Sea World

Roller Coaster Martin & Vleminckx

The traditional wooden coaster look of Leviathan fit Sea World's vibe perfectly.

Leviathan Sea World

The ride's structure takes up a lot of horizontal space in order to brace the side-to-side force as the train picks up speed through the quick turn at the top of the lift hill before the first drop.

Lumber galore as construction continues.

Leviathan Sea World

The sheer expanse of the concrete slab that forms the ride's foundation gives a good idea of the ride's completed size.

The lift hill chain will pass around this sprocket at the base of the lift.

Leviathan Sea World

There is a gentle dip at the start of the ride into the lift hill.

Leviathan Sea World

One of the many "head-chopper" moments where the track darts through the surrounding support structure. In total there will be ten crossovers like this on the finished ride.

Leviathan Sea World

These orange wooden beams are locally sourced unlike the rest of the ride's muted pine look. It's a bold accent that's unique to Leviathan.

Leviathan Sea World

Everywhere you look is already a twisted mess of track with airtime, heavily banked turns and near-misses.

Leviathan also towers over Seaworld Drive from outside the theme park.

Leviathan towers over Nickelodeon Land, with the first drop aimed straight at Bikini Bottom.

Leviathan Sea World

Here you can get a really good idea of how wooden coaster track is made on site. Each 'rail' is a stack of wooden boards, with the top two boards overhanging by a few inches to facilitate the upstop wheels that keep the trains secured to the track. On the top and inner edge of this stack is a steel strip that the train's steel wheels ride on to minimise wear to the wood.

The steel-reinforced ledgers that will support the track have been planed to accommodate the angle of the track that will sit on them.

Leviathan Sea World

The impressive first drop is a sight to behold. What's most impressive is that it's actually one of the few traditional, straight first drops on any roller coaster in Australia. No twists, no gimmicks like beyond-vertical. Just sheer, plummeting goodness.

Leviathan ike most roller coasters isn't being built in order from start to finish of the ride but rather in such a way that construction crews can easily access the site for the entire process.

Leviathan Sea World

Unlike steel roller coasters which are built entirely from prefabricated components, traditional wooden roller coasters are built on-site from raw wood, which makes the process complicated in some ways, but easier in other ways.

Leviathan Sea World

There's many months of construction to go with almost a kilometre of twisted track to assemble.

Leviathan Sea World

Leviathan has quickly towered over Sea World in the few short months since construction commenced.

Leviathan Vortex Sea World

Here's one we prepared earlier.

Leviathan Sea World

The treated pine comes from Georgia. Highway... and roller coaster... construction only.
