New Maxx Force POV Footage + Ride Opens July 4th Weekend

© Six Flags Great America

Another highly anticipated roller coaster for 2019 is about ready to open! Six Flags Great America has started testing Maxx Force, the park's new S&S Worldwide compressed air launch roller coaster.

The ride is a quick one, featuring a launch that rockets trains from 0 to 78 miles per hour in only 2 seconds - that's going to be a very extreme launch! It then soars up into a 17 story double-inversion element that's kinda sorta but not really a cobra roll, then back to the ground for the world's fastest inversion, an extended corkscrew that heads to the opposite side of the ride. Two more quick inversions and then the ride comes into the final brakes.

Ready for a ride?

Now that the ride is testing and in the final stages of preparation, the park has also announced that it will open on July 4th in time for the following holiday weekend. The press event is scheduled for the 2nd, and pass holder preview days after that before the general public. Get ready to ride!
