I think you're probably right. I suspect this is just going to be a minor confirmation type announcement. They presumably won't want to take the thunder away from Tigris just yet.

That's true. Bare in mind though they announced both at the same time at first so...

^I'm not sure, SeaWorld San Diego have announced Mako for 2020 and Tidal Twister for 2019 hasn't even gone vertical yet.

A no announcement would still make me happier than I was for West Coast Racers live react...

Hoping for: name/stats/virtual pov/graphics
Expecting: "RMC are making us a hybrid, stay tuned for more information"

Keeping expectations low is the key to being easily pleased!

Man, I think the clock is slow...

is there a live stream anywhere?

-North America's tallest hybrid
-World's steepest hybrid
-World's fastest hybrid
-Over 200ft tall

That's all they've announced for today.

 

[CrashCoaster]

So it was exactly what @SilverArrow and likely the rest of us were expecting. What a waste of half an hour of my life. Although I can't really complain too much.

So it won't be taller than Zadra then.

Yeah it will @CrashCoaster - remember the leaked statistics? 212 feet tall, 91 degree drop? Those look to hold up in the official pictures and video. That rumor also said that the two lift hills of Gwazi would be reused as regular hills, which is also true - one side's is used for the crazy diving heartline roll and the other is likely used for a huge overbanked turn! This is going to be beyond insane!!

Just a sneak peak.

 

[CrashCoaster]

But the announcement stated North America's tallest hybrid, but world records for the rest of them. Zadra's stated stats are wrong.

 

[MakoMania]

Seems like Zadra will be taller, but not steeper or faster.

The 2 elements we've seen so far look really good! I can't wait to see the rest of the layout. Shame it's not duelling anymore or taking the length record from SV, but should be a fantastic ride nonetheless.

Looks like I might have to plan a 2020 trip.
