What is this said learning curve. I've never been on a Stand Up since they removed Iron Wolf at my home park

First of all, I think someone didn't get there morning coffee and is a little grumpy. Second, I think 750 pph is very low, considering that's the maximum possible capacity. Usually the actual capacity is lower than that. If it takes 1:30 to load two trains, the capacity would be 640 pph. Thats not including any kinks, breakdowns, people vomiting on the trains, etc.

They've added a taller one on the 148th floor this year. Its 1800 feet up.

More Flags=More Fun? Finally here! We hit X Flight First because it was brand new and we didn't want to wait in the long lines The line was actually only 15 minutes, not bad for Six Flags! My Turn! Probably one of my favorite coasters in the park. You just cant beat a good B&M! The new X shop. X flight got in the way of my American Eagle shot Car ride from the que of American Eagle Funnel cake tastes better at a theme park This ride makes me want to puke just looking at it.....Or maybe it was just the funnel cake.. Coming to clean my vomit!! Nah, just kidding. They really are pushing that image of the "cleanest park in the world" though. The black tarmac makes it 10 degrees warmer. Perfect conditions for a ride on Loggers Run! Time to relax You actually get some airtime in the back row! A visit to Great America wouldn't be complete without a ride on the Whizzer! As tempting as it was...we decided to save our and spend it on something else, so thanks but no thanks We see you Sky Tower! There was a cool model of GA in 1978 in the gift shop. I see Tidal Wave. I don't know this just made me laugh for some reason. Sponsorship from Mike Ditka or something Batman Love the theming on this ride These balloons are big and easy That was a terrible caption I personally think as a superhero Batman>Superman. As coasters, however. You just can't beat this awesome ride! One mess of track! You just can't beat this awesome ride! The mechanism that tilts the riders Found this thing in the gift shop of Superman. It creeped me out. Didn't take a picture of the outside of the Dark Knight coaster, so here's a blurry picture of the inside instead! I'm a big fan of subway maps and roller coasters. So I give this coaster 2 thumbs up! Too bad this ride was closed Random Demon Picture TAKE THE TUNNEL!! Now for my favorite coaster in the park! The Que The oh crap moment Whee!! Station Shot Giant Drop time! Theming! When i first rode this I thought that little track was a kiddie coaster...true story! This coast me ..... More money to spend on goodies! from saving my money instead of spending it on a second funnel cake! I'll just end this update with a picture of the iconic double decker carousel. Thanks for reading my first update! Decided to make my first trip report from Six Flags Great America when I went in August 2012. This is my first one so bear with me Happy Riders
