No way lol. The stations are so far apart from each other and that would be a maintenance nightmare. I would think they would use the old half of the station as a queue area or something. Well find out soon enough.

most likely theyll do something like twisted timbers. i said this before, but with twisted timbers you still have like 4 or 5 switchbacks to go through before the loading gates.

Perhaps I'm going crazy, I remember them being side by side during loading...Obviously it would require two switch tracks so it might be more trouble than it's worth haha

its a single ride not dueling, idk how that would work. and dual loading stations wouldnt work because it doesnt have a mid course

Freddy do you know the full layout yet

If you've seen Gringotts or Mummy, that would be an example of a dual load...However, it may be overkill and I'm just rambling haha

But I do remember lines getting long at Gwazi (partially because it was dueling)

What if they decide to expand the Australian themed area? Maybe the Wild Wombat? The Tasmanian Twister?

I've been saying they should make the Bird Gardens into a full themed Australian area for years, especially since the removal of the Bird Gardens Theater. The coaster is rumored to be themed to a reptile. Saltwater Crocodiles are native to Australia.....works for me if that's what they go with. #Crocodylus 2020...lol

Then they could add some flats in the area after (while keeping the gardens feel...think BGW).

Crocodile sounds pretty cool in Swahili: Mamba

Anyway, there are a ton of mythical African creatures to choose from...One of note is Sobek, the crocodile god

Or they could always go with Osiris haha

They'll probably name it Twisted Crocodile though haha

As long as they don't call it Crocodile Hunt. RIP Cheetaka.

I'm kind of surprised they haven't begun installing the rails yet...

 

[P@n!K_Sw1tC#]

I’m having trouble making out what these elements are going to look like which is why I love this ride so much.

theyre waiting on the zadra guys to come over. track work for zadra litteraly finished this morning. and plus they want to get more of the structure in before they start putting in track

Yooooooooo

That's gotta be a 270 degree double-inverted corner stall.

as much as i would like that to happen over the station, i think its just going to be a wave turn

No, not over the station! To the left!

 

[6racksgone]

how would they even fit that?

From Reddit. If you look closely, the support structure/ledgers coming off the old lift hill (Lion?) to the left seem to bank outward, but that's too sharp to be a outer-banked turn. It's gotta be an inversion of some kind. It could be just a regular inversion, I guess, but a double-inverted corner stall would be amazing.

its too sharp of a curve to put that element in. they could very well put one over the station though where the 2 airtime hills used to be
