That looks disgusting lol. But hey, as long as it doesn't fall, I'm sure the park is OK with it. That literally looks like something I would design in NoLimits, decide it looked bad, then completely redo the ride. I really don't like it at all...oh well.

^ I agree.

I think the drop looks quite shmexy. Interesting how they just incorporated the truss right into the drop. Makes for a sturdy support structure...
So, my friend came up to me the other day and asked if I wanted a frozen banana, and I said no, but I want a normal banana later, so... yea.

So all track types that have a spine are a revolutionary concept?

Dont think I can but I will go before the park opens and when the gate opens, Ill run as fast as I can and be the first one ever on a B&M giga. NOTE: TRUE PLAN


Except for the fact that they'll probably auction off seats on the first train to charity. Not to mention that park staff will undoubtedly ride it before it opens. Also, they'll probably have a media day where the press can ride it.

We already have a plan to go like a few hours before the park opens, (or possibly camp in a tent outside a park. Just kidding lol) then when the gates open we run to the quenque ( cuz were gonna MEMORIZE the map) and also my cousins are track runners so yea. Well even fight for it! (again kidding) But seriously, I will do a lot to be the first.

I followed those exact steps for the New Texas Giant, but the park's poor organization caused us to get forced back in the line quite a ways. You can't be so sure.

Look at Dragon Fire in comparison. It TOWERS over that thing.

I wish I could ride it next year, but I guess Manta, Superman (SFDK), Skyrush,Verbolten, and Wild Eagle will have to do.. :P

I think that the sense of scale is totally lost with the spine and supports being so huge on the lift, look at the bottom of the drop were it peels away from the larger part of the spine and the track looks tiny.

When you walk up to the structure I think it'll balance out and look all huge.

Wow, I love the tri-color polygon theme. Wish the pics were a bit bigger resolution though, and that you didn't post them 4 times.
