_koppen Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Hey there! Medusa's re-construction is going FAST! As usual, the pics are from Milton Garduño (http://www.montanarusa.com/forum) The angle on that looks amazing! Booth at the entrance of the roll, and down the hill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jynx242 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Wow - I definitely think Spring Break 2015 will be a great re-entry into taking TPR trips. I haven't been on one in the last couple of years and words cannot describe how much I miss them! D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidcoaster 2 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 ^^ That photo looks amazing! Really looking forward to the next TPR trip south of the border! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoCC Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Not a lot of changes as of now, but they have finished the drop. As usual, picture taken from Milton Garduño. It seems its going to be AWESOME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArizonaGuy Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Nice, it's looking good. I'd love to do a TPR trip in 2015 to Mexico! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 The first drop looks steeper than I thought! And that's a good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFChris Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Sooo glad I can continue to avoid Texas but not RMC That drop looks unlike anything else out there...at all! Very cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwaziBSRider1 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I'm speechless from that drop. That's going to be one damn amazing ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster1227 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 As if there was any debate, the things Rocky Mountain Construction has already managed to do Medusa (along with Texas Giant, Iron Rattler and Outlaw Run before it) is proof of just how cutting edge this company is turning out to be when it comes to designing coasters!

Jon Sabo Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 They are wasting no time to get this ride finished. Looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 I'm still not a fan of the orange track. Why not green or purple or yellow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArizonaGuy Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 ^^ They had left over orange paint from iRat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boardwalkbullet91507 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Oh yellow would look awesome. But in the end, it's really not the color that matters. This is looking amazing! That first drop looks incredible. I may just have to go to Mexico some day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoCC Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Hey there! So, SFM decided to give tours through Medusa Steel Coaster when no one's working in it, and this tour is 100% free. The pics are provided by Milton Garduño and Jesus Arevalo (http://www.facebook.com/montanarusa and http://www.facebook.com/pages/El-mundo-de-las-monta%C3%B1as-rusas) It's 30 meters high, but the drop is actually 36 meters. That first drop looks sexy as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 It's looking better and better, with every posting! Thank you for sharing a part of the tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randomman295 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Wow, this thing looks amazing so far. Can't wait to see what that first drop is going to be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidcoaster 2 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Do you sign up at the park for the tour? That's pretty sweet they are offering it. Nice photos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattnz Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Am loving the look of that first drop. RMC seem to be able to come up with never-before-seen elements on all of their coasters. Creative minds at work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Looks fantastic! Now I need a visa to Mexico! ^ I don't think Medusa has any new elements though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrlittle Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Awesome update. That first drop looks really great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravity55 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Looks fantastic! Now I need a visa to Mexico! ^ I don't think Medusa has any new elements though... I've never seen anything like the 153 on Outlaw Run. I've heard of a wave turn before, but never seen it on a coaster before Outlaw Run. Those are just two elements though. I think that the way that they're easily implementing these elements on their coasters with 100% confidence is what's most impressive. I look at the way they're putting some of these elements on these coasters (especially the re-mods) and can't help but think, how the hell is that possible?

WFChris Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 ^Yeah, I would consider that first drop to be a new element, unless somebody can cite a coaster that does...whatever exactly it's doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
