WICKED Cyclone - Six Flags New England 2015

[Paradox]

I have a feeling this was probably recorded before the wheel change.

Here's a good video I found of WC testing... Weird because it looks much faster than the pov.

The POV was most likely filmed before the wheels changed and earlier in the week.

It is hauling right now. I can't wait to experience this insane ejector.

Like we mentioned before, WC's POV is terrible, so it's hard to compare.

Fair enough, yeah.

Can't truly judge, period, until it's fully tested and running how it will run when open anyway I guess.

I got excited before because that was the first time I'd actually really looked at Medusa, and I was very impressed by it

After looking at the POV for WC, I noticed that the exit ramp was already built and I believe it was painted to an extent. When I went last week the ramp wasn't painted yet. So the POV had to be pretty recent...

I thought they re did it

Well let's all hope that it goes faster in the next POV!

Theming is going in!

[TTD03]

Excuse me? Did you say theming on a SF coaster? Nah of course you didn't.

I see that now

Good thing we have the video here too!

[Metazoanhaddock]

maybe change the embedded video to the CC one?

EDIT: oscar fixed it

.....aaaaand.... it looks fast again. What is it with this ride how one pov looks slow, then another from a different angle shows the trains hauling?

[JAMMY]

Looks great in that POV/B-roll! I'm actually quite surprised at how minimal the laterals look on some of those turns!

It looks more extreme and faster than the old POV too, can't wait to ride it tomorrow!

1:36 - 1:44 looks like it WHIPS through the layout!

Looks amazing and relentless. I gotta say, outside of Outlaw Run and Medusa, I think WC and TC will be the best RMC has created yet. What an airtime filled time it's going to be on both coasts!

B-roll looks great. It's funny how a reverse POV can better convey speed. I think Fury's reverse POV gives a better sense of speed as well. Perspective changes everything.

The ride looks as roomy as "Full Throttle" does!

[gouldy]

Yeah, that looks a lot more like what i was hoping for. A few of the reverse POV shots are really telling, in terms of the speed it's actually carrying through the layout.
