About 245 feet tall, designed to perform exactly like a B&M Hyper from 2004-10. Let me know if something doesn't line up with B&M's style of design.

Too experimental here? Lemme know if this is too anti B&M:

I'm attempting to condense the entire layout into the area created by the first part of the layout; so less of an out-and-back shape and more of a bowled up layout, then back layout.

Comments n such?

For B&Ms, i wouldn't do something they have never done, or done something really closed to on one of their coasters before. Look around at all their rides, then kinda copy and paste their design around in your own order and add some little bits of originality here and there, but nothing too big. Keep it real. I would change quite a bit about the layout. Start with the tilted hill, and do it more apollos chariot tilted hill style.

Alright, I changed it to a 0g hill instead. Here's a closer look around.

The transition on the upwards part of that helix looks awful. Too quick, and really Newtony.

I'm in the process of reworking it. I accidentally broke it into two segments of a transition. The whole bank change process from the ground turn to the cutback-turn-around will be extending to almost the top of the turn... rather than half way. I noticed how bad it was too after taking that picture, but I wasn't gunna hide it.
