cwf_777 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Does anyone know when exactly the ride opens? I saw someone post May 27 but I haven't been able to confirm it anywhere. I was hoping someone could help clear this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, except I saw a GP (assuming it was a GP) post a comment on the SFDK FB page that mentioned she saw the opening date on a Youtube video, but I haven't been able to find the video.

I guess they told people the opening date at the last construction tour and lead car unveiling. Anyways it makes sense it's open on the first day of memorial day weekend.

Anyways it makes sense it's open on the first day of memorial day weekend. Memorial Day weekend is generally when Six Flags debuts their new rides, but they have been strangely silent about The Joker. If they were opening it in two weeks, then they would've had the media day already scheduled. Since we haven't heard anything about a media day, it doesn't give me much hope that it will open Memorial Day weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I found this on Twitter: It was in response to the site that posted the Youtube video. Idk why they're not making it super public but it seems more legit now. Hopefully we'll get more information soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk why they're not making it super public but it seems more legit now. Hopefully we'll get more information soon. cool a official source finally. May 27th is the last Ultimate Education Day Last year I was at the park on one of these days and around 2-4PM a lot of feildtrips were heading out of the park. Roar was really packed that day but around 5-7pm the park was actually pretty empty. So that along with it being passholders only it might actually be a pretty good day to check out Joker. also, I hope they add in a single rider line to fill out the trains but knowing SF:DK they likely won't.

VegasBaby Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 also, I hope they add in a single rider line to fill out the trains but knowing SF:DK they likely won't. SFMM had a single rider line and a grouper for Twisted Colossus when it first opened, but they abandoned both of them after a few months. A single rider line makes a lot of sense for the Joker, but seeing how they don't have one for Superman (a ride that really needs it), I doubt we'll see one for Joker.

RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 ^Agreed, but they did match single riders on opening of Superman and on very busy days during its first season. I feel like they'll at least do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mater Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 It looks like it gets a tiny little boost just like TC does before its pre-lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
805Andrew Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 It looks great. I'm not sure if it will be better than Twisted Collossus, but we shall see. I can't wait to ride this when it opens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyRush Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Seems like a real complete coaster. Nice mix of elements. Also the airtime hills look very nice. Can't wait to see reviews! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mater Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 That outward banked hill after the Breaking Wave turn looks like it's going to be one of the surprise WOW moments in the ride. Look at that headchopper you get from the Asian Camelback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mater Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Storm Chaser looks alright. That ending really kills it for me though, I grew up next to Flight Deck so I like me some intense endings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
