silver2005 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I feel between Vortex, Banshee and Invertigo that blue is already well covered. I'm starting to shift towards yellow track and either burgundy or magenta supports (see Raging Bull). I really want a good yellow in there somewhere. Since its in X-base, make it sci-fi sun themed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver2005 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 ^I liked Medusa's green (prior to being Bizzaro'd) that was so bright it was into the yellow spectrum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedar Fair Fanboy Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I hear to point out. The color for that giga coaster might be Grey, to go with the entire X-base or maybe a new name. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoriell Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Personally I'd like to see green track with black supports. On another note, Anyone have guesses on the name? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand So like Invertigo’s original paint job? That one didn’t age too well. edit: see also Diamondbacks lift hill supports. If we did yellow and red, no matter the shade, it’d look like a reverse Diamondback almost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 ^I'd go darker on the supports to prevent that kind of fading. Diamondback's red has stood up pretty well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I think Red and Yellow show fading the most. I doubt they would want to go with anything that is close to DB colors? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver2005 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I'd probably settle on yellow with sky blue supports then, or some blue brighter than Invertigo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohiocoasterfan Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 It’s hard to speculate on a color without knowing the theme. If it was alien based I’d go green or dark blue track with black supports. If it somehow ties into beast I’d go orange track with silver supports. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lines will be short, they won't see it. I can't think of a certain color. Green is a color that is really in the park.

coasterfanatic83 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I believe I said this during Banshee's construction, but I hope the park avoids white in the color scheme. I would be concerned with pollen/dust/dirt making the white look dirty, especially if we are back in the woods. I also will never own a white car for this exact reason. I think it looks great on GateKeeper, but they don't have trees/dirt like we potentially could. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theoutdoorkid107 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Something like Riddlers Revenge would be neat, maybe with a brighter green. Credit:https://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=21213&start=20 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spooky21 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I would love to see a dark green track with an orange belly and tan supports. Grey track and black supports would be nice too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeeastFarmer Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 In one of the YouTube videos I have watched about Copperhead Strike, there was a whole section about the theming in Byrds Orchard (I think thats the name?).

Benjamin22 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I don’t know if this is a teaser but the photo makes it look very much temporary and not a long term prop or theming. Wonder if we’ll see any teasers come Friday. I kind of doubt it is considering there’s a similar looking sticker of Maverick. Here’s an article showing the several references from other parks. https://www.coaster101.com/2019/04/06/examining-the-easter-eggs-of-carowinds-blue-ridge-junction/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
