Thank you for posting this. So Chance Rides doesn't fabricate the track themselves but hires intermountain lift. What part of the ride does Chance handle in house? Do they build the trains, design the ride layout, or are they just a broker who contacts out all the work but just manages the process and owns the patent on some of the parts (such as the track design they acquired from DH Morgan)?
I live about a mile from Intermountain Lift and have visited on a few occasions. It's a really cool facility. I drive by and see that orange track still sitting there a few times a week. Can't wait for the coaster to actually open so I can make a trip down to ride it. Thanks for the inside look!
BRING BACK ARROW!!!! MAN IF ARROW HAD TODAYS TECHNOLOGY OMG. THE SMOOTHNESS AND THE NEW ELEMENTS TRANSITIONING ONE INTO ANOTHER. BRING BACK ARROW. A NEW ARROW FOR A NEW TOMORROW. YESSSSSSSSS! THE PETITION STARTS DOWN HERE⬇️. Lol 😂
The roller coaster is going to look like Final Destination 3's Roller Coaster because the Arrow's track is Orange and the support poles are almost White and I wonder if the train is going to be red and black with black/red/ yellow over shoulder restraints.
Isn't this the company that built the steel curtain track and supports? 😅 Also I'm confused, because i thought Chance was a ride manufacturer, not just a designer
I'm trying to get an answer on this myself. It appears that Chance designs their coasters but has someone else fabricate them using their own Morgan track design.
Dana Morgan's father was one of the founders of Arrow and Dana himself was a higher-up at Arrow before he left and eventually made his own company. The Morgan/Chance track in Dana's own words was a updated, more refined version of the track Arrow first created. It's an awesome track. All Morgan, Chance Morgan, and Chance Rides coasters built using this exact track design are still operating and known for smoothness.
Yes, seems like construction is progressing slowly. But the thing is that most of the park is indoors so they have to construct a number of huge buildings, it's not just building the rides and some small buildings like ride stations
Thanks for this in depth look on this!! The supports are here, now I'm just waiting on the track to get down here for my next construction update 😭😭😭🎢🎢
Thank you for doing a mini doc on the roller coaster with a lot of sentimental value to me as an AZ enthusiast!
You’re quite welcome! Thanks for the comment! 🎢
While Morgan was bought out 20 years ago the track design still lives on

Oh I can't wait for this video! And that track looks incredible!
Thanks for putting this together! I cannot wait to see more about this new project!! This looks so dope. Cant wait to watch!
So awesome to see behind the scenes!
As much as I love desert storm to pieces, I’m so excited and happy Arizona is finally getting a new thrill coaster after 30+ years!
come on you know the "Patriot" more scary than the DS...

Awesome!!! Thanks for the watch! 💙
Great video! Very interesting! I enjoyed watching!
dude, we have to go to Phoenix and check this thing out next year! ride looks like so much fun 🤘🏻
Yeeessss see you guys there
National Coasters, I am curious, who scored the music for the documentary? Thank you for the video!
Great Job. Thank you for this.
Greetings! May I use this footage in a video I'm making about 2024 coasters? I will give your channel full credit.
Thanks a lot for showing us this! Very cool stuff
Not even joking, I pass this place all the time.
Damn that is a great video! Congrats on being able to shoot that video!
Thank you!! 🎉
As a Arizonan, it’s weird to see them on the floor in the snow, then on the floor in at the construction site😂😂😂😂
I'm curious how many people actually go to a theme park in Arizona to stand for hours in long lines under the Arizona sun for 5 minutes of ride time.
Yewww! Gonna be fire 🔥
You’re getting a follow from me sir. Great job

Take it up with S&S. They own arrow's assets.

*Patiently waiting for my hometown to get its first new ciasters in 30+ years*
Would love one in the east coast
Orange is the best color.
So hyped 🙌
In Glendale, AZ? It probably won't be ridden for 4-5 months of the year unless it's indoors!
The station and the rest of the rides are all indoors. The track goes outdoors though.
🙌🙌

It feels so uncanny to see arrow track with smooth transitions

Its absurd how long this park has taken honestly. Wasnt this announced like 3+ years ago?

Ay, J. Here's a fun fact: On January 1, 2024, the first gen alphas will turn *14.*
as someone who lives in goodyear az and drive by this a few times a month i guarantee it will not b finished by 2024 😢
There's no way I can't belive they were trying to stick to that just a few months ago
bro gone
Oof, that 30 second intro is fucking killing me.
Thanks for this in depth look on this!! The supports are here, now I'm just waiting on the track to get down here for my next construction update 😭😭😭🎢🎢
