Be completley real on what in your opinion sixflags could use as a whole...
choose realistically. Do not bring up a floorless, weve heard enough of that think of budget, room, uniquness, theme, section, or anything you want that would fit it in to the park, a blend...give a...
rollercoaster
flat ride
resturaunt/shops
theme or section/territory
you do not have to choose all these just state what you beleive great america could use for the future....no rumors thrown in....
My first choice would a interactive dark ride that is very well themed with high capacity.
My second choice would be to get rid of SSA and put in a Justice League based simulator style ride
My third choice would a a launched/rocket type roller coaster like Xcelerator/Storm Runner, but make it better than those by adding theming to the ride, something like what was done with Alpenguist at BGE.

I agree with SFGAm needing a more intense flat ride. Something that could stand alone as an excellent addition for a year. I know we have Revy, but a Huss Giant Frisbee would be great. They are so much more fun and exciting than the smaller Frisbees. After that, it's definitely time for a new coaster. An Intamin rocket with a custom layout preferably.
What we COULD use is such a vague word. Do you want to know what SFGAm needs to get, or what I want it to get?
What SFGAm needs to get is: drumroll
Nothing for awhile
What I want SFGAm to get:
Another Haybailer/Thunderbolt
Spin Out
Power Surge
Cliffhanger
Orbiter
Jurassic Park River Adventure form Universal
Himalya (from Santa's Village if never opens)
Moser Spring Ride
Zipper
Scat
Fireball and Freak Out
Tilt-A-Whirl
Crazy Surf (Never happen in a million years)
Scooby Dark Ride
Century Wheel for the youngers
Chaos (That's a laugh, sadly.)
Spider
Our Triple Play back
Indiana Jones ride or Dinosaur like from Disneyworld, and land
Santa's Village Yo-Yo (if never opens)
Mack Mouse for Disney's California Adventure
Raptor, Mantis, Blue Streak, and Gemini from Cedar Point
Mine Train like SFStL or SFOG
Floorless
That SDC Galaxi in which no one has bought.
Another Rolling Thunder. Give us back it.
Ninja from Magic Mountain (Ha, Ha)
Screamin' Eagle from SFStL
Georgia Cyclone, and Goliath from SFOG
Mr. Freeze next to V2
Space Mountain from Disneyworld (The ride might be for sale. They are most likely refurbishing it)
Zamperla Dragon like Santa's Village

I really like the managment idea, it seems its somethin we really need...
See knowing me, the intamin lover i am, Id love an Intamin rocket coaster. Their budget ranges from a high $15-25million though so its a bit pricy, too much actually. One part of me tells me we could use a strata coaster for the height and speed lovers out there but then again theres more. We have that unknown height restriction of 330ft, and alot of us would want more to be unique, something storm runner-esque. Which is less than a strata obviously.
so really accelerators are out of the question sadly.
Coasters are out of the question because it will be a miracle if GA gets one unless the better management change their mind. A cheap flat or a cheap indoor dark ride would be a good addition to the park oh yeah since SF is getting cheap and dont want to spend millions why not make the food and parking cheaper.
The only thing I want SFGAm to have is a sky ride (Delta Flyer/Eagles Flight). All that would have to be done is remove Condor (relocate it somewhere within the park) and convert the Funnel Cake place in CF back into a skyride station and then just rebuild the ride.
I think the management/employee's at our park are very good, escepcially when compared to other SF parks that I have visited, so i dont believe at this time there are changes needed in that dept.
I do believe that the company needed to make changes and I agree with most of the changes made so far and think things are better. Hopefully the new management will give our park more attention/money and give less to SFMM/SFGADV. I think with some more changes, escpeically if the kids area's were improved our park would be the closed to the idea's that SHapiro has in regards to family friendly parks.
sorry I had more to discuss than an accelerator coaster idea, I had goin out to do...anyways...
I only said I agreed to the managment idea because I do know that we have it well, but if we honestly do, why arent we discussed as often as parks affiliated with cedar fair, or our own chains parks like SFGad? Were a well off park compared to alot out there yes. But why dont we receive attention ratings or even why arent we on the top amusement parks on the travel channel? no really though, i always think wow if were so great and do a great deal, then why arent we discussed....
my other note is that I think if new management were to be given, Id hope more attention would go out to us and other parks in the chain instead of SFMM & SFGAd.
We need more themed sections along with kiddie areas filled with rides and food enjoyments[stands & resturaunts].
Sixflags great adventure is becoming so ideal it almost doesnt seem to belong. Almost as if cedarfair or disney even has taken over. Their Attention to familys, adults, teens and theming[the whole shibang] has become incredible and we need to hop onto their wagon, cause it sems to be doing great.
