yeah. truly.. this is nothing though.. it was rusted the first time i rode it. before they themed it and the surrounding area around batman it was rusted brown lol
As you can see, the layout is purposely unpredictable. Many blind turns into blind hills. When ridden at night it truly is a mind bender. One of my best coaster memories ever. No wonder it still around !
I've ridden this thing a zillion times and it never gets old. My mom used to take my brother and I as many time as possible during the summer when we were out of school. Bless her, she is scared of coasters and would find a place to sit just outside the entrance while we rode over and over and over
The fact the half of the amusement park was underwater a couple months before or after this and that one of the loops from mindbender was halfway underwater is incredible
This was my favorite one!!! They don't give you nothing to hold onto but a little bar way Infront of you.... I thought I was going to die going upside down and not having the bars that went over my shoulders!! It was so fun!!!
Aria Grey here is a fact. on a roller coaster you never have to worry about falling out the seat due to G-FORCE and Gravity. when you hit that loop it will feel like you are being pushed and pinned against the seat
i guess you haven't gotten stuck upside down. lol you'll probably never experience that since they reconstructed it after the 1990 issues. we got stuck upside down for half an hour one time lol
Rode this in 85 and 86 when I was 16 and 17. SO fun!!! I remember me and my friend talking about Mind Bender when we were just about 12. Hope he got to ride it.
It's been forever since I've been on roller coasters. Good memories of this. I'm sure they've got better one by now, but Mind bender looks just as awesome as it was ions ago
It's still one of the better coasters at the park, idk when you rode it if they had messed with the seats since being built but the current seating is more like the old just done a little nicer and for 2021 it'll be more restored (track-work) and probably be running better than ever. The loops are also more forceful than basically any new coaster that's made, believe it or not.
Still there. Just got a touch up in paint and some new trains and tracking. They did put up a speed control just before you go down into the second loop and at the end. They also built a control room for the ride controllers. I ride it a couple of months ago and it’s almost as good as it used to be. The extra speed controls do slow it down too much though.
great memories!...getting the 45 dollar season passes back in 1983 84 85..was there every Sunday for like 3 yrs straight during the summers!..its great to see all the new rides they have now!..
This was The first ride I rode at Six Flags over Georgia and my mom said that it wouldn’t be bad at all but I scream so loud I hated it but now I love it
I remember when it first opened, and I was extremely scared of this thing. u hear the screams thru the wood and the wheels turning. then thru the trees u see the train appear and disappear. but the night rides were the best to watch sitting under the tracks in the walkway... GA classic
I'm waiting for the Riddler Mindbender to have painted retracked fresh and smooth trains. It better be smoother when I ride it in 2021. I am ready to ride it,!!!
@@On1ylexo they are in the process of rebuilding i went yesterday and on July 4th and they havent touched it since so im guessing cause of covid-19 they havent been doing it.
Old school coaster and the first steel coaster at Six Flags over Georgia. Even though it's old and nowhere near the fastest or highest, it is a blast even today. It was a well designed coaster. One of my favorites aspects is the way is darts in and around the tree tops.
I remember when "The Riddler's Mindbender" was just Mindbender. No batman theme. It was also painted brown. Still the same great classic Schwarzkopv ride though!
I remember riding it with my sister when it first opened! I wouldn’t open my eyes in the loops but when I did we were upside down! I remember my sister laughing!
This was my first roller coaster ;-; I had to take my glasses off so they wouldn’t fall off and I couldn’t see anything. I also didn’t know that you had to lean back on big turns and loops so my head went all the way to my knees. I think I scared someone in the line. (They didn’t come back, I feel bad)
My mother nearly cried when it got to the part at the top where it feels like you are about to stop. Haha me and my bro teased her, she enjoyed it alot though after that part!! :D
