^ I have never seen the Flash Pass sell out at Six Flags New England (or any Six Flags park for that matter). I don't think they use the video at any of the parks anymore. I saw it when I got a Flash Pass at Great Adventure back in 2010, but I haven't had to watch it at any other Six Flags park. I think the fact half the people in the Flash Pass line have the membership skip-the-line vouchers instead of the Q-bots may have contributed to that.

^ Wasn't the problem with Green Lantern that the seats would enter the station upside down and they needed maintenance to flip them back? I remember the ops in Grona Lund being able to flip them on their own, but not at SFMM. I think that's why they neutered the flipping to prevent this scenario, which resulted in a painful ride.

Can we take a moment to appreciate that Great Adventure may now have the two best drops in the country? The violent ejector air of El Toro's drop was matched by the original Raptor clones. And now that Jersey Devil has a 50% longer train, I'm already salivating over the power of that airtime in the back row. For the love of god no. This ride is in one of the darkest areas of the park, they need to just do what they usually do an leave it dark AF so the night rides are as good as (or even better than) Nitro. There will be lights up the lift, which is in the middle of the ride. Hopefully they just leave it at that. I'm praying they leave some of the trees and don't just clear out the entire area before construction. This. With this ride's location, night rides could be insane.

If they let the seats actually flip, this could be a great ride. -
Guess I'll be going to Great America's water park the next time I visit! I do hope this one has more standard drops than the one Fiesta Texas added a few years ago since that one really only had the saucer turns for the downhill bits. Out of curiosity, what was the previous record holder for the tallest water coaster?

Yeah Behemoth is the best of the Cedar Fair hypers by far. -

I think it's more the layout. Intimidator can really crawl if the trims are on and I've always found Diamondback's second half to do the same. I agree Behemoth powers through its layout.
