  1. 3. The mid course would have to be there as a block so they can run multiple trains to be honest so easy to explain that, in this day and age capacity is key.

     

    Actually, I'm pretty sure the MCBR doesn't have the ability to stop the trains. They're just magnetic fins, not pinch.

     

    I was one of the ACE folks fortunate enough to ride the other night... the Sky Rocket is great! Airtime while upside down is pretty sweet. I can't wait to ride again.

  2. Anybody else as impressed by this thing as I am? I see it rated very highly on Mitch Hawker's poll, but in all the photo TR's I've viewed of Waldameer, nobody ever seems to elaborate on its awesomeness.

     

    YES! It's currently my favorite wooden coaster. I love it! I can't wait for some Ravine Flyer II ERT at CoasterCon in a couple weeks.

     

    The last coaster I rode was Phantom's Revenge at Kennywood.

     

  3. From Kennywood.com:

     

    Kennywood's Open, but the Sky Rocket isn't quite ready.

     

    The track is complete and work is progressing nicely on commissioning the ride. We are currently projecting opening Sky Rocket sometime during the week of June 21 if there are no unexpected delays.

     

    We're working very hard to bring you this great new coaster. Check back for updates.

     

    It sounds like they're trying to have Sky Rocket open in time for CoasterCon, if at all possible!

  4. The park has repeatedly said that the ride will require no more than two weeks of testing. They have been in the process of building the queue and have the electrical and drainage infrastructure in place. The queue and fencing can be all installed within a week's time and keep in mind that the entire ride is still surrounded by the original Turnpike fencing. This ride IS INDEED on track to open by Coaster Con.

     

    I like the way you think. I'm really hoping for some Sky Rocket ERT at CoasterCon!
