The 2163 is in meters, indicating 7096 FT. The thermometer reads 103°, this could only mean one thing- drop angle! The man in the suit I'm not sure about. Edit: I should have realized this. The 2163 is Husain Bolts bib number from the 08 Olympics. The man in the suit is Robert Wadlow. Tallest and fastest Dive Coaster. -

Yeah, the merger is seeing some early setbacks. Obviously, there will be some growing pains and adjustments will have to be made to the chain to cut costs. But, I think in time this new merger will iron out it's problems and get back on track. PS: I shudder to think what the new SFOT Giga-Dive is probably costing. But, so far so good, construction appears to be on schedule.

First footers for the new "Record Breaking Launch Coaster". Any guesses as to what it's going to be. Photo courtesy of Coliwood Studios and Six Flags Great Adventure.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the info. I ,for one, do hope that something big will come SFSTL's way. If S:ROS is to be relocated then hopefully it will come to this park.
-
If they do decide to relocate S:ROS then I would definitely want to see it go to SFSTL. The park is in desperate need of a major new attraction, even if it's relocated from another park.
-
The problem is that CF isn't in the habit of relocating rides. Relocating S:ROS would be cost prohibitive. Ride deconstruction alone would cost millions. Plus the cost of clearing the land at SFSTL, and then ride transportation and reconstruction costs. It would make more sense from a financial perspective to simply build a new coaster.
-
There's no delay. Construction appears to be on schedule. The official announcement should be late August or early September.

Looks as though the ride could go vertical ar any time. I took these photos today. Latest constuction photos. More track has arrived and it looks as though the ride could go vertical any day now.

This is heartbreaking news! My most heartfelt condolences to the family. -
The positive reviews coupled with those great photos of Wrath make me really.....and I mean REALLY excited for Over Texas' 2026 Giga Dive!!
-
Glad to hear a positive review of Wrath! Makes me really excited for the new Giga-Dive coming to Over Texas next year!
-
I don't think CF is big into the idea of relocating rides anyway. If SFSTL gets a another coaster it will definitely be something new, just not extravagant like a hyper or giga.

Firebird is a solid coaster and would make a fine addition to the park.
