Alright, earlier today Hauntie brought to my attention a new ride arriving at Six Flags Great Adventure, the Zumanjaro Drop of Doom!
What I wanted to ask people is, who would be interested in doing a TAB get-together in the NJ area for a couple nights? Thinking we could meet up either on a Friday, hit the park on Saturday, and do our traditional big "Breakfast before Departing" last hooray on Sunday and head home. Some of us with longer travels could even come on Thursday and do something in the area for some cheap entertainment (like a bowling adventure?!). By splitting rooms / discounted group rates for tickets it would be cheaper for more people! People can bring their significant others/wives/husbands, siblings, fun traveling companions and the sort! We could all stay at the same hotel and play a bunch of games and create some pretty awesome memories like we do at every gathering!
I'm personally fond of the weekends of September 12th or 19th, but dates are potentially flexible for October. Just something for people to keep in their minds and start thinking about and talking about. There is a "Flash Pass" system that we could take advantage of for faster lines. And if you're someone who doesn't like rides, Caroline will be standing right there with ya! (She hates rides... So I need you guys to come so I can play!)
Post here for those who are interested and to toss some ideas around! I know it seems like forever away, but the earlier we plan, the more people who potentially can attend!!!
Alright, earlier today Hauntie brought to my attention a new ride arriving at Six Flags Great Adventure, the Zumanjaro Drop of Doom!
It’s official. Coming in 2014, Six Flags Great Adventure will introduce Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom, a brand new record-breaking drop ride feature breathtaking views, impressive heights, astonishing speeds, stomach-tightening drops, and an adrenaline rush like no other. It will be the tallest drop tower in the world, lifting riders up 415 feet in the air and rocketing back down at 90 miles per hour.
First, your eight-person gondola will blast to the top of the 415-foot structure in approximately 30 seconds. You’ll pause for a moment to check out the aerial view of the park and anticipate the rapid heart-racing plummet coming up next. Everything soon becomes a blur as gravity pulls your gondola downwards at 90 miles per hour, reaching ground level again in less than 10 seconds — before you even have time to scream.
The three soaring Zumanjaro towers will share their structure and be built on the face of the record-breaking Kingda Ka coaster. As you rise and fall along the vertical track, the Kingda Ka steel trains will be thundering around the track at 128 miles per hour at the same time.
Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom was inspired by the African theme of Safari Off Road Adventure, last summer’s new attraction that created the world’s largest theme park. While waiting to board Zumanjaro, guests will pass an all-new animal area, where they can watch native African Anubis baboon play and interact in their habitat.
To make room for the newest addition to Six Flags Great Adventure, we must bid farewell to a classic. Rolling Thunder, our classic wooden coaster, will close to the public on September 8 to help make way for construction of the new ride. New technological advances and preferences have created a new generation of thrill rides, and Rolling Thunder’s popularity has decreased over the years. Be sure to tackle this coaster’s 85-foot drop and 10 dipping hills before it slips into history.
The extreme Zumanjaro: Drop of Doom is set to debut in spring 2014. Are you ready to take on this all-new drop ride?
