Sheikra Music/POV Video

Hey, I just put up a new video on my site to replace the older one I had. It's of SheiKra at BGA. I like it a lot, especially the music. [:p] All the video editors let me know how it could be better!

To view, go to www.coastercravers.com and click 'Videos' at the top or left side. Click the Sheikra image on the right and enjoy!

Personaly dude I don't like any of your music choices... but thats just me. You have some nice shots though.

What genre of music do you prefer?

Well I'm more towards Alternative and Electronic Trance. You do have some Alternative but not really notible ones. Also When I listen the the audio it sounds weird. I just can't put my finger on it though.

Personally, I don't understand SheiKra. It looks fun and intense, but the water splash. What? I splashes from behind the car so a few guests may get drizled on. Do the riders get even remotely wet at all? don't get me wrong, I'm dieing to go on it, but I don't get some of the elements.

You get soaked yea. I'm not sure if there are any photos showing the walkway but it's wet. Stand in a spot of wet pavement and you will get soaked. Onride, the watersplash does nothing. It's neat on the outter seats since you're above the water, but you don't actually see the wave. SheiKra has a lot of visual impact. The water splash adds to it tremendously.

I actually liked the old video better, but thats just me. Both are great videos, your a good editor.

When your on Shiekra, not a drop of water touches you, but near by people do get fairly wet. As for the ride experience on shiekra itself, I think its simply amazing. That slow turn after the water splash still has surprisingly strong g's (I was expecting next to nothing on it, but I'm happy to say I was wrong) It's just a very awsome, well built ride, regaurdless of how much it has to the ride.

As for making your video better. 2 words... Video Compression. Find out whats the optimal settings. If your going to have your video in the 12 mb range, you might as well set the resolution lower as well so that way the screen doesn't look so crappy. Overall not bad.

^ yea the only thing that gets slightly wet is ur feet in the back row...but the offride passangers get soaked if they stand right under the track...

Man... I rode the SheiKra just at the beginning of the summer. I was in the front row, inner seats. That was a crazy ride (and it was the third coaster I had ever been on... meh).

Yeah Beans your right, the ride is absolutely amazing.
The efficiancy in the station is superb and the capacity is absolutely monsterous.
You say, yes. Simple, but god damn effective. And its so, so intense.
The drop, 200ft up, 90 degrees all the way down, some beautiful floater too, the Immelman has some nice hangtime, and the acceleration out of the backdrop is lightning. The second drop pulls some crazy ejector in the back, and the infamous underated turn you explained, pulled some nice g's.
The water drop doesnt wet the riders at all, and passers by will get a little wet, well. . . Soaked but not the riders. Helix is taken pretty slow put it still piles the pounds on.

And the ride DVD's are a fantastic idea. I mean it cost me 20 dollars but i always pull it out when i have partys and show my friends so it doesnt go to waste.
I think the ride itself is an engineering masterpiece. And im very sure we will see alot more B+M Dive machines in the future, if not very soon.

As for the video it was very well edited, i wasnt sure of the music choice but the normal choice of rock wouldt have suited the video any more than your song did, good work.

its a nice vid, but the music gets kinda annoying

I'm not sure if it is ejector in the back on the sec drop. It's floater IMO.

Well you have no idea what you are talking about, because anyone with a proper nervous system can tell that its solid ejector. Please get a brain.

I think it's ejector, but very brief. The first drop has more air IMO though that my be because it's sustained longer.

SFMM Homie's right, solid ejector but not sustained for a long time. The first drop has alot more air, more sustained yet its not really ejector, more floater.

well, take it from someone who's ridden both front and back, lol

its not exactly ejector, but its definately more than floater. there's really not too much difference in the two drops actually. there's only a speed difference of about 4mph at most, so
