I enjoyed the pacing of the ride - for almost the entire the ride it felt like you used the speed fairly well - and you certainly packed a lot of elements into the ride!
The supports needed a lot more work - they weren't strong enough for the ride's massive scale and the beam connecting the two tracks wouldn't have been any use at all. Some of the G's were perhaps a tad strong (in succession this might've been a problem - but then you have listed this as fantasy so much less of a problem).
My advice to you would be to look at real large structures (think Millenium Force, TTD, Fury 325 as well as buildings etc.) to gain an appreciation of what big structures need to look like to be strong enough.
Keep up the good work it was nice to see a large scale fantasy ride that pushed a few boundaries!
t- The Gs are a big problem, probably having a little trouble. I have some myself. But it doesn't look like he seemed to notice it. The Inversions were smooth but a little shaky.
a- Pretty decent layout, good inversions, launch. The Gs as I said would make this unbearable. But excluding the Gs, it was a great ride.
o- 5.25 because there have been many long multi-launch/inverting coasters in the fantasy category. The ugly colors are also not uncommon (sorry for saying that, just stating that yellow, green, and black should not be a combo). There was really no terrain and terrains give a lot more originality.
T- I bet that it slipped his mind how rough the Gs could be. Nuff said.
A- Oh, it was thrilling, to the point where I wanted to get off. If you don't notice that the screen is shaking as if your head will fall off, then you don't know what rough looks like. The Gs were high. also half way through, I got a little board.
O- It's original, but in my opinion it needs some work. ._.
Edit Numbers Removed by Moderator. For not a good enough explanation on why you gave the numbers you did, and for being just plain rude.
This is a great and intense ride. It's a little too intense for me though, between the 3 corkscrews the vertical Gs went over 5 and shot into the red zone. Also the trim breakes on the curve were odd and I feel that if they were slowed a little more that would prevent the high G spike.
T: Other than the above 2 points the trackwork was very smooth. Unusual element combination and pacing was great.
A: The one thing that really knocked the adrenaline value was the super intense corkscrews. If the Gs were a bit lower, then I would have given a higher rating.
O: Very unique and original layout. This coaster had me riding again and again to experience the original element combinations and layout flow.
