Six Flags Great Adventure is putting the finishing touches to one of its most anticipated roller coasters to date, the imposing Jersey Devil Coaster.

The new roller coaster is named after a mythical creature from Pine Barrens folklore. Production in the past two years And is praised by the amusement park as the world’s tallest, fastest, and longest monorail roller coaster. It burns along a 3,000-foot track, towers 13 stories high, and travels at a speed of 58 mph.

On Thursday, Six Flags Motor Company used the “Waterman” to simulate the weight in a roller coaster train, thus conducting the first full-scale test of the Jersey Devil roller coaster. One of these people on the water is aptly referred to as the “Mother Leeds.” He installed a camera to take a video of the viewpoint, and the drone provided aerial coverage.

As New Jersey legend has, Mother Leeds cursed her 13th child, born in 1735, and then turned it into a winged beast, which we call the Jersey Devil.For centuries, the mysterious inhabitants of Pine’s barren pine trees have been the subject of sightings, including A creepy video shot in Pennsylvania In November 2015, there was no exact record of the existence of mythical demons.

According to legend, the Jersey Devil is a peculiar mixture of kangaroos, goats and vultures, and killed Liz’s mother shortly after his birth and transformation. Maybe she has always been a waterman.

The Jersey Devil roller coaster will carry four trains, each with 12 passengers. The elevator alone can climb 130 feet in the air. The intense elements of the ride include a steep 87-degree first drop, an excessively high drop and three violent reverse-180-degree stalls, a crow dive, and a zero-gravity roll.

Park Chairman John Winkler said: “The folklore of the Jersey Devil has always been a source of fear and conspiracy in the Barrens of Pine. It has a history of more than 200 years. This iconic New Jersey history inspired this terrible station. The design of the screaming machine.”

Other cycling tests, inspections and New Jersey certification are still to be completed, but Six Flags Great Adventure plans to announce an opening date in the near future.

On Saturday, the park will update its mask guidelines and other COVID-19 mitigation measures. Vaccinated guests will no longer need to wear masks outdoors, but they will still need to wear masks in indoor areas.
