thatguyfromohio Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 What will make the giga seem even taller is the train on it, look how small it is on fury. I already think ours looks bigger in person because they look a very similar height, but ours is buried in the side of the parkSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4

Born_in_'72 Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Cleo is on the move!!! Headed over to the other side of the ditch to work on the wave turn.... 3
TheFloppyDisc Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 It looks like possibly the last piece of Artemis is gone now. Also, I just noticed that these supports are still here so they probably need to get those off before they can move the big cranes to the area over to right. 3

In Fury's construction time lapse, you can see that those supports weren't removed until after construction was finished. So I assume that will happen with this too. 7
Ki Man Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 First glance from the webcam coming back online I thought someone had just mirrored Millennium Force and pasted it in. Looks pretty great! Can't wait to see the wave turn rise up. That looks like the highlight of the ride in my opinion. 1 1
LintemuthStudios Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Looks like more track has gone in! 7
FreedomPenguin Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 They will knock out couple pieces a day imo 1
Fishleehooker Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Yeah it looks like another support then more track today! 1
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 More track going up now? Cleo has a piece of track in a weird vertical angle.. 2
Fishleehooker Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Definitely more track was already laid today....It also kinda looks like out of the picture more stuff is going on. For example, it seems more supports are being placed...I think. It's hard to tell. 2
Born_in_'72 Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 I believe they are pre-assembling the next large support for the wave turn on the ground. 3

kissfan4 Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Wish they would either turn the Orion cam a little more, or raise up and turn the Diamondback cam so we could see the turn around, and Vortex come down. 1

LintemuthStudios Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 They've gotten quite a lot of work done today already! 5 1

KI FANATIC 37 Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 I know this has been said a lot, but I love that blue color. Looks much better than the renderings in my opinion! 10

The drop also appears more pronounced/steep than in renders, I'm very curious how the 'wave turn' will look (and obviously ride) irl, it's massive! 4
Kodistict Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Is it just me? Or does the way the sun shines on the banked track on the wave turn make it look like a pretty quick and snappy bank? 3
tuxedoman52 Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 I'm hoping for the world's tallest Zero-G-Stall instead of the wave turn. Oh well, I can only dream. Yes, that wave turn looks intense and very snappy. Hopefully we'll keep some good speed through the element. 3

It would be nice to see the demolition of Vortex tbh. Its not every day you see massive demolition you know!

KingsMills79 Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Just an observation from the webcam...does it look like the walk back to Orion from the midway will be the same distance as it is from AZ to The Bat? I know Firehawk's entrance queue was right there by the lockers, but from the webcam view, it looks as if Orion's (actual first) entrance queue will be a good ways back there. Am I wrong on my visual measurements? 1

I'm sure there will be another software update to the webcams and internet when demolition time comes around, so doubtful we'll have a chance to see that 2
Fishleehooker Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 I went to Ikea today for a bookshelf and was excited and stunned to see Orion all the way from I75. It's only brief, but I saw it on the way down and back. It's amazing. 6
