DougMJr Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I feel a small boy in tights the days leading up till christmas... No, I fixed it! In all seriousness though. I'm very excited about this project and also feel the anticipation leading up to its opening. I am so glad I'll be able to ride this next season.

A.J. Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Can we get back on topic puh-leese? Does Christmas Candylane go into Comet Hollow? It seems like the atmosphere of the event will be completely different this year with all the Skyrush construction going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I was there for Christmas Candylane, the Wave Swinger was open and they moved one of the Merry Dip Fun Slides into Comet Hollow as well.

DJeXeL Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Rumor has it via Screamscape that Sooper Dooper Looper will be receiving new trains from Gertslauer for the 2012 season.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ccron10 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Rumor has it via Screamscape that Sooper Dooper Looper will be receiving new trains from Gertslauer......... If you watched this video, it's no rumor: Already into Day 2 of vertical construction and the coaster has now reached an approximate height of 40 feet: Photo by Hersheypark. Heading over to the park later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harper83087 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 ^^Wasn't that said a few months ago? Or am I thinking of a "will they or wont they?" discussion? Also, is anybody else not seeing pictures? I can't see pics on this thread, the IAAPA thread and a few others. It could be firewalls at work but I'm just curious.

PennStater Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Also, is anybody else not seeing pictures? I can't see pics on this thread, the IAAPA thread and a few others. It could be firewalls at work but I'm just curious. They're working here. Your work's Internet filter is likely blocking the images that are coming from Facebook (most of the ones in this thread, at least). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or am I thinking of a "will they or wont they?" discussion? Hersheypark confirmed this to us at East Coast Bash, while we were on a backstage tour! At that time they weren't sure what they would look like - glad to hear that they're keeping the lap bars and (hopefully) the appearance intact!

cal1br3tto Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 ...glad to hear that they're keeping the lap bars and (hopefully) the appearance intact! Same here! I'm really appreciating Gerstlauer's lap bar-friendliness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fooz Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Looking good, it seems this project is about to get very exciting! Its just disappointing that the ride wont be open until at least memorial day now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryce232 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Whoa, lots of supports going up! From Hersheypark's Facebook: We’ve been told that maybe, just maybe, we might see a piece of track go up before the weekend is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synshine Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Its just disappointing that the ride wont be open until at least memorial day now. Given our last couple of winters, I didn't expect an opening earlier than that. Then again, this time last year there WAS snow on the ground.

jzoole Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 I love how the track flys right along that rock trench thing. That seems like it will be a cool effect in the far laft seat. God I can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
