Did they drop something heavy on that drop?

 

[Clrun4]

Well the drop is just as ****ing weird as on the other water coasters.

Also what's an EGF turn?

Yeah, the drop is a bit flat, isn't it ?

An EGF Turn is an element first appeared on Expedition Ge Force (from where it takes the name) and basically is an s turn on the top of an airtime hill. It's quite pleasant, as you combine the feeling of the twist, and great airtimes.

This is the figure on the center.

 

[Hixee]

Ah, a "twisted airtime hill" in normal parlance, then.

 

[Clrun4]

Yeah indeed. EGF Turn is an unofficial term.

Let's call that an enthusiast's way of talk

Whats up with the iffy profiling? I've just circled what looks like some sort of distortion in the trackwork.

That's what we've literally just been talking about... Most Mack water coasters have that on the main drop.

Also I've always called an EGF turn a twisted airtime hill, it's not even a turn is it really.

I think the term EGF Turn is mostly used in france then haha

Also RCS is putting in place the track for the turn before the drop


Good news is there will be no trims before the drop !

That's surprising, I thought Mack always liked to put a block brake before the main drop.

More supports !


So it will go:
Lift (between 35m and 40m)
Twisted drop to the ride
Small twisted airtime hill
Uphill turn to the left
Drop

Seems really short but at least it's a custom layout.

 

[TheCoasterCruiser]

Pretty sure there'll be a block section on the straight piece of track before the drop. - It might not slow it down though.
Shaping on the drop is so ugly, but that's Mack Water Coasters for you.

 

[Us3rmane]

The straight part is too short to have a trim i think

 

[Jcoasters]

Maybe they aren't as worried about capacity here.

A member of the Coastersworld discord reproduced Krampus Expedition on No Limit! The size is about the right one.

 

[CanobieFan]

Yeah indeed. EGF Turn is an unofficial term

So shouldn't it be the SROS Turn, since it did it... first?

Certainly speeding ahead, that place is becoming Europa mk2 with all the Mack installations

 

[Us3rmane]

RCS be quick, nice banking on that turn and it looks like to have some good airtime on the hill before it ! Also the twisted airtime hill should be where the small hill is according to the NL2 screen from earlier, maybe it's the angle that make it look like that

 

[CrashCoaster]

That's a poor excuse for an "EGF turn".
