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.

Famous quotes containing the words height, restriction and/or notes:
“The enemy are no match for us in a fair fight.... The young men ... of the upper class are kind-hearted, good-natured fellows, who are unfit as possible for the business they are in. They have courage but no endurance, enterprise, or energy. The lower class are cowardly, cunning, and lazy. The height of their ambition is to shoot a Yankee from some place of safety.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“If we can find a principle to guide us in the handling of the child between nine and eighteen months, we can see that we need to allow enough opportunity for handling and investigation of objects to further intellectual development and just enough restriction required for family harmony and for the safety of the child.”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
“Or bid the soul of Orpheus sing
Such notes as, warbled to the string,
Drew iron tears down Pluto’s cheek,
And made Hell grant what love did seek;”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
