Stunt Pilot Opening Weekend at Silverwood

Picture
We're going to have a lot more from Silverwood over the next few days including POV, Reverse POV and pictures from tomorrow (Saturday's) opening day. 

Update: 5/30/2021 - A bunch of amazing pictures from opening day are now below for you to feast your eyes on. This is one photogenic ride! Scroll to the bottom to see Media Day pics! ​

Opening Day Pictures

Picture
You gotta go under the highway to get to Silverwood. This is when any day at Silverwood REALLY begins.
Picture
Espresso and Pastry Bar. Good stuff, and they open earlier than anything else at the park. So if you get here early, to avoid a line at bag check, you can still pick up some caffeine and breakfast.
Picture
While waiting at the rope drop inside the park, Engine 7 pulled into the station.
Picture
To open Stunt Pilot, there was a flyover by a biplane.

Picture
The line wasn't outside of the building for too long- it just keeps moving.
Picture
While the ride does have 10 single seats per train, this helps when say, there's a group of 7, they can add 3 from the single rider line to have a full train.
Picture
Picture
Because of how long the train is, the sensations are quite different from front to back. Look how far down the drop row 1 is, while row 10 is still flat up top.
Picture
A stunt plane restored and hung upside down over the queue line. Brilliant bit of theming.
Picture
Picture
It's really cool to watch- and because of how the line goes right under most of the ride, you get to watch it a lot.
Picture
Picture
Very smooth, very fun ride. A lot of people got off and said "Let's get back in line" right away.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Entrance and Exit Through The Gift Shop
Picture
The opening day line in the afternoon
Picture
Panic Plunge. If you sit on this side, you get a great overview of Stunt Pilot for a moment.
Picture
It was a beautiful day for a ride opening
Picture
From over by the log flume.
Picture
Corkscrew Pizza. If you didn't get a picture of the corkscrew, did you even go to Silverwood?
Picture
From the side. The first drop is 87 degrees.
Picture
Picture
The guy in the back row looks like he might be rethinking his decision to ride.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Riders Seem To Really Enjoy This Ride. I did. Rode 4 times opening day, each time seemed better. It was really hauling late afternoon.
Picture
Hairtime!
Picture
Picture
Favorite photo of the day. This shot pretty much shows the gamut of rider reactions.
Picture
The Barn
Picture
You "Fly" through three air race rings as you ride
Picture
Not the shot I REALLY wanted. But you can see Tremors and Stunt Pilot trains in one frame here.
Picture
Tremors New Track
Picture
Old and New Side by Side. Tremors absolutely flies through the bowl area now.
Picture
Aftershock. Well, it didn't have such a good day.
Picture
Only shot I got of it in action today. It went down right before we were going to board. Didn't see it open the rest of the day. Oh well, we'll be back.
Picture
Another shot of the plane in the queue

Plane and Raven Turn

Picture
Another Train of Happy People

Picture
Someday I'll get a shot with Tremors and Stunt Pilot passing here.

Stunt Pilot Construction Update from Silverwood

Today Matt drove out to Silverwood to take a look at Stunt Pilot to see the progress on the newest RMC creation. 

Enjoy this quick update from the park! We can't wait for opening day! 
Written by Matthew Nelson
Hey there Silverwood! 
Picture
We set up shop across the interstate where we could get a look at Stunt Pilot. 
Picture
Picture
Mmm, Aftershock Towers. 
Picture
Oh, you're here to see Stunt Pilot! 
Picture
Picture
It's really hard to convey in pictures how bright white Stunt Pilot track is. But it looks amazing! 
Picture
Picture
How many coasters do you see in this shot? 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Now that RMC is done in Tennessee, we should hopefully see more track going up here very soon, and much better views from outside the park. 
Picture
It's going to look simply fantastic in this area of the park. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
The end! Hope you enjoyed this quick update from Silverwood!
