In 2016, Six Flags Over Texas will debut three brand new rides.

We are expanding our GOTHAM CITY section of the park with attractions themed after popular DC Universe Super-Villains. THE RIDDLER Revenge will send you on a swinging adventure atop a giant swaying pendulum. The round disk will swing back and forth up to 147 feet in the air while rotating counterclockwise. You'll rise up higher and higher on each swing with an unbelievable feeling of weightlessness at the highest point.

On CATWOMAN Whip, you'll spin and tilt in a circular motion, building up speed as the ride whips around. Additionally, HARLEY QUINN Spinsanity will twist and whirl around and around this classic family ride experience.

Cool, another one of those Zamperla Giant Frisbees. These are good and extremely fun.

I kinda doubt its gonna be a zamperla. I think its probably gonna be the one SFFT is removing.

No SFFT's Frisbee faces inwards.

They didn't say Riddler's, phew...

Because six flags always puts the right rides in there adds...

^True that. Ex. There was a boomerang in the background for Total Mayhem (by the way from now on I'm just going to abbreviate it TM) promotion even though we've never had one.

The Frisbee at Fiesta Texas is Huss, before it was declawed in 2008 guest would vomit just watching it due to the high rate of spin. It's nothing like this new ride which spins very slow with guests facing the outside. They have high capacity but are VERY slow to cycle. If you got 6 cycles an hour you are doing good.

Warp 2000, AKA Crazy Legs is also a Huss ride. Or rather parts of several since they managed to damage two of them in transit. A repaint, some new lights, maybe run it backwards, not really a new ride but its not one you want to throw away as they don't make them anymore.

Oh and a tilt a whirl, really?

Looks like they are getting a Zamperla Giant Discovery after all.

Intamin should make a Tilt-A-Whirl. It can somehow involve electromagnets and pull 5 G's.

5g's? Let's say 4 or 4.5 for a rider's comfort!

Those Zamperla Giant Frisbee's are imo better than the Huss ones. Too bad about the meh lights on the arm.
