Trackwork: Accurate representation of the ride, including some of the notorious pumping that it has Pacing: Didn't seem off from what I remember Detail: This is where this suffers a bit. The shoulder harnesses never lifted on my program, and the queue doors never swung open or shut. More could have been done with the station. Scenery: Not much to write home about. The lake was nice, but there was not queue line, which would have been a nice touch. Difficulty: This is a difficult coaster to recreate. Since it doesn't have an actual vertical loop, getting all the inversions correct is hard.
Overall the coaster itself was quite well done. The station and scenery could definitely be improved.
Trackwork: 9.5- the trackwork was very nicely done. It was near perfect layout.
Pacing: 9- the side by side POV video ran just slightly quicker than your recreation.
Detail: 9- I was going to rate this catergory in the 8s but I really couldn't. The train style was identical, colors worked very well to the original (even though a darker color yellow would suffice better), the support positions were placed well and the styles of supports (basic seemingly, but there are tweaks which matches the real thing).
Scenery:7- to me a 7 is very middle of the road when it comes to the overall rating of this ride. There was some effort, but nothing that would scream recreation.
Difficulty to recreate: 9- the design style of Vekoma was done well. The layout isn't too difficult, but the Butterfly and Batwing inversions are not easy to recreate properly.
Overall I really enjoyed your recreation. Thank you!
I had the pleasure to be able to ride this one in real life not too long ago and I must say you came very close!
Trackwork accuracy: Most of the ride was spot on. Especially the Batwing element was done really well. Only thing that was a bit off is that the entry and exit of the Butterfly should have been parallel.
Pacing accuracy: Pretty much exactly right!
Attention to detail: The custom Vekoma cars are a nice touch.
Scenery Accuracy: Little effort was done here. You could have made the lake bigger so I could get a nice look at it from a distance.
Degree of Difficulty: This doesn't have the easiest elements to recreate and you did a very good job!
Really nice job with this - it was a solid recreation and had several details that made it enjoyable to ride. The best bits were the custom trains, however the track had a very good likeness to the real thing, and the supports were decent too. The major points of improvement were that some of the trackwork wasn't spot on (Butterfly element felt a little off on the exit) and the supports would've greatly benefited from having custom track connectors.
