Project 2022: Pantheon

That bendy spike tho

 

[BGWnut]

It's just like Mach Tower it is designed to sway slightly in the wind. I can't remember correctly but I think Mach Tower can sway like 10 feet from side to side at the top.

I've noticed that slight backwards bend on the top section from in the park, doesn't move with the wind. I think they must have just had that piece resting some way on the ground and it bent a bit. Obviously won't affect the ride, though.

Maybe it's intentional to influence a fall to behind the track- as opposed to toward the track- should some unforeseen stress/vibration occur.

 

[FoozMuz]

That could be it. I'm in the park now and once you see the bend, you cant unsee it lol.

Same thing here. I noticed the bend the week the spike went up and everytime I look at it, it's all I see now. ?

Sometime in the next few days I'll try to remember to post the direct sideview shot of it I took with my DSLR—it's super obvious from the right angles (heh, angle pun...)

 

[Jahrules]

That's acute one...

The leaning tower of pantheon - all part of the master plan.

A few from Verbolten and Mach Tower with the parks permission. Lower quality because of compression via GoPro app. When I get home I’m going to take photos off.

“Newish” angle from Da Vinci.

I want to see Panny (nickname coined) (TM) get some foliage and shrubbery.

 

[BGWnut]

I'm so excited to see all the work that they do in the next two weeks. I'm betting the top hat and a lot of the drop will be finished by the time CT opens.

 

[Jahrules]

I'm betting a bit more than that even. I wouldnt be surprised to see the subsequent airtime hill up by the 15th...

 

[BGWnut]

You might be right. I'm trying to not be too optimistic so that I'm not disappointed that they aren't too a certain point. If I'm being honest you're guess is probably closer because I'd bet the top hat is done by Wednesday

 

[Lcucu3]

I can't unsee that spike now haha

 

[cb0355]

Was there a layout for the shrubbery and any landscape features?

 

[Dylon]

A few of my favorite photos from today. I can’t wait until the top hat and drop are finished!

 

[basseyfish]

Is the tophat prob only half way to its max height right now?

 

[Crunchewy]

The vertical spike looks awesome. And also like it's not supported enough and is going fall over.

 

[BGWnut]

Is the tophat prob only half way to its max height right now?

Yeah it's probably only about halfway to it's full height
