Confessions Of A Wuss...

How do the "Thrill Ratings" on the 6F website measure up to Disneyland rides? Would Screamin' be considered "moderate"? What about Space mountain?

I ask because I am taking my family (wife and 9 year old) to Magic Mountain for the first time in late August.

They love coasters. I don't. I don't hate coasters, I just get migranes easily. I can barely handle California Screamin' without getting a headache. Tower of Terror bothers me more the older I get. Although, nothing else at Disneyland really affects me.

My real question is this: Which coasters at 6F are going to make me miserable? Are most of them more extreme than Screamin'? I plan on doing the flumes and rapids, I just want to know if there are any coasters that don't push the envelope much more than Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.

Really, I am going to MM for my family. If I don't ride many rides, I won't be heartbroken. Just trying to prepare.

Any help is appreciated.

Yes, most of MM's showcase out-doups Screamin'.

I'd take Tatsu,Revolution and X2 off your hit list now, maybe have second thoughts about Scream,Superman,Batman,Deja Vu,Riddler,Goliath & Terminator(though it's pretty smooth) as well as the park's older canon: Colossus & Goldrusher, if you're not okay with riding something that's over 30 yrs old. Due to systemary weight, Ninja, despite inverted can't invert.
Making it a great family ride with a top speed of only 90km(55m)

Did that help?
Either way, enjoy your trip.

Most coasters at Disneyland (except Screamin') would be considered "Moderate Thrills" at Magic Mountain.

If you are ok with screamin I think you will be ok with the following coasters:

Revolution (has the one loop like Screamin), Terminator, Ninja, Colossus and "perhaps" Goliath (no loops, but tall and fast).

They also have 4 water rides that are all pretty gentle and of course, don't forget to take a ride up the Sky Tower and check out the museum up there.
