The Great White

Today we’re waiting in line at Morey’s Piers in New Jersey in the United States for our ride on The Great White. A hybrid wooden and steel roller coaster, it’s been in operation since 1996 and reaches its highest point 34 metres above the ground. Roller coaster enthusiasts say the ride’s descent under the pier shortly after the start is one of its highlights. A portion of the ride also journeys out over the nearby beach.
