With all of the (much deserved) Goliath hype, it’s easy to overlook some of the other great rides at Six Flags Great America in Gurnee. The B&M wing coaster X-Flight opened in 2012, and while it may not be the tallest or fastest ride in the park, it still has its own unique qualities.
We were at SFGA last year to check out their Ignite show and we decided to hop on X-Flight before the park closed. The ride is completely different at night – the strobe and mood lighting on the obstructions create another experience altogether. The park just posted a night POV that does it somewhat justice, but if you are at the park and haven’t tried X-Flight at night, put that on your priority list. It’s pretty great.
