It was open earlier that day, so I guess I just got very bad luck because all of the other telescopes where open lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fyrfyter Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I know the outriggers on our aerial truck on my department spread out 20’, and our Bronto is 114’ tall. I hate to see what their spread is. I only know of one local department with a Bronto. Yes, 20 is a lot, but when you have unlimited concrete space, I suppose 20 isn’t much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohiocoasterfan Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Based on those photos it looks like they are staging the next lift hill supports. It will be interesting to see how they install this as it will be multiple support pieces bolted together. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think since it's a new coaster it would have at least a small line but nope, people are so ungrateful for what KI does for us smh. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it says the KI engineers said they think the coaster could hit 92 or maybe 93 mph. That would be awesome if that is the case. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Is this some kind of massive washout from the rain? Edit: Nevermind, that's a darn tree. wth. Cleo is on the move. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to the trouble of painting those buildings is something that most people won't even notice but the attention to detail shows that the current management really finds ways to plus the area and the park overall. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonahWilliamson Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I need to update the color diagram for Orion to add the bottom of the drop!

I use a Canon 1DX Mark 2 at work! Its real nice but it pays itself off so it makes sense to buy for work... dont take roller coaster pics on it... ahhhh too late 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I like that they painted them but I think they should have been removed and rebuilt elsewhere. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
