progress of construction; final brake tracks, station track, pre lift track, lift hill, drop, speed hill, hi 5 and double down all completed, and as can be seen, the animation wasn't totally accurate to the ride. (picture credit: Our Mountain)

I can't wait to ride this during my America visit in Summer. People are saying this ride could even top X2 and Tatsu and become the best ride at Six Flags Magic Mountain.
I'll review it here after my visit .

RMC have worked very well on this and Wicked Cyclone. They both look like awesome hybrids and it is likely both will open on time. In fact, Wicked Cyclone was filmed doing its first test run yesterday morning.
Looks like it will be a great ride

A test of a full circuit has been captured by CaliforniaCoasterKings, looks like it's absolutely flying around some parts of the course!

More duelling footage from California Coaster Freaks, this time with riders. The trains don't appear to shift as much in this one:

Here's a video from TPR featuring both on and off ride footage. The pacing and dueling on this look absolutely amazing.

RMC really have pulled off two great coasters this year! From seeing the POV of Wicked Cyclone they seem to have created two airtime monsters!
