That's one of my favorite hills of any ride. It's best by far in the front, it has a serious duration of good airtime at like 70mph. Only thing I thought is the exit could be a little less drawn out, but that wasn't a big deal. Despite only being say -.4 or -.5 I enjoyed it as much as I do other hills with 2-3x the force.

Totaly! And its made even better because its the only one on the whole ride! It makes it much more eventfull. And i really dont think the helixes and twisted layout is all that more boring than a traditional hyper with mostly hills. Those helixes are damn intense!

I actually wish that there was one more hill on goliath to balance out the helixes.

I'm currently making the airtime hill. Trying to get the shaping right. So you guys saying it sustains about -0.4? Also, anyone have a clue or estimation of high tall the airtime hill is? I have it 90ft right now, it seams about right.

Yeah try anywhere from -.3 to -.6 in the front row, and see what the curve looks like, or I guess make the curve then see whether the force is in that range.

^^90 ft sounds about right, same with the g forces. You can take pictures at the same angle as these so we can compare.

Use this picture to see if you are getting the hill at the right angle as it crosses the drop

So this project is cancelled. Unless someone can bring back my old laptop from the dead (motherboard problem). Someone told me it's possible to save the files I had, but it will cost me $$$. Now I have a new laptop, and starting a new project.

Lame Ballerboi. I've been on that ride 20 or more times now. Your progress was looking great. Bummer about the laptop.
