larrygator Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 ^ I recognized it from riding Nitro so much and now that I have my UK airfare booked and I don't want to leave my house in the snow I have time to waste tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benji Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 what is NITRO doing in this GOLIATH video ???? http://www.laronde.com/fr/virtuel/PopUp.asp?Id=6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterviper Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 ^ I seriously hate it when the media does that!! I know they are trying to show an example of what it might look like but I just dont like it when it is done like this. I would rather them put in the computer animation of Goliath that's already out instead of a different coaster altogether!! But I also realize this is for the GP. So what do they know? But for us coaster fanatics (or me) it's just very annoying!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactus Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 New pics on LR's website!! Well, I think that Goliath will be awesome! want to see more? http://www.laronde.com/en/virtuel/album.asp?album=7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_type_of_person Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Ugh, this coaster still doesn't interest me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 The Superman colors can be quite stigmatising given all the other Superman rides in the Six Flags chain, but take that aside and I think it'll be a really good ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactus Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 La Ronde's as already post new pictures of Goliath construction. Check it out http://laronde.com/en/virtuel/album.asp?album=7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimace Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 I'm really looking forward to this ride. I think it's either going to be a hit or miss, but I really love B&M hypers and this layout looks great (as long as the POV video isn't accurate in terms of speed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactus Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 From what I see, with all the footers being ready, my guess is that they will assemble Goliath very fast. And looking at the sharp apex of the first hill (after lift), we will probably get some airtime. all the footers are ready Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I'm actually really looking forward to riding this and seeing the rest of La Ronde this year. Not too shabby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trustkill22 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I can see a bit of airtime but for some reason in that last picture there it doesn't look as big as what I thought it was but maybe its just the way the pic is taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockwave Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Good to see they're still building despite the snow. A few flakes over here and the Brits panic. Canada still keeps going in a few feet of the stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitman16 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Gosh this thing seems to be going pretty fast. Although, the circut doesn't seem like its much of a challenge to put up, they're still working hard. It looks like a decent ride, though I'll probably never get up to ride it...
