Experience the new roller coaster at New Jersey Shores

Including Patriot's Run roller coaster and Jenkinson's Boardwalk attractions

Jenkinson's Boardwalk in Point Pleasant Beach is set to unveil a thrilling addition for the 2026 summer season: the Patriot's Run roller coaster.

 

This new attraction stands over 35 feet tall and features a classic lift hill, offering an exhilarating experience with twists and turns suitable for all ages.

 

Adorned in bold red, white, and blue, Patriot's Run celebrates America's 250th birthday, embodying the nation's spirit of freedom and adventure.

 

The coaster replaces the beloved Tidal Wave, which concluded its final rides on September 1, 2025.

 

Drawing inspiration from the nostalgic Flitzer coaster, Patriot's Run incorporates design elements reminiscent of its predecessor, including an American flag-themed flame motif.

 

This addition marks a new chapter for Jenkinson's, introducing an attraction that appeals to a more adventurous audience while remaining family-friendly.

 

Construction is progressing steadily, with the park planning to announce the official opening date through their website and social media channels.

 

Visitors can look forward to experiencing this exciting new ride, which promises to blend adventure with a celebration of American heritage.
