The Genius Behind Jersey Devil

One of the least talked about new for 2021 coasters is Jersey Devil. Aside from just looking like an incredible ride, this coaster is also the perfect investment for Great Adventure and in this video, I tell you why.
I know in a previous video I've said longer trains slow down pacing but in Jersey Devil's promotional material it's still running exceptionally fast and the elements on this ride are more to scale with the length of the trains. The pacing might not be as fast as the other raptors but I still think it will be great. We'll just have to see once it starts testing.

Great Adventure subtly crushing its competition one raptor at a time.

My thoughts exactly. The thought process is off. Sfga has nitro. Hershey just built candamonium so why the f can't Hershey build single rail. Any of those small parks could.

@appalachianenthusiast9499 3 года назад

For the smaller parks, an RES Roller Ball or an S&S El Loco are probably the most likely investments. The El Loco is different from basically everything within a 200 mile radius (the El Loco is NOT a knockoff of the Eurofighter). An RES Roller Ball makes sense for Lake Compounce, Knoebels, Dorney Park, and Casino Pier since none of them have a spinning coaster and it has amazing marketability potential.

@huspy8168 3 года назад

12*60 that would mean 720 riders per hour. However, you can easily cut this time down to 40 seconds if the ride will have a moving station or a unload/load platform which I think it will. So assuming a dispatch of every 40 seconds instead you get a theoretical capacity of 1080 riders per hour, capacity that is very close to maverick.

@theearthlord2209 2 месяца назад

I feel like this video is outdated. Especially because this was before Jersey Devil opened and enthusiasts actually got on Jersey Devil. And it's really safe to say that Jersey devil is the exact opposite of the traditional raptor. Instead of ejector, you got floater. Instead of aggressive pacing, you just have average pacing. The elements aren't whippy, the airtime isn't strong, etc. It's really not a good comparison to the other raptors. And even if it were the case that it was like a normal raptor, than the parks would just have to make the raptor stand out. It's kinda like what we saw with the B&M invert craze, you had parks adding all sorts of wacky elements to inverts, you had raptor with the Cobra roll, we saw Afterburn and Montu with the batwing, (and the immelman with afterburb). With banshee being roughly 3 hours away from raptor, Banshee added wacky large elements like the dive loop. With silver bullet we saw overbanks and a mix of floaty and intense elements, etc. So not only is Jersey Devil WAY different from the other raptors, but the raptor would just change anyway like we saw with inverts.
