Everything's Broken at Six Flags Great Adventure | April 2021 Vlog

We didn't have the best luck at Great Adventure, as most rides that we waited for broke at one point or another, leading to a frustrating visit. The rain later that afternoon didn't help either...

[@ethanhcomposer]

El Toro was closed during my visit and it sucked Ops were bad during spring break, and Bizzaro had a 5-7 minute dispatch I also sat on the brake run on Batman for at least 5 minutes too

[@jayson7136]

Only bizzaro was closed Friday, Superman was shut down most of the day but some people went on it (not me). The gp loves the joker here for no reason no matter how bad it is and how much it’s closed. Kingda ka and zoominjaro was even open Friday (first ride of both, it took me long enough) come back in like May-July there will be shorter waits and most rides open every day, plus jersry devil will prolly be open by july

[@MessyMondanoGaming]

I went the first Monday it was open and got great rides on almost everything, I even got to see a rollback on Kingda Ka while i was in line

[@rubygln4696]

We came the first Monday after opening with ridiculous winds in the morning. The first big coaster to open was GL like a good 45 minutes after opening. One train operations on pretty much everything except for Nitro which had 3 that stacked and had us on the brake run for a few minutes, it also started running like 3 hours after opening. Waited like an hour with one train operations for Bizzaro, the longest line of the day besides superman which we waited until the end of the day to ride. Also, 10-minute operations on Wonder Woman? Our salvation was a front-row ride on kingda ka, which I had never ridden before, and because it's been 3 years since I've ridden dragster, it was an absolutely incredible experience. But at least Batman was consistent.

[@pappaslivery]

Went there last week. It rained in the morning. Bizarro was running great, hit mine Train for the credit.... Holy cow what a rough horrible ride

[@thomastucker9272]

Dragster and Ka may be super short and one trick ponies but I have them both in my top 10 just for the launches notnin competes to those launches especially dragsters with just lap bars

[@kingmo8789]

Will you do a el toro review as soon as you get to ride it?

[@CoasterStudios]

I reviewed El Toro years ago, but I am looking to do an updated review. I will post that following the next time I'm able to get on it

[@nazjai9333]

I was here in April during there night event & I was so happy el toro was open. I love that ride but I definitely save it for last because I’m usually sore after. I went back last week & el toro was closed I heard it came off the tracks recently

[@Stampida9]

Taylor, have you seen that Monster at Grona Lund is now running! Off topic, sorry, I'm just excited :)

[@timmyn8575]

I only like Green Lantern in the front. The rest of it hurts my head so bad. Nitro at night is the best. It’s pitch black in the back. I went the first day it opened this year and got on 8 coasters and Womder Woman.

[@daltoncady4038]

My very first ride on twisted cyclone went like how close you cut it with kingda ka. Literally pulled into the station and it went down.

[@edbarker8636]

El Toro was my favorite there

[@Gelunix]

Didn't watch the whole thing yet, but I was here on the 8th and they were triple stacking trains on Nitro.. :/ everything else was either a 5 min wait or walk on but I sat in the Nitro line for about an hour because of their ops. Not sure if that's usually what they do as there is a mid course on the ride but everything else was fine for me.

[@authordjl7474]

Same as the stacking at Batman, it's because of short staffing. When schools start to let out and more people are available to work, coasters will have enough employees to put on a grouper and speed up dispatches.

[@rheaton78]

I was there opening weekend and the dispatch times are horrible! Hope it gets better

[@Rev-drain]

hey can you give me kings dominion ride suggestions

[@fearme7184]

I was there a few days ago and marathoned half the rides including kingda ka with my friend

[@jeffc1347]

The biggest problem with Six Flags parks is that season passes are so cheap that people keep buying them, if everyone just decided they were fed up with this nonsense and stopped going these companies would have to get their act together. I voted with my wallet and stopped going to Six Flags parks after 2018 its just not worth the frustration.

[@shaynak745]

What a bummer that so many rides were closed. 😣 Fun fact: I’ve always been a coaster enthusiast so my kids were all introduced early to them. Last year, we went to SFGA and my youngest daughter, who was 9, was actually tall enough to ride all of the coasters. She was so tired of being the only one who couldn’t ride so she was excited to ride them all. The one I was worried about was KK so I told her if she could handle Nitro, I’d let her ride KK. 😏 Well, not only did she handle Nitro, she LOVED IT so we headed over to KK. We were next in line and it broke down!! She was so bummed so we decided to wait it out and after about 15 minutes, it was up and running again. She had a blast!!

@leela no one but hopefully my comment will help other parents not be so scared to allow their kids to ride these larger coasters. The younger they can ride, the better as long as they are safe and fit the weight and height of the ride.

I really wanna see a Jersey Devil POV, that animation looks sooooo speedy, wonder if it's just as forceful as it seems.

[@zander_19]

I came to the park the same day u were there and the main reason why operations were so terrible was because they weren’t allowed to run the trains unless everyone had their mask on, which some people had problems with.

[@CoasterStudios]

I can believe that

[@staringcorgi6475]

Why if they don't wear a mask six flags should kick them out of the ride

[@Porcf81]

I’ve got to say, you are a class act. Being completely sleep deprived and face with so many disappointments, you did a good job keeping a great attitude and not hating on the park. I’ve been in that exact situation and it can be tough. There is a reason I avoid parks early in the season. LOL.

[@CoasterStudios]

Thank you. I try to always look on the positive side of things and try to understand what the reason is for us not having the “perfect day” and look at what would’ve made it better. It’s not always in our control (aka, weather), and there’s nothing the park can do about that. It just happens sometimes!

[@JeroldBoy0407]

You don’t even wanna know how many times I pulled an all nighter. And one of those times was the day before I went to the Great America. I didn’t even scream on the coasters, I just sat there with a straight face

When I went, El Toro, Kingda Ka, and Bizarro were closed. I am yet to ride any of those. Sorry you didn't have a great time.

[@therock238360]

Kingda Ka being down isn’t too surprising because it’s infamous for that. Bizzaro has the occasional downtime but not as bad as Kingda Ka. Every trip to Great Adventure I’ve been on except for the latest one, El Toro was up and running the entire day. On my latest trip during Hollowfest in October, El Toro was down most of the day, they did test runs with dummies but that was it. Finally reopened towards the end of the night and I got my first night ride on El Toro, it was amazing
