I would be kind of dissapointed if it were El Carnival, but the section overall is very well done. It almost equals Golden Kingdom. I think overall Great Adventure's a well-themed park, although the back of the Boardwalk could use some rehab, and maybe some more pirate scenery at the Lakefront.

I don't want to have to start banning people, but please don't post just for the sake of posting. If you want to do that, I suggest you exchange instant messenger screen names. So if we could keep the discussion to something to do with the post or use the Discussion page for stuff that's off topic, I'd appreciate it. And yes, a Voyage vs. El Toro isn't a bad idea for a coaster showdown post. Thanks! I deleted the last 5 or so comments from this post.

Is the airtime on this coaster at a comfortable level? I'm talking about when you're stapled down so tight in the lap bar, is it painful at all physically? An example is the Georgia Cyclone at Six Flags Over Georgia. There's this one hill that's maybe 5 feet high (I'm not even kidding) and then a really steep drop after the crest of it. You go over it at maybe 40 mph, and it feels like you're being stabbed in the chest because of the tight pull over it, and also because of the roughness. That turned me off to a lot of these extreme airtime woodies because I NEVER want to feel anything like that again. Just wondered if there's a similar experience on this coaster and also Gravity Group's coasters where it appears you go over some pretty small hills with a lot of speed. Thanks in advance to whoever answers my question. I have a question. Is the airtime on this coaster at a comfortable level?
