Matt, I do wish the Orbit stayed too. But to tell the truth the ride reached the end of its service life. Since Schwarzkopf went out of business, parts for Enterprises were discontinued as well. I remember in 2015, Orbit was closed most of the time because of maintenance and need for replacement parts. The ride just became harder and harder to maintain as time went on. It may be gone, but it had a good run. Plus they use one of its cabins and actual sign for Fright Fest for the Six Saints Cemetery.
Hi, I do educational videos on how rides work (somewhat diluted though). I might be doing a video on free spins in the near future. Do you mind if we use parts of this video with proper credit to you? Let us know if or if not. Thanks. :)
I worked on the joker at great adventure and it was horrible... I absolutely hated it. It was holiday in the park so we were only running 3 trains, so waiting for the 2nd train to park was a nightmare. I hope I never have to operate it again.
@@realsfgamfan btw will we actually be able to vote for you for park president, also I recommend that you look into making the member lounge more acceptable we have Batman pass memberships they say oh it's a season pass can't enter. The real question is it not a membership? So please fix the member lounge if you become park president. Thanks love your vids six flags should send then to trainees so they know how to operate it and get an idea how to operate the rides.
I show what the program looks like at some point in my flumes video. I've got a good pic of it at Giant Drop so maybe ill be able to remember when I look at that one

My new favorite series on RUclips. The cynicism is off the charts, I love it.
“Only a certain amount of people should be trained on how to do this”

What enthusiasts wanted to get a pic of the height stick???

Sure. But please have a watermark on the screen crediting me as well as a link to the video in the description. Thanks :)
@@realsfgamfan watermark, do you have a specific logo or is text okay?
@@AmusementLabs text is fine thats what I meant
Hey love these videos of how you operate the rides. On this ride, do you know why there is a ragin cagent box at the top of the lift on purple side?
Was put up there by a certain mechanic for nostalgia while it was being built.
So I’m not the only one that noticed that.

Do you happen to have any pictures/videos of the old Batman queue that they removed for Joker?
I'd have to look. The entrance was by the Mardi gras stage, went over a river on a bridge and around crawler
Did you ever op Demon, because if you did i would love to see one of these vids of that
Operated every ride there. I can do demon at some point it is pretty basic. Thanks for watching!

sfgamfan do you have The Jokers speil?
Jokers a guilty pleasure ride. Not terrible, but not outstanding. 😐
What program does the computer run to see the information?
Don't remember the name of it. But most of the rides used the same program so it must be some standard PLC monitoring program
I show what the program looks like at some point in my flumes video. I've got a good pic of it at Giant Drop so maybe ill be able to remember when I look at that one
No wonder you don’t sound as much. Never realized those fins helped it spin.
