Morey's Piers - Adventure Pier




Welcome to Adventure Pier.

This pier is filled with the more "extreme" attractions.

 The Skycoaster allows riders to fly out over the beach.

 SkyScraper features two pods that get slingshot around on this large boom..

 Scream N Swing is a S&S extreme swing.

 Luna Park: Chamber of Checkers is a maze that features several rooms that you have to figure out in order to escape.  One room requires you to find the "hidden" door to move on.

 The only attraction on this pier that is included in the POP wristband is the CCI built wooden coaster The Great White.

 The Great White dominates this pier and actually extends beyond the pier onto the beach.

 To start the ride, the track plunges below the pier before emerging into the lift hill.

The coaster is pretty smooth and features some great airtime moments.

 Most of the course is above the go-karts track that is on the pier.

One last look at The Great White and Adventure Pier.

Morey's Piers - Mariner's Landing

Welcome to Mariner's Pier.

This is the "middle" pier of rides at Morey's Pier.

 Musik Express

 Super Scooters

 The Pirates of Wildwood - this is a boat ride through scenes that feature 3D elements.

 Carousel

 Balloon Race

 Rip Tide

 Wave Swinger

 Waltzer (tilt-a-whirl).

 Maelstrom

Giant Wheel (156' tall), Flying Galleons (boat monorail)

 Ghost Ship is a walk-through haunted attraction.  I personally thought it was well done.  While the screamsters were not great, the triggered special effects got some good jumps out of the group I was in.  I especially liked the air blast finale.

 Rollie's Coaster is a classic Zyklon coaster

 Lots of tight turns and small hills make up this coaster.

 The main attraction on this pier is Sea Serpent.

 The serpent keeps a watchful eye over the crowds as the train gets pulled up the spike.

 The boomerang element is directly over the teacups attraction.

One last glance at the pier.

Morey's Piers - Surfside Pier



 Welcome to Surfside Pier.

 Double-Decker Carousel

 Kang-A-Bounce

 This pier has a lot of kiddie rides.

 Tilt-A-Whirl

 "IT" - this was a lot fun and I think rivals the forces of the bigger versions.

 Dante's Dungeon is a ride through haunted house.

 KONG - flyers on top of an elevated platform.

AtmosFEAR! - drop tower

 Rock and Roll

Cygnus X-1

 Flitzer

 Zoom Phloom is the pier's log flume ride.

 This ride features two full length drops.

 It also goes under the boardwalk.

 Doo Wopper is the pier's mouse style coaster.

 The coaster features 50's style car themed carts.

 The main attraction on this pier is the Great Nor'Easter.

 This Vekoma SLC coaster recently received new trains which feature the new vest style restraint.  This makes the ride much more enjoyable with virtual no head-banging.

 The coaster is intertwined with many of the pier's waterslides.

 It is really interesting how they were able to shoehorn the ride in on the pier.

 For all intents and purposes, this is a standard SLC, but it feels custom with its location.

 Never thought I would ever enjoy an SLC, but this one was fun.

The pier is also home to a very large waterpark, which I find strange considering the ocean is just a few feet away.
