Actually it's the Germans

I was talking about Europe[;)]

Europe is very big.....

Ow well us brits have..... erm..... wow, we lack alot of good rides. The only one i can name is Nemesis that you'll possibly be jealous of.

Yeah... What good things have the british got?
They don't have many good coasters (only one, and that was an accident )
They have a spoiled language (everybody understands english so you can't talk about anyone close)
They even spoil their beer by making it warm!!!
Bastards![lol]

They have fish and chips.

....Canada has fish and chips, ever been to a Joey's Only?

No.

Well, I went to the park earlier today and got quite a few pics. Unfortunately, I won't be able to upload them until Tuesday as I forgot to bring my camera's USB cable with me.

I noticed a few footers around the turnaround area, and footers leading from the small hill under the first drop all the way back up the hill... though I have no idea if they have been poured within the last couple of days or not.

The bridge over Peninsula Drive is going to be AWESOME to look at. Peninsula Drive has a curvy downhill section right before the coaster, so if you're driving towards the lake the bridge over the road will just appear right in front of you as you turn around a bend.

The bridge would impress me by itself!

Just got back recently, and have uploaded pics from Saturday and today. More supports have been put up after the bunny hill within the last day or so.

Thanks bro ...

Thanks for the pictures Intaminfan!

Cool pics!

I cant wait to see it when i go to waldameer during labor day weekend. Ive been goin to that park ever since i was a little kid, so its cool to see waldameer get some new rides. Hopefully this coaster will give waldameer a boost in popularity.

They don't have any signs forbidding anyone to walk into the construction area (except for the hillside the coaster is on), and since there wasn't anyone working there the first time I went I was able to just walk up to the coaster. Yesterday though, a few workers were there and they told us leave, so I was only able to get a few pics.

Wow... look at that suspended supporting on the 2nd pic of his 8-21 photos. It looks like thats the final way that track will be supported. Incredible.

Im going to waldameer this sunday hopefully i can get more pics of the construction.

Some "new" pictures of the construction;
