Jaykethekid Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 ^ Saving your butt - [youtu_be]https://youtu.be/uhejatkbnLg[/youtu_be] HOLY FLIPPING CRAP!!!! I can already see the showers of vomit raining down on people of it stays that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIMtationX Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I'm hoping adjustments are made as well, because those spins look way too ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParcMan Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 What!? That spinning looks flipping amazing! It reminds me of a Zipper. I really hope that the spinning stays like it is in the video! I was honestly hoping for flippage of this magnitude, but didn't get my hopes up. I wonder how the spinning will differ with riders (weights, height, empty seats, etc.)? And it looks like each row is independent from its opposing side, which is an awesome bonus! Great job S+S and SFFT! Please don't tame this beast!

rcjp Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I'm hoping adjustments are made as well, because those spins look way too ridiculous. Yes, maybe they're just trying some options. While a ride like that could be fun I doubt most guests would enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadster Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 The magnetic plates that the fins pass through are adjustable so as to provide you with a smooth, non-violent ride. Keep in mind that the final fin placements were just made a few days ago and that it will take some time to tweak the trains. You are guaranteed to flip at least 6 times but could be more depending on how fat or skinny you and your riding partner are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThemeParkJunkie51290 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I thought everyone would be happy that it's spinning insanely. I love it! I think theme park junkies in Cali would love to switch this out with Green Lantern since some are saying Batman is spinning too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boardwalkbullet91507 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I feel that with more weight in the seats that they wont spin as violently, but then again I could be wrong. Very excited for this, it looks amazing! Not sure if they're going for a less flippy ride on one side, but after the raven turn and double up there's a magnetic fin only on one side. I'm sure it's intentional, but it stood out to me. Anyone know more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianparkfan Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 ^Yeah, a full train should calm the spinning somewhat. It's the exact reason why the new generation zippers aren't as good... Heavier cages, therefore slower spinning. What!? That spinning looks flipping amazing! It reminds me of a Zipper. I really hope that the spinning stays like it is in the video! I was honestly hoping for flippage of this magnitude, but didn't get my hopes up. I wonder how the spinning will differ with riders (weights, height, empty seats, etc.)? And it looks like each row is independent from its opposing side, which is an awesome bonus! Great job S+S and SFFT! Please don't tame this beast! Agreed. While I think the spinning will be dampened somewhat, I hope it's not by much. I'd assume it'll eventually be similar to the spinning found on the prototype model that Robb rode a while back (can be found on TPR's channel).

cfc Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 It does look as insane as Insane at Grona Lund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azombi Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 so i see ya grabbed the video i took of batman ride, cool! my son was asking me if they were putting the brakes while going through the raven drops. I would have posted video sooner but this place has a habit of ignoring newbies to the sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadster Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 ^ I PM'd you earlier, did the alert not pop up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azombi Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 na I didn't get anything. I looked around a bit to see about posting videos here, but didn't see anything about it. I didn't want to post it and cause problems here thats all. lol. I was hoping I wouldn't get a nasty response from six flags to take it down immediately etc....for spoiling the surprise of a full video of the ride. SFFT hadn't posted a video yet of the entire ride , thats why I didn't post it here. But its all good. I'm a lover not a fighter. I didn;t get my phone out fast enough to catch the ride going through the lifting process, it took quite a while for it to get to the top of the lift hill though.

bert425 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 is this the one on their site? [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] I love the way the woman watching on the first cycle says "no way" (it appears there are dummies in the seats of this one). . but in the 2nd cycle says "oh HELL no" LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilmoreISnAZN Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Oh my god! Those magnetic fins really make those seats spin friggin crazy! That looks absolutely INSANE in the best way possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyberdyne-systems Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I'm going to ride B:TR during the golden season passholder preview next Saturday. After seeing these videos, I'm a bit nervous now...I can handle spinning, but damn!! I'm sure they'll get it well under control before then, though, and if they don't, well then who knows! Maybe this intense spinning could be really fun! Always stay optimistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loco Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Are those dummies even filled? I saw testing with no dummies and the spinning was pretty much the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBrylczyk Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I'm just throwing this out there, but they have got to get that spinning under control. OK, seriously, what the heck is with all you people? I thought we were coaster enthusiasts here. I'm disappointed in all of you who have said the spinning needs to be brought under control. For shame.

ArizonaGuy Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I couldn't imagine Six Flags letting it spin as much as it is in the video posted on here a little earlier. I'm thinking they're going to adjust it a bit before it opens. I'd say it's going to be a fight between "it doesn't spin enough" vs. "it spins way too much" so I'm looking forward to see how it ends up for opening day.

Ducky dude Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 The spinning will be perfect by opening. I mean, how many coasters have we all been skeptical about before they opened. Am I right, Or, Am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
