Jew Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Where does this information come from? #1 and 2 plus the woodie will be on the mini Korea trip! However, they should be switched around. Eagles Fortress was amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemesis-storm Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Is Eagle fortress a suspended swinger? Yes, Also possibly the best one Arrow ever made !. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 ^Definitely the best Arrow ever made!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I still can't believe two of the best Arrows I've been on are in South Korea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingbooba Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 They all looked awesome, but French Revolution looked the coolest to me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downunder Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Why does South Korea have to get all the cool stuff, T-Express is looking like coaster perfection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pagemaster_b Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Definately Eagle Fortress over Atlantis. The swing time and speed on that ride is absolutely incredible. Everland is the best park in South Korea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmerleeberry Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Those were sure sexy pictures of South Korea's roller coasters. Too bad they are in South Korea instead of the good ole USA. But at least at my homepark of Kings Dominion they have coasters such as Volcano - The Blast Coaster and the upcoming Dominator while the classic Rebel Yell is always a must ride for me. "Those coasters in South Korea: I'm in love! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJJman Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I'll agree with the others: Eagle Fortress is quite simply the best Arrow I've ever been on, and sits comfortably in my top 10 of all steel coasters! Yes, it is THAT good!!! JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 For reference purposes...Imagine Big Bad Wolf or Ninja, only 20 MPH faster, a higher swinging angle, and airtime!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildStangAlex Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 For reference purposes...Imagine Big Bad Wolf or Ninja, only 20 MPH faster, a higher swinging angle, and airtime!!! Airtime on an Arrow Suspended? That's like unheard of! AWESOME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanks4me05 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 ^^ Holy sweet mother of moses (yep, I'm a jew, as well) I want to go to Everland! Hey, michael2lee, do you have any more pictures of the coasters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absimilliard Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Eagle Fortress... AMAZING RIDE! It actually sits at number 1 on my steel coaster ballot for this year's poll! French Revolution ahead of Phaethon? Huh? Where's Horror Express/Black Hole Scramble? That ride was actually pretty good for a Vekoma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PURE Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 For reference purposes...Imagine Big Bad Wolf or Ninja, only 20 MPH faster, a higher swinging angle, and airtime!!! Not to burst anyone's Eagle Fortress bubble or anything, but according to rcdb, Ninja hits 55 and Big Bad Wolf 48 while Eagle Fortress is written as only going 40. I'm just saying. That doesn't mean there can't be airtime and more swinging, but maybe being in the trees makes it seem that much faster. I'm a big fan of Arrow Suspended coasters, hopefully someday I'll be able to get on all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 ^That's why I said you have to imagine a ride experience like that. Because that's what it feels like, regardless of what the actual top speeds might be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 And according to several engineers, Eagle Fortress is going 10-15mph faster than it was designed (aka listed at 40mph now is much more like 50-55mph!!!) It's apparently tearing itself apart in the process and is on its way out. Better sign up for the Korea trip and come see what we're all talking about before it's too late.

Absimilliard Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 I wondered if it ever had a trim brake on the first drop? Going up the lift, I noticed some brake brackets on the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike541x Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Eagle Fortress and French Revolution look awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loefet Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 It's apparently tearing itself apart in the process and is on its way out. Better sign up for the Korea trip and come see what we're all talking about before it's too late.Too bad to hear that, since it was probably one the rides I enjoyed the most, especially the last ride I got when we were there. Good that I will be joining you for the Korea trip later this year. Maybe T-Express is one of the coasters that will take it's place. But I miss Fantasia Special and Black Hole Express on that list to make it complete and Black Hole 2000 isn't all that exiting compared to those.
