Gotta say the park and everything looked AMAZING. Brian the park president is doing an amazing job running the park! This will be the best season ever!
Love the new intro and outro. Really brightens up the video. Also at the park right now as I’m watching this. The video doesn’t do justice compared to it being in front of you. Amazing job!
AMAZING VIDEO!! Thanks for the picture by Battle For Metropolis!! Sorry if I was awkward, been watching all your videos recently and I get really shy when I meet people lol, but that’s again!! Can’t wait for more content :)
I was there today!!! Absolutely gorgeous to be back. I’ll go back in 2 weeks. I rode a lot of rides. El Toro was a very strange incident. Someone threw up blood it seemed like.
It felt realllyyyyy good on dream street and I completely agree! Best change. Made things feel so different and open and really nice! We went to barnstormer first today and were told “I’m sorry, we found out just now it won’t be open today…. But this season!…Dont worry!” 😂😑
I just came back from great adventure and it was awesome! I ended up picking up the diamond pass with the sale and I'm so glad I did. I loved the speedy and preferred parking and the double ride bracelet was awesome! I'm probably gonna go again tomorrow lol
Not sure about the new preferred parking set up because it was pretty messy today. We arrived arrived at the gate around 10:45 am and preferred parking line was massive and took us about 10 minutes to park once we passed the gate. Hopefully this will improve in the next few weeks or this could get really bad once the busy season starts. Might be better to park in the general parking spots if you see the line for preferred backed up like today.
Any word on when Ka will be up this year? I’m trying to make a visit soon and I want to make sure that if it’s down it’s not because it’s too early in the season lol.
@@ColiwoodStudios sweet. I was looking at sometime in April potentially. Glad to know I won’t be too early! Thanks! Found your Twitter, just followed their and subbed here as well. Loving your content!
Looking great, very excited for our first visit in June from the Netherlands. Would you expect any rides to be closed mid June or not? Hope to ride at least Kingda Ka and El Toro 😁
I didn't even know about the double ride wristband until it was too late to bother :( I had a good time, but I must say that the lack of places to get the drink cup filled without waiting in a massive line was pretty bad. I personally can't stand in long lines like that, if I'm not walking or sitting, my bones get mad and my chronic fatigue becomes a bigger problem earlier in the day. The line for the accessibility passes was literally too long and slow for me to stand in, thankfully I had other people with me who could, but I usually go to the park by myself.
I work at the safari and no they haven’t changed the station yet. They are supposed to be getting a new speaker system but mostly unchanged. New liveries for trucks and some equipment upgrade for tour guides and seatbelts. Still opening the 30th. Hopefully Also being in safari i couldn’t tell just how closed the park actually was. It is desolate
So lets see: -A major section of the park, with two big coasters, is walled off with no indication of when (or if) it will open this year. -The park has opened for the season and the new coaster (for this season) has not even gone vertical yet. -The parks most iconic attraction is closed (I guess this shouldn't be surprising, but still). -The Skyway is also walled off and abandoned. -They built a big asphalt pathway with a plywood wall and absolutely nothing else to get you from one side of the park to othe other. This company is really something else...so pathetic. I feel so bad for people with SF home parks, so much potential, such bad management.
Man this summer I'm taking my kids to a Cedar fair Vacations for their bday we will visit Kings island, Cedar point, King Dominion and Carowinds but we have time to visit 1 more theme park, but my kids cant decide between SFGA or Hershey park man.
@@ColiwoodStudios Yes for me I want to hold the title of been on the tallest coaster till Falcon Flight is build hahaha but I heard Hershey park is amazing as well.
Superman, Green Lantern, Kingda Ka, Mine Train, Log Flume, Skyway, Deja Vu, Barnstormer, Skull Mountain, Roaring Rapids, as well as a couple of smaller, kid rides
Fact that’s good for me but will upside guest. They actually moved the Coca-Cola freestyle to backstage instead of throwing it out or giving it back to corporate.
I would’ve rode El Toro today but not only was the wait ridiculous also a little kid got a bloody nose and I’m not sure why. They took forever for the kid
Yeah just letting u know why you so repaint on the whole backstage area is basically because the renovating the whole place it’s not even open right now for employees
An update if you were one of the suckers like me who paid for the 2024 season Speedy pass add on to your Six Flags passes. Six Flags just recently announced that Speedy pass will be free for pass holders. No refunds from Six Flags Great Adventure but they will give you 4 skip the line passes for your donation. 😡 Useless for us since we have Flash Pass but at least I'm only out $20 because heard some people on the guest services line complain they had paid $50 for Speedy Season pass. SFGA gave me the number to call corporate since they were getting so many complaints and see if they will refund money. Corporate at first refused my refund and offered the same 4 skip the line passes but when I told them we had Flash Pass they said they will begin process for refund or at least mail us a $20 SFGA gift card. Wonder if this brings about a class action lawsuit?
Um....What have they been doing with flash? I see the obvious work they've done, my question is why are they moving so slow??? Are they planning on opening in June or something? Smh with so.e ivertiya d double shifts they could have had Flash ready or at least testing in Late April
Check out the full update for Flash here:

I like how they kept the rolling Thunder queue fence for a memory.
Yeah,we saw just a piece of it while we were in line for El Toro
Gotta say the park and everything looked AMAZING. Brian the park president is doing an amazing job running the park! This will be the best season ever!
Yeah.
Love the new intro and outro. Really brightens up the video. Also at the park right now as I’m watching this. The video doesn’t do justice compared to it being in front of you. Amazing job!

No worries! Thanks for saying hi!
love your passion! you sound so excited to be there. Keep up the great work! new intro goes crazy
Who needs cocaine when you can just go to opening day of Six Flags 😂
Dream street looks really good especially with the shot with the Carousel
Love the new intro! Saw you toro and in Six Flags Universe! Parking was a mess today without proper signage for normal parking
Really nice!. Also love the new intro and outro
Six Flags Great Adventure is looking so good! I hope they revamp up the area where Kingda Ka is.
Eventually
I’ll get into the improvements later but I’m impressed! Also like the new intro and outro!
Served your dad multiple times in adventure alley snacks and funnel cake was fun to finally meet you guys at the park as well
Saw you guys walk-through security this morning. Didn’t want to put you on blast! Haha
Nice refresh of your intro and outro! How are you getting these videos posted so quickly?! You waste no time at all.
Thank you!! It’s certainly not easy 😅
@@ColiwoodStudios your efforts are appreciated! Keep up the great content!
Are you editing on your phone?
Love the content Coliwood...are you gonna spring for the glamping experience this year? Very pricey...
Outrageously expensive grand a nite for the cheap. Can you say FLOP
Thank you, at some point, probably!
I was there today!!! Absolutely gorgeous to be back. I’ll go back in 2 weeks. I rode a lot of rides. El Toro was a very strange incident. Someone threw up blood it seemed like.
Thanks so much for the updates thoughout the park, so excited to go soon 🎡🎢
It was great seeing you there Colin! Great video!
Love the new Intro and Outro changes it looks really good and modern!🔥🔥
It's now the great adventure season! Also, love the new intro
Wow great adventure is looking much better i gotta get one of those 50th anniversary shirts
Looks like more than 1/2 the park is closed/not accessible…waste of a day …I’ll wait til summer…great content, Colin!!
It felt realllyyyyy good on dream street and I completely agree! Best change. Made things feel so different and open and really nice!
We went to barnstormer first today and were told “I’m sorry, we found out just now it won’t be open today…. But this season!…Dont worry!” 😂😑
Also, love the new modernization of the channel! Small changes but looks really good!
Your new intro and outro looks great!
I just came back from great adventure and it was awesome! I ended up picking up the diamond pass with the sale and I'm so glad I did. I loved the speedy and preferred parking and the double ride bracelet was awesome! I'm probably gonna go again tomorrow lol
Thanks 👍 so excited to visit the park next weekend
Really hope they fix up the skyway 🤞🏼🙏🏼. Dream street will look even more amazing with the gondolas going by it

I had alot of fun for a beautiful day it was I'm so looking forward to the summer now
Any word on when Ka will be up this year? I’m trying to make a visit soon and I want to make sure that if it’s down it’s not because it’s too early in the season lol.
Should be next weekend (3/23)

Looking great, very excited for our first visit in June from the Netherlands. Would you expect any rides to be closed mid June or not? Hope to ride at least Kingda Ka and El Toro 😁
By then, everything should be open! You may even catch Flash right at its opening too!
@@ColiwoodStudios that would be double awesome if possible! Thanks a lot for the reply, very much appreciated.
The Park looks amazing thank you for all of the updates
I almost hope that barnstormer opens next Sunday so I can be on the first public cycle
Damn stuff is still not done and the coaster hasn’t gone vertical. What have they been doing in the offseason?
Great report and footage Colin. And a giant middle finger to the park for not allowing Rolling Thunder to make it to the 50th anniversary 🖕
I feel like they’re waiting to have all the parts to just build flash in one shot, I feel like it’ll only take a couple weeks at max to put it all up
I didn't even know about the double ride wristband until it was too late to bother :(
I had a good time, but I must say that the lack of places to get the drink cup filled without waiting in a massive line was pretty bad. I personally can't stand in long lines like that, if I'm not walking or sitting, my bones get mad and my chronic fatigue becomes a bigger problem earlier in the day.

Oh geeze .. its gonna be a long while till flash opens
The new changes are great!
Omg I missed the six flags loud music!!! I remember when I was there they played Stand by me the prince Royce version
The park was advertising Kingda Ka many days before opening day and now it’s not even open:(
Yes, Chickies is gone. There was gonna be a replacement, but I heard now they aren’t replacing it with any restaurant.
I hope flash is fully built by the summer
It would be better if the history display is back for what rides used to be.
Thanks Colin
Was Chickies moved somewhere else? It's the only kosher food in the park aside from desserts, so it was pretty much all I could eat...
Not currently, no
Did they get rid of the concert arena near Medusa / Bizzaro
Not yet
I work at the safari and no they haven’t changed the station yet. They are supposed to be getting a new speaker system but mostly unchanged. New liveries for trucks and some equipment upgrade for tour guides and seatbelts.
Still opening the 30th. Hopefully
Also being in safari i couldn’t tell just how closed the park actually was. It is desolate
This is awesome! When does Ka open?
Hopefully next weekend!
@@ColiwoodStudios Oh good. I’m hoping to get to the park this year after Flash opens, and I definitely don’t want to miss out on Ka!
I WENT ON MEDUSA 3 TIMES!
So lets see:
-A major section of the park, with two big coasters, is walled off with no indication of when (or if) it will open this year.
-The park has opened for the season and the new coaster (for this season) has not even gone vertical yet.
-The parks most iconic attraction is closed (I guess this shouldn't be surprising, but still).
-The Skyway is also walled off and abandoned.
-They built a big asphalt pathway with a plywood wall and absolutely nothing else to get you from one side of the park to othe other.
This company is really something else...so pathetic. I feel so bad for people with SF home parks, so much potential, such bad management.
Here sunday. Barnstormer still not open
Man this summer I'm taking my kids to a Cedar fair Vacations for their bday we will visit Kings island, Cedar point, King Dominion and Carowinds but we have time to visit 1 more theme park, but my kids cant decide between SFGA or Hershey park man.
Both are EXCELLENT parks, that’s a really tough decision!
@@ColiwoodStudios Yes for me I want to hold the title of been on the tallest coaster till Falcon Flight is build hahaha but I heard Hershey park is amazing as well.
i went there in the summer and log flume wasn’t open either so i don’t think it’s opening ever again
It will reopen at the end of June!
@@ColiwoodStudios oh thank you!
I can’t wait to go this year
Whats up I just saw you in the park
Hey do you know what rides were fully closed that day? And how were the lines?
Superman, Green Lantern, Kingda Ka, Mine Train, Log Flume, Skyway, Deja Vu, Barnstormer, Skull Mountain, Roaring Rapids, as well as a couple of smaller, kid rides
@@ColiwoodStudios Oh wow! Thank you so much! :))
Are they still charging money for required lockers
At 4pm today while I was at the park today Skyscreamer got stuck
Today was a messy day. It was very beautiful weather wise
how long is the area of golden kingdom going to be closed?
The Golden Kingdom is not closed
Got to say opening at the gate was a nightmare 😅
Dont expect VIP lounges back this season!
So, superman, green lantern, ka, and mine train are the main closed attractions currently?
Plus Skull Mountain
Wow I haven’t been to this six flags since 2014. Im 19 now need to go here again
This year is the year to go!
Does the park still have Coca Cola Freestyles? I loved it with the different cola flavors.
Not anymore unfortunately
Are you going to Luna park on opening day?
Not planning on it
I have not been to Six Flags Great Adventure in years. It looks cool, though.
Fact that’s good for me but will upside guest. They actually moved the Coca-Cola freestyle to backstage instead of throwing it out or giving it back to corporate.
Why do the bricks not have engraving on them?
The engraved bricks will be brought in throughout the coming weeks
Ok thank you also it was nice to see you yesterday
Whats DOUBLE RIDE WRIST BAND?
While wearing the band, you can ride all rides 2 times in a row!
How do u get one and how much?
Do you think Ka will be up and running for Sunday
I’d say probably next weekend
I hope cyborg and Wonder Woman are open for when I go in april
I can’t wait to go on Wonder Woman when I go back this year
The Flash should open anywhere between June and August.
I plan to go Gadv August 6th and 7th as part of 2 week coaster trip and I have no confidence it will be open.
Maybe, hopefully before labor day
@@MCQ-fq6bvfooters in, and track is on sight. I think it’s a high chance it could be done by then
One of the workers informed me that they got tracks from Texas and Texas got our tracks for flash 🤫🤐💯
@@ThoosiesCorner Zero chance before labor day.
I would’ve rode El Toro today but not only was the wait ridiculous also a little kid got a bloody nose and I’m not sure why. They took forever for the kid
Why is free style gone?
They aren’t really practical for a theme park setting
I rode nitro
New dream street pathway is phenomenal
Can I pay by cash?
Only card is accepted. There are cash to card converters throughout the park
Yeah just letting u know why you so repaint on the whole backstage area is basically because the renovating the whole place it’s not even open right now for employees

Flash
Not yet
@@ColiwoodStudios When will it come? I want to ride it
So nothing really lol
There's quite a bit new! Not sure how you see this as nothing!
I am not walking, but running to buy the new merch🎢
