Take a classic trip back to 1980 with this take on a classic forward and back coaster! With the nice rocky terrain and the lake right beside the track, it is sure to bring you a feel of nostalgia!
Ride Statistics: Height: 85 Ft Track length: 1988 Ft Speed: 46 Mph Ride Duration: 1:15
Note: This is not a smooth perfect coaster. Its built in the 1980's for a reason! The coaster itself has some unique parts (The wobbly lift hill and some of the weird turns) That I tried to replicate is if it was built from an early period. This ride takes ton's of inspiration from Canobie Lake park's 'Yankee Cannon Ball'.
I like This coaster. I reminds my of same of the old woodies of days gone by. That is not a bad thing, but if I have to rate anything a bite low it would by in the area of uniqueness. I would have added brakes at the halfway point of the ride (after the up hill section right before the track curves to go back); That could help you safety wish in order to add multiple trains (something that would also add to your coaster. Making the ride longer would have also added more adrenaline for me. I also liked the landscaping and the addition of the lake. Overall very nice work
Overall I liked the effect you went for and its a fun little coaster.
This ride had a really fun little layout - classic yet packed with some good lats and good instances of airtime. I think the best thing was the wooden effect thatyou tried out - certainly gets you major originality marks! The effect was maybe a little harsh on the final airtime hills but it faired well enough!
I know this was a bit ofan experiment but nevertheless - the supportwork could've done with some reworking around the 90degree turn as you had several clashes. I also think the ride would've benefitted greatly from some wooden support extras such as skid brakes and a wooden covering instead of the tunnel. It could defnitely have been a bit longer too!
I really liked the coaster. The layout seemed to end too soon though. The returning track should be right against the outgoing track. It was too far away from the other track.
