Click here to view the onride animation!

Thanks for the find FN!

The pull through has already started. Testing should be soon!

this coaster looks nice even though the animation wasent to great the layout seems awesome, lets see whos the first to recerate it hehe.

I wonder what they were using for that animation? It was a little jumpy, but the pacing/acceleration etc... seemed far more realistic than NL

^ yeah

Intamin probably made their own program

Hmmmmmmm well it looked amazing! I realy think this will be an awesome ride, and should provide some very decent airtime.

Dang, this looks awesome! Those S-Hills look like they will deliver INSANE airtime and laterals.

A little jumpy? I have no clue of the pacing jet. The video was stacking so much for me. I agree the layout IS great though, even I would have prefered only one of these twisted hills plus one more straight one... It'll still be the best Intamin Rocket IMO.

This looks amazing to bad I wont ride it for a few years.

i though it had two corks?

does any1 have pics of the trains?

From RCDB:

When do you think they will have actual onride footage?

Depends if the park gets some or not. If they do it will probaly be around testing like what WBMW did with Superman:Escape. IF they don;t, I wouldn;t expect one until some person sneaks one or gets permission.

O.k i hope they do it during testing then.

I don't like the 2 'S-hills' or 'non-inverting-corkscrews'. 1 S-hill and 2 corkscrews would be better!

I disagree. I'll take lats and airtime over inversions any day.

^I wouldn't really take lats on a steelie. More airtime for me or disorientation on the corks.

They got onride footage? Where's the link?

^Pay attention please. There is no onride footage yet. Therefore there is not link.

I was talking about Superman : Escape. They took a POV while testing. I was saying it would be nice if they did the same for this coaster.

^So, where's the link?

I'd take inversions and air time, myself, but I also like a good wooden coaster. As for this ride, it looks meh, I think it would have been cool if there could had been the first air hill, corkscrew (instead of switchback air hill) then what is now the third switch back air hill into that other corkscrew. So the sequence would go like this - air, corkscrew - air, corkscrew.
Seems better to me, but I guess the back to back to back air time isn't bad either.[^]

^Well, that would seem a bit repetitive. I like the staggered ending.

Only real "meh" part of the ride is that lackluster ending. Would have been nice to end with a helix instead of a lame 180.
