I hope there are no serious problems with the lift or the arch....worst case: the whole structure (lift and arch) doesn`t fit and they have to fabricate new pieces which would mean the ride opens late August
Maybe it doesn't really indicate financial issues, but something tells me this addition does not fit into Busch Gardens high quality attractions....
A flat ride would have been a better option in my opinion. They could have saved the money for that coaster to build a more unique one with a better hourly throughput a few years later....
Looks like the park is really getting a Premier Rides clone with terrible capacity....
What do you think?
The Park must be in a bad financial situation if they choose to install a ride like this....

I rode Skyrush over 15 times in 5 days. I find it really a bit rough or bumpty, especially on the outer seats. It happens after the secound airtime hill when your head gets bumpted against the headrest, its kind of shaky.
I rode Skyrush 5 times today and I musst say YES it is one of the worldbest coasters but I experienced brutal shaking especially in the outside seats.
Some people told me they got a headache because of that.
The lapbars are not the problem as long as you know how to hold you right.
I still think Expedition Geforce or Maverick are far better coasters because they are much smoother.
I really like the overall looking of the ride, but I still miss a top hat element/a beyond vertical first drop or a "Stengel Dive" like Maverick has.
I think that figure-8-element is also a bit boring.
I am excited to see the whole ride in action next week.
