Kolmården Discussion Thread
rcjp replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
First of all: welcome to the forum! That would be a great idea (and I'm sure one day RMC will probably do that) but right now we know nothing really so we will just keep speculating -

I'm not really the theming guy but that looks just awesome!! -
Six Flags Over Texas (SFOT) Discussion Thread
rcjp replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Still, that would mean that, by then, it won't be at SFMM anymore and I do find that a bit odd. By the way, the state that it pulls 4Gs. Now is this just a mistake or does it actually pull nearly 1 G less than the forwards version? I mean, I've heard people saying it feels less intense but that would be a massive difference. -
I think I never did it, really although I'm planning to do so soon When was the last time you got hit by something, while riding a coaster, that someone else lost.

^Interesting. I thought that due to the number of those backwards chassis they could only do one ride at a time. -
Kentucky Kingdom (SFKK, KK) Discussion Thread
rcjp replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I hadn't thought about that but now that I've re-watched the POV and offirde shots there might be something to that. Interesting... -

Granted, but they would take 500 hours to charge. I wish all elevators dropped like drop towers. -

I actually had though of this before too. But then I came to the conclusion that it would pretty much feel like and indoor dark coaster. -

^I wouldn't be surprised if one day someone came up with the gimmick of "the world's most compact coaster" -
Lagoon Discussion Thread

Any recent news about the new coaster? -
A fire breathing person. What's worse than every B&M becoming so rough that people would beg to be riding an SLC instead?

Nice shots! I quite like the look of that pretzel loop. Can't wait for some testing action! -
The Official TPR Video Thread!

It actually didn't look that bad for a looping togo. It appeared to have some nice Gs and pops of air. Anyway, glad you survived -
Busch Gardens Tampa Bay (BGT Discussion Thread)
rcjp replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^Interesting. I found both Bizarro and Raptor very smooth. Ok raptor may have that slight snap in the cobra roll and on the turn into the brake run but I don't consider that roughness, just a minor design flaw as, apart from that, it was perfect (at least when I rode it). As to bizarro, when I rode it in 2011 the was some roughness to be found on the climb into the MCBR: However, last summer, it appeared to be gone. About kumba, I haven't been on it but from what I've heard it has similar intensity to Dragon Khan which is my favourite ride and by far the most intense non inverted B&M I've been on. (also not rough) -
Holiday Park Discussion Thread
rcjp replied to devol4's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^But didn't superman stall just before the roll (where the still is no slope)? Because I think that the roll itself also has a slight slope as it is clear the trains gain speed while going through it. -
Busch Gardens Tampa Bay (BGT Discussion Thread)
rcjp replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Agree. Even rides that are supposed to be exact clones like the Batman ones sometimes have different intensities. I thought the one at SFGAdv was more intense than the one in Madrid, and they're the same (except for the number of cars). I also noticed that on Dragon Khan I went faster through the cobra roll than in any other B&M I've ridden. -
