Yeah the footers for the second half of the tophat are definitely buried. This was from the March update.

Ah ok, so probably two similar towers.

That would match up with what Pantheon’s top hat looks like

That's one of the inversions.

There's no way. The supports are too short for a corkscrew, so maybe a heartline roll?

When I said that this would be Maverick 2.0, I didn't mean it literally Intamin!

A few other observations. The station and maintenance bay is going to combine to make a monster of a building.

To the right of the first launch, looks like the mesh is starting for some rock work.

So the inversions appear to be:
  1. Dive loop near the station
  2. One of Intamin's zero-g stalls after the top hat
  3. Mavericks missing heartline roll
Not bad.

This looks stunning and a great use of land. Can't wait when planting will soften the industrial look I think it is going to get, that would be a great match. I'm only wondering why the waterfall at the play-area is still running. Turning it off would save some money, right?

The supports seem like it's going into a stall like Pantheon after the top hat as well

Can't wait for people to get back in the park and see this massive new coaster going in and ask Universal Team Members what's going on...

Park Guest: "Excuse me, what's that new attraction being built over there in Jurassic Park?"
Universal Team Member: "Something exciting is coming."
Park Guest: "It sure looks like a new rollercoaster. Is it?"
Universal Team Member: "Something exciting is coming."
Park Guest: "Yes, you said that, but pretty sure it's a new coaster."
Universal Team Member: "Something exciting is coming."
Park Guest: "Cool, thanks...(walks away wondering if they were just speaking to a robot)"

Or the team member has to respond with "Eggs are beginning to hatch...."

Too late now, but would have been awesome if they wanted to continue to JP/JW theming and install an underwater observatory near the waterfront in JP like you can see in seaworld. You install a couople of fake glass screens like at the one in hollywood and every 15 mins the mosasaur rushes the screen and sprays water. At other times you just see it swimming around.

Will the new raptor encounter be open when the park reopens?

So the top hat is the Mossasaur leap from the film's reveal of the park?

There's a possibility given how quickly they're moving but I wouldn't put money on it. I can see attention being moved away to the JP coaster to get the walls back up and the area more presentable.

Also I’ve never done it, but Raptor Encounter is done pretty much individually by group right? Pretty easy to social distance there unless the Raptor can breathe corona all over people

Hopefully it doesn't hit it at 70 MPH and have to be removed.

It’d be funny if on the launch and on the way up to the top hat there’s some water effect of us bursting out, and the water effect is so large it gets people on Popeyes SOAKED
