Pictures from the Myrtle Beach SkyWheel construction (updated 2/24/11)

**SkyWheel Myrtle Beach** · 02-17-2011 01:40 PM

The SkyWheel will load 6 gondolas at a time and then the flight will be for 3 revolutions for a total of 8-12 minutes depending on how much loading/unloading needs to be done during your flight. As of TODAY, SkyWheel components are being moved onsite! Some assembly will be happening at ground level over the next few days and then the middle of next week, you will start to see the A-frame being erected! That is when it will be much easier to get a perspective on how high this is really going to be...and that will only be halfway up to the eventual top!

The light shows should add a lot of excitement too.

With some of the ground level components being delivered today we thought we would add a few new pictures. Also WMBF was on hand to cover the latest developments.
