Who is taking bets? I want $100 on the "after"!

I get it that it's news media which is always terribly inaccurate, but the first line of the article... I'm sorry, but how would this be the park's 9th coaster? Are they counting Demon Drop? Two other tidbits confirmed by the article: -It will be steel. -It will be the 4th tallest ride in the park, meaning less than 165 feet. Run wild, speculators.

Works fine for me.

Or even Thunder Run, which I found kinda mediocre.

So, the only ride left from my birth year is done for good...Parachuter's Perch to never reopen. https://www.app.com/story/news/local/jackson-lakewood/jackson/2023/02/15/six-flags-nj-parachute-ride-closed/69907314007/

I will never understand how people can take 2-dimensional footer maps and someone extrapolate an actual layout. I'll believe it when the park makes an announcement or we start to see some actual construction. I'll also laugh if the Township shoots it down, just to stick it to these wild prognosticators. I actually really do want to see Dorney get something (non-Zamperla) new.

It's convoluted, but I managed to get to the QQ pricing for the summer just now. You first need to add a ticket to your cart, then go to the cart, and towards the bottom of that screen you should see a normal QQ option. Right now it's showing $90for Fridays, $100 for Saturdays, and $90 for Sundays in early June.

Personally, I would prefer an empty space. Every Zamperla ride I've ever ridden has had horribly uncomfortable seats/restraints.

From reviewing pictures on RCDB, it doesn't look like there's any special structural considerations for the location. Given that this appears to be a mirror image of Quimera, maybe IB could put them back to back?

While it was being built, thus not fully structurally sound, and as the result of a pretty serious storm, so yeah not the same. Aquaman is taking forever because SF gives zero shits about opening rides with any sort of promptness.

Pretty sure that definition is just a regular "blog" and a "live blog" is, y'know, updated in real time as things are happening..."live." But I'm almost 40, what do I know about these crazy youth terms.

I don't think they understand what the term "live blog" means...but yeah, good for them.

With all of the lunacy coming out of Florida's government recently, can you blame anyone for falling for it? This story is absolutely right in line with DeSantis' playbook and will probably give him the idea to do it for real.

If you watch the video in the blog post that I linked, the constuction manager confirms that there will be re-profiling on the drop and some turns. You don't need to rely on some YouTuber who posts everything for clicks.

I presume you mean a BGT/SWO two-park ticket. If that's the case, yes I bought one back in 2021 through TicketsatWork.com. I don't recall if there was a restriction on using them the same day, but I do know that there was only one printout/barcode that I used. Sorry if this doesn't help.

As someone who frequently likes the back row for the forces but does not particularly like completely not seeing where I'm going, I am not a fan. But it's not a big deal, since I can always sit in the next-to-last-row which is 99% of the time, 99% of the experience.

Side note and a question for the British members - is Jumanji for some reason a big thing over there? Like it's been almost 4 years since the last movie and I don't recall it being any sort of "major event" like the Marvel, Star Wars, or Jurassic releases.

As long I've been going to the park, which started in 2017, it has been tickets only on weekends during the June/July/August.

With fur, no cheap plastic molds.

Everyone's favorite walk-in-time-machine in the middle of nowhere just released their operating calendar for 2023. In other news, Ride-All-Day Wristbands are up to $50 (!) purchased-online-in-advance price. Individual ride prices don't appear to have changed much from last year, but I could be wrong there.

On a more positive note, the park has posted its next update in the Grizzly "Restore the Roar" blog, and despite the obvious newness of their Digital Communications Manager, the video is quite informative. This is going to be more of a Beast-style re-tracking, with re-profiling of the first drop (steeper and longer) and other minor changes to the layout around the course. Gravity Group is doing the work with their "vertical wooden beam" track, but no news yet on new trains or not.

The B&M parts are about the right weight for a train, I would think. As to the name change, very few people outside of the internet even know that other Six Flags parks exist, let alone what rides they may have or what they're called. No one local will care about the Goliath name negatively because every other SF park has something called that. BTW, that video is horrible (like most coaster-related Youtube channels). Saying "Hey guys, here's everything I've heard as rumors...." and ".... that's everything I know for sure that's happening in 2023" about the same exact content is absolutely nonsensical. I feel dumber for having listened to it.

So basically Winterfest minus Delirium and Blue Ridge Tollway plus Apple Zapple. I'm very surprised to not see Racer 75 on this list. I wonder if the list will change as the "off-season" progresses? And though I'm too much to a clutz to ever do it, I'm glad they're continuing the ice skating.

Nice. Though this might be better suited for the Roller Coaster Models forum.

Actually, the park is closed due to the extreme temperatures, as is every other outdoor park in the Northeast that does something for Winter. You should know better than to trust SF app reporting. Though it wouldn't surprise me for SF to completely ignore the well-being of their employees and be operating tonight.
