Real Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Looks like they are installing the heartline right now. I bet before the end of the week we see updates from the CP website with pictures around that roll and hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRACHEN_FIRE_FAN-BOY Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 they didn't move anything right, b/c to me it looks like where Magnum was........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 The heartline roll is up. This could be one of the single most craziest elements Ive seen in awhile. http://maverick.cedarpoint.com/latest/gallery/ http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/webcams/webcam.cfm?chip=2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStitch626 Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Due to the banking after the roll which makes it a semi-roll, it looks like yet another 270 degree roll haha. Just keep rollin rollin rollin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP_RULES Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I guess the brakes after the launch are to make sure you dont enter this roll going too fast, can you imagine going through that at 70 instead of 50 or 60? This thing looks CRAZY.... I cant wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I'd already said it before: The heartline would be the most insane part of the ride. It's even more so than I thought! Dan "Is this even a Casey-approved ride? " Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotdane Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 The heartline looks INTENSE! Can't wait to ride it! And, according to the stats page, the ebaums link has given something like 11,000 views to this thread since last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vjgx Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 ^Well now at least we know that the servers can withstand it! Oh, and yeah. That heartline roll = insanity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downunder Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 That heartline really stood out in the animation for me as well, the next generation of head choppers - head smashers, it will scary at speed. I was non plussed when I first saw 105 foot height but I am warming to this coaster big time, how many other good ones out there that are a bit over 100 foot - Nemesis, Batman inverts, Hulk and so on.

TexTitan01 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 They already got the stengel up? Sheesh this is really truckin along...They'll probably have the rest of the layout up to the station finished before my homecoming (oct. 6). That heartline looks like it will be quite forceful, I bet it will feel amazing This ride looks like it will have it all. Airtime, inversions, launches, crazy drops, and sidewinding; the people at Intamin have really put some thought into this My hats off to you, Intamin Gods!

MARK Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 The first little overbank reminds me of that funky twisty part on Storm Runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECZenith Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 The overbank and heartline rolls are sick-looking! I can't wait to see the theming start coming in after trackwork is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStig Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Does anybody besides me thing that the roll is going to snap a few necks? Colin C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
