    I remember when six flags Great Adventure had something similar to this one, it’s no longer there, but they still have the classic log flume . This looks like so much fun. Wish I was there too!🤣🤣🤣

    for some reason the water makes it less scarier and it’s like the height of some other coasters just no loops

      Rexstick Adventures Rexy it's been freezing! Lol. Our two weeks of winter has bought some wonderful rain, so I did some gardening and embraced it. I didn't think we were going to get a winter this year. I've been sick though and spending lots of time looking like death in bed. Today I feel another sore throat .. It's never ending, I'm over it. Despite all that in good spirits!

    I have been on Yankee Clipper way back in the 80s as a kid. When I revisited Six Flags Great America in 2010 the Loggers Run was open, but Yankee Clipper wasn’t. I was bummed. I wanted to ride again for memory’s sake. I also remember way back in the day both respective flumes used both drop chutes; where each of the boats would alternate which chute they went down. I wonder why each ride uses only one chute these days?

    • @rexstick
      @rexstick  6 лет назад +1

      Yeah that was my first time riding it and I have only heard of loggers run, I like this flume a lot.
      Yeah I was wondering if they used the chutes diffrently at one point thanks for the info😎 and thanks for watching, btw I like the view of the park while on the ride very cool

    • @storm9685
      @storm9685 5 лет назад +1

      They used to have a lot more boats when they stopped having so many they welded off the second side on both flumes it is not uncommon to have a wait on both of these during peak summer days of 90-120 minutes Roaring Rapids too and before they demolished it Splashwater Falls too!
