Looks great, Tony! Thanks!

Looks great. Definitely looks faster in the POV compared to the off-ride footage.

Very nice. Can't wait to see if what I am expecting to be the most intense side from the POV's is what is the most intense in life. Come on vacation! And weather is looking good so far.


You boneheads need to learn how to roll up the extension cord for the fluggegecheimen when you're done with it!

The Right side looks like the "near miss" side! Coming close to the track multiple times and seems like a better "near miss" on the keyholes!

That looks amazing!!! My only question is why did it take so long to come out?

Thanks T ~ looking forward to riding this beast.

I guess it was just all for hype, I didn't notice any surprises.

Great work, Tony...definitely worth the wait, and now I feel like an 8-year old on Christmas Eve.

Happens every year. ;)


Promoter of fog.

And if memory serves me right, this was shot with most of the 'soft' wheels still on...

The right side definitely looks more intense with all the near misses.

So--- can anyone confirm or deny that there is grass planted in all of the low spots on the ride? It looks like freshly poured cement. Please let it be grass. That's all :)

I don't think so because in this video, the sign is up. I'm sure there were more than one pov shot. This probably being most recent.
At first I thought the left side was going to be my favorite but after watching this I think I might be wrong. The right side looks even better than the left from the video. I actually said 'woah' watching the video while going through the keyhole. I'm so pumped to ride.

The low zones have gravel.

Cameras at bottom of Immelman, just before Airtime hill. Pause POV (right side) at 0:54

I "rode" both sides, and I think I'm drawn to the right side too... Of course, I will just be thrilled to ride the real thing at some point this summer - no matter where I get to sit! LOL Wish it was this weekend, but unfortunately I will miss all of the festivities... HOPE EVERYONE GOING HAS A GREAT TIME! :)

Definitely looks better than Disaster Transport.

That immelman looks like its got a nice little kick to it, that train whips over pretty nice.

Definitely lacking some green around the ride though.

Btw, did any one else take a glimpse as how long the queues are?!?!

P.s.
On the left side if u pause around 1:15, you can see that Blue Streak has undergone some surgical repairs after its recent injury!!

now offride? ;)

^^You beat me to it. I was just about to mention the Blue Streak repairs. Anyway, the ride looks really amazing. I love the drop, looks incredible! I hope they put grass under some of the ride. (It's more visually appealing) The dirt reminds me of Mantis. This is going to be a great ride. That queue is really long. I don't think we'll need too much overflow, at least I hope not.
