Looks like a cool ride, except for the fact that the rotation on the no inverting loop looks like something a n00b would come up with in NL...

^It's not at all consistent rotation. The dive portion is the most drastic, I think.

Why in hell would a varying rotation speed be more comfortable than a consistent one?

female doging aside, this ride looks like tons of fun. I definitely would not mind seeing more of these sort of coasters pop up at some more parks as long as they don't throw on some uncomfortable OSTRs.

I don't mean linear transitions, I mean smooth ones. I do understand the ambiguity though.

Most B&M/Intamins don't use perfectly "smooth" transitions. You just seem to have noticed here and not elsewhere.
