I am hoping they keep the coaster one color. Contingent they plant trees, with a coaster that one color it would look good in the foliage and a start contract to all the other bright coasters in the park.

Has anyone seen if any other names have been trademarked by Cedar Fair?

I tried finding the site but was unsuccessful. I was just wondering since we are close to an announcement, if another names may have been recently trademarked and Copperhead Strike may have been a decoy.

Nope. http://tess2.uspto.gov/ Copperhead Strike is literally the last name they trademarked.

I know pictures were already posted of the supports, but I thought I would share one I took today. By the end of the day a new crane was also on site and ready to start lifting, if it hasn't already.... They were gone by 4:30, my guess is they work 7-4 or so...

No, the footing that the ride connects generally has to be thicker than the ride platform around it. Plus the ride platform is normally made up of several concrete sections.

Hi everyone!

I would greatly appreciate being a plus one for anybody that gets an official invite. I thank you in advance for this opportunity and look forward to hearing from you.

I've heard some rumors that it will feature 2 launches, a jojo roll (mack is calling it a gator roll) and a drop track section similar to Verbolten in a themed out building. I'm not holding my breath on it tho. I'll wait until announcement day. lol
