Expedition Everest : main lift installed!!

[Lee]

I think lee on this board has some good info on EE, maybe he might know.

From what I saw, they looked like Intamin lap bars, kind of like on their hypers, but I couldn't say for sure.

Good looking out..now all we need is some different angles so we can see what the first drop is going to be like.

First drop is not much of a drop. It's maybe 6ft...just enough to get you around the curve and into the first switchtrack.

i recall someone a few months ago talking about vekomas new restriant system and that it will look exactly the same as this new vekoma coaster( even though its a kiddie coaster)

i know the trains will be set up differently but im sure this is what the restraints will look like without detailing

enjoy

WOW! Look Kids! It's the happy clown train! Watch out for the Yeti! He'll eat your blood you know!

 

[SFSC26]

i think the kids would be more freaked out by the clown than the furry, cuddly yeti

In addition to the ride, does anyone know what else is going to be in the mountain? This is such a big project, it is going to change the entire landscape so I can't think for one minuite it's just going to be for one ride. I know about the villiage, but I think it would be cool if there was some sort of trail in the mountain. You could have exhibits on animals that live in the dark, and even a couple of AA's and scenes and things.

Nothing. Just the ride.

Well, there's going to be a gigantic animatronic yeti which I can't wait to see! :sohappy:

I just hope it's not a rip off of the T Rex bit in Univeral. They have had a tendency to go back and forth at each other a wee bit.

Someone likened the yeti AA to the lava bug in Journey into the Center of the Earth at Tokyo Sea. I say a video of the ride and the AA is probably the most fluid AA I have ever seen. The bug was more fluid then the Mummy AA.

It will be a new generation type of a mid-torso restraint.
