eskater132 Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 I went to SFoT and this dude told me it'll open up in about a week from the date to the left
okinawaboy11 Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 Went to SFA yesterday,walked by Joker's Jinx,and sure enough,saw the sign that said that they needed a part replaced,and the part was getting manufactured.(Not that I was planning to ride it even if it was opened).   Why JJ is a great ride.  I went to SFoT and this dude told me it'll open up in about a week from the date to the left  And when is this date?
okinawaboy11 Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 ^ I might just be blind, but I didn't find a date. Â I hate to say it, but the Chiller has more problems than it's worth. I could see it being taken down next year, and a Gerstlauer spinning coaster being put in it's place for 2008 or 2009. Â Pshh, Build a Euro-Fighter instead.
ShannonSomerville Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 To answer your question,YES!! Joker's Jinx is a great ride(and now the only one that is closest to me,since FoF is closed).
CP_RULES Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 I might be going to SFStL this Sunday, does anyone know if Freeze will be open then?
eskater132 Posted July 7, 2006 Posted July 7, 2006 I might be going to SFStL this Sunday, does anyone know if Freeze will be open then? Â Probably not
coasterbilly Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 Chiller is still closed, and they most likely tear Chiller down, it's one of the public's favorite coasters, and many enthusiasts like it too, it always has lines
eskater132 Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 I don't think they'll tear it down, it's a great ride, it's in the top five rollercoasters in that great park!
alpengeist04 Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 ^That doesn't matter, it comes down to $$$$. Plus, Shapiro doesn't like coasters being closed, and Chiller is down more than it's open. I could see them removing it next year and replacing it with a family coaster in 2008 or 2009.
sixflagstloldschool Posted July 8, 2006 Posted July 8, 2006 I might be going to SFStL this Sunday, does anyone know if Freeze will be open then? Â Possibly the 12th or 13th, Shapiro here on the 14th so they are shooting before he gets here! But I doubt it! Really depends on the Chiller. Modifications were made to SFSTL freeze, but were waiting for the all clear by SFCorp Engineers that have to inspect.
okinawaboy11 Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Reasonable cause for Bump-age. Â JJ is now open. But they have only been running one train (The Purple one) even on the busiest days. Â So I guess they still have yet to fix the yellow train.
eskater132 Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Awesome, so then Mr. Freeze may be running one train, I hope it's open when I go tomorrow, 7/27/06
weatherkid17 Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I went to SFOT 7/26. Still not open. I did call six flags, and the people there were told it would reopen in the fall.
okinawaboy11 Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 ^ Maybe its just the Spaghetti Bowl coasters that are open.
Warlord694 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 SFSTL Mr Freeze has been testing this week with new train. Hopefully will be cleared to run tonight. I will update in the AM.
CP_RULES Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 ^WOO HOO! I was worried Id never get to ride it again, what took so long?
adc9787 Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 Thats really good the Mr. Freeze is re-opening, but, does anyone know if the Mr. Freeze at SFOT is going to open also this weekend. Just a hope! Â -Andrew
eskater132 Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 SFSTL Mr Freeze has been testing this week with new train.Hopefully will be cleared to run tonight. I will update in the AM. Â OH THANK GOD, I HOPE THIS MEANS SFOTS WILL OPEN SOON!!! Â got any pics of the new train, or is it the same (design)??? Â oh, and is it going to have the LIMS facing down like the italian job, or the same?
Warlord694 Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Well it is not new trains, just the old ones repaired. It does seem to ride much smoother. I could not tell if underneath was all new, it was hard to see but no visable changes or new parts showing. I'll add some pics when I download them.
