And they posted equally great on-track POV photos as well:

Totally fantastic! Love the pacing, and those airtime hills look pretty solid the whole way through.

I realized this after the fact! :oops:
 
That overbanked turn after the airtime hill is just wild.

Looks like RMC have created another winner. Those guys really are in a league of their own.

The speed and pace is mostly constant throughout and I love the way it (almost) takes turns between inversions and airtime moments.

I did think it lost a bit of magic towards the end but on the whole, it's another RMC work of art.
 
As a fun comparison, this will be RMC's shortest coaster at 2,744 ft. Next shortest is Outlaw Run, at 2,937 ft., 193 ft. longer.

Gravity Group's Ravine Flyer II is also in the same neighborhood for length at 2,900 ft.
 
For those interested, UpStop has posted a second POV in 60 fps (the first POV was a 4K stream).

It still looks fab. <3

It's like a little baby RMC!
 
We have a first review!

Talked to my friend Nick today who knows somebody who's been on it. According to them, "nobody's prepared for that ride."

It's from a friend of a friend, but take it as you will. ;)

I honestly think this coaster is the "Sleeper of the year." Not much buzz about it cause RMC has bigger projects going on. But it definitely will get KK back on the map. I am planning on my first trip to KK this year. My last one was planned 2010 :(
 
Y'all know ECG has posted some videos too?
