    US Thrill Rides Polercoaster opening near Atlanta & in Florida (now Las Vegas)

    Re: USThrillRides Polercoaster opening near Atlanta & in Flo So is this thing trimmed along the entire length of the track? I noticed some interesting banking in the concept video which I can't replicate in NL at all.

    Six Flags New Additions for 2014

    How is actually RMC's relation with Gerstlauer? I find the shaping of the dive loop and the inverted drop exactly the same as Smiler's. pointed, fully inverting dive loop http://rcdb.com/11062.htm?p=44820 corkscrewy flat rolls http://rcdb.com/11062.htm?p=45277 Compare with B&M's: flat lead in...

    Cedar Fair Announces Investment in Carowinds

    IMO wingriders shouldn't have become loopers in the first place. Those trains would fit way better on any B&M hyper. Originally thought the same about flyers, but changed my mind after seeing SSR.

    Re: Heide Park | Unknown | B&M Wing Coaster I suddenly notice there are circles on the track spine for each tie, which kind of remind me of Giovanola track. Anyone has an idea what those are for?

    There has been rumours for some time that a mack coaster be built for a new park in Shandong, China. After however Penglai Happy Kingdom, which the rumour originally pointed to, only got a knockoff slc, this project seems to be considered dead. Until recently this suddenly popped up in Qihe...

    Kings Island | Banshee | B&M Invert

    Re: Kings Island | "Banshee" | Mahoossive B&M Invert I know this has been brought up more times than the coaster inverts, but we are looking at a world's first element which is more than 10 years old. The unheartlined barrel roll of RCT. It also seems to me that they mistakenly put an invert...

    Green Intamin track sited in Ohio

    ^Double spine Intamin hyper track can. And as far as I am aware, when an Intamin coaster uses the double spine track, it uses it throughout the whole layout. IMO we can rule out Intamin if said track is polygonal instead of double spine. Unless some park in the US is getting sort of a...

    Heide Park | Flug Der Dämonen | B&M Wing Coaster

    Re: Heide Park 2014 Don't they already have Kraken though? I mean actually, I never understood in the first place why B&M invented the wing trains when they already have the dive machine trains. Sure the wing trains are more flat and can go through narrower keyholes, but I can't think of any...
