-Isn't it funny how the entrance is going exactly where the render showed it would be. -_-

I still believe the entrance is staying.

//Not really.

This is a great view. Now I wont seem like the dork of Pointbuzz by asking so many questions. :)

You should probably still get a smartphone though. ;)

Oh I'm sure you'll still ask questions lol.

That webcam can be viewed larger.

hahahahahaha. +100, lol.

Now that I see the true spacing between the keyholes, do you think that will be quite a snap to flip you from one side and then over to the other to face the other way? Just hoping this is fun but not painful.

So, studying the new cam vantage point , leads me to a couple of inquiries. On the left of the view, all of the lockers are now gone, where will that capacity be relocated to?
And secondly, what is known about that amazing old tree?

No Mike. I mean it could be painful but if they thought it was because of the space they would have designed it differently

And Mike, If it is like any other wing coaster, The ride will be totally different on the inside seats as it is on the outside seats.

Yeah its supposed to be a different experience on each side which is cool because it will make people want to try it twice

Oh I hope to ride both sides and inside/outside. Just that Maverick looks fun and I had my opening year rides but some of those turns are just painful. But this is a new design and I have never been on a wing coaster. I am excited to get to ride this.

IMO, Maverick is the best coaster in the park if you know how to ride it.

As long as you keep your head back it's great. If not your head can get banged around a little. But keeping your head back and relaxing your legs leads to some great airtime, especially out of the tunnel

^ Also never wear anything loose like the ride operators tell you. It will fly over the bunny hills. :)

Gatekeeper I think will be less jerky but hopefully just as intense

I've been to nearly all the Cedar fair parks (and quite a few six flags), and I must say Maverick is still my favorite roller coaster. I've never experienced any pain, except for the occasional thunder thigh smash at the end, but I'm always too busy wiping my tears of joy to notice.

Intamin aside, I really like the feeling of modern B&M coasters (Diamondback, Behemoth, Leviathan, etc.)...I always wanted a coaster like it at CP, and I'm guessing GK will provide that.

A lot of people think that B&M's latest coasters have been forceless compared to the 90s B&M coasters. I haven't been on enough of the 90s coasters to have a good comparison though.
