bgr861509 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 I really hope that Zumanjaro is open on September 6th, because I will be at SFGA for Riding of the Bull. That is one of my goals for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonlee Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 I wonder what happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlickMittens Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 I was there yesterday, VERY disappointed that Zumanjaro was closed, as I got there at park opening to ride it for the 1st time without waiting forever! I think Six Flags needs to do a better job of updating ride statuses. There should be a page that just has all ride operating statuses on the website. One line of text on each individual ride page is very easy to miss! Lucky for me, I live close, have a pass, and can go whenever, but I could see how something like this would really upset people travelling from far and away lands to get a ride on a new attraction like that. I was talking to a ride attendant at another ride, and he said he wasn't 100% sure, but thinks they were working on something with the restraint system. Has anyone had any problems/discomfort/issues with the restraints in their ride experience on Zu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgetAround Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Could just be routine maintenance, it doesn't seem like something major happened but you never know. A lot of times after a new ride has been opened for a little over a month they may just want to do a complete check up on it and comb through everything looking for signs of unusual wear, unusual marks or trends developing in the mechanics, etc. Best to do this ahead of time before any underlying issues developing make themselves known in other ways....

jdc12192 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Didn't find any discomfort with the restraints and actually found them pretty comfortable. I forget where I read it but somewhere said they heard it may have been struck during a storm which may have made something go out of wack.

SlickMittens Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Interesting, like you said IgetAround, could just be it's checkup now that everything has had a few weeks to settle in. Hopefully it's fixed soon, I want to be terrified by it before fright fest haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonlee Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Great Adventure doing something preventative? That would be smart. Fix any issues before they become a major problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyc98 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 (edited) I am currently at the park and i can report Zumanjaro is in fact open. Haven't riden yet to see if they changed anything though. Update: just rode in car 2. Did not find any difference done to the restraints to maybe it was just general maintenance.
