Any ride could do that. No need to bash a ride that isn't open yet...

Huge progress has been made on the layout! The first 3 overbanks are complete and that majestic turnaround is under construction (we really ought to name that thing :) ) Thanks to All-American Thrills for providing this aerial footage via drone!

It's been a long time

That first hill/turn is one of the best looking elements I've ever seen on a coaster. I have no idea why, I'm fascinated with it.

Eh I don't like it.
I think it is just weird and I feel it will feel awkward.
But I'll let you all know what I think when I ride it in August!

That turnaround looks even wierder in real life! I hope they will post a picture with a better angle, because that is my favorite element of the coaster. Second in my opinion is the "barrel turn" that Rick described above.

I still don't get how the turnaround is supposed to have airtime when it's sideways but whatever. Looks neat at least. New entrance should be kickass when it's done.

Agree.
Looks like it is going to be sideways ejector air. Maybe as a surprise bonus you actually get ejected sideways? :D

Looks majestic. Riders are going to get some lats on it, and that entrance will look amazing when completed.

I doubt its ejector - B&M doesn't really go for that - I imagine floater with the lats from the rotation.

Could be very wrong though!
