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!

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.

[SharkTums]

I think there are red lights in there...

 

ala going to hell on hades

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]

^Nope, it looks like tube lighting.

[CoasterFanatic]

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.

[Scaparri]

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.

Come join the RideWarrior Midwest Conquest crew on June 10th as we conquer this baby. We might even get some surprise ERT

[robbeal]

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.

[CoasterCrazy]

I wish I could ride Hades this summer.

 

It looks like its going to be a great coaster and the tunnel looks awesome.

[Movieguy]

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.

[M_Force_4_ever]

Iam so excited about riding this coaster this season. that tunnel looks amazing.

[Token Yankee Guy]

I can't wait to ride this coaster when I head up to Wisconsin this summer.

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]

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.

[M_Force_4_ever]

^technicly not a CCI but I know what your saying, it is quite exciting.

[BiCoastal Kid]

^^Cornball is the best, but I hear NM Rattler is pretty freakin' awesome, as well.

[cgodsey]

Look at the first photo in that group...

You know they say a picture is worth a thousand words.... I have three in mind...WHAT THE F%#@

[SharkTums]

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

[Token Yankee Guy]

^^ 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.

[coaster1]

I think I just messed up my pants.

[CoasterFanatic]

This is fricken rediculous.

[cgodsey]

^^^ 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!!!

[M_Force_4_ever]

Hades looks like it will defenitly one insane coaster, Iam looking foward to riding it.
