I don't think I've ever seen so many pictures of the same footers over and over again.

Have you seen the Canada's Wonderland thread or Hersheypark thread, or the Dollywood thread? Young enthusiasts love dirt and footers.

Not sure whether it's sad, or hilarious that someone took pictures of dirt from what looks Dragon Khan's drop. I'll go with a combination of both.

^Welcome to the world of coaster enthusiasts... I am one and am not ashamed. Is it bad, doctor ?

[UniverseHollywood]

From the looks of it PortAventura regulars are quite excited about the new coaster installation! I would be too!

^Does this mean that vertical construction has begun?

[andyuk200523]

If RCS are building it, we can expect it to be complete in the next few weeks RCS are awesome!

[oriolat]

RCS have already installed their camp and equipment to start vertical construction.

 

Different sources from trusted people working at the park have confirmed that track is, in fact, in the park. Pieces of track are turquoise blue. Up we go!

I do not speak Spanish but I tried to decipher what was written on the site all the pics come from, and in someone's comment, I THINK I have understood that they're going to paint Khan this week while they're at it with the cranes. Can anyone who is familiar with this language confirm ? (German / French / Dutch = ok but I can only say crude dirty things in Spanish lol)
