The spine gets thicker at the end of the flat part. They were probably forced into that for one reason or another.

^ Hopefully that we would see a splashdown which is not for the finale, but for the main show of this ride! Full Speed Splash Zone!

:D

Just think that Mako is an extreme version of "Apollo's Chariot"! BTW what's the angle of that insane drop?! :)

I dont get the big deal about that flat section. B&M does that all the time and since some of their first coasters.
All hail your great Arrow Dynamics overlords.

I think in an ideal world the ride would be better with sustained g-forces rather than not sustained g-forces!

Yeah I definitely thought I saw the spine thicken and it clearly didn't lol.

Mako needs the Krake's "Swallow!" part for that flat section! I mean, the shark version! :)

I love the supports on that first hill.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

It honestly looks like B&M scaled down a giga lift and drop for a hyper lol.

If it rides anything like Leviathan's drop it will have great floater! Leviathan has one of my favorite drops ever.

Take a look at the first drop "supporting technique" for Mako! It makes me think of a Giga, really! :)

^ The second twisted drop looks way different from that of a 2000 B&M Hyper! Looks uber-smooth! :)

It definitely looks odd compared to what they normally do

Sexy roller coaster. That drop would have to go downward to get closer to the ground.
