I'm going in two weeks for two days with my dad and we have season passes. Ive never been before I need an update on rides wich to ride first etc. and ides for coasters and thrill rides you like best? Help me out plz?

Run, do not walk, and head for Nitro first! lol you don't have to run, although I did in a moment with lacking patience. Ride Nitro first, then you might wanna ride Batman: The ride because the line is long all day. Follow that up with Batman and Robin: The Chiller. After this I would usually run to Medusa, but Scream Machine is on the way. After Medusa do Viper (if it's open), Rolling Thunder, then Scream Machine if you didn't already ride it.

That would only be if you've never been there before and want to try every coaster. Since you're going for two days, it shouldn't be that hard at all.

My suggestions for the coasters and what I feel about them:
Nitro: AWESOME. Ride first. Amazing. That pretty much covers it.

BTR: Fun ride. Good B&M invert. Nothing really special about this ride, but it is fun. I wouldn't skip it.

Chiller: If both sides are open, ride Batman. I don't know if the lapbar rumors are true, but I'm pretty sure that the Batman side is running with OTS restraints. It's not too bad on the Batman side, the Robin side really throws you around sometimes. I always ride it anyway. If anything, you should ride for the launch alone. What a rush!

Medusa: First B&M floorless. I love this ride! If you can, wait the extra time for the front row. It really makes a difference. More intense, and more fun.

Viper: I'm not really a fan. TOGO coaster. It's pretty short. Has a good first drop. Painful afterwards. Ride if you must.

Rolling Thunder: Right side is rougher than the left I've heard. Because I've only been on the right side (just my luck) I can say that it is a bit rough, but hey woodies are meant to throw you a lil! Ride it for the fact that it's the only woodie in the park (They really need another). If it's racing def. go on!

GASM: Not that bad of a ride. A lil rough if you keep your head against the headrest, so ignore those warnings and move your head an inch or two away. The ride will be much more fun. Whenever I go to the park this one is a walk on.

Remember, there are plenty of great flat rides at Great Adventure too, as well as a couple of good extra pay rides. Have fun!

That is the perfect agenda! You cover all the rides in a geographical order. And yeah, Batman always does have long lines. That ride is still a 2 hour wait @ my home park SFGam on weekends!

princess hit it right ont he nose... she knows what shes talking about listen to her.... and DEFINITELY ride Nitro first. if not, expect huge lines. have fun!

if you dont want to wait in any lines or just to be sure you can get fast pass as you enter the park. but if you go in a good enough order from ride to ride the crowds will be behind you and you wont have much troubel. your best bet is to go straight to Nitro after nitro go straight to batman the ride wich will only have a wait of less then 10 or 15mins since its still erlie maybe no wait at all. then after Batman head to the Chiller this might have a line it might not if there is a line it shouldent be outside of the power house yet so exspect a 15min wait. after that you could take a ride on the stuntmans freefall and then head over to the sky way if you want to ride skull mountain you could do that too. it shouldent have a line over 15mins by then. then after that hope on the sky ride tord medusa. get on medusa and the line shouldent be over 15mins then over to Rolling thunder if both sides are open try both. if vipers open you could take a ride on it but dont hold ur breath that its open. then after that section you could finaly get some food or take a few spins on some flat rides ur best bet is to get ur hand stamped and leave the park to go to there local mc donalds or burger kings since food in SFgadv is very pricey! after you eat its time for some more rides i would walk straight to the great american scream machine the line will eather A.be 15 mins if its on a weekday or B.have no one in it at all. after that defintaly take a ride on dino island if the line isent over 20mins its fun. and after that try to head over to Twister wich is a good flat ride and then if you want you could head back to nitro and brave the crowdes or head home for the day. after all that you should be out of the park by no later then 6pm or 7pm if you got there at 10am.

I would get a fast pass just to ride Nitro all day. From what I have heard and seen, this ride is one that should not be missed and ridden more than once!

Listen to me. Go over to medusa first. Its the only thing on that side of he park thats open that you will want to ride. Then go over to Nitro and sit in the front row no matter what. Then go over to the chiller because they will only have one track going so the line moves very slow. So you want to get there early in the day. Then go over to batman:The ride. That line is always long. Then head to the middle of the park to the scream machine. That line will most likely be short. While your over there go on twister. Then go to other rides like skull mountain and the runaway train. Go to the thrill rides after you ride all of the rollercoasters. When night hits get on nitro and sit in the front row it is amazing. If you have the xtra money you should try the sling shot or turbo force. they are great. But do them at night. Since your going there for 2 days i would suggest that you go to hurricane harbor for half of the first day and the theme park the other half of the day and the second day. Have Fun.

Going to Medusa would be the wrong thing to do according to my personal experiences. Everytime I've gone to SFGAdv this year and done Medusa in the early afternoon, the line hasn't been any longer than 20 minutes. I'd much rather wait 20 min for Medusa than wait twice as long for Nitro.

I agree with evil princess by the time you get to moive town from medusa all the lines that way will be cram packed since thats the more popular side of the park and with the adtion of Nitro it wouldent help the lines. by then i wouldent want to know what nitro,batman the ride and the chillers lines would be.somtimes to avoid 40mins plus lines for the chiller i'll hop a ride on the chiller before nitro,trsut me ride nitro,batman and the chiller 1st thing one after the other! i can almost promise lines under 30mins

definatly do nitro first. it can get up to a 3 hour wait. i waited 1 and a half hours for it when it was 8:30 at night

Wait... Medusa's Front Seat doesn't do anything! If you're going to wait for a front seat, make it Chiller or NITRO!!!

Also, if it's hot, the water rides are more crowded than the coasters in the afternoon. The only easy way to get drenched is the bridge over Movietown Water Effect.

Evil Princess said it great, but I wouldn't head straight for Nitro unless you are there on a weekend, instead go get a fastpass (or four ) for Nitro and Medusa. <i>Then</i> run to Nitro!
