^^^The lift hill will take an hour to climb. By the time the next train is going up the lift, the previous one will likely be very close to the break run.

Per my visit next year, I shall refuse to refer to this ride as it's proper name. I will call it "Behemoth 2: Electric Boogaloo" (thanks Cheese!) and nothing else.

Looks pretty marvelous. I would have rather seen this at Dorney Park, but I do enjoy how the turnaround over the entrance plaza will change the profile of the park and add for great guest interaction at the main gate. It's great to see B&M pushing 300 ft and this could be the dawn of a new breed of beemers. Aside from the extremely long brake run, this looks like a pretty spectacular ride and I believe 2012 will be the rebirth of B&M.

Come one. Come all. Ride the roller coaster in my pants.

This thing looks really good!! Just the fact that the high-speed low-to-the-ground turns were added in should add a good sense of dynamic pacing to the ride (something Behemoth lacks IMO with its hil-after-hill formula).

I'm happy to see B&M build themselves a nice Giga. Now when do you think Six Flags will start copying Cedar Fair? Crossing my fingers that Great Adventure is next in line for one (Although I know they really don't need it -__-). Can we trade Green Lantern away if it means GADV will get a Giga, even 2 years from now??

i just made this account to say that you guys are making 4 years sound like its 2 minutes ..
sure they added Behemoth four years ago but to be honest i got bored of it in year two and was hoping that 2011 would be a new coaster even if it was a Behemoth 2.0 ... :?r

Looks great.

Would love to go back here as I haven't been since 1988.

I was wondering when B&M was going to get into the giga game. The coaster looks cool. I've heard a few of my friends say that this should have been saved for a park that needs it, but when you think about it most of the CF parks have a mega/hyper coaster, except the two in cali. This will just give me annother reason to go to Canada's Wonderland. curious questions, and im not sure if they have been asked.... they used the "V" seating arrangement on behemoth right, so thats whith the older hyper seating arrangemnt? although that could change before the coaster opens, they could come up with something like "skyrush"s seats. (second question) Is B&M not going to try to come up with a cabel lift system? Are they going to stick with the really long chain?

I'm also amazed by this, not even Millennium cost that much! This ride is really going to have to haul A$$ to justify a price tag like that, I had a feeling a B&M giga would be pretty expensive because of how heavy it would be. Im starting to think that they should have just stuck with Intamin, saved the cash and avoid the whole Behemoth confusion.


Not that my opinion actually matters now, im just glad im not paying for it.
