Okay so my topic about Elphaba got lost when the site was down, so heres the new topic.

Elphaba is a 230 foot tall Intamin hyper named after the main character of the book, and musical WICKED (which i saw on saturday, best show ive ever seen, simply spectacular - especially when Elphaba flies off the stage [:D] Plus I SAW IDINA MENZEL!!!! [:D] but anyway...). Ive been working on the ride since November 20th (i think) and ive just finished trackwork. I was going to have people testing, but i dont know if i can be bothered with having to wait for comments before making more progress, because i have alot of work to do, so i need to get it finished quickly, if im ever going to release it. Otherwise it will end up like my other tracks, abandoned because some work has come up, and then ive lost interest by the time i can come back to it! [V]

Anyway heres some stats for Elphaba:

height: 230ft
first drop: 195ft
top speed: 76mph
length: 5605.18ft
max positive g force: 5.0g
Max negative force: -1.3g
Max lateral force: 1.1g
airtime moments: 14
number of trains: 3

Theres the NLDC page aswell. Check out all the pics, and if you have any comments/criticism/thing i could work on please say them. As i said before i dont think i will actually have like an official testing period, but i may send it to a select few who i know will get back to me really quick.

Anyway, comments anyone?

P.S Dont say things about the colour - the ride is themed after Wicked which follows the life and times of the Wicked witch of the West from Wizard of Oz, and explores how she was actually good. So its a theme, its not just because i couldnt think of a colour scheme.

Yeah that Grimerie that's it!

The track looks outstanding! That turnaround type deal looks intense, as well as the hills! I love airtime above all ride attributes, so I looks like I'll love this ride!

Very cool Jason! Should you need another pair of eyes to look it over, I do believe you know how to find me. LOL

Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all.

CK im not going all out on 3ds im afraid. Maybe around the station area, but the ride is simply too big to completely theme, and i dont want a half hearted effort at themeing the whole ride. Its probably better for me to just theme the station area, and put some rocks, trees, and maybe a wooden house or something (Dorothys house maybe? [:P]) that you go through around the rest of the ride! hmmmm. Any other themeing ideas?
