speedracer Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 No longer standing, but I thought this was one of the more creative backyard-type coaster built, be sure to check out the videos on the right, X's spinning ain't got nothing on this vomit comet! http://www.speedcult.com/speedcult/coaster.php Complete with real in your face fire efx! http://www.speedcult.com/speedcult/coaster_fire.php
Loco Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 LOL!.....thats insane! I cannot imagine myself flipping head-over-heels that fast! It looks totally unsafe as well!
vjgx Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Now that just looks plain wrong... But it is pretty funny to watch people ride it!
exzantia Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I wouldn't go on that thing if my life depended on it (what would be the point, it would just kill me). I wonder what the rider:vomit ratio is.
kenshinmac Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Wait so it has shown up multiple times at Burning Man? I remember seeing this years ago linked from some other site. Based on what they said about how it was built I figured it was a one off.
man Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 I dont know if I would ride it or not. It looks like you would die if it went wrong or at least break your shoulders. I would probably give it one ride if it was free
speedracer Posted January 11, 2007 Author Posted January 11, 2007 I wonder what the rider:vomit ratio is. Pretty high I imagine considering a majority of the attendees at this particular event are guaranteed to be on one or more mind altering substances .
rollermonkey Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 ^ Yeah but MJ has known properties to reduce the vomit reflex.
viking86 Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Talk about rolling trash can! Even Colossus @ Thorpe Park sounds nicer than this ride...
speedracer Posted January 11, 2007 Author Posted January 11, 2007 ^ Yeah but MJ has known properties to reduce the vomit reflex. True (not that I would know! 8) ), still wouldn't want to be the clean up guy for this ride. With all that spinning, would be a pain to hose everything down! (wait, there's no plumbing out there, so I guess just air dry? ).
the sound Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 That thing looks evil! It sort of looks like a Hybrid Zipper-Slingshot-Halfpipe. Wierd
easytoremember Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 If and only if that counted as a credit, then I would ride it.
speedracer Posted January 12, 2007 Author Posted January 12, 2007 That thing looks evil! It sort of looks like a Hybrid Zipper-Slingshot-Halfpipe. Wierd Don't leave out human BBQ!
IceDragon Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I think I'm in love. me too... Robb... fancy getting a POV for us? lol
