Height Restriction Notes
Despite predictions by some park employees that the height restriction would be 54 inches (137 cm); Six Flags, Intamin, and the state of New Jersey determined that the height restrictions would be 48 inches (122 cm). This comes as no surprise because virtually every wooden roller coaster has a height restriction of no higher than 48 inches (122 cm) (some even lower). The only restriction on a wooden roller coaster of 54 inches (137 cm) and higher is on Cyclone at Six Flags New England and Cyclone at Astroland.
