I don't think Hurrican harbor is a good sign for the park while
some of the new themeing looks good it doesn't help set TGE's
water park form every other Hurrican Harbor out there. In all
the gained a bit but also lost a family area and 2 rides. The
park is also keeping one of there best family rides SBNO.

Yeah, I personally don’t care for Hurricane Harbor over
Splashwater Kingdom but I mean strictly in terms of investment,
it’s an upgrade over flying scooters and an upgraded kiddie
splash pad.

Zoomjets is not and has never been SBNO. It operates the same
hours as Hurricane Harbor.

I honestly just think it’s not popular. I never saw it down, it
just never had a line.

We tried riding it one trip and like the big red cars were told
we couldn't ride it because my niece was over 48 inches tall.
TGE has some funky rules on the rides they consider kiddie rides
even rides that are family in nature and can accommodate anyone
they put extra restrictions on. I have ridden both these rides
at SFNE with and without kids that are under and over the 48 in
kiddie ride mark.
I had tried to get on the car ride since my mother is not into
big rides and my nice is autistic and wanted to ride something
with my mom. It seemed like a perfect choice but we were turned
away. So the operator stood around doing nothing I checke din
with the plans operter and said it woudl be the same there.

Yeah they’ve got them really terrible rules.
I couldn’t ride Bucket Blasters until July because we needed my
friend’s kids to even get on.

We we were years waiting to ride Roadrunner Express/Frankie's
Mine Train until an event allowed adults to ride without a kid.
They were adamant on the no adults rule even though for quite a
while it was listed on the website as a family ride and clearly
it was not unsafe for adults to ride because it was allowed if
you were with a child under 48 inches.

I don’t understand that. The kiddie coaster I kind of
understand (to an extent), but Bucket Blasters?

I used to operate a 1960 Herschell Little Dipper coaster, and we
used to let up to 3 adults ride per train no matter if they had
kids or not. Did it struggle up the lift if said guests were a
little heavy? Sure! But if a 1960 hunk of non-technologically
advanced metal can support adult riders, so can Frankie’s Mine
Train LOL. Just another dumb Great Escape/Six Flags policy.
