coasterbilly Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 sweet! I'm really looking forward mostly to seeing what this B&M is going to be like, it's a really cool looking layout and since it's going to be brand new when it opens it should run beautifully!
trustkill22 Posted June 24, 2007 Posted June 24, 2007 The coaster I'm most looking forward to is Maximum RPM. I want to see if they can pull off that really interesting ferris wheel lift. But I think its going to be one of those added extra features that creates a lot of downtime for the ride.
Superman06 Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 hmmm this park sounds interesting i'll have to add it to my list for next year or so
alpengeist04 Posted June 25, 2007 Posted June 25, 2007 ^Boy, that list of yours just keeps growing and growing.
BrownStreak Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 I have been searching all over the place for an answer to this: Will the park be open year round?
Tomizzle For Rizzle Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 No it will be open 9 months out of the year and closed Jan, Feb and March. It could extend hours once the first year's numbers are looked at.
CoasterNut17 Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 Lift topping goodness! Have to get another update... www.discovermyrtlebeach.com/hardrockpark EDIT: 500th Post!
ECZenith Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Looking good! Especially for us Zeppelin AND B&M fans, it's not gonna get much better than this. B&M has definately been building some STEEP lifts recently, I love em!
kraken613 Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 If you look closly on the webcam you can see Led Zepplins loop is done! Its hard to see on the sky but if you look hard enough you can see it. Go back a few images and you can see it better. You can reallysee it on the Jul 19, 2007 13:27 image. www.hrpusa.com/video/cam.htm
ECZenith Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 Yep! You can clearly see the first drop and loop are in place! I love its location right on the lagoon, reminds me of Hulk in a way with its impressive visual aspect on the park itself.
coasterdude5 Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 ^ I agree, and with the music blasting throughout the ride, I think it's gonna be awesome.
kewlcoasterdude Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I really hope it is better than the Hulk. The is the most overrated coaster I have ever been on. Looks like it could be a good one though.
hemmy Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I really hope it is better than the Hulk. The is the most overrated coaster I have ever been on. Looks like it could be a good one though. I personally think it is the best ride at IOA. A great beginning, and the rest is just your basic B&M.
ECZenith Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 Wow, I really like Hulk, the whole layout is unique and the wheel-driven upward launch is one of a kind on a beemer. Anyways, back on topic, I'm really happy to see at least one new "standard" style B&M coming to life, not that I don't like the floorless effect but it's good to see another one in the tradition of Kumba and Wildfire.
kraken613 Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 If you look on the webcam you can see part of the Cobra Roll is up.
Eric_Smith Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 Where on the webcam do I look? Post a screen and use paint to circle it.
kraken613 Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 You can see it really good on the Jul 20, 13:20 picture.
thomas2 Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Update from july 24th. The cobra roll is halfway done. http://www.discovermyrtlebeach.com/hardrockpark/ledzeppelintheride.cfm
Disney Dood Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Is it just me, or does anybody else think the cobra roll should be a little taller?
kraken613 Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 They are really working fast since they finished the lift!
christianscoasters Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 ^^I agree! It's only half the height of the lift hill. It's gonna have some pretty sweet forces! Is it just me, or is this park AWESOME! I mean, who makes a park and starts out with a major coaster? Heck, a B&M! BTW, is that premier coaster launched or what?
Disney Dood Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 ^ I think the Premier coaster is lifted to the top of a ferris wheel, then at the top you drop off the side. It looks wicked awesome! I just can't wait for this park to open. My parents even said if it opens next summer, we might go to Myrtle Beach!
kewlcoasterdude Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 I love the color scheme, but the first loop looks to compact. It will be a very tight loop as opposed to many of B&M's large open first loops. We will only be able to tell after we ride it I guess.
Airtime&Gravity Posted July 24, 2007 Posted July 24, 2007 Hopefully if these inversions are tighter than usual, maybe it will be intense like the older B&Ms. It looks like a fun coaster, but it seems short and a little RCTish. The premier coaster concept seems great, but I'm seeing a lot of downtime with it. As for the rest of the park, it should be great, but I don't see how they'll finish the park with all the theming by April.
