Helicopter view
RIP 🫡
I am so glad I was able to experience it as a European. What a great ride. Such a shame they demolished it.
I’m a little sad I never made it to New Jersey to ride this
Hurts to see it actually happen, I’ve got really low confidence that the replacement will live up to what used to be there. With TTD gone Ka was a unique type of ride that probably won’t get replicated any time soon. It seems like every new launch is a swing or rolling start, which are good too but don’t have the impact of a zero-to-max launch.
Not to mention the drop tower, which never seemed to get the appreciation it deserved. Whenever the park did fireworks the view was spectacular, and the one dueling ride I got with Ka was probably the coolest experience I’ve had on any ride.

I completely agree. I understand that the coaster was costly to operate but I think this was short sighted and was fueled by the lack of competition that the merger created. Above all it’s incredibly aggregating that they intentionally didn’t let on that Ka was going away solely so that it wouldn’t affect season pass sales.
As for Zum I would agree with what you said about the views but I still think that was one of the weaker drop towers I’d been on (solely on the basis of the drop).
I’m concerned about the new Six Flags. I really hope that I’m wrong and the chain actually does some amazing things but I’m not in a position where I would put money on it.
