I was at SFGA yesterday and I just want to say I was impressed with the park. All the coasters were running but there were some technical problems with Jersey Devil, El Torro and Kingda Ka but the problems were fixed and I was able to ride all the coasters. All the lines were walk ons and for some reason they were running three trains on Nitro (I wished they were just running two so we weren't cooking in the sun as long waiting to enter the station). Still not the best place to be on a hot day since there aren't many trees or shade in the park. I can only imagine how hellish that place gets on a hot crowded day. It was bad enough I went into a store to get sun screen and the guy at the counter says you don't need that, we have lots of shade except for this entire stretch of stores. I was thinking the whole park is like that. The whole boardwalk section doesn't have a single tree, it's just a slab of concrete with rides on it. The nicest section is back by Medusa (if you go look for the wagon with the square wheels).
Overall the staff were friendly and a couple of times let me finish my beer at the entrance to a ride (one was an indoor coaster with AC which was nice). Speaking of beer they had a lot more places to purchase beer and some really good craft beer choices. You can also walk around with a beer but you have to have a wrist band saying you're over 21.
My other complaint is the locker policy for some of the coasters. You're not allowed to bring anything (keys, phone, wallet) on Jersey Devil, El Toro, Kingda Ka and Joker so I had to rent a locker twice at $10 a pop to ride those coasters (I asked an attendant which coasters have that policy - initially I thought it might be all of them). You can move the locker location so I rented one for Jokers and JD and another for kingda ka and el torro.
Overall if they planted some trees or provided more shade it would go a long way to making that park a lot nicer.
