Energylandia 2018 - Hyperion Intamin Hyper

WOW! Beyond our imagination!

[Paradox]

Track's on site

Excellent!

Ah so they didn't go with the box spine like in the animations.

I wonder if the 4 across trains they modeled for the NL animation were heavily modified Infinity trains and that was the infinity track in the renderings. Awesome shade of dark blue!

Look at how beefy thay track is!

[Paradox]

Hahaha yes!

[Coasterkidmwm]

That track looks odd. It's like they took the track on Venus and turned the thingies connecting the rails to the spine perpendicular

[Paradox]

Looks kinda flimsy

[Paradox]

More track and supports on site

[Coasterkidmwm]

That track is bizarre. It's like the crossties are mounted directly to the spine instead of in the air a bit.

[Paradox]

And it's vertical!

Progress of Construction over the past month:

That pullout is huge! Though yeah it'll be close to 300 feet tall, so naturally it'll be huge, but it's pretty cool to see how large it really is without the rest of the structure making it appear "smaller".

[Coasterkidmwm]

I agree the scale is definitely lost with this one for now.

While looking at that drop's bottom I tend to think that it's great to see (Giga) Disk'O come!

[herman116]

That would be a huge bummer if it's a huge Disk'O or a rocking tug.

[mkingy]

Giga Disk-O? "Is it a coaster though?"

Pretty sweet!

Much bigger supports starting to go in for Hyperion.

Hey look actual progress

[Coasterkidmwm]

This is for that diveloop-ishj turnaround right? God it still looks so massive.

Based on the shape of the support structure and the tunnel it is entering, I believe that is the pullout for the first drop.

[Paradox]

Yeah that's for the first drop.
