Is it just me or is that an abnormally steep lift hill for a GCI?

 

[CanobieFan]

Anyone know how tall the Star Flyer is? Looks SFOT/SFNE style... wonder if this is taller than Orlando or not

Definitely looks steeper that most GCI's from that angle

I’m not sure on exact figures however it is advertised as tallest in the world.

The layout and lift hill are definitely contorted to fit into that spot (or whatever piece of land they were originally designed for at Six Flags). Looks different than most GCIs.

Was going to say. They say it’s the tallest in the world. Drove past today. And it does seem very tall!

That's never seen the tallest woodie in the world... It does look tall for a GCI, but I think even Wodan looks taller.

I had a look at the new GCI woodie design from IAAPA with the inversions and Infinity flyers, and I couldn't help but notice that also has a steeper lift hill, around the 45° mark. Perhaps this could be the first GCI to use Infinity flyers?

In fact now I think about it, how do we know this will be a GCI and not a GG?

Sorry. I meant the start flyer is the tallest in the world.

For a number of reasons. Behind the scenes GCI have said its theres. Its identical in layout to the Six Flags China one which was announced as a GCI too.

I'm wondering how this woody can beat the current world record...It doesn't look that tall or fast, at least for me.

Apparently this starflyer is around 143m tall which would make it the 2nd tallest behind Skyline park's newly opened 150m tall starflyer.

It isn't getting the height record. They were talking about the starflyer. The woodies record is apparently the most Airtime on a wooden coaster.

Could the record be "most airtime moments on a wooden coaster" rather than the actual number of seconds of sustained airtime? I mean it looks to be filled with lots of small bunny hills. I'm pretty sure Intamin confirmed Kondaa takes the steel coaster record in this regard.

Bollywood Parks Dubai will reopen on the 21 january, with its first coaster !

... but it won't be neither the GCI Wooden or the Mack PowerSplash, but Taxi #1, a Zamperla Family Gravity Coaster :

There is a Zamperla Family Gravity Coaster located 500m away from this one in Legoland, but a cred is a cred. Luckily they get some more unique coasters as well.

I was hoping to get down there for opening on Thursday but I’m not having much luck with the pr people.

The way you can tell is by the catwalks and the railings, on GCI they are around a 1 metre mark whereas on a GG it is a little bit shorter. And yes I heard a rumour that it is an Infinity Flyer coaster called Bombay Express.

 

[Dubaidave]

Here’s the info they sent me about the coaster.
