XENITH Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 The last of the 11 November maps is here after a fairly long delay! By far the most challenging map to date, and this one is anything but a small change: (Map updated as of November 28, 2019) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitr0o Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Just out of curiosity, that wide paved path (to the right of the Looney Tunes Seaport entrance and to the left of Congo Rapids; that was used for that Apocalypse walkthrough during FF), what did that used to lead too? Was it Koala Canyon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlumeOp1974 Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Great Up dates. Now on a side not. So much for it runs thru the forest were the rivers once flowed. the once thick wooded area is now just another six flags roller coaster hole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aerial shot of the molds is very helpful! I also wasn't sure what the shipment of bricks was for, as it seemed way too early in the construction phase to start doing any brick-pavers for the new pathways and the shipment was on the smaller side... now looking at it, they were used to weigh down the plastic film for the molds, as they are placed around the inner ring of each mold. Very cool stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XENITH Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 WE’VE GOT FOOTINGS! JERSEY DEVIL COASTER has its first footings poured in the back half of the ride as work is swiftly moving along around the station and transfer track area! I would expect the majority, if not all, of the footings to be poured before the end of the year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XENITH Posted December 22, 2019 Report Share Posted December 22, 2019 THE MELTING POINT Our December 12th map has officially become the single largest update in JERSEY DEVIL COASTER map history! From new footing molds to several identified columns and stakes, construction has shifted into fourth gear as the crew prepares to begin constructing the final molds in the coming weeks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XENITH Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 I apologize for the lack of maps recently! Along with the most recent update with a planned launch tomorrow (December 14th), I've actually had to rearrange and shift the entire surrounding area of the site due to a fairly substantial yet fluent inaccuracy. After tomorrow's December 14th map, we have over SIX ADDITIONAL maps dated before the end of the year! (12/15, 12/19, 12/21, 12/24, 12/27, 12/28). See you tomorrow for the map launch! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XENITH Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 FROM THE SIX After six days of modification, the updating of the December 14th map took longer than any other update thus far! The molds for the transfer track have been fully poured, while molds for the storage bays were constructed behind them. Several new excavations have appeared as well, including some for the end of the brake run and zero g stall! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XENITH Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 (edited) HAVE A DEVILISH NEW YEAR! To celebrate the upcoming 2020, I am releasing a super-package of site maps today, which includes a whopping 4 COMPLETED MAPS! Below I have attached the maps for December 15th, December 19th, December 22nd, and December 24th! Most excitingly, we have our first pier caps in before the new year! Today I will be working on the maps for December 27th and December 28th, and come January of 2020 I will aim to finish the map for December 31st. Happy Holidays everyone! In addition to the maps, I was able to locate the firm that is supplying the park with many of their construction materials, including the forms for pouring the pier caps. You can read more on their website: https://surebuilt-usa.com/ For more on the concrete forms: https://surebuilt-usa.com/products/sureply-forming/ I was also able to find the form dealer, which is located on New Durham Road in Edison, New Jersey; the firm is known as Gamka.

XENITH Posted December 31, 2019 Report Share Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) SLOWLY CREEPING UP! Here is the map for December 27th! We have a myriad of new molds in for the zero-g stall, exit of the "crows nest" turnaround, and bunny hops leading into the brake run!

XENITH Posted January 1, 2020 Report Share Posted January 1, 2020 HAPPY NEW YEAR ! I just got around to finishing the final 2019 JERSEY DEVIL COASTER map, completing the collection of the whopping 24 MAPS that were pushed out last year from November 4th all the way until December 28th. Since today is the park's last day of operations, the park will be providing us with weekly construction updates via their social media pages. Therefore, maps will switch to a more weekly schedule and will not be as frequent as before. Nonetheless, these next few months are going to be an exciting bunch with vertical construction beginning in the near future! I have created a folder of every map created to date. If you would like to view it, I have provided the link below: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1OtyBIBPOceT7lC6iR2-rg9hVEk9ke2aM?usp=sharing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XENITH Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 25 FOR 20! The first map of 2020, January 1st, is the 25th map to our series and I'd like to celebrate with a special announcement! @EasternThrills and I will be attending the JERSEY DEVIL COASTER construction tour at ACE's Winter Adventure this year! It will be super cool to see the site up close and get some more details on what is to come! The park today also posted their first "Behind the Adventure" Episode for JERSEY DEVIL COASTER today and it looks absolutely brilliant! They also hinted at the arrival of the track and supports soon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XENITH Posted January 4, 2020 Report Share Posted January 4, 2020 THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS The largest map update thus far of 2020 is a MAJOR step-up from the previous map. With around a whopping 25 PIER CAPS now in place, vertical construction is eminent within the coming month. Nearly the entire back half of the ride has been capped as work continues on the return trip from the crow's nest turnaround into the ride's final inversion and midcourse brake run! Make sure to check out @EasternThrills JERSEY DEVIL COASTER update dropping later tonight on his Instagram page @insidegadv Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
