Seems like its a result of staffing versus cost-cutting. Could have sworn there was an image on twitter of people working on the towers
It didn't appear to be being painted from what I saw, it looked more like electrical inspection work.Supposedly one of the Skyride towers was still being painted today, so I guess we'll see...
I mean... it is being moved to a scrapyard...Well, I guess Sand Serpent is not being moved...
It just seems a little odd to me that they're ripping it apart rather than disassembling it since it's all designed to be portable and easily taken apart.
I'm standing by some kind of inverted family coaster- whether that be B&M or Vekoma, I haven't the foggiest lol.So what are we realistically thinking for this space? Feels weird knowing nothing about this.
Yea I think whatever is coming will be Vekoma, I just hope whatever they put there will draw more attention to that area in the park to bring the crowds off Cobra and Cheetah HuntI'm standing by some kind of inverted family coaster- whether that be B&M or Vekoma, I haven't the foggiest lol.

I might have the wrong perspective but a family boomerang doesn't seem like a good fit due to the low capacity of those types of rides. A full circuit family coaster would be a better addition but I don't have a good understanding of how much room is available.
A family boomerang would have the same amount of capacity as Tigris and probably more than Sand Serpent, so they'll be fine.I might have the wrong perspective but a family boomerang doesn't seem like a good fit due to the low capacity of those types of rides.

Yes.Vekoma would be interesting. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the original Rhino Rally water section was the only time BGT worked with Vekoma. Like for like would be cool using the rest of the land. I just can't see this coaster staying confined to pantopia. Definitely taking a right over the service road into prime serengeti real estate Rhino rally has left over for an attraction.
BG definitely suffers from the layout of the park being a massive loop. Similar problem to Islands of Adventure but at least they’ve mitigated that a bit with the Velocicoaster path to skip basically a land and a half.The park needs something to actually bring people back there, instead of people just strolling in hours after they’ve waiting at least 30 mins+ for either Cobra, Cheetah, or IG because of 5 minute dispatches
