Tatsu is a flying roller coaster designed by Bolliger & Mabillard at the Six Flags Magic Mountain amusement park located in Valencia, California, United States.

Tatsu also features the world's tallest pretzel loop and the only zero-gravity roll inversion on a flying coaster model.

Nearly a decade later, The Flying Dinosaur opened at Universal Studios Japan in 2016, breaking Tatsu's length record and matching its speed.

[1] Land clearing began in mid-2005 around the Samurai Summit area of the park with track for the new roller coaster arriving from Ohio soon thereafter.

[6] Tatsu broke several records upon opening, becoming the world's tallest, fastest, and longest flying roller coaster.

Another series of turns follows, with the train veering downward and then upward to the left, ending at the final brake run and returning to the station.

Joel Bullock from The Coaster Critic gave Tatsu a nine out of ten for its close-to-the-ground approaches and intense pretzel loop at the bottom of the element.

[19] Justice from Park Thoughts also gave the roller coaster a nine out of ten saying that, "The lift hill is one of the most suspenseful I have ever experienced."

[21] In Tatsu's opening year, it was named the 40th best steel roller coaster in the world in Amusement Today's Golden Ticket Awards; tied with Talon at Dorney Park.
