I thought you lived in Australia?

That's a long way to go to ride coasters.

Haha thank you!!!
Yes I do live in Australia.
Even worse than that, Sydney.

Sometimes trips to parks like CW seem absolutely hopeless, but one day I will ride Leviathan :D

I actually have relatives in New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia, therefore is why Ive been to SFGA, Hershey, Dorney, Kings Dominion, SFA quite a few times every time I visit on holidays.
I always make the extra dedicated trips out to parks I really want to go to ..... CW being a perfect example!!!!!

edit: and reddude, wouldnt lines always be long no matter what during the summer?
For example, Millennium Force will always have a long line, even though the hype about it opening surely has faded since 2000. Same thing goes for Kingda Ka, its always busy - in summer that is.
Wouldnt Leviathan be the same?
I thought CW gets more people than CP anways.....

Lmao that guy doesn't know his facts Leviathan will be in the top 10 fastest and tallest not top 5 :lol:

Its amazing that they used 4 cranes to put up those 4 track sections to complete the lift hill. Each one was needed to support a piece in the air till it was done, and the track had to be at the prefect angle before being lifted up. Pretty impressive engineering.

^ Yeah the GP gets facts wrong all the time - but its not that far off.
It will be the 10th fastest roller coaster in the world, but the 7th tallest.
according to rcdb that is
 
Re: Leviathan - B&M giga coaster for Canada's Wonderland

I just meant to make a broad generalization regarding the fact that adding a new coaster to a park should always aid somewhat in lowering the queues for each of the other coasters. There was new growth at CW just last year which means that is inevitable but I just meant to speak generally.

Also, I swore I heard a sound effect from RCT in that video...multiple times :p

The facts were a bit off, but I would not exactly go as far to say GP. He is actually one of the administrators of CWMania.

What sound effect are you referring to? They used some of the animated videos the park earlier released and used the sound effects too.

^Which concerns me...ah well, I'll give him a break...
 
Re: Leviathan - B&M giga coaster for Canada's Wonderland

Yeah I actually posted before I watched the video.
He's probably just hyping up the ride or something.
Maybe he meant non-launched roller coasters, because if you discredit that, then its the 3rd fastest roller coaster in the world with a traditional drop.
 
Re: Leviathan - B&M giga coaster for Canada's Wonderland

Also we need to keep in mind that his comment may very well have been taken out of context...
 
Re: Leviathan - B&M giga coaster for Canada's Wonderland

Also we need to keep in mind that who even cares. I doubt many GP noticed, and if they did, it's not like it's going to make them want to ride less.
 
Re: Leviathan - B&M giga coaster for Canada's Wonderland

The over bank turn (or barrel roll as CW calls it) is up, alone with some more supports
