Any news on Skyscraper?

so anybody know anything about pricing?

I heard $20 per ride (no discount for doubles) from someone working at Challenge Park, but don't think anything's official yet.

The structure is now standing.

Yes! I looked on the webcam (funcoast) and could see the nice yellow and red structure there! :)

I walked into Challenge Park this morning with my friend as she was heading to work, and we both stopped when we noticed Skyscraper was actually completely constructed. Challenge Park was actually supposed to close at 7 last night so that they could get started putting it up right away, but no one told Race Park or Ripcord until around 7:45.

Wow its red? Shocker! ;)

The column is blue, the propeller is yellow, and the cars are red. I parked next to the parts the last two nights in a row (love being able to have the beach to myself, no guests around, just me, my iPod, and the waves).

OKI couldnt find it on Funcoast so I thought it was all just red like all the other rides at CP. ;)

I saw that only half of it was up including the loading station. I touched the part that was in the parking lot for good luck and lo and behold ive had good luck ever since

The beams structure is yellow, and the seat chair section is red. The main supports are blue, though. For once CP painted blue paint along with the red and yellow that all the other rides have.

Yah, we were wondering why there were a lot of construction guys standing around watching us instead of doing work. Turns out we were keeping them from their work. Oh well, at least it's built now. I can't wait for the test rides!

Yup, the link broke, oh well.

Curious, does anyone think this will be open for the weekend?

I wouldn't be too surprised if it was. After a long delay I'm sure they want it up as soon as possible and memorial day/ soak city opening would be a pretty perfect time to do it.

Just wondering, But I looked at the point perks for the platimum pass, and it says a pass holder gets buy one flight, get one free. If I have a platinum pass, but a friend has a regular pass, will I get that person in for for free? Or not...

I think you're mistaken about the Platinum Pass. You get $10 off a flight (meaning $10 off the whole price, not per flyer), and buy one get one free ride on SkyScraper.

I can't wait for SkyScraper to open up, we've been bored to tears the first 2 weeks waiting for this thing to open. Hopefully it'll bring more business to our neck of the woods!

^ We can only hope. Otherwise I may have to buy one of those Gigapet things to keep myself occupied.

you can have mine. I'm pretty sure its somewhere on the floor of my dorm room.

I was talking about skyscraper, what I am saying is for skyscraper only, the point perks say that platinum pass holders get a "buy one flight, get one free."

Do BOTH people need to have a PLATINUM PASS to use this deal, or just one person have a platinum pass, while the other has a regular pass? ( in this case, my friend has a regular pass and I have platinum.) Will I get my friend on the ride for free?

Don't hold me to this, but I'm fairly certain the buy one get one free deal only applies to the pass holder, meaning you get two rides yourself for the price of one. I don't think you can get your friend on for free with it, but I could be wrong. And I don't know why they would call them "flights" on SkyScraper, that's odd.
