Skyrush Almost Done

The latest update from Keystone Thrills as of February 10 (yesterday) shows that Skyrush, the new Intamin "winged" hypercoaster, is almost done (from Ccron10 at Keystone Thrills):

The lift hill has been topped off on January 30, 2012. At this point, they have cap the first two airtime hills, and add other track pieces, and then it's pretty much done! The station is starting to look nice too!

This is a pretty cool looking hypercoaster, and I like how they're using the space behind Comet (aka the creek up to the former Creekside Catering space). I can't wait to see how the trains look like!

Speaking of trains, they appeared on a Skyrush contest promo:









It looks like the restraints on these trains will be much like Blue Fire's restraints.

Can't wait for completion!
