CCG2 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 ^ Just wait till the park moves to Woodstock. Woodstock is the park's third location. Niagara Falls has always been the new home of Canada's Wonderland... No love for Marineland? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 You don't see any potential risk in flying high tension cables and shards of metal? Not when the place the cable breaks is oh, 200ft BELOW me. And another hundred feet or more from any foot traffic. There is no safety concerns from a cable lift breaking. Only concerns are on cable LAUNCHes as seen with the snaps where the people got shards. But thats a completely different type of break. MF is only going 22mph. Not 122.

PCW_Nut Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I think one thing for sure can be said about Leviathan, and that is it will definitely add an amazing visual as guests are coming into the park. If you come from the right side of the lot, you will literally have to walk by and under this beast in order to get into the park. Also because of its location, as you can see from some of my previous photos, its going to be a coaster photographer's wet dream come true with all the angles you can get of it.

harper83087 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Levi's coming along great!!! The hill after the barrel roll looks like it could be a spot of rare beemer ejector air That is, of course, if the don't murder it with trims.

Philrad71 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 ^ I was wondering the same thing....that overbanked turn and then that bunny hop afterwards could be outrageous if they they don't trim the crap out of the turn. I will say that even though I agreed that this coaster is probably the most overhyped for 2012, seeing these pictures is starting to make me really wonder if I'm wrong...PLEASE prove me wrong B&M!

Dragon Khan Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Taking into consideration this hill is very elongated, I would think it's more fated to deliver sustained floater (as opposed to sudden ejector). The proof of the receipe will be in the tasting, for all the lucky riders on Leviathon tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is like comparing apples and oranges, lordy. why dont you shut up and i will shut up. that help you. What are you 14? Jeez. You don't see any potential risk in flying high tension cables and shards of metal? Not when the place the cable breaks is oh, 200ft BELOW me. And another hundred feet or more from any foot traffic. There is no safety concerns from a cable lift breaking. Only concerns are on cable LAUNCHes as seen with the snaps where the people got shards. But thats a completely different type of break. MF is only going 22mph. Not 122. What about the people on the ground, the people on the CP+LE Railroad? I mean it is not enough to let me say no I am not going to ride, because MF is my favorite ride, but you don't see these sort of questionable safety issues on the B&M rides. There has not been a single safety risking malfunction on a B&M that I know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 How are people comparing the ride experiences of 2 rides that haven't even opened yet? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom497 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I just don't understand whats wrong with all of u. Its funny how u ask questions that have already been answered and u guys have brought up the trim brake thing again..."...As long as they don't murder it with trims...". Get it straight!!! Trim brakes will be put on both airtime hills!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intimidator305 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) ^ Some B&M trims are hardly noticable while some are quite strong (Intimidator at Carowinds). Nobody will really be able to tell until they actually ride the ride to see how hard they actually "slow" down the train. Speaking of Intimidator at Carowinds, Leviathan just looks like an epic version of that alright hyper. However, I do feel like these low turns/gradual hills is what will make Leviathan stand out from your typical B&M hyper.

Cyber.Fiber Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 ^ Behemoths trims skim the train on the second airtime hill 70% of the time. It usually is flying through the course. Let's hope leviathan gets the same treatment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCG2 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 ^ Behemoths trims skim the train on the second airtime hill 70% of the time. It usually is flying through the course. Let's hope leviathan gets the same treatment... Oh my god, if i could get the same amount of that floater airtime you receive on Behemoth on Leviathan, then that would be unreal. Let's hope Claude or Walter is reading this right now and will make the trims feel non-existant I have a feeling that trims will either moderately brake the trains (if its a full load) or not at all (small load) considering the 182 ft. airtime hill is higher than the 164 ft. barrell roll. But hey, that's just me. I'm not an engineer . Oh, and Behemoth seems to still pick up airtime on the 3rd and 4th airtime hills when it's been trimmed 30% of the time. I love that coaster .

rollin_n_coastin Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) I would say that on Behemoth, the trims work as they're supposed to. Barely noticeable or not even on, unless the train is really flying through the course. I would even say that on many days, the airtime is more ejector than floater, so much so that I pushed my lap bar down at least another click after really feeling like I was going to fly out. The ride can be relentless, in an awesome way. I hope Leviathan will carry on some of those ride characteristics.

SaweetDude04 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 If it's anything like MF (drop, overbank turn/barrel roll, 180+/- ft. hill), then the trim most likely won't be that strong. With a longer train and no trims, MF provides decent floater air time over its 180ft hill, so I'm expecting we will see the same with Leviathan.

Considering there was no snow and it was pretty warm today I wonder if they have that next big airtime hill done Can't wait for the next update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
