If a new coaster was put in bizarros place, the entrance for the ride could be closer to the arena instead of all the way in the back. I think the only time i waited in line for it was when it was reopened. I almost always get right on. I like it because it was the first of it's kind.

New family coaster

I hope i can make it to the park to see this! It should be a permanent part of the park. I wonder if vintage replica shirts, pins, postcards can be made so that it can sell things and generate some form of revenue. If they did that, then they would need to hire an employee to run the sales.

^^good to know. Still haven't had the chance to go. I've just been so busy. This has been the worst year for me. Usually I go at least 20 times. This year i've only been 3 times!!

I have not been on it yet (hopefully this week or weekend) but i see it as i see KIngda Ka. I will enjoy it but will not wait more than 15 minutes to ride it.

Regardless, something needs to be done about old country. Does the roof for Zumanjaro only go down when Kingda Ka is running? Does it go up and down between cycles? That would be another issue. If that gets stuck open, Kingda Ka won't run. If they can improve stability of the ride so both can run together, then they can go back to the original plan and it won't be such a waste. This is still the first season for the ride so there will be bugs they have to work out.

I have never seen anything too bad at Great Adventure just the line cutting.

heard the commercial on the radio and they're still saying "attached to the worlds tallest and fastest roller coaster Kingda Ka".

That's my plan also. Do those two early. So now my order will be Zumanjaro, Kingda Ka, Superman, then Green Lantern.

if velcro is ok then i'm good to go!

^^^ wow^^^

It's very difficult to find zippered shorts! They will kick you out of line if they see you put stuff in your pocket? So I can't have my cell phone out while in line? I secure my phone and my sunglasses in my cargo pockets and they've never even come close to falling out. I wonder if they will also cut the tress around bizarro? I once hit my hand on a branch by the camera. I thought I broke my thumb it hurt so much.

I like how it says no re-entry. How would they know?

They might want to consider going back to the 4 station set up for KK. Since they need to launch when Zumanjaro is down, they should load all 4 at once while Zumanjaro is running and launch them while Zumanjaro is loading. That would ensure that as many trains as possible were ready to go when they had the time.

 

The length of that queue looks long enough that you would need backpacking gear to get out there. Knowing how long it takes to walk Superman's queue, I can't imagine the hike to Zumanjaro.

I wonder if the time it takes to load Zumanjaro, 2-3 kingda ka trains can launch?

Season pass preview july 7-11. 1030am-12pm! Im working so i'm going to miss it!

Wish I went! Thought it was gonna be super busy cuz of holiday and opening day for the ride. I didn't even think about the weather

It sounds like to me that the inspector said he was going to show but never did. Everybody was expecting him, even on media day they were waiting.

It does seem strange that all of this wasn't thought out more. Great Adventure knows how difficult New Jersey can be. Great Adventure should've anticipated this and plan ahead. Now what would happen if Great Adventure just said screw it and run the ride anyway? Would it just be a fine or can they shut down the park? Can sixflags sue nj for lost revenue?

Uggh....so tomorrow is a no go for season pass holders? Facebook said they will announce a season pass preview day.

How come the ride was in operation for the commercial but can't be for the public? I thought that when people ride it, it's good to go!

I think i'm more excited about this than Zumanjaro! Can't wait to see it! Will there be anything on sale?

Will it operate in the rain?

How hot it gets at Great Adventure, there's no sure way to cool off other than water around the park (showers and that looney toons water tower).
