Cool Idea For New Coaster Type

I just stumbled onto this on Youtube... pretty cool idea for a new coaster type.

that is amazing. At first I just thought it was going to be X, but no! Wonderful

It looks like the Splitting Coaster type from RCT3-Wild.

There's another video that gives a closer look as to how it works:

This is AMAZING!!!!!

This could be a whole new way to combine racing coasters and a 4D coaster at a much lower cost. This could be awesome if these would start getting bought.

it's a good idea, but it also looks damn expensive.

Yes, but this version is actually worth building!

The two tracks joined together is gonna produce some really ugly supports.

Wow, what a fantastic concept ! [:O]

The first video on his YouTube page seems feasible. I would love to see him give more information about the 2 track/1 spine thing because that looks very unfeasible. Time will tell.

Pretty sure Setpoint had this idea like a decade ago at least and nobody bought it.

Why would this be unfeasible? As long as the vehicles do not connect, it should be pretty easy to build.

Official announcement:
X????????? will be renamed to X2 since the real X????????? is this stuff here!

I really like the second video of the cars that are facing forward, and not backwards like X2. It creates so many more possibilities. I love the idea of turning the cars face down for a flying coaster twist, roll.. thing. Unfortunately that would mean leg harnesses.

X2 does not have leg harnesses, and it has some parts that are kinda flying position


btw, i would like to see his track type looks very un safe. It would be best to add a triangle spine because triangles an the strongest shape and circles are relatively week. Also, he uses chains to rotate the seats in the Type 2 Design and that seems illogical. The Chains would probably snap a bit into the ride due to pulling a heavy wait. Additionally, The New trains guiding system looks meh. I can't really tell how it works, but it looks like it is not well thought out. Plus, I like the fact that X2 goes backward but his new idea looks way better.

This looks pretty well thought out, actually. It is the only way to make a safe Mobius coaster. However, I still think it will be almost impossible to heartline this ride properly.

This guy was at iaapa and had a stand. His idea is actually getting quite a bit of attention by coaster companies.

If he wanted to do a different track type, he would have to build a model froms scratch. For something that's just an idea, it makes mores sense to just use Coasterdynamix.

I agree... but i am willing to have leg harnesses if it does everything shown in the vid

even in that roll where the seats face upwards, you would still have lots of lats and verts, painful too.
