I think most of you that look this ride down only have reasoning from your comparisons to Maverick and other 'small Intamins'... Just stay a little open-minded.. lol, this will probably be really awesome. It's really long too, which is what I'm excited for. And newsflash #2 about those 'mildly' banked turns, that's pretty much just the second half of the ride. It still will have plenty of air and I believe the first half will have more than enough of that pure roller coaster power that Intamin does a good job of; and they know they do a good job. Don't worry, they won't let down.

Ok cuz I'm planning on going in 2 weeks and I doubt it'll be opened that quickly so I'm guessing I should wait til next year.

Yea I go home for break in 2 weeks and we're going to FLA so we're gonna hit up HollywoodRRR at Universal since we have yet to do that, and if CH is open BGA. If it's not, does anyone have suggestions as to what other parks in that area are good outside of Disney parks?

Yes, go to Seaworld. You need to ride Manta and Kraken! Journey to Atlantis would also be unique.
Oh, were you expecting something here?

Ahh Sea World...I love it lol. We were there last year and I LOVE Manta and Kraken. Esp. Manta...in my top 10. I shoulda mentioned that I was just there haha...I was thinking Old Town for like a small trip? Cuz I've been on all the others at major parks around there.

All I can say to that is <img src=images/icon_speech_wow.gif border=0 width=23 height=15 alt=Insert Speech Icon: Wow!>[^]


so deceiving, it makes it look like a 120 degree banked turn when its the least banked turn of that style I've ever seen

Montu is closed for maintenance from 2/3 - 2/26. I'm going on 2/23.

Is there even a SLIGHT chance of the crews finishing their stuff early and getting it done by 2/23?
