Can't tell if it's another crane or the support. I'll be going by there in about an hour or so and will report back if no one else beats me to it. 1
Beast Night Rider Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 You can now see it from the camera too!! This support looks huge!! 4

teenageninja Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 You can't see it from the photo, but that support is taller than the second hill. 3
Waltny Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 From that angle it does look like that support may be taller than the second hill and the next piece of track is in. 1
Kodistict Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 The support highlighted in purple is the support they put in today, and the tallest (next) support is the one highlighted in orange. So it looks like this element is going to get even taller! 7
calakapepe Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 We got beyond the 2nd hill today~ One more support to complete the 2nd highest crest on the ride! 6
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 So @JonahWilliamson when are you going to do your thing with the animation layout? 2

Waltny Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 @JonahWilliamson You going to procam in Amelia? That in itself is a little jaunt from the park and the traffic should be somewhat manageable back to the park by then. Are you coming down 71 to 275 to 32 to get there? You may hit traffic that way and add about 30 mins for cutting across Columbus on 71. The closer you get the south end of town the worse it will get. Last stupid question, why not go to Midwest photo which is a slight detour there in Columbus? Anyhow, safe travels and hope you enjoy the time. 1
Legofan237 Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 I'm assuming the turn around will be completed by next week as of right now. 1
RedSummit20 Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Per Don, the whole ride should be completed by the end of January! 2

calakapepe Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Looks like they are in the process of putting the highest support up right now 2
Beast Night Rider Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 You're right! Almost all of the left side of the highest turn around support is up. Hope we get to see some more track go up after!! 1
Kodistict Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Wow! we have a lot of more supports up! Edit: tallest support finished! 5 1
Waltny Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 The support went up and then came down Going up and in. Gone... 3
Waltny Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Forgive my double post, but it also looks like they took down the “front” part of that support structure as I watched from back here in the park by antiques. 1

RedSummit20 Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Look what I found. Found on Fye’s Facebook 10
