They just rotated the camera to show the drop and loop a bit better.

God, I love how big the loop is! It doesn't really look like the drop has a heartline...I guess maybe it's because of the verticality?

Hooray for the second Euro-Fighter with a turning drop!

Two more EF Customs opening in the future, plus a Custom Spinner:

I guess Gerstlauer is becoming quite serious about its expansion!

Wow, the drop looks great, and it looks like there will be some nice hangtime in the loop. I'm assuming the drop is heartlined, it's just the angle of the picture. I can't see why they wouldn't heartline it.

Yeah, you can tell from other pictures it does have a heartline. Notice how the crest just mysteriously "disappears" into the roof! <3 <3 <3 <3

Also, keep in mind that the banking is so small/gradual that any heartline would be hard to 'see'.

I love it....

Only thing I would do to change is a little theming, but it's too early to tell if some will be put in.

Dayammmn! That's some sexy track, but the colors? And the Spongebob theme?

I love how they theme this to be quite a kiddy ride, but chances are good that Gerstlauer made it hella-intense. That's gonna be some scared munchkins up in the MoA. [lol]

Gerstlauers are known to get VERT rough VERY quickly into operation Jensen. Even Timberland Twister is a roaring bitch, so I expect they may have to retrack that with tri-pipe sometime in the next few years.

But this will be great, rough or not.

its ovious you havent seen a eurofighter grow old yet

speed is as smooth as the day it opened and they are very well made indeed so i cart see it getting rough at all.

sponge bob is a kinda cool theme as long as there is some good themeing to go with it. at least its diffrent

I guess these picture aren't really much different than any of the ones we've seen already, but I was at the mall today to check things out and I decided to take a few.

Nice pictures!

Do you know how they got the crane out of there?

I was wondering the same thing. I'm guessing it would have fit through the gap between the lift and the first support on the drop, there's actually a lot more open space there and under the rest of the ride than I would have thought from looking at pictures. I hope it's mostly open path space and not completely fenced off.
