More track then Ka?! Wtf are we looking at here?
Probably "more track experienced" and not physical track. It certainly should not have more than 3,118ft of physical track unless something's wildly changed.
The ride will be "Bigger than Kingda Ka, take that how you will." Interesting to think of what that could mean for the track!
This wasn't so much a tour as it was an allowance to walk between certain boundaries (provided one stayed away from the very deep holes).
A teaser animation for the ride has allegedly been made and completed, but some parts will be redone; they want to make sure it's as perfect as can be for an attraction of this magnitude before releasing it.
Q&A coming soon, but for now, a few tour tidbits...
The presumed station area.
I should have zoomed more, but this is a decent angle of the cages.
Certain rebar is starting to get marked.
The beginning of the footer split .
The worksite extends quite a bit farther back beyond the tour area.

I wonder someone will leak the teaser animation video to see what it look like

Uh…. Someone on Rollercoasters Reddit said that it’ll be…. goose themed? With Wawa? https://www.reddit.com/r/rollercoasters/s/CyVaW8xgpt

Some great information there. I love that they are prioritizing the theme and making sure they have that nailed down!
What does a goose have to do with a spinning coaster that could potentially be the world's tallest rollercoaster?
One more worthwhile photo: some square shaped interlopers among all the circular rebar!
The key is to eat three large Wawa Mac and cheeses before entering the park, and ejecting it at the top of the tower
I'm down with the Great American Hoagie Machine
I thought that was pretty clear when they publicly delayed the project..? By all accounts, it seems like they COULD have (and were planning to) open this in 2026, but it wouldn’t have been ready for the start of the season. By pushing it to 2027, they’ll get it for the entire season.
I think “not in a rush” also implies that they know they need to be very deliberate with this park, and they’re okay eating a few poor attendance seasons to get it back on track
Understandable it’s an obvious thing with the delay
But to outright say we’re in no rush seems kinda crazy. The parks attendance has been really bad and they removed more rides than they’ve added in the last 10 years
Random but I totally see the Wawa, the park experimented with McDonald's back in the day. Goose theme makes me real skeptical about the ride or atleast the theme.
It’s super interesting, honestly. Leaves a lot to the imagination. I think it would be cool if there was a water feature along the length of the ride so it’s as if the goose is migrating along the coast of NJ, or something like that
