California's Great America | "Gold Striker" | GCI Wood

[Newtrek5]

Rode Gold Striker today for a promotional shoot. I can't wait for people who think this thing is "just another GCI" to actually ride it. The ride is terrific. Expect to hear comparisons to Thunderhead once the reviews start coming in. It's that good.

Great job by the guys at GCI, and CGA!

Most of the review's have been excellent saying it's packed with airtime and an all round good ride. Something what CGA needed.

OPENING TODAY!

Spite / fail.

It had the media day weeks ago, but still hadn't opened for daily operations as of Thursday the 23rd.
:evil:

It is now open! Reviews have come back positive, with reasonable airtime and a good first drop. (regardless of the tunnel alteration)
