SFGAd PTR (from 8-1-09)

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby bobbinbop20 on September 19th, 2009, 10:41 pm
At the begging of August I went to three east coast parks: SFGAd, SFNE, and Lake Compounce. Im really bored right now and decided to make PTR's, Enjoy. The first one is of SFGAd which I visited on 8-1-09.

This park is in the middle of god only knows where, well kinda.... the nearest hotels are like a half hour away though! Sheesh you would think someone would be smart enough to build a hotel over there somewhere! Anyway its an ok park, however seems to be lacking Flats, there's like none! We got a gold flash pass which helped tons in getting all the credits as well as riding El Toro and Nitro as many times as we needed!

Speaking of which, the only reason to come here is for EL TORO & NITROOOOOO!!!!!! Both of these rides are extremely wonderful and and just blow your mind away! El Toro has the most godliest airtime imaginable all over its layout, and Nitro has lots of great air and is what A real B&M hyper should be (bull could use some work :wink: ) overall Toro and Nitro fit into my # 2, and 3 spot right behind my baby X2!

As for the park, In my mind aside from Toro and Nitro its rather dumpy. I just felt like it was missing something... hmmm I dont know, I just expected it to be better. Call me crazy but Magic Mountain is still my favorite!

As for Bizarro, this ones really just lame. Scream is soooooooooooo much better, bizarro had horrible pacing and the audio just got really repetitive and annoying, I think I would have enjoyed it more as Medusa

Kingda Ka was closed. I guess I'll have to come back for that credit, But I got all the other credits.

All the Ride counts were once time except for....

Bizzaro - 3 (I had to keep riding to make sure it was that horrible, I'll gladly give it another shot if I ever come back Though)
El Toro - 8 (5 of which in the Back seat. oh baby!)
Nitro - 10 (8 of which in Row 9, definetly the place to be!)

And now onto the Pictures............................. :mrgreen:

Image
I really thought I was gonna fly outta this ride

Image
It was just extremely forceful, both Negatively and Positively

Image
This one was so great I even bout a shirt for it

Image
with a drop so steap it might as well be vertical

Image

Image
why don't you toss me in a cage and roll me down a hill. I hate this ride and worse yet I had to ride both sides for both credits!

Image

Image
the new trains

Image
The fire on both bizarro's was really weak and you had to know it was there to even notice it

Image
These seats were extremely soft

Image

Image

Image
one major problem with El Toro is its station is just way way way to narrow

Image
Right before our final ride of the night

Image
last row to end the day good

Image
This cool parade got in the way when I was trying to leave!

I also like Scream better than Medusa even though its got no theming and is over a parking lot. It just seems more forceful for some reason. Plus Bizarro just looks rediculous in the western area of the park.

one major problem with El Toro is its station is just way way way to narrow

Its Viper's old station which probably explains it.

Scream is one of the worst B&M coasters ever built.....

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!
