I think spinning coasters are my favorite type of roller coaster. That said, I also feel that most real world examples don't live up to the design's potential in any sense. Just from the image I saw of White Wolf when posted, I couldn't wait to get home to download and ride it with hopes for an exciting realistic ride, and White Wolf exceedingly and abundantly delivered.
Looking at White Wolf, the track work was smooth, aesthetic, and realistic. And more importantly, unique. I didn't get a sense of "been there done that" with White Wolf which also follows through to the ride itself. From the landing point the paving and landscaping were meticulous, the environment was immersive, and the attention to the theme and logo of White Wolf as well as the walk through the queue and station were well received. It really feels as each car arrives "just for you", I think that's fantastic.

Smooth track throughout the entire ride
Creative and thrilling use of of space. The pacing and space between major elements worked well with the spinning of the cars, it wasn't overkill and still seemed to always be doing something.
I love the creative supporting, especially around the top hat. The supports are functional, stylized, and not overbearing.
There are a few things I have to say about the ride itself will be about the two key features I were glued to from the photo. The Top Hat and the Drop. The top hat was perfectly placed, giving ample time for disorientation I was still surprised the first time through it. Great forces every time and an amazing view if you catch it right. Absolutely love that top hat.
The Drop itself was amazing along with the rest of the ride. I would have rather the release happen after the drop as a section. Also while not much of an issue in operating, I was thinking that getting stuck backwards on that lift angle might be a bit much with the car type. The final trivial nitpick is that MCBR, while completing estop, does need a dingable bit of bump lol.
The attention to detail is impressive! The amount of spinning is excellent! The smoothness and quality of track is mind boggling. You did a super job on this contest track. You took what many would consider very difficult to do and made it look easy! I really liked this track, it is well supported, the theme is excellent, great colors, awesome flowers. That entry sign is killer! The adrenaline is there, it is fun all around. Great job! I really like your designs!
