you couldve just posted the sentence where he said it rather than making my phone load all the images again. Lol...

Ride looks sweet, somewhat unoriginal but then again; why tamper with perfection? I don't know why people have to hate b&m's, they are infact very forceful in all the right places and are always ice smooth with spacious trains, more than I can say for a lot of other coaster manafactures...
It's almost as if b&m space out their supports more these days. I don't know if it's to save themselves money or so they can sell rides cheaper. Inspired me to make an out and back though ;p

^ because most of us like airtime... lol. No, i like BM's, especially these new BM trains, but they really do lack airtime. It's fun to ride, but after you go on an inta (COUGH COUGH S:ROS COUGH COUGH) you see how much they lack...
So, my friend came up to me the other day and asked if I wanted a frozen banana, and I said no, but I want a normal banana later, so... yea.

Well, if you push yourself up when they check the restraints and get like two fists of room between you and the restraint, B&M airtime can be better than any Intamin IMO[8D]. Just a perfect, blissful few seconds of pure floating...On Behemoth, there's one hill that's even possible to get three seconds of floating right in between the restraint and the seat. Now that is not lacking, haha.

^ I love doing that on Nemesis, while they are checking the restraint, you push up on it, make yourself like you're really fat, get a good few inches between you and the restraint. I love it, you get much more thrown around.

I did it on Nitro as well, but with the Clamshells, it did just genuinely feel unsafe when we were going round.... NICE [:D] made me laugh, although the missus was crapping herself, grabbing on to me and stuff.

Aha yeah Gouldy, my mom thought she was actually about to die on Nitro's first drop with the restraints pushed up. Since we were the only ones there, the ride ops let us have them almost too high up...Gooood times [lol]

Edit: Ah, nice! Fangs! Sick!

They'll slow it down when it opens. They're just breaking it in or whatever, they did the same for Bememoth and everyone got excited.. But then it was slowed down. Also, I think they use different material wheels that make it run a little faster to break it in as well.

I saw them testing it again today. March 6, 2009. They were stopping it on the mid-course brake to test it out. Worked perfectly!
