coasterbill Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 5 hours ago, Canobie Coaster said: Six Flags Discovery Kingdom is responding on Facebook that Harley Quinn is no longer an operating attraction at the park. Very rarely do I celebrate the removal of a ride. This one is one of them. Was it ever really an “operating” attraction? That seems a bit generous. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I saw it operate for one hour during a visit late in 2018. And the whole park knew it was operating between the ride's loud scream and the screams of pain from riders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canobie Coaster Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Looks like Ride Entertainment has a used skywarp available for sale for immediate delivery from California. I'm almost certain this is Harley Quinn. I'm surprised they went with an animation over actual ride footage, but I'm guessing footage of the ride operating was rare. And the video is quieter with that background music than it would be if the ride were actually running. The one weird thing with the animation is that it shows the ride operating with just one half of the train. Maybe that's just an accidental omission in the animation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I'm actually a bit surprised they are selling it. It must have a dirt cheap price tag for anyone to pick this up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Weird about the one ride vehicle... it's almost as-if they realized that forcing the park that bought it to needlessly hire at least one additional employee to staff a second station at all times that exists for no reason was a feature that nobody wanted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disownedpear Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Damn no more combined speed of 70mph. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Friendly reminder that daily ops start Friday! Daily ops at California's Great America start... never. Was this just a cheap excuse to rip on Cedar Fair some more? The world may never know. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryder Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I was just at this park a few days ago, and it's super disappointing that it 1) still requires reservations 2) every single flat ride is closed (exception for Penguin and some kiddie rides), and 3) most shows were not performing, including the Odin's Temple. Harley Quinn is still standing. Superman and Wonder Woman never opened as far as I saw, but left by around 2, because there was literally nothing left to do. Plus, it was super hot. Also, does The Flash: Vertical Velocity ever operate anymore? The last 3 times I've been at this park, it's never been open and usually undergoing heavy maintenance. Didn't see any progress on the site of the new coaster. The only perks were that it did have an open Freestyle Coke machine (SFMM still has not opened theirs), and the food on mobile ordering was surprisingly fairly efficient--though it may have been more luck, haha. Also, wasn't very crowded... but can't say I'm surprised when they still require reservations for a park that barely has anything open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jray21 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Thanks for the heads up. We're going next week, we won't expect much now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBru Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I was there last Monday and the Flash's train wasn't even on the track. (It was the same situation when I visited in Fall of 2018.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grsupercity Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 So I have finally got Six Flagsed. I have always had good and fun experiences with the brand. I was always the one in their corner rooting for them. Well my perception has changed a little....I looked into flying from Michigan to San Francisco to visit Great American and Discovery Kingdom. The weekend I wanted to fly showed both parks open. Intentions were to fly in Friday Morning and visit Six Flags. California's Great America would be the next day Saturday and we would fly back to Michigan Sunday Morning. I checked the websites a week later and both parks were showing open. I bought the Great America tickets for Saturday. Went to Discovery Kingdoms website and the park showed open and let me purchase tickets for Friday. I then bought the plane tickets, reserved a car and booked the hotel. Fast forward a few weeks later and I go back to Discovery Kingdoms website to look into flash passes and now that day is showing closed. After a few emails and phone messages they finally email me back and confirmed the park is closed on the day of my visit now since they changed their operating schedule. They removed every Friday out of February. I explained to them that I booked a whole trip around visiting the park on that Friday. They told me because of the circumstances that they will issue me a new ticket for any day since my current ticket is dated that Friday. I explain to them that traveling back from Michigan in the next year realistically not an option. After many back and forths they are still refusing to refund my tickets. So I guess all the way from Michigan to Cali just for Great America. Have a six flags day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 ^Ugh, sorry to hear that. We ran into a very similar issue with SFFT! I thought we were already past all the schedule cuts but I guess not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moviemansig Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Here is a trip report for Saturday. Sidewinder Safari experienced a delay in operation while I was in line for it. You could hear the sound of birds chirping, although I don't think there were actual birds. The ride was fun with twists and u-turns, although bumpier than I anticipated. Starting in the afternoon, the lines moved slowly. Thrilla Gorilla and The Flash: Vertical Velocity were closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
