IndyGuy4KI Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 We are close to being done decoding the 2014 attraction! With the announcement being made in just a few days, I think we need a new thread to talk about the construction progress as we see it develop over the next 6 to 8 months! We can chat about the progress and post pictures of construction updates we have taken at the park. (I will rename the thread once we know for sure what the name of the ride will be.) I will start out by posting a construction picture I took during the Coasting for Kids Event on 6/9/13 on the EF showing the footers! 6
Thrill_Biscuit Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Cool! Will you try and get the exact settings each time, so we can see an amazing, progressive time-lapse? 1
calakapepe Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Sweet, we shall use this once the announcement is made!
PyroKinesis Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Are there any more current pictures from the Eiffel Tower? Probably more work done since the 9th of June.
ohiocolts Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Are there any more current pictures from the Eiffel Tower? Probably more work done since the 9th of June. There is now a webcam pointed at the construction site on Kings lsland's website. 4
KI FANATIC 37 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 This will be the popular thread of the rest of the year! Can't wait till Thursday! Wonder if this will be as popular as the Diamondback Construction Thread?

XjoshhyX Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I wonder how often we will see updates on construction from Don on the PR front. CP did a great job of that with Gatekeeper. Made me feel like I was there daily almost to see the progress.

IndyGuy4KI Posted August 8, 2013 Author Posted August 8, 2013 For those KIC'ers at the park today post your construction pics so we can see what is going on as the day progresses! 1

coasterfanatic83 Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Nope if anything it will compliment it! 2
shark6495 Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 In the teaser video the tomb stones are labeled Bat, King Cobra, Screamin Demon, and Son of Beast... 11
coaster_junky Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Did they announce the height of the lift hill during the event? I don't see it on the website...
IndyGuy4KI Posted August 9, 2013 Author Posted August 9, 2013 Did they announce the height of the lift hill during the event? I don't see it on the website... I do not see it either and I watched the webstream, but not sure if Don or Greg said or not?
IndyGuy4KI Posted August 9, 2013 Author Posted August 9, 2013 In the teaser video the tomb stones are labeled Bat, King Cobra, Screamin Demon, and Son of Beast... This has to be the best teaser video I have ever seen! Just amazing! 2
Oldschool75 Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Greg said vertical construction will start right away 1
coasterfanatic83 Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 I am interested to see what happens to Sling Shot.
