S&S 4D Coaster For China ??????????Media Day 4-20

How come all 4d's are the same color scheme?

About X2's roughness, it used to be the front was the only place it didn't toss you around. But having been on it recently, that is no longer the case.

And,Here! Project PLAN!

So, it's X2, but mirrored?

^ Looks like there's a 360 twist instead of the hill, and I think that's an overbank instead of a flat turn, but yeah, pretty much. Really dissapointing, there's so much potential for these 4d coasters to have some truly inspired designs but they all seem to follow the same basic layout.

Considering they're all separated by an ocean (I know Japan is off the coast of China) I don't see why cloning them is a problem.

It's eejanaika.

They have that design for space. High thrills narrow footprint. That's what they are marketing I'm sure

It's not really, it's just that I think it would be interesting to see the concept of a 4d coaster developed a bit further.

Update:These pics are taken by various people from Aug 11th to Aug 13th

Exactly. I have no problem with them cloning things, but it's just sort of hard to get really excited about something like that.

HUGE UPDATE??????????????????
These Pics are taken today at Multiple Angles
Shows almost all Supports are completed

This looks pretty awesome. However, I still don't trust anything made in China.

We know what you mean, though.

Why must all 4D's be black and red?

Why must 66.7% of 4D coasters have horribly misshapen raven turns?

Also, thank you for clarifying the height. My brain was hurting trying to justify the whole 'taller than Eejanaika' bit with the fact that this ride looks dinky in comparison.

It's shaped that way to keep stable forces at the top while you do a backflip, same with eejaniaka, that's why X2's is the (quote) "only well shaped one"

the first raven turn is just like a third of a loop, then a parabolic hill similar to b&m's, in order to maintain 0gs for the backflip.

Awesome but...

Another generic 4th Dimension.

^Agreed.
