I'm still wondering what kind of surprises they could put on a drop tower?

I've gone pantless!

Ejector seats?

I've been wondering about that myself. I recall something about "lighting effects" being mentioned earlier.

It's about time they put something in near the Meltdown slide. That view got old really fast. But, why do they have to make Vanish Point face the same way as Meltdown? Before we know it, all the slides in the park will be in a straight line.

There's an umlaut in Ernst Mach's name? Hmm...

Anyway, I can't wait to see the ground phase ending and some vertical construction starting. :airtime:

I just want to throw this out there for you guys to bash and deny immediately.

Apparently at some of the park's orientations, the GM Carl Lum and the instructor conducting the orientations have said the new coaster will be 300ft tall and the 95ft height waver is wrong. People over at BGWdicks seem set on this being true.

Fluffy, Fluffy, Donkeys Filled With Medicine and Goo!
