Hey, if it worked for LNM it'll work for this one. ?
I hope it's not a different color like when someone replaces a car door without painting it!
Do you think that this may slow down/delay the construction? I am planning to be there mid June, hope it's open by then.
I feel like the missing support thing happens on occasion from various manufacturers - could it be one of those things where it gets installed like that as a safety net for the manufacturer?
Thinking that even with a given company's experience and engineering to ensure a proper ride experience, they added connections for more supports in case more need to be added or they need to switch the force load to another point of the structure?

That support was built and installed before the track went in, so they must have taken it down. It is a reality of construction that not all pieces are perfect or work perfectly, but they still have engineering and manufacturing capability to correct the part.

It could have been something as simple as a bolt hole not lining up perfectly. It’s more than likely not some drastically horrible miscalculation.
Remember when Tempesto had part of the non-inverting loop removed and then put back in place? It's normal
It's almost like they invented a new element. That seems less an outward bank airtime and more of a reverse wall stall.
I dub thee an outward banked wall stall airtime hill.

Keep in mind everyone, Griffon had to have the track at the bottom of the drop replaced because it was just a tad off. The ride still opened in May (soft opened on the 18th I believe).
Just saw the the outer banked turn in person for the first time. It made my jaw drop. Stunning!
Frm the plans, it looks like it completely bypasses the station. It starts on the higher ground then. Maybe I'm wrong again
From March last year this shows what you're looking for. Scroll down to "Area".
It's amazing how every new element they install I look at it and go that's got to be the best element. But seriously this outward banked turn looks incredible. ?
I can't wait to see the zero G stall
