Six Flags Great America - Chicago
Six Flags Great America In Chicago
Ever wanted to fly like Superman? Six Flags Great America will let you on the one and only Superman Ultimate Flight. Imagine ripping through the air head-first along 2789 feet of nearly invisible red, blue and yellow steel track at speeds up to 60 MPH.
If Superman is not your favorite Super Hero, why not be Batman? Batman The Ride, rockets you out of the Bat Cave at speeds up to 50 MPH along 2 vertical loops, 2 single corkscrews and a one of a kind heartline spin with a zero gravity force giving you a sense of weightlessness.
Once you are done being a Super Hero, you can launch yourself off V-2 Vertical Velocity. V-2 Vertical Velocity rockets you in less than 4 seconds to 70 MPH up and down an 185 foot steel spiral.
Make sure you also experience Deja Vu. Get shot up a 90-degree tower face down and then be dropped 178 feet at 65 MPH. Then you race head over heels through a loop, then through a butterfly turn and finsish of the ride on your back through the whole ride again but this time it's backwards! Hence you experience Deja Vu!
Your Super Hero experience is only about 45 minutes away from Chicago. To get there take I-94 or I-294 West. Exit Grand Ave. (Rt. 132) East in Gurnee, Illinois. Six Flags is located immediately on the right.
