To calm some nerves, as I can appreciate being passionate about a new roller coaster, especially when it's your home park (speaking as the resident CP fanboy): Yes, Orion is receiving flack for being a shorter-than-300-feet-as-it-stands-but-still-300-foot-drop Giga. And yes, it's also a big deal for the park, and will be well received. There doesn't need to be defending aspects of this coaster to the death, and it's ok to have differing opinion - you also only need read back through 50 pages of discussion here, alongside visit other coaster enthusiast discussion to see trepidation on how good the coaster is.
It's also the off-season, and we all do not have anything better to do. Hence why we've been discussing if Pantheon will derail for 3 pages in another topic.
Yeah, not a chance that's actually an 85 degree drop. Didn't realize PR depts could round 80 up to 85 like that
I mean, it is 85 degrees.
Or at least, it's going to be difficult to disprove in lieu of a proper-head on measurement. It also makes this tied for steepest Giga coaster with I-305, which to date is one of my favorite Giga drops, making me very excited for Orion's in turn.
