The New Revolution, Steel roller coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain, Valencia, California, US
The New Revolution is a steel roller coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain in California with a white track and blue support structure. The ride features a chain lift, twisted hills, and a 90-foot vertical loop.
The ride opened in 1976 as Great American Revolution and was among the first modern coasters to feature a vertical loop design. This innovation marked an important milestone in roller coaster development.
The name connects to American independence and marks a significant moment in the nation's history through its design. Visitors can feel this historical connection while experiencing the ride.
Each train holds 20 riders divided into five cars with two rows of two passengers each. The chain lift system is visible from the ground, allowing visitors to track the ride as it operates.
The vertical loop relies on a triangular lattice steel tube support structure found on only two other roller coasters worldwide. This rare design choice reflects an early engineering solution for vertical inversions.
