^^ They got the splash down perfect! It looks just like the train is skimming the water. Craziness. And some people might be more biased to Manta because it is new. I remember I used to LOVE Tatsu when it first opened. And now I am kind of used to it. Give it a couple months and peoples opinions might change. But it no doubt looks an amazing ride. I can't wait to get on it. Thanks for posting that video Justin87!

Wow I love way that splash down looks. And how close it appears to get to the water. I must admit that I am beyond jealous. If only SD could get a Manta. It looks as though you would definitely get a little wet in the back. But i'm sure its fun. I am amazed at how nice of a job they did with theming. I'm sure it even looks a million times better in person. Thanks for the photos everyone!

^ Especially in a place when during the summer the temperature can be be more than 100. And my friend said that it was the height. But I find it funny that people could ride X and be scared of Goliath. I think that X's drop is more intense. Well in the back. I've never been too scared to get on a coaster. But I used to get nervous for Deja Vu because I could never remember what to expect on the hill. Just a long drop. And she said that the lines weren't that bad. But i think its her first time going so i don't know what she is comparing it too.

I've always wanted to go to Bamboozle. It doesn't even look that crowded either. As compared to Warped.

And 21st is hopefully Media day. But I think this has already been established a while ago in the Terminator thread. My friend is at the park today but she said that everyone in her group refuses to ride Goliath. I could understand being scared of X or Tatsu. But Goliath?

So Grog loves Crown Royal? Was definitely as amazing as I thought it would be. Great job guys! It was like a million times better than the movie I saw last night.(Rest Stop)

I think its interesting how they are waiting to build the turn from transfer shed to station. Unless they have already completed it since the pictures were taken. Which wouldn't surprise me.

Thanks G-Force for posting that link. I totaly forgot to clarify that its the funstruction page on their Facebook and not the actual six flags page.

^ haha that would definitely be me. I'll be checking every 20 minutes.

I think that video has already been posted 3 times already I cannot wait to see the splash down effect in action. I wonder if they are going to test that part when the park is open for soft opening or wait until media day and just test it at night

The Funsrtuction site shows that the Transfer building structure is all up. Station structure is all up and they have started the pre show 1 building! It looks like they are back to getting stuff up in amazing time. Only 20 more days to go until media day. And the preshow one building is located where the brake run and the turn around meet. But it looks really small.

Wow. It would be awesome if the San Diego County Fair had one this year. The ride looks super smooth on the ground. But POV looks a tab bit different. Thanks for the video Robb!

Personally I have noticed that Sundays tend to be a little less crowded than Saturdays. But from the sounds of what everyone is saying it will be crowded anyways. You should get the Q-bot if you are really worried. It really is more than worth what you pay for it.

The Wild Arctic walrus is back? Last time I went was like all covered up with black tarps.

The entrance is going to definitely be A LOT more noticeable then Psyclones. It can't be worse than X's. I mean its like WAY off the path if you think about it. And X's bridge is probably about the same size and it does its job. I am getting so jittery for this ride. The anticipation is killing me.

^ It really seems like it would be super expensive to take out a piece of track and put it back in. I mean it would be so much easier to just take off the wheels of even separate the chassis from the cars.

^ WOW that seems a little xtreme. It seems like it would be easier to just remove the up stops and pick up the train off the track. I guess I will have to now spend hours trying to find this photo.

^ I wish my cat could do that. He's only special trick is attacking my feet. ^^ 1989 is like the best year ever! And I think this thread, along with most threads that tend to be all speculation, have their serious times and their fun times. On TPR you need to have a sense of humor otherwise most forums will annoy you. I love the random posts in some threads. Any word on when the art piece auction is? I would love to have that in my front yard, But the HOA may have a fit.

^ haha I've watched it before. Good video. And also read books on it. Went through a disaster craze a couple years ago.

^ I'm sure it depends on where the train is on course as well as which ride it is. It seems like it would be easier to just dismantle it. But i'm sure it super expensive.

^ I have to agree that the decals are a little over the top with color. But at the same time I wouldn't say that they are ugly. Maybe in person they look different.

I love how you threw that little bit in there. They should put that on brochures to visit Tenerife. I would visit just to see the famous runway.

^By X2 you really can't hear it. But you can see it.

Yeah its the wind. We've been having such weird weather. X has been open till around noon everytime I go. And Sky Tower never opens up. Was Superman running? Cause I heard it was down for a couple days.

everytime i text my friend the first thing he responds with is Hiya. So I told him that it reminds me of Ninja at SFMM. He then responded "Who is Ninja?" I thought it was interesting. Maybe I am expecting a little too much but wouldn't you ask what is Ninja more than who is Ninja.
