So what's the update on track installation? Have any of the 3 gaps been completed yet? I haven't seen an update since Saturday.

[BrandonStrouphauer]

ALT got an exclusive picture of an unwrapped Skyrush seat last week. You can look a few pages ago it's there.

[BrandonStrouphauer]

The following pictures were taken March 4th 2012. NEWER ones, featuring MORE track can be found later in this same update.



If you look closley, the stake says "GTP Tower" GTP is "Get the Picture" Get the Picture is the company Hersheypark uses to take on rides pictures. Now we know where the on-ride picture will be snapped at! Right at the bottom of the 200' drop!
























Skyrush wheel!!






The following pictures taken March 6th, 2012....


















Some of the creek has been allowed to flow through. A little preview of what the whole creek will eventually look like.







SKYRUSH- Ride the Edge!

[HPCrazy]

GREAT update! You forgot to mention that it looks like they're building something across from Skyview - more than likely a new food stand.

[hersheycoaster14]

thanks for the update. cant wait to ride it.

[thom25]

The pics are Amazing - and now we know were the on-ride photos will be taken.

[leapthedips]

What's with the Capt Jack name on the Pirate in Pic 14? I don't remember that being there. Maybe I just never noticed before!

[BrandonStrouphauer]

That popped up late season in 2011. I know, it's weird!

[galindoverhere]

AMAZING UPDATE! Love the Pics

[Ccron10]

Good pics, just please get photos with a wider view of the construction site next time so that it's easier to tell where they are working on something.

[RCoaster]

Same here! I remember it being called the "Pirat" (yes, without the "e" ). A quick check over at Hersheypark's website still list it as "Pirate". It might be a temporary sign for Hersheypark's post-season events.

[HPCrazy]

It's name was changed to Pirate for the 2003 season> I recognized the sign too. Don't know what's up with it but I'm assuming it will be there come April 6th.

[kpmcman]

those seats look terrifying... there is almost nothing to them...especially those outside seats, its gonna be a unique and amazing expirience

[hersheycoaster14]

^I no right. I find one thing cool is that the new paths they are putting in will be so close to the ride. I don't No why I like that so much but it looks cool. Oh yea and will the waiting line for skyrush be almost right next to comets line? And is the waiting line for comet going to be moved cause of that footer siting there? I no this was probably already discussed but I never new so.

[chickenbowl]

Pleas learn how to type words like "know" and "knew."

Thanks!

[hersheycoaster14]

Please learn how to spell "please"

[BrandonStrouphauer]

Guys, get on focus.
No bickering, please. Thanks!

[Hershey bears]

Is this going to be a daily occurance two people start. "bickering" the Brandon has to end it???!!! Really, can't people get along and be mature.

[Hershey bears]

Sorry about spelling: the should be then
No"." after "start"

[chickenbowl]

Sorry for starting any trouble. I just believe that just because it's the internet, you should still conduct yourself to using proper spelling and grammar, even if you're a pre-teen. And that Dippy Slides person is just acting stupid just to get attention and that bugs me (Cyclone? Really?).

Again, sorry.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to recent construction pictures from today, because that's what this place is about, right?

[galindoverhere]

WHERE DID THE SKYRUSH STATION PICTURE GO!!! *Has a heart attack*

[hersheycoaster14]

I Apologize about my spelling and to chickenbowel. That was immature of me. 
 Anyways any recent news on skyrush.

[MerryDerryDips]

Quit being a bully! I am new here and you just want to make fun of me because you think you are better than everyone else.

[nriccio15]

Hey guys, sorry to step in...I know I don't really have a say, but we are here to discuss SKYRUSH and Hersheypark, why is there arguing? It makes no sense...I come here just looking for cool things about something I am interested in, there is NO reason why this has turned from something fun to look at to something I am annoyed to see because of people arguing. Time to stop this nonsense and get back to the coaster and the park, the reason we should all be here...

Exactly what I said, thanks.

Actually that isn't what you said, you actually started this. Quit being such a hypocrite!

If you read the rest of my post, you'd see that IS what I said. Just get off the internet...

PLEASE, can we get back on topic?!

[MerryDerryDips]

Oh big bad boy trying to be tough over the internet, quit being such a jerk.

[MerryDerryDips]

Oh and thank you for down-voting my post, it affected me in real life. The members on this site are just as bad as Theme Park Review! If not worse.

[hersheycoaster14]

Come on man. Dont mean to be a jerk but Let it go and get back on subject. This is a skyrush discussion thread. In other words lets talk about skyrush.
Thanks

[MerryDerryDips]

Fine

[nriccio15]

yay! we are back to skyrush!

[Hershey bears]

Yay! This should mean from now on the alerts I get at school will be about skyrush. Recently I have gotten an email about a new post get excited then I get home , check and all it would be is people arguing over something stupid. Thank you for getting back on topic. I look forward to seeing skyrush updates again!

[chickenbowl]

Personal attacks? Sure why not? I'm kinda done talking to people that don't know as much about their home park as I do.

So where's the pictures of the newly finished sections over Comet's station and before the Stengel?

[nriccio15]

i dont know about the stengel being down but the other pics can be found here:

[chickenbowl]

Those pictures are a week old. On Facebook, you g

[chickenbowl]

*guys said there was an update from yesterday?

[nriccio15]

oh, i didn't know, sorry.

[thom25]

If you haven't seen this video of the Topping Off of Skyrush - this is well worth your time. A truly amazing video showing off the work of the Iron Workers as they build Hershey's new amazing ride.

[Ccron10]

^ I wonder where that guy was standing because it looked it was near where Walt and I were at. Wouldn't shock me if it was him though.

But anyways, I'll be back over getting bi-daily updates on Monday. Should be interesting to see what's happened over a week's time.

[BrandonStrouphauer]

Did you notice anyone with a camera that day? (I just realized that was a stupid question... LOL) I mean anyone with a video camera.

[rushrunner]

is there going to be an update soon?

[thom25]

Yes, Brandon is at the park right now

[galindoverhere]

HURRAY! It's almost done according to some other updates I've seen as well <3

[chickenbowl]

Yeah, there's just a little bit more footer construction at the far end, and once those set, we'll see everything installed!

I'm mostly excited to see the creek finally run back through and to see new landscaping get in. It's looking less and less like a construction site every time I see it.
