^How does it look exactly like the one at SFMM? :?

Rocket Rodder · December 22, 2005

The color of the tracks and supports. Okay, not EXACTLY like the one at SFMM. IMO it looks simillar. Maybe I'm wrong? I kind of hope I am.

Rocket Rodder · December 22, 2005

Wow that looks fun! I... I might even try riding this..!

Nice can't wait to ride it. nice pics.

Okay first off, this isnt going to be the smallest B&M Hyper to be built, La Ronde's is going to be 175 feet tall. And Goliath at SFOG is standing a whopping 2 feet, a whole 24 inches, shorter than Raging Bull and it's first drop is only a foot shorter than La Ronde's Goliath. I'm sure that it will employ the "fence guard" over the areas where pedestrians will be standing/driving under the ride much like whats around SheiKra's break runs and around the turn before the holding break.

And another thing: This year at Coaster Con I rode Raging Bull about 40 times in two days due to ERT. On one of my rides, they trim on the camelback never touched the train AT ALL. Now it may suprise you or defy phisics, but I felt LESS airtime with the trim off then I did while it was on. I was sitting in row 8 during this ride, and for the next ride as well in the same seat and that time the trim hit us. So granted that the trim makes you feel like your getting less airtime, but its generating some pretty massive floaters on those types of hill.

BiCoastal Kid · December 28, 2005

So the first hill will have floater air, it is now proven.

CoasterCrazy · December 28, 2005

I can't wait until Goliath opens!

woah_killa · December 28, 2005

Is anybody else going to drive by and take pics?

SonOfBeastSucks · December 28, 2005

Wow, I have been ignoring construction of this until now, it looks amazing.

Shockwave · December 29, 2005

If my holiday to Florida was a week longer, I'd be driving up there to ride this!

CoasterCrazy · January 3, 2006

I went to the park this morning to take some updated pictures of the construction of Goliath. Since I haven't been to the park in about two weeks I was surprise to see that the third hill is almost done.
