How Accessible Boarding Works
Six Flags Over Texas is a thrill park built around roller coasters, so most rides require you to transfer from your wheelchair or ECV into the ride vehicle. Restraints are designed to hold riders firmly through strong forces, and several coasters list extremity requirements and expect riders to brace and maintain a stable seated position. Guests using the Attraction Access Pass receive a reservation time at each ride and enter through the alternate entrance when it arrives, which at many rides is THE FLASH Pass entrance. See the full accessibility guide for how the Access Pass and the required IBCCES card work.
Because the transfer and restraint details vary by ride, talk to the team member at each attraction before you queue, and use the height and restraint signage posted at every entrance. The height requirements below are drawn from the park's official Safety & Accessibility Guide as of July 2026.
The Major Coasters
1. Tormenta Rampaging Run
Type: Dive coaster (new for 2026) | Height: 48" | Transfer: Yes
The park's newest headliner, opened July 2026 and billed as the world's first giga dive coaster, with a 309-foot lift, a 285-foot beyond-vertical drop, and 87 mph. Must transfer into an over-the-shoulder restraint. The suspended-drop hold at the top and the near-vertical plunge make this one of the most intense rides in North Texas, so it is not a starter coaster. As a brand-new ride, confirm its current height and rider requirements at the ride sign, since the printed accessibility guide may not list it yet.
2. New Texas Giant
Type: Hybrid coaster | Height: 48" | Transfer: Yes
A steel-on-wood hybrid rebuild of the original Texas Giant, with a steep 79-degree first drop, strong airtime, and banked turns. Must transfer into a lap-bar seat. Widely rated one of the best rides in the park, and smoother than its all-wood ancestor, though the airtime is aggressive. No inversions.
3. Titan
Type: Steel hyper coaster | Height: 48" | Transfer: Yes
A towering steel coaster with a 255-foot first drop, a long high-speed layout, and a helix that pulls sustained G-forces. Must transfer into a lap-bar seat; guests using a wheelchair or ECV reach the station by an elevator adjacent to THE FLASH Pass entrance. The extended helix is demanding, so weigh that if you are sensitive to sustained force. No inversions.
4. Batman: The Ride
Type: Inverted coaster | Height: 54" | Transfer: Yes
An inverted coaster where your feet dangle, with five inversions at 50 mph. Must transfer into the over-the-shoulder restraint. High intensity with multiple loops and rolls. The dangling-feet design and the inversions make this one of the more demanding rides in the park.
5. Mr. Freeze: Reverse Blast
Type: Launched coaster | Height: 54" | Transfer: Yes
A magnetic launch to around 70 mph, a vertical spike, and a run that travels backward. Must transfer into an over-the-shoulder restraint. The sudden launch and the backward section are intense, so this is not a starter coaster for nervous or sensory-sensitive riders.
6. Aquaman: Power Wave
Type: Water coaster | Height: 48" | Transfer: Yes
A launched water coaster that shoots forward and backward up two towers before a big splashdown, reaching about 63 mph. Must transfer into the seat, and a supplemental restraint harness is used. You will get wet, so plan for that with any equipment or devices you carry. Short, intense, and very splashy.
7. The Joker
Type: Free-fly coaster | Height: 48" (max 77", 300 lb limit) | Transfer: Yes
A free-fly coaster where the seats flip and rotate as you ride, giving unpredictable head-over-heels drops. Must transfer into the seat and step up into the ride vehicle. This ride lists strict extremity requirements, no prosthetics, and no leg casts, so read the sign carefully. Riders using the Access Pass, including wheelchair and ECV users, enter through THE FLASH Pass entrance.
8. Shock Wave
Type: Looping coaster (1978) | Height: 42" | Transfer: Yes
A classic steel looping coaster with back-to-back vertical loops, a park landmark since 1978. Must transfer into the over-the-shoulder restraint. Built before the Americans with Disabilities Act, so Access Pass guests navigate the entrance ramp both in and out. An older, more jarring ride than the newer steel coasters.
9. Runaway Mine Train
Type: Mine train coaster | Height: 42" | Transfer: Yes
A gentle mine-train coaster and a park original, a good step up for younger riders who clear 42 inches. Must transfer into a lap-bar seat. Low speed with no inversions and only modest drops, so a comfortable ride for adults who want something mild and a solid family choice.
