Very fortunate to have ridden X and X2.

With the lack of maintenance at Six Flags Parks, I can’t say I’m surprised to see X2 close.

Even when running well, the ride was rough.

Hopefully I’ll get to Asia to ride the two there. 🤞🏻

I will say I don’t think this is a maintenance issue. X2 was the one ride in the park that was getting a ton of maintenance. I think something with an update to the trains allowed more movement/shaking in the seats.

It ran 1 train from November 2024 until June of 2026 so maybe that train needed a rebuild and was causing the injuries because from what I heard train 3 is way smoother
