What makes the X ride at Magic Mountain so great?

Question

I read the details on Magic Mountain's site and it sounds really fun. All I know its the first of its kind but the description does not make sense to me. Can someone who has been on it explain what happens on this ride that makes it so great?

Answer 1

The seats on X are hanging over the side of the track instead of on top or underneath like most roller coasters.

Because of this, the seats are able to spin on a different axis and creates a whole new ride experience.

Answer 2

Well it has great drops and loops and the seats spin so on the first drop it feels like your just falling, plus now its gonna be better because they are redoing it and painting it red and black and putting on better rails. Its great.
