CP Maverick

You can, but why would you want to? A straight drop is very likely more thrilling to most people, especially if that drop is near vertical.

I can't really think of many things you would put directly after a MCBR besides a drop. I mean, the drop is kind of what gives the coaster it's speed back after a MCBR slows the train down. If this were Intamin, they could put a launch after the MCBR... If the MCBR were not already 130+ft off the ground. I'd assume B&M puts a second almost vertical drop after the MCBR on Dive Machines because you know... the coaster is a DIVE MACHINE... and Vertical Drops are kind of what Dive Machines are all about. Things more interesting than another vertical dive: A rollover into a dive loop, a steep swooping drop with a tight transition at the top, a double down. There's three and I'm not even a roller coaster designer. Most importantly, none of these things would require a full stop at the MCBR. B&M would go a long way towards making these already short rides feel more substantial by not deviding them in half. Imagine a lower MCBR with no stop, a steep drop with lots of floater air, into a series of ground-level switchbacks (with a tunnel or two). Now there's the start of a real second half. I think you misunderstand what midcourse safety brakes are there for. You need to design the ride as if the ride does come to a complete stop, and then allow for some added velocity. In this case, a dive on a dive coaster is a good thing. Your suggestions are fitting for other coaster types.

They also have a single piece of track to install between the turn and the brakes before they finish today.

Some parks are affected most by local trends, some by regional or national trends. Which scale affects kings island the most?

Aren't the parks run independent of each other? Additions will come when it is effective for the park.

Make-believe time. If Kings Island were to install a giga that used the terrain and had a lot of low ground-hugging maneuvers through the woods, would that take away from The Beast and it's popularity?

"You"

The original renderings have the line entering near Raptor's cobra roll, and exiting near Blue Streak.

"Most people" probably don't realize there are rollercoaster manufacturers.

As much as I love Maverick (to the point that I used the name before the coaster did), I definitely hate lines more. I struggle to find anything worth waiting more than a half-hour for.

As I can't find any official images for Ouija 2 (2016) I will continue to the next letter... Pete's Dragon (2016) or is it (1977)

Well..... she's not wrong... I don't think it's that huge...

Nope. Those are all glorified mine trains.

The bottom of Valravn's 2nd vertical drop is being installed right now.

According to my release schedule, it comes out in April. Inferno (2016)

Here we go... Everybody Wants Some (2016)

The BFG (2016)

It would change the whole experience. Those long slow turns actually enhance the racing aspect of the ride.

Try living in the US or Canada today, and they still think Six Flags is only a park! But much less than before. I think there was about 30 SF parks at one point. So telling someone you went to "Six Flags Full Name" usually got the response of "we have that here too"

Try living in the US 10-15 years ago. No one seemed to understand "Six Flags" was a brand and not a park.
