Gutterflower Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Hey all just came across this video on youtube. thought it would interest everyone. Bandit at Yomouri Land running with backwards trains. Im not sure when they do this but i hear its on certain days each year. quite a cool change though.

PhishyBrewer Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Ghey! I was actually looking forward to riding Bandit in a couple weeks, but that just looks retarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyrider06 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I think thats pretty cool going backwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheArchfiend Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 That ride looked weak as all hell from a coaster element standpoint. One bunny hill, and every other hill was a turn. Looked pathtic for air time. Speed didn't look to impressive either and how can it keep decent speed with 6 billion turns to constantly slow the train down. Oh, and that lift looked like the slowest lift in the history of coasters. Other than all that... the ride looked awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvcoasterguy Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Sorry, but I don't think a coaster of this type would be particularly comfortable backwards... especially one with OSTR's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I really liked Bandit! Sure it wasn't an airtime machine, but it's mostly a really big "mine train." It's never supposed to be anything other than that. Not sure how I'd like it backwards. It wasn't really rough when I rode it, but I can see backwards might be a bit...."weird." Anyway, I really did like this ride! --Robb ps. Why....oh WHY must people include full lift hills in their POVs?!?! Did we really NEED to see 42 seconds of lift hill???? /rant.

Satoshi Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 wow! i really rode that thing last year and backward version was so great though it's not going to let me feel windy! yay! the best Togo ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verticalzero Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 "Racer" at KI was great fun backwards when I went on it. Bandit looks a fun coaster to ride. Is this the best coaster from "Togo"..? How about run TTD, Thunderhead or MS backwards I wish BPB turned one of it's train's / cars backwards for a while on the "Nash", "Big Dipper" or "Wild Mouse". That would be amazing.

steel Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 ps. Why....oh WHY must people include full lift hills in their POVs?!?! Did we really NEED to see 42 seconds of lift hill???? /rant. Oh, please, Robb, don't you know? They want to make your experience as real as possible! That, or they just HATE YOU PERSONALLY. Yeah. That's probably it. //just as annoyed as Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 The best thing about going backwards is that White Caynon just keeps getting further and further away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
