^Sheikra does. It's not like the ones on the flyer, however, it's like TTD's where one train is behind the other.

^I'd say it's one of the loudest I've ever ridden. Wish every B&M was like that

Stunning picture! It almost doesn't look real.

I have no idea how much it would cost but if some complain it's rough (I haven't ridden it) while most really enjoy the layout, wouldn't it be nice to see RMC replacing the existing track with topper track maintaining the exact same layout?

So KK will have two small compact, twisty, airtime filled coaster by next year.

^I think that, with intamin's new lap bars, they're not planning to use OTSR anymore but I could be wrong.

Yes. No there is not doubt RMC never had an exclusive contract with six flags This looks really awesome! Can't wait to see how much airtime those "normal" hills will deliver.

I'm not a fan of that lift either but it's not like RMC only does that. Outlaw run looks perfectly "woodyish" except for one or two bits of steel in the inversions.

^Or when you change gear on your bike and you think it sounds like a B&M invert disengaging the lift hill.

^Now you can you here.

Exactly my thoughts. I actually rode KK before TTD so it's possible that has influenced the way I rank them but I don't think that's why I enjoy it more. Like you said, the OTSR didn't bother me, I could feel the extra speed (unlike the height) and, for some reason it just feels quite a bit more intense. It's one of the few rides that (when ridden in the front) made me go: "Holy f$#k! That was so intense!!" while TTD doesn't quite produce the same effect, for some reason (which I actually find odd as they are so similar)

^Haha, true. And then it would go like 299,9ft 299,99ft 299,999ft .... and on and on I don't really blame the GP for thinking fury is the tallest and fastest coaster in the world given how it was marketed.

^So twisstttyyyy!!

Storm runner. It surely is short but it's full of awesomeness!

Really exiting to follow the construction as it's not very usual to see a ride of this size getting built without knowing the layout.

^But it's not like there are two consecutive rolls, is it? I mean, between the end of the immelmann and the beginning of the zero G there's a small pullout where there is no rotation so I'm not really sure it makes any difference.

Not to go too off-topic, Robb, but what is it about Shambhala that separates it from the rest of the B&M hypers/gigas? I've watched the videos and to me, I can't really tell any differentiating factors from other ones. In my opinion, nothing. I have no idea why it ranked so much higher than the others. I definitely prefer nitro. I won't say it's much better but I have no doubts I'll rank it higher. Shambhala does have a great first drop but the airtime provided by the hills isn't as good or solid (in my opinion) as nitro's plus it has a terrible ending with a MCBR so near the end. It surely is a pretty good ride and one that everyone can enjoy but the stronger air, the forceful helix and that great triple hill ending on nitro are better.

^Holy sh#t!

^Too much MCBR braking!

^Ok that first one goes beyond GP territory. I mean, it's not only a matter of knowing the names of each coaster element as EVERYONE knows a barrel roll, wherever it is found, does involve going upside down.

^True. Just noticed that

^But the rail ties don't really look like those on the bigger dive machines either. Look. The top of the rail ties almost looks like a hyper/giga But of course they may change the track design slightly over time.

^Haha

I believe so. If it really does, then that's the one I pick.

^^Looks good. Now if they could get rid of those vests turning the restraints into lap bars...
