Six Flags Great Adventure, in Jackson, New Jersey, is poised to unveil an eagerly awaited addition to its distinguished array of attractions: THE FLASH™: Vertical Velocity. Scheduled for debut this spring, this cutting-edge roller coaster is engineered to offer an unparalleled ride experience. It features both forward and backward propulsion, incorporates four formidable inversions, and includes ten thrilling “airtime” moments characterized by negative gravity. With a peak velocity of 60 mph, this groundbreaking installation represents the first “super boomerang” coaster in the United States.
THE FLASH: Vertical Velocity draws its inspiration from the legendary superhero noted for his extraordinary speed, and aims to replicate this sensation for riders, allowing them to navigate through the air at impressive velocities. The ride is designed to be inclusive, with a minimum height requirement of only 48 inches, thereby offering an exhilarating, high-octane experience to a broad spectrum of visitors.
Specifications for THE FLASH: Vertical Velocity include a maximum height of 172 feet, a top speed of 60 mph, seven launches, and a total track length of 1,430 feet.
“This addition perfectly complements our world-class lineup of roller coasters at Six Flags Great Adventure,” remarked Brian Bacica, the park’s president. “THE FLASH: Vertical Velocity encapsulates every element coaster enthusiasts seek, from dynamic launches to intense inversions, all delivering a surge of adrenaline that would undoubtedly captivate even THE FLASH himself. Catering to both young and seasoned thrill-seekers, its 48-inch height requirement makes it accessible to a wide audience, ensuring an unforgettable experience for all.”
