I'm pretty sure they were the heights listed on the blueprints found today. People subtracted the height of the ground (740ft maybe?) at the top of the lift hill from the height listed at the top of the lift hill. I'm not explaining this well but to answer your question from numbers listed on the blueprints, people were able to get the height of the lift hill and the drop.

Does anyone else find it odd they pushed FoF's entrance to the back of that area? When I was envisioning this area before today I imaged the entrance to Project X back where the "new" entrance to FoF will be.

^Yes it is. Reminds me of TTD. The queue reminds me of Banshee's how it is between the stations and the barrel roll and loop.
-
I'm so excited for this! I have an exam tomorrow, but I've been procrastinating and reading this all day. I'm interested to see how the midway will look after all is said and done!

"Both the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) have a rebuttable presumption not to build any antennae over 2,000 feet (610 m) above ground level. This is to prevent those structures from being a hazard to air navigation.[18][19] In recent years, the FAA has requested that height limits within 10,000 feet (3,000 m) of an airport runway be lowered from 250 feet (76 m) to 160 feet (49 m), as development near airports has increased." Found that online. I don't think it has anyhting to do with the airport, but I'm not saying I'm right. 10,000ft is just a little under 2 miles.
-
How close is it to the airport? This coaster could at least be as tall as the tower which is around 315 ft. if that logic is true? Right? Side note I like that the queue is in-between the lift hill and break-run. But I will say, it's going to be crowded back in that dead end that is X-Base for at least all of next year.
-
I would expect them soon honestly, but then again I thought they would be up by now. So i know nothing!
-
No I know they can be different. I didn't know that anyone would rather have a taller hill than a taller drop in a coaster. That's what I was saying.
-
I didnt mean it bad to you all. But people are acting like we are getting Little Bills 2.0. I think its fair to be harsh if the layout was not a giga, but from all I've seen I'm pretty set on it being that. People are getting angry about a 310ft lift or a 290ft lift. I don't really think that is something to get angry about. I understand that everyone wants the park to get the best it can, but we are assuming aspects of the ride that we literally no nothing about at all. All I'm saying is it seems a bit premature to complain! Nothing bad at all.
-
Yall are getting way to frazzled about this before we know anything. Your minds are thinking the worst thing possible. Try and sit back and enjoy the process. Who knows the next time KI will get a coaster of this magnitude.
-
I didn't even think whether having a higher hill or a higher drop would be debatable. What makes the ride is the drop height!
-
Thats life in general too. Every job you have, you will have to deal with grumpy people. Whether it is at a fast food drive-though, or a physician. I just try to not take it seriously and laugh it off

Late July early August. Anytime from like July 25th to like August 15th I'd say. Total guess though. ^MT was announced July 28th, and Diamondback August 6th 2008 I believe
-
I do find it odd that in the alleged plans that more of FHs area isn't used. That is the one thing that I don't quite understand at this point in time.
-
I respect that opinion.You could very well be right. I've thought these have been 100% real since I've seen them. I'm excited for the next few months to see how this plays out.

Which Giga name will be coming to Kings Island
KI FANATIC 37 replied to Cedar Fair Fanboy's topic in KI Polls
I answered custom because I believe the name will come out of left field like normal. These trademarked names have came up in the past (i.e. Mustang for Diamondback) that seem like they fit perfectly, but end up never happening. Maybe once signs start popping up like the Banshee signs I will change my opinion. -
People are getting a little too worked up about this. I understand where everyone is coming from, but at the end of the day it's just a rollercoaster. It will be fun. It will be new. It will be big. It won't be "just like Diamondback". Don't get too worked up, because everyone is overthinking this 1000%. EDIT: But I love the debate just don't get too frazzled

This made my day!

I remember seeing the plans for MT and I was disappointed. It was the first time I had seen plans like this. The ride turned out great. I think this is a similar situation based on the plans I have seen. A line does no justice to certain elements. Am i saying it will be the best giga? No. Do i know though? Not in the slightest. It's easy to be underwhelmed by lines like this. I do believe this is the layout though based on seeing the decoding from MT, Banshee, and DB.
-
I'd like as well. Apologies for blowing up the site with this. I would just like to see.
-
Can’t Forget the Royal with Cheese.
-
I don't know how anyone can distinguish what parts of coasters these are. Props to you all!
-
Speaking of iconic sounds... that Son of Beast chain in Action Zone. I loved that so much.
-
Just wanted to add how much I enjoy these decoding threads. I haven't been posting on this site much the last few years, but I've really enjoyed this last week. I can't wait for this upcoming year. Thank you to everyone for the information/speculation/pictures!
