The Great Nor'Easter in Morey's Piers ( Wildwood , New Jersey , USA ) is an inverted - steel coaster on the model Suspended Looping Coaster manufacturer's Vekoma , which opened the 1995th From 2008 to 2016 she sailed under the name Fly - The Great Nor'Easter .

The layout of the track largely corresponds to that of the SLC (689 m standard) , but due to space problems, the track was modified by Vekoma in such a way that the supports, brakes and station are different from the standard SLC.

Originally the rails were pink and the supports were pink-red. The track was repainted for the 2006 season. Now both the rails and the supports are white. In 2008, the runway was rebuilt for 1.2 million US dollars . This included new trains. Fly - The Great Nor'Easter has two trains with ten cars each. Two people (in a row) can be seated in each carriage. Originally the trains were equipped with shoulder bars. As a safety system, the new trains have lap bars and elastic vests that hold back the upper body.
