DRACHEN_FIRE_FAN-BOY Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 On a clear day at the top of the lift hill, you'll be able to see Cedar Point. NICE! best joke ever. I was confused about why they were adding so many rides in a short ammount of time ala Six Flags, but Im guessing they are rewarding the park for almost surpassing them in annual capacity? Im not sure, but now that they have added three rides in a short period, what will they do now. Don't take this as an "Im ungreatful", beleive me, I am very happy (it gives me an excuse to go back to canada) I am just curious as to their next move. will it be maintaining the park as is, getting new trains for the arrows & vekomas, installing a bunch of flat rides? Im sure whatever they will do is awesome, and I am so glad i get to go to canada next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCW_Nut Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 ^ I'd go with maintaining the park. At least for a couple years. Maybe throw something back in splash works after removing the drop slides a few years back. Perhaps they can even work on yearly updates to Starlight Spectacular? I would love to see that show get more attention as it was quite amazing. Either way, I think for at least the next couple years they can rest a little in terms of the thrill rides and focus on the rest of the park infrastructure.

mightypotato Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 ^ I envision them doing what they did after Behemoth opened...that is, infrastructure improvements. For two years after Behemoth, there were no new ride additions, but improvements to the park and various restaurants. After that, we got Windseeker and Leviathan.

kunpc1 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 So the last "supported" piece of track was installed today. I've read that the supports were attached to the track later this afternoon. I was able to get some pictures from the employee lot as I was meeting up with an employee at the park today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_koppen Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I like that last picture, when you can actually get a perspective on how big this thing really is, compared to the Arrow looper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterlover420 Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Looks like the transition from -g to +g in that drop is going to be intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The49er Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Mind. 100%. Blown. Just look at the progress on this thing! KA-BOOM! Epic dominance over Canada! W00t!!1!1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XII Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Damn, that drop looks a lot steeper than I was expecting. It looks nearly vertical in some of those photos. I'm really hoping I can return to Canada's Wonderland soon to get on this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asimowalk Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Man, that drop is going to be intimidating when the train full of riders are looking down from the top. Imagine if Behemoth's drop really did end up as 85 degrees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddytheviper Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Is it just me or, does it look like it kinks inwards halfway down that first drop? Maybe it's just an illusion but... wow that look fierce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollerCoasterSmi Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 ^ I do kind of see what you mean, it does indeed look like that from some angles. Leviathan, like Wild Eagle is looking so much better in construction than in animation form. I would be really scared on this ride, with the slow (compared to Intamin's cable) lift hill (PMBO gets me every time). I am just imagining how insane the air time on the back row of this thing down the drop would be, I thought Silver Star's drop was awesome in the back row, this is taller and steeper.

Tanks4me05 Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Man, that drop is going to be intimidating when the train full of riders are looking down from the top. Imagine if Behemoth's drop really did end up as 85 degrees! When you are riding any coaster, lean forward into the restraints while riding. The drops feel about 20 degree steeper. So Behemoth will feel like a 95 degree drop. I've tried it many times on several different coasters (the effect is most noticeable on straight drops) and it works every time. But in regards to Leviathan, I can definitely say that I am now very impressed by the ride. It looks phenomenal now. It makes me really wish I had enough cash for both New Hotness and Leviathon.

DougMJr Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I'm planning out my trip for next year and just realized that Canada's wonderland is less than 3 hours from my house. Shame on me for not getting there sooner! That drop looks promising, I'll have to try to get back row my first ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
