robbalvey Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 All I can say is - THIS RIDE BETTER BE GOOD!!! Being that it's these guy's first full-scale project it's got to be a winner to impress potential customers. All the pics look AMAZING! Like this could be the first really AWESOME woodie since the opening years of Ghostrider, Rampage, Tonerre De Zeus, etc. IMO, there really hasn't been a "great" woodie in the US in quite a few years (Europe has gotten Colossos and Balder!)...I certainly hope this is it! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Movieguy Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Wow. That looks like one heck of a tunnel. I wonder if they're gonna put any theming in there. Probably not, which is fine by me. The darkness alone would be thrilling on this coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I think there are red lights in there... ala going to hell on hades Elissa "silly lights" Alvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockman89 Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I hope they are strobe lights because that would make an already insane section of track even more insane. It's probably just a neat idea that won't be implemented for some practical reasons others will notice even though I missed them. Either way, I'm begging for a trip to Wisconsin (That really sounds wrong.) for this one. One other thing, this really reminds me of a scene from Dogma. "They were sent to hell?" "Worse, Wisconsin."

BiCoastal Kid Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 ^Nope, it looks like tube lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterFanatic Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 The shot in the tunnel says it all. I cannot wait for this ride. If it tracks half as good as it looks, this thing is going to be unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaparri Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Yeah, some of my summer park plans are probably going to be altered so I can make it to the Dells (I've also been itchin' to get on Avalanche). This ride looks unbelievable. It has so much potential. I second Robb's view. This might be the next great woodie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgodsey Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 Come join the RideWarrior Midwest Conquest crew on June 10th as we conquer this baby. We might even get some surprise ERT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbeal Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I hope to god I can find a way (and a reason, other than this) to get up to that end of the US sometime soon-ish. It's not the easiest place to incorporate into a trip, but I really want to ride this now. It's looking rather awesome right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterCrazy Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I wish I could ride Hades this summer. It looks like its going to be a great coaster and the tunnel looks awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Movieguy Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I wish I could ride that one too. Having only been to SFDL, CP, and BGW in the last few years, I haven't had the priviledge of being able to ride a DECENT woodie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Force_4_ever Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Iam so excited about riding this coaster this season. that tunnel looks amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benzo41190 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I have just recently been in the Dells going to the Kalahari Resort (which is awsome). On Saturday we were driving by and I saw Cyclops running with people on it! So we drove by and there were people around the ride, so we asked someone and they said that they were running tests! We got to ride Cyclops for free because i think the Op's had no idea what was going on, when we were on it we noticed people on the station of Hades(couldnt see anything else) so we rode Cyclops which had no airtime but it was early. Then we drove away out of the dells then we saw a train accend the lift and there was no turn around for ten miles and my parents didnt want to go back( I also had my new camera for some shots but my parents were already mad).

MagnumForce Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Too me this is the most anticipated ride since Cornball Express, the last truly kick ass CCI IMO. This ride has so much potential, Zeus and Cyclops are insane, and these are the same exact designers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Force_4_ever Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 ^technicly not a CCI but I know what your saying, it is quite exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiCoastal Kid Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 ^^Cornball is the best, but I hear NM Rattler is pretty freakin' awesome, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkTums Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I've said it before, and I'll say it again... that ride better be as fricken good as it fricken looks!!! Elissa "OMG" Alvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Yankee Guy Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 ^^ HOLY CR*P!!! Look at that bend on that coaster!!! It's almost completely vertical! I am going to e-mail my Dad some of these pictures and demand that we visit Mount Olympus in the Dells when we go up to Wisconsin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cgodsey Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 ^^^ FYI, that IS completely vertical as the banking on that turn maxes out at 90 degrees. And I thought Thunderhead's banking was insane! YOWSERS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
