What's new

Hersheypark |"Skyrush"| Intamin Mega

Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

those views of the park are really fantastic and from that angle skyrush is going to look really fabulous.
Im really loving the track too, the yellow and blue is going to look very cool. Perhaps like Diamondback, some of the lift hill will have yellow supports, and the rest be the light blue?
Either way, that was a good update of all that track!
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

Maybe the yellow is for the new box support thing fround on I305, or a possible pretty looking structure (thin MF, but not actually for support, just looks) for **** n giggles?

Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

Or, most likely, it's for the transfer track and such.
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

^ Yeah, maintenance shed or station stuff.
Just have to wait and see.
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

It could be I guess (most likely will be transfer track stuff)...never paid much attention to transfer track though, so I guessed that they might make a structure around the lift hill posts to make it look pretty...like MF, but just for looks instead of actual support.

Mabye. Did you mean MF as in Millenium Force? do you have a pic?

We should be expecting an update tomorrow. I hope so... :(
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

Yes, Millennium Force. I would later on, but that will be 9 hours from now or so.

Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

^ Not much to see though :(
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

I know... :( I like the exit area so far though. I wish I could see it from above...
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

Still not that much really going on. Although it looks like pretty much most of the track pieces have arrived. I think this could take longer than planned, I really hope they are ready by May as the construction site seems to have alot of work surrounding it. Ive never seen this much detail in construction sites, although I guess keystone have been giving regular updates. Still loving the yellow.
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

I also LOVE the yellow. I was freaking out when I saw all of that track. I am almost positive that 85% of track peices have arrived not including the lift hill. They don't have lift track yet... Sad Face. I hope it will be open when I go July 21, 2012. Any predictions of a new opening date?
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

Initially, the opening date was May. Im guessing that it could possibly be pushed back to june, because of all the flooding and constant setbacks in the construction site, what with the dam breaking etc. And now heading into winter is not usually a time when lots gets done, but when it slows done.
 
Re: "Skyrush" - Intamin Hyper - Hersheypark

I think they mentioned it would be open with a week or so of its original date. So long as they start supports and footers are done, then they can work during the winter.
