Deja Vu (it's either not running when I am there, or it has a long long wait time)
V2 (looking at it scares me..lol)
Z-Force (I was just barely tall enough to ride it, but was too scared, then the next season it was taken down) Anything that costs extra money.
Any coasters that were taken out before 1989. (the year I was finally tall enough to ride most coasters)
(kinda off topic, BUT, are Tidal Wave and Rolling Thunder still running at other parks?) Someone who knows PM me so that this topic doesn't get locked!)

Question Is that where The Edge went? I always wondered if it went somewhere or got scraped. Also why is that type of drop ride not considered a coaster?
Waiting to fill this space with something stupid to say!

Tidal Wave first went to Six Flags Over Georgia and ran there as Viper as of 2001. Then in 2003, it moved to Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom as Greezed Lightning.
Rolling Thunder came here from Six Flags Great Adventure and left here in 1995 and went to Great Escape in New York and is still running as Alpine Bobsled.
'05 at SFGAm is going to rock! Evanescence and Green Day rock my world
GET IN - SIT DOWN - SHUT UP & HANG ON!
For purely historical note, The Edge went to Rocky Point Park in Rhode Island for several years til that park closed and the ride stood there for a few years til it was sold at auction and Premeir Parks (pre Six Flags) bought it and installed it at, then Geauga Lake as Mr. Hydes Nasty Fall.
It really is one of the worst 1'st Gen freefalls I've ridden, but I think it's because of alot of neglect it recieved when GAm literally tore it out of the ground and it arrived at Rocky Point with heavily damaged electrictcal system (electronics arrived in milk crates) and some footers still attached to supports. Then it stood at Rocky Point for a few years (right near the ocean to boot) with no care at all after it closed til PKS acquired it for some insanely cheap price and they probably never did much besides simply put it back together at Geauga Lake.

All those kiddie rides bring back memories... especially Busy Bees, my first ride at SFGAm
/\The Edge was located near King Choas, it was kind of next to it behind the fence, in the backstage area. The footers are still there if you go on the train and look down in the backstage area.
Universal Orlando Mechanical Engineer Marathon down, Goofy to go.
Now I have been on everything (excluding pay rides and past rides) except for Scenic Railway. I plan on riding it this Sunday to meet my goal of riding every ride at SFGAm before the season ends.
The ONLY "ride" I have never done is Daredevil Dive...simply because I refuse to pay so much extra for an attraction! And who needs to, with all of the wonderful rides our park has!
We should all remember to be thankful to have a world-class theme park like Six Flags Great America here in our local area!
Z-Force
Tidal Wave (but I have ridden it as Greaed Lightin' at SFKK)
Gulf Coaster
Turn of the Century (but I have riden the Demon)
Dare Devil Dive
Deja Vu
Bottoms Up
Traffique Jam
Davey Jones Dinghies
Turbo Bungy
The Wall (if you call that a ride)
Winner's Circle
I've got on every ride this year, and that was my goal, for both regualr season rides and fright fest converted rides. This is defiantly irrelevant, but the best Fright Fest ride is Terror Twister, 12 rides, they should have it all year round.

Where exactly? That's where Power Dive was.
R.I.P. Splashwater Falls and Space Shuttle America. Deja Vu, enjoy Idaho.
