Six Flags -nine roller coaster rides-one tired Mom

Superman -- one is strapped in actually laying down on your stomach to simulate superman flight


Nitro, my favorite,is the biggest coaster in Six Flags Great Adventure's history and the tallest on the east coast. (Except for the parks new Kingda-Ka) Nitro is another wonderful hypercoaster built by steel coaster master designers Bolliger and Mabillard of Switzerland. The coaster features a massive first drop of 230-feet, which is followed by seven camelbacks which produce plenty of airtime.
The height of the seven camelbacks starts at 189-feet.
