Among the most popular rides are the Boomerang, which features two loop-de-loops and a corkscrew, the Poltergeist, which takes you from zero to 60 miles per hour in less than four seconds, and the iconic BATMAN™, the world’s first 4D, free-fly roller coaster.

In 2021, the park added a new adrenaline-inducing ride to its ranks: the Dare Devil Dive Flying Machines.

Next year will break yet another record when Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger officially opens to the public during the summer.
Facebook/Six Flags Fiesta Texas The world’s steepest dive roller coaster, Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger will commemorate the park’s 30th anniversary, pushing the boundaries of what is physically possible with a beyond-vertical, 95-degree drop.
Dr. Diabolical is on a mission to harvest human fear for her own personal evildoings, and it all starts with the nerve-wracking ride to the tip-top of the roller coaster.

Once the nail-biting ascent is finally over, you’ll realize just how high up you truly are.
YouTube/ElToroRyan The ride, which takes you a whopping 150 feet in the air, offers a panoramic view of the entire park that, under normal circumstances, would be quite beautiful - but these are far from normal circumstances.
Before the face-first plunge, you’ll be locked in a cliffhanger hold that seems to last forever.
YouTube/ElToroRyan Finally, once Dr. Diabolical has collected all the adrenaline she needs to carry out her sinister plot, you’ll be released into a 60-mile-per-hour freefall.
The remainder of the 2,500-foot-long track features all sorts of wild twists and turns, another drop, and a high-speed spiral as the grand finale.
