It seems that they're now pouring another layer of foundation. Very interesting.

And the parts for the massive crane are starting to arrive. Things are going to really start picking up now.

Come on, give us a full tower to work with for April 2nd! :D

I love it when a plan comes together!

Is it just me or does the foundation for Windseeker at Kings Island look alot smaller than Cedar Points? Maybe its just the way the webcams are set up?

Jcastle I was thinking the same thing. The circles diameter seems larger. Maybe it has something to do with Cedar Point's being on sandy soil, where as Kings Island is not.

What they're pouring now doesn't look like foundation. I'd guess it's just the loading area.

Theres a lot of extra weight on that base. Foundation, lots of sand, and lots of more concrete. Shouldnt have to worry about it tipping over. ;)

Oh great! Now I am worried about it tipping over, thanks Adam. :)

I agree with Brandon that this is the loading area they are pouring now, so unless they lied to us and CP's Windseeker is actually bigger than all the other park's, :) I would guess that the size differential is the result of camera angles and setup.

Well PB-Reader, we have been asking for a topple tower for quite some time. ;)

As long as they seat the really beefy guys on opposite sides of the ride it shouldn't wobble too much.

Wow. Quite out in the open it looks like. Unless of course they have parts to add to the sides... is that a possibility?

If the ride rendering is in any way 100% accurate, what we see there is all there is. Looks thrilling!! :D

I must say, originally I didn't think this ride would scare me in the least. But now seeing the seats, for some reason I think it's gonna be pretty freaky. Can't wait :)

Holy crap! I think i messed myself when i came across the KI seat pics on facebook I was expecting an over the shoulder harness but that's really open! It's going to be an experience riding it, I'm actually looking forward to it now!

I wonder how long until we see the head rests and seat backs faded and chipping away

Hi Mr Debbiedowner! How are you today?! ;)

Just Saying -__-
