bgr861509 Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Even though, I have not experienced Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom yet, I can say that it will be in my top 5 things to do in my next visit. My top rides at Great Adventure are Nitro (my favorite coaster at GA), El Toro (my second favorite, but # 1 if this was March Madness), Kingda Ka (even though it is like a 30 second commercial, it's just a little too quick), Bizarro (underrated, but so cool at night), and the fifth one is tough to choose between Batman and Zumanjaro. Zumanjaro was on the Channel 11 News this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFGadv123 Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 It was definitely a pretty cool ride. I'll have to ride it a few more times to properly rank it, but as of now this would be the top 5. 5. Skyscreamer 4. Bizarro 3. Zumanjaro 2. Nitro 1. El Toro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonlee Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThemeParkRider Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Didn't make my top 5 but I don't have anything against it. Its not one of those rides that I would wait more than a few minutes for and I consider my top 5 to include that. I personally think the ride may have been a little over-hyped but I understand the park has to do what it has to do to get the guests in.

Andrew M Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 1. Nitro 2. El Toro 3. Bizarro 4. Batman: The Ride 5. TDKC All of these rides I end up doing whenever I visit the park, they're reliable, and they never have too long of a line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 1. El Toro 2. Nitro 3. Bizarro 4. Skull Mountain 5. Superman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC98 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) 5. Batman the Ride 4. Bizarro 3. Kingda Ka (the launch still gets my adrenaline going more than just about any other coaster, even if the ride is short) 2. Nitro 1. El Toro I haven't gotten to ride Zumanjaro yet though, once I ride it my rankings might change. Edited August 13, 2014 by RC98 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonlee Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 After finally riding it, i liked it a lot but it didnt make my top five because it's not a ride i would wait a long time for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertleax Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 My Top 5... 1...El Toro 2...Nitro 3...Superman 4...Kingda Ka 5...Zumanjaro My picks are based on having not to wait in a long line... It would be different when going on a normal day when lines are longer on certain rides. For example I love Superman but would not wait an hour for it. If Superman had an hour wait and Skull Mountain has a 10 minute wait, I would rather ride Skull Mountain 5 times than Superman once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonlee Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I haven't worked out which order i'd go on now. On a regualr day i'm thinking hit Kingda Ka first, then Zumanjaro, Superman, and Green Lantern. Those seem to have the longest waits. Even though I went on early and the line wasn't long, the wait for Zumanjaro wasn't bad. The line moved quickly. By the time I rode it twice, the line for Superman was at least 30min and Kingda ka looked pretty long also. It's hard to tell with Kingda Ka because you really can't see the line.

KK456 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Ive rode one of the many "Drop Tower" drop towers at Cedar Fair parks and it was 230 feet and it was terrifying. I hadn't rode Zumanjaro yet even though I had the chance to because it was late and I had just waited 2 hours for Kingda Ka. But the concept of a 415 foot drop tower is crazy. I hope I get to ride it soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro1118 Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 I'd go... 1) El Toro 2) Nitro 3) Kingda Ka 4) Batman 5) Bizarro S:UF and Zumanjaro could go in the 5th spot as well, depending on my mood. I like Zumanjaro but there is 0 "stomach-in-throat" sensation, which makes it feel like a really fast parachute drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertleax Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Ive rode one of the many "Drop Tower" drop towers at Cedar Fair parks and it was 230 feet and it was terrifying. I hadn't rode Zumanjaro yet even though I had the chance to because it was late and I had just waited 2 hours for Kingda Ka. But the concept of a 415 foot drop tower is crazy. I hope I get to ride it soon I'm terrified of heights and drop towers but I still ride them. And the funny thing is that I prefer Zumanjaro over other drop towers. I believe that it's because when going up, it's in relationship to Kingda Ka which is huge and long in lengTh so when looking forward I don't feel as high up. And the drop does not seem as bad either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungPup Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 I like Zumanjaro but there is 0 "stomach-in-throat" sensation, which makes it feel like a really fast parachute drop. Can somebody confirm this? I'm terrified to go on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertleax Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 He is pretty much right. Like I said before I hate heights and drops but everytime i'm at the park I go on it thinking that this is the time that the ride will get to me. The last few times when it dropped I would look at one of my kids to see there expressions (my daughter loves heights and my son is like me--- he hesitates on going on but convinces himself to do so) and they both say the same thing that it's not as bad as other drop towers. I believe since it's a longer drop, the initial drop sensation catches up to you so it does not feel like your stomach is in your throat.
