  • This former Dinn Corporation wooden coaster was given the RMC (Rocky Mountain Construction) IBox track conversion in 2011, bringing about the most significant change in the industry since the turn of the century. In addition to turning this former woodie into a steel hybrid coaster, the height was increased by 10 feet ( m) to 153 feet and the drop was made steeper (79 °), which also boosted the top speed to over 65 mph ( km/h). However, the best new features are the over-banked turns (up to 95 °).
    Check out the other on-ride video we posted to see what it's like to be in the back seat of this thrilling coaster:
    This Six Flags park is located near Dallas in Arlington, Texas.

    Just rode this yesterday and it's by no means tame. One of the few coasters that I scream in terror vs. maniacal enjoyment😅

    Such an underrated ride. The airtime on this coaster (while not as crazy as other RMC's) absolutely rules.

    Love New Texas Giant! I’ve ridden 13 RMC’s and don’t understand how people call this a weaker RMC.
    I find New Texas Giant to be better than Jersey Devil, Wonder Woman, Goliath, Twisted Cyclone, and Storm Chaser.

    Kinda crazy how tame it looks considering how inovative and groundreaking it was in 2011. Almost looks like a Family Coaster compared to what RMC did afterwards.

    RMC should convert judge roy scream so we can get some of the newer RMC features like back to back inversions and hang time that feels like you are literally going to fall out. RMCs newer conversions are insane

    The last time I was on this was in 2007 before they closed it for renovation. The older version would rattle your entire body to the point of feeling like your brain was going to come loose inside your head. I hope the renovation has smoothed out the shaky ride.

    there's some people who get bad vertigo from inversions it's nice that at least one RMC I-box upgrade chose to not do inversions.

    Considering this version of the ride has been around since 2011, I think they can take the "new" out of the name and just go back to "Texas Giant." Haha

      It’s an RMC hybrid coaster, meaning steel track and wood supports.

    I'm super curious on how or who you talk to to allow you to put a GoPro on this ride as I have tried to request many times from Six Flags over Texas to either wear a body cam wrist strap and they have not actually denied but just send me their policy on filming on rides even though I messaged corporate to see if I can get a waiver of some sort I'm not a fan of Six Flags policies on this matter as other major theme park chains allow you to bring cameras on as long as it's attached with the appropriate attachment example, chest mount or wrist mount cameras. As for the ride, it's my favorite at Six Flags over Texas, which is my home park

    Unpopular opinion: I prefer the original John Pierce-designed Texas Giant with it’s “Magic Carpet Finale”. Nothing against RMC, but this is kind of…meh

    • @evoandy
      @evoandy 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It definitely feels less wild than the original. RMC tamed it for sure, but I agree that there’s something missing from it now compared to the original though Maybe I just see the original through rose colored glasses because it was the first “big” coaster I got to ride. I used to go to six flags with my family when I was too little to ride the original giant so there was always a “forbidden fruit” element to it for me. When I was finally big enough to ride it I went CRAZY for it. I love the RMC conversion and I think it’s very underrated. But I sometimes miss the old giant.
