she just looked at me and said 20 pesos! so does that mean you have to pay for a map? or did you just not understand me?


-Superman el ultimo escape - (Morgan hyper) - Jerky, No air time, all around boring
-Batman The Ride- (SLC) Surprisingly, the best coaster in the park. This is one of the better SLC's for sure
-Medusa- The worst wooden coaster I've ever ridden, It felt like we were gonna derail every 2 seconds, had horrible pacing, and made my brain rattle.
-tsunami- This was a cool Figure 8 Zierer Kiddie Coaster, with good scenery

the roller skater and boomerang were closed and I'm not going back for them


A video of the recording at btr its cool because its in spanish!

THE END. I hate this park, dont waste your time here, period.

[Jp]

I understand all those signs!!!

How many parks have you been to in 2009? It seems alot!

[Austin]

Haha ironic, the park is horrible but they have the best SLC and best ride queue, too bad the park is so horrible lol. Btw the food should be safe, i ate at one in cozumel in 2006 but dont drink the water. lol

Do you speak spanish?

And, I traveled to 17 different parks in 2009, which is a ton for me, I only went to 3 in 2008

dont drink the water. lol

I dont think I've ever gotten " Montezuma's Revenge" And I have gone to Mexico at least once a year, every year since I was 3.

Now my siblings, that's a different story..

[Jp]

I do speak spanish and I am taking Spanish 2 in school and my grade overall is a B+.

I forgot to mention Great Picetures as usual.

[bobbinbop20]

^I took Spanish 1 & 2, then I quit because it got to hard.

[Jp]

I am quiting spanish after this year, not because it is hard, its getting boring since I already know it!!!

[bobbinbop20]

You have a talent then

[nitrofan]

Well in San Antonio, a very large portion of the population is hispanic and/or speaks spanish. Spanish is much more useful in San Antonio than most of America.

I was going to start Spanish, but then left San Antonio so I didn't have as much of an urge to learn as I had. Now I'm trying to decide which language to learn.

[Austin]

In JCPS we have to take 2 years of a foreign language. I could pick either spanish or french. Did spanish and it was the most useless 2 classes ever.

Don't let that one experience ruin your opinion of the park. If you go back this summer, you will love it.
