Cheap, sketchy, or strange looking roller coasters topic

[Turbo]

looks like a massive waste of steel

The weight on the cables must be huge!

I don't understand that. What possibly is the advantage of it.

Looks pleasant, at least, to me!

Wasn't sure where to post this, but have you ever noticed that Disney Water rides smell different? This really interesting video explains why:

^ WOW YOU'VE MADE MY DAY! It's diving like Tennessee Tornado!

I didn't think to take a picture or video of this, but I was at a local carnival that had this weird ride called 'Gravity' that consisted of a small, horizontal cylinder that you climb inside, where there are 2 circular tubs that riders sit in and it looks claustrophobic. Then the ride op closes the hatch and riders are left in nearly total darkness while the tubs spin, and IDK if the tubs also spin upside down along with the cylinder or not. From the outside all that an observer would be able to see is the cylinder spinning, not knowing what's going on inside.

It is this ride?

That would be it.

Can someone make it in NL2?

I actually found a POV of a coaster at Pattaya park, and it is a doozy in terms of sketchiness. It looks super rough and the cart barely makes it over any of the elements. The cart also looks similar to the one on the unopened Formula One coaster.

I'll post this photo for you. Taman Festival Bali's only coaster. It's still in mystery as no one is able to explain that "extremely" rare looper well!

ARROWY ZERO-G-ROLL!

These are the type of videos I like to watch on TPR's channel, and this one kinda reminds me of how Kentucky Kingdom looked during its closure.

Oh dang, that airtime. Apparently the seatbelts are the primary locking mechanism. From the same park as that Formula One coaster that never opened.

I don't even want to think about what would happen if the seat belt failed....

As if to let everyone know how seriously they take safety.

I know it's not a roller coaster, but this new concept looks interesting:

Just found this really weird looking suspended coaster in China on rcdb:

U-shaped crossties plus no spine. Ew!
