Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot that the laws of physics are different for humans than they are for water dummies, just because they float doesn't mean that we will. My mistake.

You can really see the airtime if you look at how the water dummies move. You can clearly see that the first speed hill provides plenty of high quality air until it reaches the turn when the forces change direction - I reckon that there'll still be some OK air towards the end of it too. And...

It'll be packed - and worse, packed with people who want to ride coasters. Literally everyone will be in a queue for something, so queue times will be phenomenal. Bad times! I'll be heading there on the tuesday before the easter holidays, I reckon that's the best bet. Based on nothing except...

They are doing an absolutely amazing job on the theming. Some of the best I've seen in a very long time.

^^ HOLY CRAP! That's the lift hill of Diablo on the left, isn't it! I can't believe that Shambhala is THAT high. There's tall, and then theres, well, ... wow...

I quite like the idea of that speed hill between the helix and big hill now that I see it. It's gonna speed over there and give a decent chunk of air time I reckon. I hope.

Can't wait to see the ampersand from the other angle. It's like some kind of crazy element which someone would have made up in No Limits - a kind of inclined loop in the air with turns on either end. <3

Yep, I think it opens in May unfortunately. I'm planning a trip out there this year, not sure if I should make it June so that I catch it when it's fresh out the box, or leave it till October when the park is empty... I went in October a couple of years ago and got Khan to myself 8 times in a...

Wow. That helix is really quite something.

Umm, is it just me or have they photoshopped out the trim on the picture of raptor at the top left? </offtopic>

Doing the happy dance!

Didn't say I was. Just seemed like a lot of GCSE physics to me. More than happy to be proven wrong :)

Sigh... It's such a shame when construction topics reach that point where everyone all-of-a-sudden becomes an expert in mechanics, dynamics and statics. To all the people arguing about other members' understanding of physics: please let us know exactly what your level of education in these...

Now that's what I'm talking about! It's a bit of a squiffy angle, but it's look like it's at the 75º-80º mark and super parabolic. :--D :shock: YAY!

I'm still picking my jaw up from the floor.

WOW! I can't believe how big this is going to look. I remember seeing DK in real life and thinking it was insanely huge. This will be unbelievably tall! Booked my plane tickets already for a trip out there in the summer. That dive loop is pretty damn tall, and seeing that the helix will be...

Good call. Having said that though, I'm liking the amount of effort which has gone in to the theming which is there. I personally can't wait until this beast opens.

How are they even allowed to report fake news like that?!

One of the funniest posts I've read in a long time. Congratulations sir!

To everyone saying it's too short - it's longer than Nemesis! Is Nemesis too short for you and a crap ride because of it? I think not. (Here come the flames) I'm not comparing the two rides, I know they're two completely different beasts, all I am trying to point out is that a short length...
