I wont say exactly, but if you look at the webcam and google maps you will be able to find it and even go there as it is a public space. With that said, I drive in and out of this area, I do not hang out or even get out of my car when I do go over there. 1
Born_in_'72 Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 They are raising the next support into place!! 6

Maverick44 Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 We might get a good portion of the air time hill today. 4
Maverick44 Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Those are awesome pictures! Thank you so much for always posting great pics. @Waltny 4

Thank you so much for always posting great pics. @Waltny There is nothing new there, I jumped the gun. Sometimes that webcam really messes with the eyes and then you think you see something in this jumble of track and crane booms that isn’t there. Everything that I can see is current out of place and MUCH further toward the lifthill than it looks on the webcam. I have to admit I’m confused on where this piece is going to actually jut up from tree line at. I hang my head in shame.... 1

It would probably be just to the left of the wave hill from your photo's perspective. Something roughly like this. 5
Maverick44 Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Looking at the cam and looking at the supports of the wave hill. I don't think the new support is tall enough yet to be seen over the main entrance. Also what @LovinMeSomeBanshee said is correct as well. It would be to the left a bit. 2
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Yeah, looking at my edit, I think I put it too far to the left. I think it would be slightly to the left, but not as much as I put it. And we'd probably be looking at the hill straight-on, so you may not be able to see both sides of the hill. Probably something like this. 3
Maverick44 Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 If you look you can see the new support is smaller then the support you can't see that is on the wave hill. I think you you have the sport very close its just to small to see right now. 2
Waltny Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 It can be seen, I stand corrected once again.... Middle of the hills barely jutting above the tree line. I am surprised at where this is in relationship to the second hill. I think the perspective really through me off at first as I though it would be seen toward the beginning of what we can see of the wave turn which should put the helix to the right of the drop and maybe even the lift from this angle. 7 1

Born_in_'72 Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Track is going up and in right now..... 4
Waltny Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Well, missed that call. They must have rushed back from lunch as I saw them leave... It is almost near impossible to see from the drop off parking lot. Look far bottom left in the second image. 6
ThrillKingsFitzy Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 It won't slow it down much. It's a giga coaster. By the time it hits that trim, the train will still be around 80 mph. 6
Waltny Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Looking at the original file, he may be right. You will feel it heavily in the front if it’s like i305 trim on the airtime hill and may kill some serious air there. I expected them to burn off the speed in the helix as it seems to be the B&M way. Somewhat sad faced I also want to add how crazy it is that @Gplez90 was able to see that. 2
hotrodyoda Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 The trim can even be seen on this hill in the POV renderings. 2

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Doesn't fury have a trim on its largest airtime hill? I don't think it'll slow down the train too much. Remember this coaster isn't about the airtime. We have 3 other coasters that are mainly airtime focused (DB, MT, and Racer). 3
hotrodyoda Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 I believe the trim is visible in the blueprints that we all have seen. 2

Well, the wave turn will gave airtime, the turnaround might give airtime, so will the speedhill, big airtime hill, and the twistout, and maybe even the little pop into the breakrun. It is more about airtime than any other giga out there. 2
rhyano Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 As Waltny said, the original file shows a trim brake in that spot, so yes, that's a trim. 5

Maverick44 Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 Leave it to B&M to trim it! Lol In all seriousness i bet you won;t even notice it. Unlike other B&M's. 3
rhyano Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 I wonder if it'll make that weird noise that Fury 325's trim makes 5 1
