2015 - DISAPPOINT!

I live 5+ hours away from the nearest one .I've been on steeper drops than 90 degrees though (Fahrenheit)

I've been on fahrenheit and my home park is Cedar Point with maverick both having a 95 degree drop. This is a completely different feeling than the ejector air drops of beyond vertical. It's a completely different feeling than even other vertical drops. These hang on the edge before they fall, and when they do, they literally fall like a rock. The track is shaped so the train falls in total freefall, there isn't any forces at all, it's just... facedown floating until you pull out of the dive. There isn't anything else I've ever been on like it. UNTIL Falcon's Fury but that's an entirely different ball game. Falling like that triggers something different that other coasters and rides can't do. Just as those beyond vertical drops don't feel like any other.

I'm with Helo, every flagship park should have one

^Agree with everything stated above. Fahrenheit's drop was unlike any other, and it is relatively short. Imagine a taller version! The floater you would get....

^ And that might be why it hasn't happened yet

Full throttle's last drop gives some pretty good ejector feeling, although it is short.

I was saying there is nothing like a weightless fall and a beyond vertical fall. Both are unique in their own right. I prefer the straight weightless facedown freefall of Dives more than the beyond vertical though. Sheikra and Griffon are the only coasters that still hit the pit of my stomach like I was a kid. It doesn't seem like much but just as on airtime hills there is a big difference between how floater and ejector feels. Deju Vu used to do it too.

That is definetly ejector for me XD And there will be for 2015! Cannibal will have 116 degree drop out of the ugliest ride tower from 208ft lol

Can you stretch your tongue to 5/8 inch? or a whole inch?

B&M dive with...

Well, if it's going to be the same airtime as on Krake:


Then we can expect a really nice floater.

So far it looks exactly like Krake but turning to the left instead of right

Gardaland's dive will have a helix after the hill into a roll.

Very true, and now I really remember it, since I just rode it a week ago

White coasters are ugly :/

[TTD03]

I thought that too, but full throttle actually looks really good in white!

With Raptor right there in all black it contrasts fairly well, by itself though that would be an ugly coaster

That's racist

It's not all white though, the supports are charcoalish black

Same at Heide Park too.

I soon clicked "I like" button after enjoying the recreation of Gardaland's B&M Dive Machine! Can't wait for the real one next year!

Dear Lord, Raptor and The Dive are just beautiful<3

Isn't that Krake and Flurg?

This isn't Flurg. Forgot to post the picture.

Now if only people in the US could see how good the 2 colors look together... Sarcasm aside, Its nice to see more dive being built after the Busch Gardens one they seemed to stop being bought, now we have 3 new ones in 2 years

[mkingy]

Still don't buy into the pure white - I get it at Heide cause flug doesn't have white supports.

I think the all-white is ok; I mean, it looks fine to me on Formula Rossa for example, so with that contrasting Raptor im ok with the all-white look
