Six Flags Great Adventure 2024 Opening Day Vlog 3/16/24 

Nobody loves Great Adventure more than Colin.

That 1st turnaround is 100% smoother. It felt really good, even on the wheel seats

I expect all vlogs this season to have phenomenal editing🫡

We were on El Toro’s 3rd run, that you recorded! We rode a few times. It was running great, smooth turnaround. Thanks for a great vlog :)

I agree with Phil 100% about Dream Street. And just imagine how much nicer it will look when the trees are in their full leaf glory. 👍👍👍

Awesome vlog Colin! Opening day was so much fun!

I was there for my Birthday, and it was an amazing visit even with not everything going according to plan for the park. It was awesome getting first train of the season for El Toro and Medusa too!

The car shots seem mighty familiar to mine.. 😏 Good coverage. They need to straighten out that wristband process though.

Glad the whole squad made it out, but especially ACE

Medusa has always been my favorite ride in the park. Glad they changed the name back

Always great seeing you and the guys! Great way to start what’s gonna be an amazing season!

They opened the Speedy Parking lanes around 10:40ish, but it was still a mess. The attendant was having to run between the four lanes to push the button to open the gate for those who weren't registered.

The new improvements that are already here in 2024: (more to come of course later in the season) Main Street market got a good refresh. The carousel looks so amazing. Especially the poles around it. The brick pathway is just perfect. Over time they will add peoples quotes on the bricks and more stuff around the area I’m sure. The pathway from toro to Ka is very appreciated. I just hope they make it look more appealing over time. Looney tunes live is something I wasn’t expecting but it’s very welcome. They haven’t had a board that shows when each character meets in a long time so I’m glad it’s back. I saw a few repaints done around the park and new 50th merchandise.

Great Adventure really seems to be doing well as a park and management really seems to care for this park and wants to make it the best it can be! I just wish my homepark, Magic Mountain, would get some love because it's still struggling in multiple areas just like it was when you finally got to visit it last year! Great vlog otherwise Colin!

watching the parking situation was very entertaining to say the least 😭

Beautiful day for opening day. I was there all day and figured I would have seen ya at some point.

Great video! My man Ace made another appearance!! I'm excited to get to this park for my first time this year ♥♥

Colin it was great to meet you, I was the kid with the big guy in the patriots hoodie by flash construction!

Great video! I love the new intro and the little montage you did in the beginning!

Great beginning!

nice vlog one of these trips i will catch up with you and take a selfie ....

Loved the intro and I can agree. Getting in the park was an absolute mess, hope that doesn’t happen again. Getting in today was a lot easier.

Awesome vlog! We went on Sunday and despite the crowds had a pretty good time! Got some great rides on Toro, Medusa, Nitro, and Zumanjaro (with double ride wristbands) The park looks fantastic, and Dream Street is beautiful! The operations were also really good when we went. Excited for the rest of the season!

I was in the 3rd train of Toro nice vlog. Can’t wait for a fan meetup

I was at the park today and this is what I noticed Everything was on 1 train again, especially JD and the GP did not like that. Nitro operations squad were COOKING with one train all day (shoutout to them) Skull and barnstormer were not open at all When riding Medusa, the stage is gone and the seating area still remains, would be worth checking out as the season progresses Still no flash supports yet, but a lot of flash track under Nitro. They have to be close to having all the track on site by now. Houdini is harshly slept on and everyone should check it out…seriously. Dream street is AMAZING!! No custom bricks yet, but hopefully soon. Only major food locations were open and there were major lines because of it. Probably a staffing thing though. Otherwise a successful trip, curious to see what else they add and change as the season progresses! Things are looking positive for sure!

The opening day weather was pretty nice. About 62 degrees that day

It's weird seeing your self in a vlog if I had known that was you filming I definitely would have stopped and said hi if you weren't to busy.

Awesome vlog!! I saw myself on toro when you showed the 4th train!

I can’t wait for them to add a RMC hybrid or Intamin multi launch.

El toro was running great Saturday very smooth on turn back looking forward to what six flags great adventure has in store

Yeah we have a lot of food staffing they schedule made a mistake with not putting a lot of people on the schedule and she realize that and it will be fixed for next week and a lot of the food people were not used to the new registers even the supervisor had no clue what they were doing. Messed up a lot of the day.

Great Vlog from the opening day of Six Flags Great Adventure Colin

Great vlog Colin. I can see all the changes done :)

Bro the parking was fun thanks for cutting me off 😆

Ayyy I seen me on the 3rd train

I love the Mario edit! The Kingda ka test seat, looks like it moved too!

I was at Six Flags today and can I say it was awesome I wrote El Toro and it’s good so good amazing I like writing it is the first ride when I rode for the season of 2024 and the rest of the day was good and then we got our 2024 bottles and they look good in my opinion and the rest of the day was fun and then the park closed and I had a good time

Awesome intro

El Toro's smoothness is questionable to me, because the ride felt slower even later in the day. I need to hit it on a warm day at full speed to really appreciate any difference. My primary complaints are what double rides did to the non-pass holders (I'm a pass holder mind you), and the removal of the free-style coke machines. My primary appreciations are the new paths and EV charging stations.

I was on Medusa with you, great video

The editing on this was next level! Really well assembled. Cant wait for some cinematic shots of the rides 😉😉. The park looks good, but they need to work on their operations, opening day was sloppy and disorganized. When you got more flags, we expect more fun Six Flags 🤨🧐.

Hey Colin. Love your channel. I saw your pics on Instagram from opening day. I love how intense you look when you’re on Justice League. :) you look so much like your dad…two handsome guys.

Hey Colin great video! I actually think I passed by you when you were leaving Medusa! It was when you were saying it wasn't your favorite ride.

Also new for this season in Justice League, the Joker animatronic got a brand new skin applied as well as its hair combed back to how it was when the ride opened in 2017. The park is really going all out for the 50th anniversary!

Fifth “tent” = new meet up spot

Great video, never been to this park, since I'm in Ohio, but would like to visit someday. Can't believe the park is open so early with it being so far up north.

Great opening day, I was on the second ride of eltoro and it felt pretty smooth. Sorry we walked right through your video at about 19:20 , I didn’t see you there until we had walked past.

AMAZING experience on the first train of the season on Toro!! BTW did you know that the park was open until 7 that day? Got a nice marathon on Toro!

I saw you walking to get the shot of the new ka path while on line for a toro locker

That new intro is 🔥🔥🔥

I can’t wait for them to add a RMC hybrid or Intamin giga or multi launch

Refurbishing skull mountain?! They heard your complaints about it😂. Good vlog!

Medusa ran smooth yesterday and I sat in the back row left seat no head banging but the stupid mid course slowing down too much

The speedy pass worked but it was confusing people, everyone was in wrong lanes but it worked and we got through. Not sure I love that they are now having preferred go straight and then left and riding the edges of the parking lot but I guess they want to pull alot of those cars out of the middle of the parking lot which creates a log jam at the gate. Few negative things, having half coasters closed, running one train on things and then doing double ride promotion wasnt smart, all the lines were over an hour. and then we come to the biggest issue, they had a whole new register system and nobody knew what they were doing. The guy said they werent trained, they were learning today. It took 2 1/2 hours just to eat two meals and a snack. The issue we had took 30 min to get our new drink bottle, the old guy didnt know what he was doing. he kept tell us we owed 40 dollars for two cups, then it was 20, 17 and then we had to pay tax. We told him no, we're legacy members with dining plan, they are getting rid of the old red member cup and its right here on the phone that we get to swap that out for a new orange 2024 cup. He kept telling us no, we have to pay, things change every year and we're like no we dont. Finally someone came along and got it fixed and then nobody could figure out to to do the meal plan for wings. They eventually just gave us them. Then we went to get pizza and had to wait 15 min at the window for the register to reboot. The guy said all new system, nothings working, it was bad but by end of the night seemed like things were going smooth. I'm a bigger guy and on nitro I need one extra little push to get the last click to be good, I've riden it 1,000 times but the kid running it wouldnt do it, he just wouldnt give me one extra push to get it in and then wouldnt let my brother out of his seat to do it. I've never had to take walk of shame on Nitro. Good thing used skip the line cause if I waited an hour and had to leave that would have sucked. On to the positives though the dream stream looks amazing, cant believe they didnt do that sooner, the pathway from toro to ka is great, overall had a good time. also never see anyone who films at the parks but I did see your dad and your crew near mama floras bathrooms. Didnt get to check but hoping they have a 50th anniversary magnet.

Medusa actually went pretty quick even with 1 train

i saw me on the first train

They lack a lot hoping it gets better but kinda par for the course... Btw is houdini house open

Shocker everything goes wrong opening day lmao

Nice editing

W thumbnail

I don’t know if you saw the big 50 they have outside the park entrance which is nice

I showed up around 1230-1 or so and the Speedy parking was open but they had attendants there. I got confused and wasn't sure what was going on and then when I pulled up and was just going to hand the attendant my pass, she started to ask if I had speedy parking and while she was asking the gate rose up and she said "oh, I guess you do" so I don't know what was going on with speedy parking other than a mess

KA GL Superman and Runaway mine train arent state certfiled yet idk why the park didnt have half the park ready on opening day is beyond me this park is a mess

Hey Coliwood, for anyone wondering what happened to sky way, is it the last year? No they are replacing there old ones to new ones, I saw this info on there tiktok acc. Bye

Would’ve been nice to ride El Toro yesterday but it was taking a long time and a little kid got a bloody nose as my dad and I as well as others were going to move up to get on the trains. That took an unnecessarily long time

What does a double ride wristband do?

🐐🐐🐐🐐

Things being slow to start off the year is nothing new. That happens every year. The parking issue was unique though. Also the double rides is something that I don’t think should return.

The skyway sign is gone and the whole thing is blocked off. I know it’s supposed to open according to the map but I’m starting to have second thoughts. Unless they’re refurbishing it then great but I’m not sure.

Does anyone know how priority parking works with the speedy parking?

Im confused. How did dream street look before this year? Ive never been but on Maps it looks like they still have the same path access

Glad I didn’t come for opening weekend because Kingda Ka was suddenly not ready to open even after several weeks of advertising it on social media.

I still gotta buy my pass lmaoo

Was the New Flash roller-coaster open

Collin what is the best row/seat on el toro because when I went on it the first time it really hurt my neck

Colin did you notice any one with an orange strap with blue glasses, a light red sweater and a Kylie Minogue shirt yesterday? If you did it was me and I was with my father

Free Barnstormer

Wonder Woman

1st🥇

Do you know when Kingda Ka will be open?

Yo, is kingdaka going right now?/do you think it will be up and going by 4/5?

The problem with my park is they do lack flat rides... Yes coasters few flats... Mediocre food overpriced I'm kinda disappointed

When does king da ka open?

What time did you get at the park?

please make it clear that the new parking is such a mess, i know its the first weekend but the whole setup makes no sense

Using the same footage from a video posted earlier? Not gonna watch it twice.
