DragonFly

- Background

Fly through nature on this intense flying rollercoaster that's built into a peaceful meadow. Containing the worlds first rolling pretzel.

- Design

I started this as I noticed shaping on The Flying Dinosaur could improve on a flying coaster I design a while ago, but in the experimentation I ended up completing a layout that felt like it needed it's own identity. This coaster is focused on one of my favourite aspects used in coaster design, combining machine and nature, trying to make them coexist and blend together. This has many influences from Air/Galactica's use of the terrain, to Flying Dinosaurs huge swooping elements. I wanted this ride to be intense, but with the grace of it's real life counterparts.

Andre Northan came onboard and designed the station and queue, influenced by Untamed in Walibi Holland and a viewing path that winds out from the woodland into the rides clearing.
