I'm talking about a stratacoaster over 400 feet.

4 300ft+ tophats, including one inside tophat and one 450-270 twist outside tophat, with one or two heartline rolls and and INSANE airtime hill.


As for "Ali Baba and the 40 loops", the onion fails. the "500 foot tall steel coaster, launched to 165 MPH" has a lift hill, and doesn't appear to break 200 feet. But I'm still going to have to make that on No limits. ;)

Well, while it might be nice to see variety in the Strata-category, let me just ask you this, "Are you willing to spend at least $50,000,000 on a coaster that would be way to drawn out and boring because of the immense speed?"
Sometimes you gotta sacrifice a little bit of yourself to get the job done.

I would love to see a strata with a 55 degree elevator lift hill. 95 degree drop. A vertical loop, an immelman, an overbanked turn, interlocking corkscrews, brake and a launched 88 degree double helix, a slight trim, followed by a heartline roll into the final brake run. Floorless of course.

I'd like to see B&M get a little more intense with their fliers and also dive machines with more interesting elements and layouts

How about a roller coaster with an underground loop? In total darkness.

Yes, because loops have never been done indoors before. [/sarcasm]

I think Pretzel loop for Half underground is better

I thought about that before when I was trying to build a flyer, which ended up not being very good in general. But I wanted a pretty small coaster, so the lift wasn't very tall and it could go into somewhere like Alton Towers with their height restrictions. But even though it was only going to be 64ft tall, I wanted a great big 150ft Pretzel loop, so that would have involved having the bottom 2/3 of the element under gorund.

I got quite excited about doing it until I remembered that I have nothing to do 3Ds on, so going underground in NL is impossible without having your riders smashed into a wall of grass [lol]

I want to see cedar point build a 500' tall, 200 MPH aquatrax which features a 150 degree drop. That is all.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

How bout this, When somebody orders a $20M piece of hardware, make it work right the first time so we don't have to fiddle with it for two years or more.

All RCCAs should be RMC'd. And that event shall be henceforth known as the Rollercaust.

Dream on... That's high unlikely to happen. Thanks to the village next to EP the soundwall and those magnetic brake trims already came onto Silverstar. Woodies create even more sound than all the current effects combined...

And don't say that future should get silent woodies. That totally kills another factor from the real wooden coaster experience.The intamin wooden coasters have already killed one of the factors...

I'd like more rides like the ones that Hopkins made only without the huge amount of headbanging and pain (see Dragons).

The new B&M Hyper trains with no floors but the bracing needed to hold up the seat would be absolutely amazing. They're already so wide open, so having no floor would be crazy...

And A suspended hyper would probably not work for saftey reasons.



Why wouldn't it work?


The suspended trains would fly in the air on airhills, which is the whole point of suspended coaster.

it would be like a hyper bobsled. Why bother?

the g's might be too forceful, I'm not saying it wouldn't work, I'm just saying it might work, but it would be pretty cool to see one if it did.

Nananananana Batman(!): The Ride contradicts that statement! If rides like Batty and Nemmie can have huge force and be inverted, I dont see why an inverted hyper wouldn't work.

And Maurer Sohne has actually developed a 2 seater floorless prototype, A113!

Huge forces for short periods of time is okay in most situations. Its when you begin sustaining them for long amounts of time that problems arise.
I guess the next best thing would be floorless hypers.
