Finally! Concrete information at last
Should be fun, I'd make the effort to go and ride it couldn't they just get their arses in gear and get it up and running in 42 days time?

Max speed is only 65 mph, but nearly 600 feet up is gonna be **** nuts! Judging by top speed, I can't imagine the biggest drop being more than 150 feet, probably a few 100 foot drops followed by some wrapping of the tower.

So I take it nobody noticed the interesting wording about the first drop?
Inverted-G roll.
Is this also taking the worlds highest inversion record as well? Cause if it is doing something akin to Smiler and Iron Medusa, then look 500ft down, while upside-down, will be a major mind ****.

Although that is just concept art and not a guaranteed layout - you can see how it works in terms of the layout with the tower, although, Florida's version apparently goes across some buildings that are under the tower and has sections away, wether or not that happens is another thing.

POV IS OUT!
Oh my, it looks like it may end up being rather good.

Looks like it has 9 inversions.... that would give it the most in North American (8 would also give them that as well) and it seems to have at least 2 beyond 90* drops

An outward banked turn, then a beyond vertical drop at that height! Speakless, I have no words.
Orlando trip booked!!!

It looks incredible! A long ride and with those elements at the height of it, should be really good.
