I'm no geotechnical engineer, but building up on those cliffs (or even driving the big cranes up there) gives me the heebie jeebies.

Especially considering they're shaping the **** out of them at the top, surely it'll impact the rest of the area?!

I won't lie, I don't really get nervous or scared to ride coasters these days. But I have a strong feeling that this thing might just change that....and I love it

The first lift hill will be a LSM launch.

there are construction videos on tik tok on these two accounts: surraniking13 , Princemuneeb1k2 .
it's looks like the first lift hill will be lunched

 

[Projektion]

It's actually happening. We truly live in the darkest timeline.

The hell is that cheese grate track design? Or is the angle deceiving me?

I think you're seeing two running rails and two equipment mounting points - expertly annotated here:

The park president said in Saudi news outlets that the park is planned for a soft opening in October 2024

That's also really wide track. Could we potentially see winged seats? Or do we think it could just be a really wide train design?

Im gussing the lift hill will use LSMs like Maverick, more lift less launch. Might be cheaper or at least a more simple design then the worlds longest cable lift.

All renderings of the train were 2x2 seating, but I believe that the train in post is much closer to/is the actual design.

Not a brilliant idea to put the world's longest chain/cable lift in a desert

The lift hill is not the tallest part of the ride, and I don’t think it even hits 300ft, Fury will maintain that record.

I got the picture from snap maps there are workers that film the construction site.

the first lift hill looks like it reach between 200-150 feet.

That drop looks particularly shallow to me. It's potentially the angle, or is in fact shallow. Let's face it, we all don't really care about this part of the ride. It's that ****ing revolting drop from the cliff and that big ol' dirt airtime hill we wanna see.

If it’s shallow then it could mean going over it with some speed after the launch, so could be some good airtime.
