Wow! Staff are allowed to be such spammers! 3 messages that could surely just go into one post! [:D][lol]

Nice, it looks all like, topped off and stuff ..... and red ........ and stuff

Hopefully this will be a good ride. I reckon the B&M hypers (does this count as a hyper, i dont know what else to call it) look awesome, its just certain ones have given them a slightly bad name because they have been trimmed so much.

No it doesn't class as a Hyper

Its a hyper style ride...it just isn't 200 feet tall...

jpe, it's a "B&M Mega Coaster", for some reason

It's nice to see a coaster with good prospects being topped off.

I usually call LR Goliath style coasters as Mini Hypers.

It doesnt look as big as i thought it would look, but i guess im comparing it to stealth and the like...

Goliath isn't Canada's Tallest coaster, but it has the longest drop.[;)]

It is the tallest coaster when measuring from the ground directly below the track.

Cool rollercoaster! To bad it's so far away

Wow i was accually unaware that canada had any coasters. And i live with in walking distance of canada

Erm Mindbender is a really famous roller coaster and it is in Canada. Its one of Schwarzkopfs best coasters, and one really high in my list of coasters i wantto ride. It looks like Magnum Force which i really enjoyed but quite a bit more intense. [:)]

ah then looks like i have to take a trip. where in canada is it? anywhere neer the tippy top of maine (Edmunston)?

it's a shame they used a video of nitro. i guess people weren't meant to notice lol.

by the way Soul_Creepr the coaster is located in the largest mall in the world and its in Edmonton Alberta Canada and the theme park is Galaxyland Amusement Park

I wouldnt say "nearly finished". Its just the drop...

The first drop on Goliath at La Ronde is nearly finished being constructed!

[:P]

Looking good so far i reckon. I hope you get some airtime back seat on that thing, which im sure you will do. As long as they dont trim it right at the beginning [:O] Well you know six flags.......

No trim holes have been spotted on any track pieces.....yet [:D]
