Re: (NL1) Mombasa - EF with Twisted Layout

I'm more proud of this layout than any other ride I've ever made. It flows beautifully. Mac user here, have actually never used NL2, but from what I see the supports are awesome in that. I'll do what I can with those in NL1! Like I said, these supports are preliminary. I'm going to go back through a...

Re: Most "WTF" banking transitions

The transition into the final brakes on Raptor... lol. So much straight section there, why did they have to make it so quick?

(NL1) Mombasa - EF with Twisted Layout

Hello All Had some time on my hands so I went back through all the NL1 files and found one worth working on. So here it is! The supports look like poop right now, but they're for the most part preliminary; I'm trying to figure out how I want to go about supporting the twisted portions. Layout: 95 de...

Re: Mantis Becomes Rougarou Floorless Coaster - Cedar Point

How are the lateral forces, since the heartline is a little off from what a floorless would typically have?

Maurer Sohne X Car (Edit)

Greetings. Here's a Maurer Sohne I've been working on here recently. Pretty straightforward, it's compact, it has 4 inversions, top speed in the upper 40s and it's highest G-force is around 3.9. The layout is as follows. You start up a vertical lift to an inverted lift crest, and loop your way back ...

My latest work. Mackinac Bridge, Michigan. It connects the upper and lower peninsulas. Fifth largest total suspension bridge in the world.

Edit: Any of you use 500px.com? That's where I post most of my pics. Jw.

"Lavender Rush"

Lately I've been pretty bored.. so I started back up with NL and since I haven't been able to stop just building random crap. This so far is the most uploadable concept I've come up with. Entitled "Lavender Rush", this is kind of similar to Manhandler in that I plan for it to be very aesthetic/atmos...

Impressive transformation Ibanez! And are you sure about the 12%? I'd say you could be 10 or 11 easy. I've never tested mine but I'd say I'm somewhere around 12 or 13 since you can't quite see my full six pack yet, only my top four. You look to be of a lower percentage than I am so I was just wonder...

You can use the same principal with longer segments, too, by making them all the same length. :)

CK, stop acting like you know everything. You have one argument and you use it against everything. You realize that there are other methods of researching supplements rather than the container itself, right?
