Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I'm also hoping for light up wheels, but it's starting to look less likely for that imo. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 There’s some sort of infestation in the construction fence box. Not sure what to make of it... 5 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't you also tell me you have permission to fly over the park during the off season? I can't wait! More than likely. I do, but I also will not be uploading every single picture I take. They will also be ran through the park first before posted, out of respect. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrickbateman86 Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I feel like with Orion they have just trimmed the fat on the other gigas. It's more succinct and devoid of the pandering elements. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rivertown Rider Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I like that they are trying to preserve as many trees as possible with this layout compared to Diamondback where they seemingly just took out everything in a half mile radius. Obviously a lot trees were still taken out but it doesn't appear that they are taking anything out that is not necessary. 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decyferite Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Is the Tower open during Haunt? I'd love to be able to get up there to get shots well into construction... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivertown Rider Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 ^ It is usually open the first few weeks of Haunt then it closes down for Winterfest prep. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there airplane police lol all the flying makes me so curious. If you dont mind me asking how much does it cost to take off and fly over KI? Where do you take off from? Can you take passengers? Possibly Passengers with a RED camera to film ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 The only thing with this new coaster is the insanely high brake run. Seems typical of the B&M giga I guess to take off some of the workload off the brakes but it just looks extremely odd. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifetimecoaster Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I'm not going to lie, every day I jump on the KI website to see if that new cam is up yet. I have to imagine that they'll start going vertical in the near future. The footers are there, and there is steel showing up. I'm still stoked for a new ride experience. Can not wait for next season 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jallie79 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I personally can't wait to see what the area will look like with the Area 72 retheme. What's everyone's thought process on it. I am on the fence as to weither or not it's eventually going to be an entire new area (extending down to the old DA entrance). I dont think we'll see that during this off season though. I still feel that they are eventually planning to move the maintenance shop out to the new building that was built earlier this year and removing the current shop. Don't really wanna see much past the end of Racer though. I think the fact the turnaround is secluded (sort of) will add to this ride. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast, and Diamondback being out away from ambient light when you're doing a dark ride is AMAZING. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejenkins1 Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 They are putting up what looks to be a building about 2/3 the way down the ride in the woods. You can see the concrete from the Blue racer. What will that be? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s talking about the large slab of concrete on the back half I think that’s just a large footer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
