Jersey Devil Coaster is a steel single rail roller coaster currently under construction at Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey. It will be manufactured by Rocky Mountain Construction and was initially set to open in 2020, but has since been delayed to 2021. It will be the first custom-made RMC Raptor track and will be the world's tallest, fastest, and longest single-rail roller coaster.
History[edit | edit source]
On August 29, 2019, it was announced that Jersey Devil Coaster would be coming to Six Flags Great Adventure.[1]
The ride's first footers were poured in November 2019. Supports began to be erected in March, and two assembled trains arrived at the park.
As of April 2020 the dive loop, hill, zero-g stall, turnaround and zero-g roll had been installed.
On June 30, 2020 the park confirmed that the attraction would be delayed until 2021, stating this was due to delays in construction caused by the coronavirus pandemic.[2]
