[DougMJrJar-Jar Binks smells like Donkey]

^Thanks. Actually May or June is perfect. I'll give myself a "yay I graduated community college and am moving onto my 4 year school" present.

That is just beautiful. You have a great eye for taking spectacular pictures!

Thank you very much.

That is going to be one good thing about Leviathan for sure, because of its location right along the front of the part there are going to be plenty of amazing chances for photos. Aside from the station area everything will be more or less viable without even entering into the park.

That spine support on the first drop is definitely interesting. I don't remember seeing anything about it on the original renderings, so I wonder if they just omitted it or if it ended up being added later in the development. Regardless, it certainly makes it look interesting. Can't wait to see the lift and first drop finished - it should be one hell of a sight.

[matteocrepaldiI love donkeys more than me.]

Yes, that support got my whole attention too! I like ho B&M is innovating in those couple of years!
I wonder if the one in Port Aventura is going to use something similar!

I think that support is cool looking for sure. Is this B&M's steepest drop other than a DM? I would assume so.

If you look at the pull out, not sure if this is a normal B&M thing as well, but its also using an I-Beam like support until it gets up a little higher. I wonder if it has anything to do with the weight of the trains and the speed or something like that? Either way, they definitely look nice.

[B&MIntaminGCIHave I mentioned how awesome donkeys are?]

Seeing one of the prior updates, it still seems there's one long piece of track for the lift before the crest. In which case, the crest is going to be really tight. Could we be looking at B&M's version of ejector air monsters?

[Gerstlauer1A zonkey is a cross between a zebra and a donkey.]

^ I was thinking the same.
Maybe not ejector airtime, but just one hell of an awesome first drop!

I really like how the first drop looks like on this beast!

Ya, I was thinking that when looking at it in person yesterday. Already the backseat on Behemoth is insane for the first drop, I can only imagine how this will be falling 300 approx feet to the ground floating out of your chair.

It may not be the most inspired layout, but I still think the speed this ride will be going at will be enough of a reason to love it.

I will be going back next weekend and will grab some more shots. It looks like one more lift, 2, maybe 3, more pieces for the drop then the crest and we'll have ourselves a Giga!

Nope, if you look really closely on the renderings and on the POV video, you will see that spine support that you are talking about.
