It looks like we'll have to wait a little longer for what I've dubbed the "most anticipated new roller coaster of the summer." For the second time in as many months, Six Flags Magic Mountain has pushed back the opening of the rocking and spinning Green Lantern roller coaster. It is now scheduled to make its debut July 1 after the Valencia amusement park postponed planned premieres in May and June.
Crews have completed construction on the vertical, emerald-green track and continue to assemble the five throwing-star-themed coaster cars, with on-track testing expected to begin soon. A 10-foot-tall lantern icon near the ride's entrance will glow green at night. The Green Lantern's vertical zigzag track sits on a compact footprint near the Batman and Riddler’s Revenge coasters. The new-concept, fourth-dimension coaster, similar in style to X2 but much tamer, will reach a top speed of 37 mph over 825 feet of serpentine track during the two-minute ride.
