X², Steel roller coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain, California.
The 53-meter-tall steel track extends 1100 meters through loops and turns while seats rotate independently from the main chassis during the ride.
Arrow Dynamics created this prototype in 2002 as their final project, filing for bankruptcy shortly after due to cost overruns in development.
The transformation from X to X² in 2008 introduced modern elements including onboard audio systems and flame effects to enhance rider experience.
Riders need to measure at least 48 inches tall and secure all loose items before experiencing the independent forward and backward rotations.
Four rails guide the trains while a rack and pinion mechanism controls the seats' 360-degree spins throughout the course.
