Maxx Force NEW FOR 2019

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
Postby SaveTheWAVE on June 26th, 2019, 12:36 pm
The Amusement Insiders video was great! The full speed launch is insane!! I'm going to time it later.
I wonder if people will be so stunned by the launch that they will finally sober up 175' above the ground only to dive back down and into another the rest of the layout, which may be equally as intense as the launch.

People who signed up for the commercial, keep an eye on your email. Looks like they're sending out confirmations.

I sent them email yesterday. I was at work, so I wasn't in the "bright/light colored" short sleeved shirt they want. I hope that doesn't disqualify me! I haven't received anything back yet from them.

I’m at the water park today, but haven’t seen any test runs. I’ve seen guys up on cranes playing with the track bolts with a torque wrench, but nothing else. Maybe I’ll see some testing later. Disappointed.

So out of all of us on the forum, only one person got in this year? That’s weird... Hey Marcus Leshock, any chance you’re looking for extras in your media day shoot?

I don't think anyone posted on this yet, but I noticed today that the ride photos for Maxx Force are being taken at the top of the dog tongue. I would have thought they would have been taken as you're spiraling back to the station.

Also, that boom you hear as the ride starts *is* loud. I can't think of a louder sound in the park. I could hear it clearly in Hurricane Harbor, Southwest Territory, Hometown Square, and Carousel Plaza.
