New for 2006 - Skyhawk - Part II

well all of the other posts were talking about the webcam. so i assumed you saw people on the webcam. :) be a little more specific next time mrscott. :)

I'll do my best.

Well, they had to get promo pictures at some point.

Sure looks like they're having a good time. Makes me want to ride it even more.:)

I do that so I don't get accused of a useless post :)

No such thing as a useless post, only useless people.

Anyone know what these boxes are? Are they just loose article boxes, or lights, or something else?

Actualy, I think in the bottom circle there is also a Fan for the queue line.

if its even HALF as good at the tiny one at dorney park, its going to be a blast!! my friend and i paid TWICE to ride the screamin swing at DP and we never pay for upcharge rides. so, that should be some indication as to how good the 60 foot tall one at DP is. i'm sure 125 feet is going to be even that much more fun!! :) i can't wait for my trek up in august.

Looks like the rider images are down from the Skyhawk page. Either that or I've gone retarded and am looking in the wrong place.

sure enough - they removed them.

Strange. I wonder why.

Woohoo - Not retarded.

the web designers probably jumped the gun and published them before media day on thursday. we were probably to believe the "new" pics of people on the ride were all from media day. aren't the red cross people supposed to be the "first" people on the ride anyways? :) maybe that's why. ha ha!

The red cross winners are the first public riders. That is not until opening day. I'm sure the builders and Monty/Dick/John have all already been on it. And then there are all the media folks on Thursday.

And besides Monty/Dick/John...

You forgot all the hardworking seasonals ;).Who have been working their asses off these last few weeks to make the park what it is, they deserved a little sneak peek at what everyone else is expecting.

The Red Cross Auction is for the first ride technically, but it shouldn't matter. It's all for charity, if I had the money I'd do it in a heartbeat, but sadly I'm the closet thing to broke.

I'm so broke, I can't PAY attention!! Ding, Ding, Boomp.

Badum ch!

There are the pics if anyone is interested.

Live spiels, anyone? Thank you Jack Falfas. You are appreciated.

^What?

I'm wondering how you got the link to the pictures. I can't seem to get to them through CP's site.
