Cedar Point 2016- Valravn

That Zero-G-Roll with the lead-out that looks like the end of an inline twist!

Zero-G Roll is complete and so is most of that turn.

Looks like most of the air hill supports are in place as well. I doubt it'll take them longer than two weeks to get the track finished.

They'll probabily get trackwork done this week to be honest im my opinion.

[Coasterkidmwm]

I'm wondering if they'll blow a few days on electrical work or whatever else like when it was almost 60 degrees.

I wonder what the bonus airtime will be like.

From Tony Clark.

Not completely Valravn related, but it looks like Raptor's trains are also getting repainted.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Ah they're not trying to pretend the trains are pink this time around!

I feel trackwork can be done today or tomorrow. Are they going to put a roof on the storage sheds? They should be able to load trains since they're at the park......At least one i think.

Yes, just like every B&M

They made a good amount of progress today, finishing the bunny hop despite the rainy conditions. We could potentially have a full circuit coaster by tomorrow.

But see Gatekeeper and Rougarou dont have roofs on there storage sheds. I think Raptor might have a roof not sure......

Oh, I don't even remember making that post. I was drinking when I made it.

It's ~7:30AM central time at the time of this post and it wouldn't surprise me if they finish the track today:

At this time 1 more track piece until the layout is done

Valravn is officially a full-circuit coaster!

Murica.

I specially love how that Zero-G-Roll ends! Kind of an elongated "Flat Spin for an Invert" feeling!

Looks like it's gonna be a great coaster!

[TTD03]

Look at this.... Wonder what it will be? I'm calling some sort of photo-op thing during the line with in park photographers...

SANDUSKY, Ohio -- Cedar Point has another surprise up its sleeve.

We already know all of Valravn???s record-breaking dive coaster stats, but the new scream machine has a secret that has not yet been revealed.

???We???re working on something very special for the queue line that???s never been done at Cedar Point before,??? park spokesperson Tony Clark tells WKYC exclusively. ???It will make your wait for Valravn a little more entertaining.???

That???s all we get.

???If I told you what it was right now, I???d be applying for a new job,??? Clark adds.

Hmmmmm.

Clearly this is something more than just adding a batch of FunTV trivia / entertainment screens, which are heavily featured throughout the park already.

Could this Valravn secret mean interactive thematic elements in the line? Could it mean special sound effects and lighting?

We can only speculate for now.

The final piece of Valravn's track was installed Wednesday, completing the entire ride's cycle.

Valravn swoops to life with its first rides of the season when the park opens Saturday, May 7.
