Thats no inversion, the banking is only around 92*, but its turned on its side (vertical) so it seems like an inversion. If you play NL youll probably understand my point, but because your turning as your banking like that, your never upside-down. Its an illusion.

^ well it's a dam good illusion

 

Heres what I mean, the picture below is from the NL editor and the selected node is banked at 90*. However, if you look at the track compared to the ground it seems as if you are inverting (somewhat) though you indeed are only banked 90*. I hope you understand....?

You're wronk.

 

The max. "banking" of the "track" indeed seems to be 92*, BUT: neither these three inversions nor said "Stengel Dive" seem to be included in this "banking statistic".

 

If you only would look closer at the pic(s). It's all there & obvious!

(hint: how about that support holding up this element at the apex?)

I would call it an inversion, your legs are above your head and your upside down for a milli-sec.

 

Another good one is "Goliath" at Walibi World, this has a "Stengel Dive" simular type of element.

Im sure a picture of Mavvies last stengel with a train in it would settle the debate. Because after seeing Goliath with a train in its stengel, those people dont look close to inverting.

I class an inversion, as a peice of track that is rotated to 180* past the original riding position.

 

This 'element' I would call a Stengel Dive.

 

It looks alot like this:

>>Clicky<<

 

So Immelmann's aren't inversions? And neither are some cobra rolls? Neither of these inversions are inverted 180 degrees-that's a poor definition of inversion.

 

 

A better definition is 135 degrees, but that is still disputed by some people.
