UKUBA is a fast and thrilling ride through the bushes of Africa. Tight turns, many inversions and forces up to 4 times your own body weight. Dare riding it??
Up to 9 inversions and the first of its kind.

THIS IS UKUBA

I think we need more close-up pics if you want us to help you out. But from the layout shot you gave us, I can say that the drop looks like it stays flat at the top for too long, and the loop is too wide, and if the thing immediately after the loop is a 0-G roll, it's really wrong. As far as the cobra roll and immelmann go, we need to see more detailed pics. Is this handbuilt?

You don't have enough brakes, and what the hell is with the prelift?

there are enough brakes, u just cant see them here and the pre-lift is a barrel roll like on Hydra but it turns the corner at the same time

no, there aren't enough brakes. B&M typically uses at least 3, sometimes 4 different block sections. There's no way you have enough there. And your prelift sounds like a really bad idea.

what ever brake you have behind the sation, just simply split it into two. Make one a skid, and the other a switch track/holding block. And that it, you have enough blocks, because your station and lift are blocks themselves.

Don't remove this topic, and Intamania we're not moaning at you or demeaning you, just simply trying to help. Accept our advice and make the changes, then by the time you submit the ride we've all done a bit of a journey together and people will actually download your ride and rate it and you will be better know. It's all good.
