Wow those are really great pictures, you can see the whole scope! And it is really tall looking!

[coasterfreak101Gimme Some Candy!]

I was under the impression looking at these pictures that they were just painting the upper part of the tower green so that it gave the appearance of just track rising into the air or something? Leave the rest of the supports blue, and just have those green spikes sticking up. As far as the GP's concerned, it'll look like there aren't even any supports, just big track in the air.

I stand corrected,the towers were indeed blue.

[acq10uazHave I mentioned how awesome donkeys are?]

The annual Nor'Easter ACE event is going on at the park right now. SFNE and TGE already had their presentation.

Some notes:
-Flash pass is coming to Hurricane Harbor
-Big Ben's is now JB's Smokehouse BBQ, now indoors with air conditioning, wait staff, and flat screen tvs
-Johnny Rockets in Hurricane Harbor is now Cowabunga Burgers, Johnny Rockets in Rockville is Totally Kickin' Chicken
-Goliath will start being painted this week

You can read more about the day and see a bit of the construction tour here.

Will Goliath have flash pass?

[Rollercoaster RiderI own the website www.donkey.com]

What Color will it Be Repainted?

[DarkStitch626Over obsessive disney disorder]

I think I see why this was repainted the way it is. The Blue Supports are all at ONE level of peak. So they are all in line at the tops. Green going above said points it seems to match nicely. I think this looks wonderful. If its just a Primer coat it still looks good.

[MayTheGForceBeWithYouStar Wars is gay.]

What Color will it Be Repainted?

You didn't notice in the last several updates that parts of the ride were also going green?

[acq10uazHave I mentioned how awesome donkeys are?]

What Color will it Be Repainted?

I don't know why the picture is sideways, as in my Photobucket account it is the right orientation. You can see that at the bottom the colors are hyper blue and outrageous green, aka the same colors as it was at SFMM with the exception of the towers.

Will Goliath have flash pass?

Yeah, according to the blue prints, after walking through the entry portal you turn left, completely missing the first set of switchbacks, then you walk along the side of the second set of switchbacks (which are located in Shipwreck Falls' station) and then you merge before entering the station.
