Hydrus

Casino Pier is opening this weekend, weather permitting, and will feature two fun and adorable new rides for kids.

Just in case you didn't know, Townsquare Media Jersey Shore operates 94.3 The Point, 92.7 WOBM, Beach Radio 104.1 FM, 105.7 The Hawk, and Shore Sports Network. It wasn't long ago all five brands hosted a family fun night at Casino Pier in Seaside Heights. It was great being out on the boardwalk with my fellow employees, their families, and all of our loyal listeners.

As I get older the coasters get better and better and I get a little nervous standing in line.

The new rollercoaster at Casino Pier had it's official Grand Opening on Friday, and we were there!

I was in Seaside Heights last night, and I noticed that the new Ferris Wheel at Casino Pier was all lit up. I shot some video. It looks really cool. Enjoy! Just a little side note...The new Hydrus Roller-Coaster at Casino Pier in Seaside Heights opens TOMORROW at noon...

No word when the new Ferris Wheel and Hydrus roller coaster will be open for riders. Both rides still need to go through state inspection, testing, and training but this past weekend, the Ferris wheel put on a little show.

Everyone is talking about the new rides coming to Casino Pier this Summer. Of course, we have seen videos and pictures of Hydrus, the new thrill-ride coaster that is almost completed but we haven't heard or seen much about the new Ferris Wheel that is being built...

This video was taken about a week ago or so. We just hope that we have good weather this Summer and it will certainly be a great year for Seaside heights!

The new Roller Coaster will be called.....
