Six Flags Over Georgia Trip and Review with the Novak's

[@andrewh4855]

Yes, this was the second Six Flags park built by the company, opening in 1967.

[@jasonwright6034]

Six flags great adventure runs 3 or 4 trains

[@clydeemerson4546]

Yes the first park was in Texas then Georgia

[@blackcatproductions4533]

I love it how the dahlonega mine train is so unique to Georgia because only Georgians can pronounce the name. Dahlonega is the mining capital of the southern Appalachian mountains and is pronounced DAH-LON-A-GA.

[@theweakestlink2278]

Not really. Half of Georgia are northern transplants these days. It's odd going to ATL now.

[@mattrupp1090]

Hey! That’s me! Second to last row left seat on the red train of Twisted Cyclone at 2:42!

[@pinkyblast11]

Matt Rupp your clip made me smile, seemed like you were excited lol how did you like the ride?

[@mattrupp1090]

@@pinkyblast11 It was awesome! Its full of amazing ejector airtime, whippy inversions, and that wave turn is just like that on Lightning Rod! It currently sits at my #13 spot, and my #5 RMC. Great ride!

[@teejayjohnson5843]

You should come back and check out Fright Fest also it's pretty good and holiday in the park is amazing

[@aidangoodwin7031]

I don't feel any rattle when I ride Goliath. Although I've been riding it my whole life, so maybe I'm just used to it.

[@Triveom]

Yeah maybe haha... Its always been so smooth

[@nfcoasterferg]

SFOG is a cool park and now even better that they have an RMC. Mind bender is awesome. Goliath is great. Scorcher is a rare really good stand up. Even GASM is an underrated woodie. Thumbs up.

[@TheCrashley1772]

I'm originally from the Richmond area and used to get season passes to Kings Dominion as a teenager in the 80s. The last time I visited was in '94 when i was in the Navy. I'm in Chattanooga now and will be going to Six Flags over Georgia for the second time this year, next weekend. This weekend, I'm going to Dollywood. Cool video!

[@angelicayeshuah2589]

I can't wait for the 2020 season!! I got my pass and I am ready to ride those rides again.. six flags over georgia is my home park

[@MrJamieBattle]

My first Six Flags park I’ve visited. Love this place.

[@saramooney09]

Going here with my husband next Saturday to celebrate 10 years of marriage. I can't wait!

[@GaryAutwell]

No Batman or mind bender coasters was shown

[@Savag.e]

Gary Autwell mind bender 😍🥰

[@callmemarc]

I went to SFoG for the first time this year as well. Goliath is my favorite B&M hyper I have been on over Diamonback and Intimidator. It does have more rattle than the others but it's also more intense and that downward helix made me almost black out every time.

[@realestateunplugged6129]

callmemarc - That's what i heard! Saw that thing in the video and assumed it must be uphill but Downhill?!? Wild!

[@shaij715]

I went yesterday as well and rode the pandemonium and the dare devil for the first time. It was great.

[@coolbean259]

They gave a pandemonium?🤔🤔

[@Tannerz]

Gosh what day did y'all go? Lines are normally packed. Even during the week days.

[@taylorgunn1500]

Tannerz I went about 2 weeks ago on a Monday & Tuesday. The park surprisingly wasn’t busy at all. I didn’t even have to wait in line to get on rides.

[@dariusowens1060]

I went June 16 it was a Saturday and got to ride all the rides wasn’t that busy

[@aidangoodwin7031]

Sometimes you just get lucky, I've been a few times where there were no lines, and a few times where I barely got to ride anything.

[@cooperbrown940]

I went Monday and the lines weren’t bad at all

[@gpcoasters7824]

Glad you all enjoyed a day on our home turf! Seems like you got some very helpful tips from the viewers. Loved the video!

[@jessicah6712]

Goliath is old so wouldn’t you expect feeling a rattle. If all the other hyper coasters you riden had a rattle, wouldn’t you be used to it. I don’t even notice a rattle because I don’t think about it. Some people expect it in my opinion.

[@heliotropeskies5918]

goliath for its age is actually rly good about rattle, there's a little bit but not so much that it isn't worth sitting through to ride what is one of the better B&M hypers imo

[@EddyMetal60]

Goliath is not that bad. I hate shaky coasters too, and can ride Goliath all day. Your wife is just ultra sensitive. I've never heard anyone complain about Goliath.

[@mr.noride7226]

B&M rattles only bother me when the roller coasters has over the shoulder restraints

[@DisneyMarkUK]

Oohhhhh I’m excited to watch this as we’re visiting from the UK soon, cheers guys

[@zm_art]

Fun fact: Blue Hawk has one of the only 2 sea serpent elements on the planet! It’s the first inversion!

[@cfrankbii9613]

Scream Machine is for the old school wooden coaster lover that likes a rough ride. It’s funny you like Blue Hawk because when it was Ninja they came close to taking it down because it was so rough. New trains saved that ride.

[@theweakestlink2278]

So far as I know it's always been a Six Flags park. Its actually one of the original Six Flags locations opened back in the 60's. I've always heard it was the 2nd park they opened after Six Flags Over Texas.

[@coastercane8130]

I hate when parks only run 1 train..six flags is good for that

[@trey31050]

The Monster mansion was actually the original. It is alleged that after riding the Monster "Plantation" as it used to be called, a group of imagineirs at WDW began creating the Splash Mt. ride based on southern theme with the Brer Rabbit idea. It was one of the park’s original rides then called "Tales of the Okefenokee" in summer of 1967, and was a specific retelling of the Uncle Remus stories of Brer Rabbit. It was refurbished in 1980 to open in summer 1981 as Monster Plantation, getting away from the Brer Rabbit theme adding the monster audio animatronics we see today. It was rumored that the Disney Imagineers that worked on the Splash Mountain Project brought attention to the dark ride at SixFlags over Georgia due to Disney owning the intelectual property of Soung of the south and rather have the legal battle that would be long and drawn out, SixFlags just re-themed the ride. The ride was renamed in 2007 to be named "Monster Mansion" due to cultural sensitivity of the word "plantation" being used referencing the antebellum south and the time of agricultural chattel slavery in the US. Splash Mountain using the Brer Rabbit themeing opened in Walt Disneyland in 1989, Disney world in 1992, and Disneyland Tokyo in 1992.

[@empjustin6560]

Omg it’s Billy from Koaster kids

[@richardrowdyrichlanford2063]

I work at the park & it's the 2nd Six Flags park built. Six Flags Over Texas was the first. They will be open during Fright Fest on Friday's, Saturday's & Sunday's until Halloween then closes & reopens for Holiday in the Park during the Thanksgiving holiday & will remain open until just after the new year. The park looks great during the holidays up all in lights. The Batman, Mindbender, The Joker all in Gotham & Jokers Funhouse coaster were all the coasters you missed & all batman themed as well. The Dahlonega Mine Train is one of the 4 original rides in the park. The other 3 are the Sky Buckets, Log Jamboree & The Train. Monster Mansion was originally a ride based on Joel Chandler Harris's book of folktales which he wrote called Uncle Remus Tales. The ride was called Tales of the Okefenokee and was redone as Monster Plantation (now Monster Mansion). I've added a video link on information on that. I know you'll love it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJjLeX-hprt4ZqM

[@lilqosama3214]

Aha I see me operating the Goliath lol

[@Deuce02339]

If I'm not mistaken the runaway mine cars were one of the first coasters added to the park, it was a childhood favorite but as I grew so did my favorites lol. Haven't been in years(superman was brand new, last time I went) but this video makes me miss it. Also, the "splash mountain" ride is permanently closed and deleted from park maps according to another video I watched a few weeks ago. Glad yall enjoyed it

[@acentruth2042]

Yes Acrophobia, the parks signature drop tower, is waiting on a part to be imported from Europe. Its my favorite drop tower. Its been down for about 2 to 3 weeks now.

[@cheryljust]

It was working when I was there on Friday.

[@2DamnSeddy]

I rode past the park Saturday and the catch car wasn’t sitting at the top of the tower so its safe to say that the part finally arrived. Good thing too because its one of my favorite rides in the park - if you couldn’t tell from my profile photo. 🙂

[@mr.noride7226]

I wish y’all got to ride Mindbender, it is running very good for its age and I have always had good rides on it. Mindbender, Goliath, and Twisted Cyclone are my 3 favorites here.

[@jbsthecoolest]

Does twisted cyclone have different restraints than twisted timbers then?

[@penelopel9470]

It has RMC lap bars. I rode it when I went and It was great and comfortable so yeah!! I'm going next week so yeah. Just like Steel Vengance at Cedar point

[@ave0828]

GA Scorcher is by far the most underrated Stand Up I've been on. So smooth and my knees don't give in like they do on Riddlers Revenge. Riddler still my favorite due to its layout but Scorcher is more enjoyable to ride imo.

[@jamietobin1472]

My daughter and grandson just went and it was pretty dissappointing in a lot of ways. Water park was closed, batman ride got stuck with my grandson on it for quite awhile, not many water misting stations, pretty expensive drink refills and not many refill stations opened at all . Over all we will stick with kings dominion

[@BestAtLosing]

I hate to ask the question, but how big is too big to ride that coaster? I know I'm bigger than Clint based on what I see, so I'm just looking to crush my dreams of riding these things.

[@johndillinger4392]

BestAtLosing that first particular roller coaster is a tight fit

[@benmcsweeney1131]

The mine train is pronounced Da-Lon-U-Gu It’s a town in Georgia

[@Jurassic_Man]

I go there almost everyday and the rides get stuck a lot I got stuck on twisted the last time I went

[@Bowlingforcoasters]

Great American Scream Machine was great with the original trains

[@iangilldjsuperdude]

Six Flags over Georgia was the 2nd Six Flags park opened by the company in 1967. A side of all that, what do you think about the Mind Bender roller coaster?

[@BethanyGayle]

Actually she is onto something! There is some link to Disney with monster plantation! The ride was opened with the park in 67. When it was opened it was inspired by the Uncle Remus stories! Like song of the south! When the ride was redone in the 70s former Disney Imagineers Gary Goddard and Al Bertino were hired to work on it!

[@davecoasterdudew1206]

I always wanted to visit there for Superman Ultimate Flight.

[@svkmkv04]

What day of the week did y'all go? Looks like y'all had a blast! So fun!

[@2RealGeeks]

Yea this is the 2nd Six Flags park... this is our home park! This park is so much fun and worth the trip to the park. If you can also check out White Water also. Its a Six Flags water park about 30 mins away from the actual park. Skip Hurricane harbor its so small and gets really packed. Also tip would be to head right to superman. They are here on a REALLYYY SLOOOOWWWW day. This park can get PACKED! If anyone wants more info on the park feel free to ask us our even check out our channel!

[@zallman7526]

LOL abandoned buildings... You can urbex half the day and ride coasters the other, have a six flags day!!!!

[@mr.noride7226]

Goliath does have a rattle, but it is not that bad. Honestly B&M hyper coaster rattles don’t bother me because you have a super comfortable lap bar so the rattle doesn’t really affect the ride experience to me. If you have a B&M on a coaster with over the shoulder restraints, then there might be some issues there.

[@michaelj.3774]

That’s my home park. Fun fact the Superman ride was the second B&M flying coaster to ever be installed(if I’m wrong I’m sorry) and the first to be installed in America. This park is my childhood. I’ve been going since kindergarten. Also the predecessor to monster mansion (Tails of the Okefenokee) is rumored to have inspired the ride splash mountain at the Disney parks. There is a video about it on KZbin.

[@michaelj.3774]

Eric Bailey me too I haven’t been since the new area so I’ve been wanting to go.

[@jahzeelmumford832]

Great video funny thing is I’m from Virginia Beach and I performed at 6 flags over Ga for 7 years

[@LindsayTVFilm]

This Superman looks shorter than the others, must be the terrain

[@michaelj.3774]

Lindsay Yale Entertainment it’s actually the first b&m flying coaster in North America and the second ever installed. But yeah I think cause of the terrain.

[@haiderodes]

SFOG’s Superman was designed specifically for the terrain then they cloned the layout.

[@shonhunt8409]

I love how the camera is all on the thick white mama ass I’m dying 😂😂😂😂😂🙌🏽💯

[@2DamnSeddy]

GASM was pretty decent before they put the old Georgia Cyclone trains on it. Idk who’s idea that was but it wasn’t their best one. Im sad you guys didn’t get a chance to ride Mind Bender or Acrophobia. Pandemonium is still going through the growing pains but its an awesome ride. I can’t wait to see what they have in store for the 2020 season!

[@ThrillCoasters305]

This video is amazing and made my day cause it's so good...

[@MrRycher]

I have to agree, I have not been to SFOG, but based on your video, And the SF parks I have been to, it does appear to be one of the best themed/landscaped/layout Parks in the Chain.

[@JKwiatkowski94]

I'm glad y'all had a decent time here. I live in Nashville and have made the 3.5hr drive down to SFOG a few times and have had consistently horrible experiences. Until they get something truly great (Twisted Cyclone was a huge let down for me), I'm not going back anytime soon. I'll stick with Dollywood, Kentucky Kingdom, Holiday World, and Kings Island.

[@jessicah6712]

Hey I’m from Georgia and just visited Nashville last week

[@daltoncady4038]

The Superman is a unique credit because it’s the original Superman that they built and clone for other six flags parks! Also they reused the Georgia cyclone trains and got rid of the longer body PTC trains they used to have. So the ride is definitely heightened in terms of roughness and is far rougher than it used to be even 5 years ago before they closed Georgia cyclone. Almost broke a knuckle because the ride was so rough my hands got knocked off and through the front of the car. Also has knocked the wind out of me. Not fun >:(

[@MrRycher]

“Welcome to Six Flags, our new operating policy dictates we only one one train on all coasters from now on”. - Enjoy your wait.....”we already have your money, so go ahead and complain, we don’t care....”

[@GarretGrayCamera]

I used to hate that. You see one train and you know you got twice the wait.

[@BlizzardDaPup777]

This was the second six flags park ever built Over Texas was the first one and six flags st louis was the third and last park built from the ground up by six flags every other park they bought from someone else

[@JustNateMusic]

Splash Water fall is coming down. A new ride is coming. Hopefully a new coaster! :-)

[@cheryljust]

SFOG has a horrible issue with running one train. I've been when they aren't busy and when they are jam packed and no matter they run one train. Ridiculous.

[@2DamnSeddy]

Darth Murika not true. Every coaster in the park with the exception of the Joker Funhouse Coaster has atleast 2 trains. Dare Devil Dive has 4, and Superman has 3. They usually run 2 trains on the weekends when the park is busy. During the week most coasters will only be running one train with the exception of Goliath.

[@chiliwillie4233]

My family and I went here on 7-6-19. Other than the heat we had a great time and also the Ace Roller Coaster "wooden ride" was by far the 👎worst ride I've ever gotten on.

yes the seats are to small on a lot of rides or you don t have enough leg room but justice league is the best thunder river and mine train and batman are the best rides there but it is good for kids and teens for season pass also. monster mansion is a old great family ride love it and enjoy it try a different restauarant there food usually cold dont care for it try the taco place or something else :-)

The scream machine at this park use to be a great great coaster, but when twisted cyclone was built they moved the good smooth trains from scream machine and put them on the twisted cyclone. They trains twisted cyclone uses use to belong to the great America scream machine.
