Turns out Vekoma SLC's are actually pretty good roller coasters! All it takes to make them better is a full track replacement... so shout out to Morey's Piers for going the extra mile to improve the guest experience on Great Nor'Easter, because that ride was AWESOME!

I gotta say, the layout of SLC’s are really cool. Wave turn, double heart line roll, too bad most of them kill you.

@charli.ward. 3 жыл бұрын

Honestly I agree with this 100% I always thought the layout was very interesting. I grew up in Ohio, my technical home park was Geauga Lake, but I also frequented Cedar Point. As a kid I said the SLC was my Raptor away from CP 😂💀I didn’t hate it as a kid

The ghost ship is 100% something to come back and do, there’s 20 live scare actors in there and some really god theming and jump scares. It’s also open all season long but I highly recommend doing it in peak season because if u go during fall or spring they won’t have all the scare actors in there yet. But regardless it’s a great attraction!

@Talkin_Loud 3 жыл бұрын

I clicked just as fast too! As someone who has been riding Nor Easter for the last decade, it is amazing to see a respected coaster enthusiast show it the love it deserves. For years now the re-tracking has kept this ride running like butter. The restraints are beyond comfortable and like mentioned in the video, your comfort lets you finally appreciate the layout and forceful elements of the SLC. One thing that wasn't mentioned but is my personal favorite aspect of this ride is how compact the coaster sits within Morey's Piers. This is the only SLC to be built on top of other attractions/elements and the abundance of near misses makes the ride feel that much faster and thrilling. The Nor Easter is the KING of SLC's!

I remember I went to wildwood beach a number of years ago and I do remember going on the Ghost Ship ride at one of the piers, and when I was on it with the rest of my family the ride actually broke down and we were stuck hanging from the track. Our vehicle stopped moving and there was one behind us and it didn't stop moving and it bumped into ours. Eventually after sitting there for a little bit, there was a maintenance crew person who was standing on TOP of one of the boats heading over to fix ours and he was standing trying to fix the motor on the ride vehicle. He did fix it and we made back to the station. One experience I will never forget.

I rode my first SLC this year. It was Limit @ Heide Park in Germany. I was worried because everybody hates on them so fiercely, so I put it off until the end of my visit. After riding it twice in a row, I thought LImit was a really fun ride. Definitely not the best at Heide Park, but far from the worst. Maybe it depends on how well they are taken care of? I officially don't have an opinion, as I have only been on one.

I hope they continue making improvements (like they did on the SLC and the vest restraints for sea serpent), they have been talking of having gravity group work on Great White. I'd love to see some stylish timberliner trains. It would be cool if that plan spanning over a decade actually came to fruition to get a new wooden GCI coaster over piers as well (maybe wait for titan track for inversions-revise the plans a little). They also need to actually have not-overpriced or only pay attractions (as in not in a wristband or season pass) by great white as well. But the whole place has clearly improved since when I was there.
