Wild Woodie could be a fitting name provided it turns out to be a wild ride and not another watered down GCI.

If the drop under the pier and bunny hops on the bridge look the way they do and may be a good ride only time will tell

I'm sure it will be a zippy ride, but it's looking like a typical GCI design to me, so that will mean *some* good pops of air, but mostly a lot of floaty (at best) hills and sweeping curves with little punch. I just wish GCI would make their hills more aggressive like TGG's and not blend them into the overly-banked turns so much. I'd love to see TGG reprofile that layout.

Boooo I loved the Go-Karts on Hunt's Pier. They were the best.

I think this coaster looks amazing so far. It seems like it will be pretty aggressive too.
thanks Tom for getting all of these pictures up.

We had some problems at first with it being at 640 and still causing scroll bars in the forum windows, so I made the pictures scale a little smaller. I'll take a look at it and see if that's still the case.

The layout looks promising, but they should make the profile a little more aggressive to give it punch. Perfect example is the first drop. As is, it will hardly have any kick to it (just like all GCI first drops), but if they tighten it up like Cornball Express' first drop, it could be one of the most exciting first drops ever for backseat riders. That's the difference between the aggressive style of The Gravity Group and the zippy, fluid style of Great Coasters International. Why make a new woodie unless it's going to be vastly better over the current one (and I happen to love Great White by the way)?

Looks like they finally got the Pizza Guy on board with the project

If this thing turns out as great as it could be, I may get a season pass.

PcMan · « **Reply #10 on:** February 13, 2009, 02:05:55 PM »

Yes
the location on the beach between the two piers is owned by SAMS Pizza.
All store owners on the boardwalk own part of the beach in front of their store (as I'm told).
this is the location of the Bridge

the 4th picture from the bottom on the right you can see Sams pizza.

If they name this coaster WildWoodie it better be WILD

Will or Jack Morey mentioned (during Coasten by Ocean ) they had to get permission to use that part of the beach from Sams pizza,he said businesses own whats in front of them.I don't know how far onto the beach ? I also never knew this before he mentioned it.

I haven't played flippers in years and will make it a point to next time in Wildwood to do just that play

"Robb, I pack pure awesomeness"

AV Matt · « **Reply #20 on:** February 14, 2009, 06:09:05 PM »

^...in a Girly Coasters International sort of way.

AV Matt · « **Reply #21 on:** February 15, 2009, 01:34:56 PM »

I'm slowly working on a NoLimits recreation of this ride and I just noticed something.... The renderings do not match the model. It seems the layout has changed a bit from those original renderings. Some of the turns are reversed and the alignment of the first drop with the pier and the bridge are different. Just an FYI in case anyone cares.

Now I don't know how to go about the underground portions since I can't trust the renderings anymore. I'm anxious for more details to be released. Considering the drop only goes 15 feet below the surface of the pier (based on the original stats which could be void now too), there isn't really any room for bunny hops down there, ala Hades like I hoped, but I hope they work some in. This ride has so much potential!
