BBN Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Guessing they will or have already put a Gopro on that last piece of track to be installed, that'll be an awesome video 2

Nutterie Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 someone mightve said this already but the last piece is being kept over by the turnaround on the break run by the looks of it Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk 1
hotrodyoda Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I'd imagine just to stay out of the way until it's needed. 1
Waltny Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 So as I get ready to catch the last piece going up and in, are still photos better than halfway decent video? Potential quality of video can be found over my on Instagram when I got one of the wave turn supports going in. Here it is. I think I may take a couple stills, switch to video for the last slide in. 5 3
Maverick44 Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Still photos are great. Anything you post is amazing! @Waltny 4
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 So we're down to 3 more pieces? Or is it just 2? 2

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Looks like T-bone is about to lift another piece 5

LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Yep, just two pieces left. Three wouldn't fit. 3
collin.klopfstein Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Truck with the last piece is on the move! 5
Kodistict Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 I know this has probably been said before, but I loved following this construction! (First time I have followed a coaster construction). I can't believe we only have 2 pieces left! I think this will be an amazing ride and It won't disappoint a single bit. It's crazy to see how these things are actually built! 9
Maverick44 Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 It has been a wild ride from a few of us making concepts back in late 2018 to now. Its going to be sad weird not being able to talk about this. 8

I agree, from the Giga Speculation Thread to the Decoding 2020 Thread to the Orion Construction Thread, it has been fun to see the giga go from an idea to a reality. I can’t wait to start decoding Kings Island’s next project already! 3

Its going to be sad weird not being able to talk about this. yeah I know. I actually started making drawing concepts back in 2016 when Mystic was being teased and stuff and we all were thinking that was a giga. And back then was when I was pretty unrealistic. Like I had one of my concepts going overtop of Diamondback similar to the interaction of Shambhala and Dragon Khan, but a hyper and giga. But yeah, it's been one heck of a ride between us asking for a giga, predicting a giga, making concepts, to a giga actually getting built, and soon completed and opened! I remember this giga rumor was the reason I joined KIC in the first place. I joined back when that employee wrote giga in the snow. 4
Maverick44 Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 We can kick it into Cedar Point Decoding 2021! lol 3 1
collin.klopfstein Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 looks like they have dug a little into the ground for the queue line 1

LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Looks like the last two pieces will be assembled on the ground and raised as one piece. 2
BBN Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 Looks like it may be tomorrow for the last piece or 2 to go in at this point, they've kinda slowed down on the install it seems 1
jcovelli Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 looks like the last two pieces are being joined together for a single lift. 4
