Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion ThreadP. 1928: Calypso Springs coming to Hurricane Harbor!Users viewing this topic: No registered users and 8 guests Re: Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion ThreadDoes Joker usually run 3 for Holiday? SFNE ran their's at fill capacity. Granted it's the star attraction at SFNE this time of year.

That said, the ride always sh*ts itself by the end of the event when it gets really cold. Maybe the operational changes are related to that? If it's just a desire to keep the ride units in motion as much as possible and not stacked on the brake run in the cold I could see the benefit.
... or they just want to get a jumpstart on refurb. ![]() Re: Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion ThreadI'm amazed by all the problems by the one at Great Adventure. SFNE's ran just fine in the cold last year.
I think Great Adventure's Joker has been closed on all but 1-2 of my visits since it opened. Top 5 Wood- Lightning Rod, Phoenix, Boulder Dash, Wildfire, Outlaw Run

Great Adventure doesn't use heaters on any of it's coasters.
Re: Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion Thread^ That's surprising, but would explain it. I assumed New Jersey would have them too.
That takes serious cahones running a hyper coaster without heaters in December. ![]() Top 5 Wood- Lightning Rod, Phoenix, Boulder Dash, Wildfire, Outlaw Run

Thanks for sharing! Looks like they went all out for Christmas this year. Love what they did to the carousel and the giant walk through snowman.
Re: Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion ThreadHoliday in the Park looks great!
Any idea if the theater show is the same one as they did for Halloween but with different music and costumes? Your description sounds the same. Apparently we're getting the coldest Thanksgiving temperatures in over 100 years. I dont think the rides can handle 15 degrees??? Re: Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion ThreadGreat report Larry. I gotta get over there soon. Maybe this wknd.
Re: Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion Thread
The park is closed that day anyway. Also, you’re looking at the low temperature which is generally reached in the middle of the night if at all. Re: Six Flags Great Adventure (SFGAdv) Discussion ThreadNot to mention Nitro has run at 19 degrees. I think we could push it down to 15 if we really tried.
