YoshiFan Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 Yeah it seems random when they close it off or keep it open. I have seen it open with a 10 minute wait and closed when there is a 45 minute wait. It's also so far in the queue when it's a really long line it won't save much time and seems to work best when it is a 15 to 20 minute wait when you can usually walk right on using the single rider line. Zumanjaro's single rider line seems to vary. Sometimes they take 3 or 4 people per cycle other times 0 or 1 so I only use it if there are around 15 or less people in line.
Genx24 Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 FYI, Green Lantern's single rider line doesn't begin until you're about halfway through the normal queue, so it really doesn't offer much relief from the stand-by line. Edit: Just remembered that Zumanjaro's SRL isn't very helpful, either. There were a couple of times last year where I waited at least an hour in the stand-by line, and still boarded before people waiting in the much shorter single rider line. I wish GAdv had more, and better SRL's, because they were a life (and time) saver for me when I visited Magic Mountain
thecoasterdude Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Wing coaster rumor! This was on the survey and was sent to ONLY GREAT ADVENTURE, unlike the 4D free-fly. https://instagram.com/p/35HMsCsi47/ Thoughts?
KarlaKoaster Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 My thought is that it is nice that so many parks recently seem to be willing to make a go of duelling coasters after Universal gave up on duelling Dragon's Challenge. I think Wingriders would be really well suited to duelling, but I guess it's just one of many ideas they're exploring at the moment?
Superbatboy Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 A dueling wing coaster? How much space would they need for that????
Brassinthegrass Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Not much when each track is only 1,500 feet... I'll believe it when I see it...
RideofSteel Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Wing coaster rumor! This was on the survey and was sent to ONLY GREAT ADVENTURE, unlike the 4D free-fly. https://instagram.com/p/35HMsCsi47/ Thoughts? That's so obviously fake. "Please reply down below about Krypt down below." No official Six Flags survey would have this large of a grammar mistake.
thecoasterdude Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 Their probably gonna cut down lots of trees near the picnic grove and the water tower. They have a few acres of space, good for a wingrider.
IntaminLove Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 It sounded fake after reading the first sentence then it was 100% confirmed in my mind when Movietown was mentioned.
michaellynn4 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 Fake fake fakity fake fake fake. Park was pretty crowded today. Long lines on almost every attraction. #captainobvious
neil009 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 If SFGAdv got a wing coaster it would most likely be an X Flight clone. Why spend money on a new layout?
JaYmoNeY12 12 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 I know this isn't part of the 2016 debate, but im going to the park on Saturday and wanted to get just one ride on el diablo. Is it true that the wait for it has exceeded 2 hours? I know it's new but I'm not waiting that long for it.
michaellynn4 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 With a full queue, the wait was about 50-60 minutes. Anyone telling you two hours was exaggerating.
njcoasterguy34 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 You know what I'd like to see Great Adventure add? A coaster like Pandemonium at SFNE. I rode that for the first time on Saturday and really enjoyed it.
JaYmoNeY12 12 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 With a full queue, the wait was about 50-60 minutes. Anyone telling you two hours was exaggerating. That's more reasonable, thanks
michaellynn4 Posted June 15, 2015 Posted June 15, 2015 You know what I'd like to see Great Adventure add? A coaster like Pandemonium at SFNE. I rode that for the first time on Saturday and really enjoyed it. I wouldn't mind seeing that, either, but the same "low-capacity" argument exists there, as well. That's more reasonable, thanks Anytime.

Chris27 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 Dont get the hate for a 4D spinner. GA has everything else, a wing or a 4D is what they dont have so either one I'd take and be happy with.
njcoasterguy34 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 I wouldn't mind a wing coaster, either. I'm just not a big fan of spinning head over heels at random.
JaYmoNeY12 12 Posted June 16, 2015 Posted June 16, 2015 I'm usually not the flipping type either, but it's a very unique experience and there's only 1 other in the U.S. I really wanna try it.
Vtafro Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 Well I saw a photo in the mess of this thread somewhere, but does anyone know the opening date for batman backwards?
michaellynn4 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 It was marketed as July 3rd. I don't think it's changed, but you never know with the park.
Genx24 Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 ^ I don't know if that is the case anymore. I was at the park Wednesday, and for all the signs they have up for their July 4th weekend celebration, not one makes mention of Batman backwards. That strikes me as odd.
Athletekim Posted June 19, 2015 Posted June 19, 2015 I haven't been keeping up with this thread lately and tried going back a few pages to see if my question was mentioned but didn't see it due to all the talk about the coaster rumors, and etc... How has Nitro's trains been this year? I remember reading last year that one train had a rattle to it and wanted to know if it got solved during the off-season. Luckily last year I always avoided that train but was just curious to know before I head down to the park next week.
