Starting a little GCI project. I'm not too familiar with GCI shaping, so comments will be appreciated throughout this whole process.

I think you need to widen your lift crest's radius. It looks kind of tight in the picture.

Yeah, after looking at more GCI's I've found some things I need to work on. I'll be re-doing the whole drop to resemble something like this.

The drop does look much more round at the top.
How many negative G's are you pulling at that hump?
How tall is that/What is the speed?

The end if your drop is IMO too lately arriving : look at El Toro, it's like there are 2 curves : one to go off the hill, and one which makes the turn at the bottom of the drop. Besides, your drop starts banking too early.

Do everything you can to kill G's that doesn't involve banking but keeps the ride fast. That helps me when I'm making a GCI.
