Official Goliath Thread
Thanks to all the folks who have been posting pictures on this Goliath thread. Please keep posting more pics and videos!
Will there be a height max on Goliath?
turnaround is 125, lifthill will be 165 I believe

I think he meant a max height for the riders themselves.

Yeah, sorry, for the riders, i don't want this to be another x flight or déjà vu where i have to slouch to get by the ride ops
I don't believe Outlaw Run has a maximum height, so I would assume Goliath won't, but we should know for sure before it opens.
my bad, I was hanging pretty bad earlier. I don't think their will be, though if there is I'd guess it'd be 80" That's pretty standard when there is a max.

God I hope not, all this waiting and then finding out theres a max at 80", that would be brutal
I might be wrong, but aren't coasters with max height usually (always?) suspended or wing or that sort of thing? Do any coasters with traditional trails like Goliath has have max height limits?
Just got back from Branson and Outlaw Run was absolutely stunning. A tad painful in the very back because of how aggressive it is but still very smooth for a wooden coaster because of the topper track. I would rank it as my new favorite roller coaster. I'm very excited to ride Goliath when it opens in late May!

Yes. It's aggressive like Maverick on the tight turns but fortunately there's not OTSR's on these when it tosses you around. Lots of fun though!Founder of http://www.sfgamnation.com

The only coaster that has a max height in our park is V2. That is 80". I don't think Goliath will have a max height.

And xflight
X-Flight has a max height of 80"? To prevent peoples heads and feet from getting chopped off by a support or fly through element?

The coaster is lookin gorgeous!!
 As for standard sitdowns with max height, I know Bizarro at SFNE has one & I think its like 76 or 78". We did a huge east coast coaster trip in 2009 & my friend refused to visit with us simply because of this. He also told us SFAm & Darien Lake have them on their "Ride Of Steel"s as well. With Bizarro & Ride Of Steel(DL) I understand why after their accidents.
Usually rides with OTSR's have max height limits because of taller people with bigger torsos not being able to fit well in the harnesses that go over their shoulders. Founder of http://www.sfgamnation.com

SFGAm seems to be posting construction videos and pictures on Facebook once a month. I wish they would do it more often.
Yea, they need a few people dedicated to Facebook construction updates. Antonio Aguilera https://www.facebook.com/BEAMER3K http://beamer3k.deviantart.com/ View my artwork. Check out my YouTube Gamer channel. NRG-FLO Gaming. https://www.youtube.com/@NRGFLOGaming
look the snow is all most gone!
I know, that's awesome! On a side note, the structure for the dive loop looks pretty tall. Almost as tall as the top hat element.

Why do they jump around? It's been bugging me for a while, I mean why start the turnaround, start the dive loop, then go back to finish the turnaround? Thanks in advance
