Sploosh and rise into the final brakes looks complete. Weeee.
Sweet... I'm predicting a final pop of air there, especially for the front of the train.
Why does the "next" button actually load the previous picture?

Not quite. That last piece connecting the rise from the splashdown isn't there yet, and won't be until the end according to Don Helbig. But they should be starting on the lift hill soon!
Work Continues on Kings Island's Newest Ride
A crane will drop the ride’s highest point into place next week, butthe gap coming out of the splashdown will be the last piece added.
“That's Piece 129 laying on the ground, and it'll be the last part of the ride that gets put together,” Helbig said.
Why are you still posting here if the forum sucks so much, Chuck?

No, it's just that the season is ending later than it used to. Plus, with the park open, you have to do some amount of foundation work prior to the park opening for the season because you can't tear up the midways. That's why some of those footers were there in May.

Nick is still a HOT property right now, I can't imagine anyone dropping a Nick license. As much as I loved the old MoA with Peanuts, have to admit the Nick licensing has done VERY well there - both from my limited personal viewpoint and apparently from ridership figures - it was busy as heck in the park even when the mall itself was quiet (save A&F, Hollister, etc., hehe).
You still have Zoidberg.... You ALL have Zoidberg! (V) (;,,;) (V)
I work Flight Deck at Kings Island. The music is all basically older stuff. Yellow Submarine, We are the Champions, all kinds of shtuff like that.
I also work Son of Beast and I was doing lock out gates the other night (security gates that surround the perimeter of the ride) and NO, Diamondback does NOT interfere with the SOB woods.
