I???m curious why the name of the first inversion was changed from Fake-Out Inverting Drop that was in the preview animation to Drachen Fire Dive Drop that???s shown here? https://rcdb.com/16479.htm

It looks smooth and will probably be a fun ride no doubt buuuut, it definitely seems... out of place :? Not sure if its the placement of the ride in this park or just the ride itself. Definitely giving me 'El Loco on Steroids' vibe lol and I can see Six Flags using this coaster type for gimmicky large scale coasters, especially considering they have a relationship with S&S.

It looks great! I'm still not a fan of the support structure, but the ride experience itself looks amazing! :D
