FaithPlus1 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 All I can say after all the construction, pics, and now reports is, SWEEET!" I wanna ride me some Iron Rattler:) SFFT deserves this. In fact, I hope Six Flags parks around the country get some love like this!
BigBomer Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Poor Gerstlauer, they make amazing trains with amazing seats and no one uses them because you're up out of your seat the whole time.
jedimaster1227 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Glad to hear that the ride turned out so amazingly as we'd all expected! This is just one more Rocky Mountain Construction coaster I'm dying to try out that unfortunately, I'm not sure I'll get the chance to experience anytime soon.
TyRush Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Great to hear it was great! Also glad to see the Boston ribbon on the train
Sportsdude360 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 I'll be down in July to ride this amazing coaster. Can't wait!!!!! Having ridden NTAG many times, I know what to expect.
SFFTbajam Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 I'll be posting some sweet POV/Reverse POV soon
XYZ Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 I'll be posting some sweet POV/Reverse POV soon I can't wait! Iron Rattler looks amazing.
SFFTbajam Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) ENJOY!!! Edited April 19, 2013 by robbalvey
Zcev5454 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 ^ that's awesome! The first drop looks like it has major airtime!
ArizonaGuy Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Looks amazing. Can't wait to see more. There's the Facebook link I viewed it from. I wasn't able to view the embedded link above.
Tmcdllr Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Looks like it loses a lot of speed when it comes out of the quarry.
johnnyknottsville Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 That's looks like it is total kick A$$!!! That first drop and that drive off the cliff and through the tunnel just looks Where is the picture of the dude with the jizz face when you need it lol I have to get to SFFT to ride that beast!!!
RideofSteel Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Wow! That looks amazing! The trains look so open...awesome!
SuperShawn Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Just holly wow!!! I'm going to be just a little nervous/anxious at the top of that lift.
rcjp Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) Looks cool. However, it looks like it loses some speed after the zero-g-roll or at least it seems slower than the offride test run videos I saw. I guess it must be 'cause the train was kind of empty. I can't wait to see it running with full load! Edited April 19, 2013 by rcjp
jfruge Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 This is such a wonderful conversion. I think RMC may be working to outdo themselves the next few seasons. The length looks to be perfect to keep trains from stacking, and keep riders entertained. The first drop seems to be just incredibly intense.
TyRush Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Looks good so far! And you cant really tell speed from a pov. Skyrush looked slow in its first pov, and it hauls. So im sure this hauls
Wes Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Looks fantastic!!! And what a weird way to rig up a POV camera.
Simipour'sTrainer Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Amazing video! Love how they slow the train down at the top of the lift hill before the big drop!
JJLehto Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) Wicked. I was wrong in thinking Outlaw Run may be better, that looks just awesome. That first AT hill < 3 It does seem to really slow down after the roll, but OR also seemed kinda slow in POV, but with people on it we saw how fast it really moved. Also Skyrush and New Texas Giant, none wowed me in POV but was waaay wrong! Edited April 19, 2013 by JJLehto
robbalvey Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) Looks cool. However, it looks like it looses some speed Edited April 19, 2013 by robbalvey
robbalvey Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Not only does the loose/lose thing annoy me, but it also is highly frustrating the amount of people complaining about this video. Two things... 1. The park did something REALLY AWESOME by releasing this video, but... 2. All some of you guys are doing is proving why more parks don't release "test run" videos, because people don't quite understand what they are looking at. Of COURSE the ride is going to go faster than it's initial test run with water dummies. Of COURSE they are going to release a full POV, not an "edited" one. There are things called "test runs" and "tweak and adjust" and if you're not familiar with these terms, then please don't complain about the video. It's fine to ask questions, but it just frustrates me when people watch a test run video, and assume it's the final product. It was really cool that the park released this video. And all I'm trying to do is educate those that don't understand what they are looking at so the parks don't read this feedback and go "Wow, maybe we shouldn't release cool videos like this anymore if all people are going to do is complain..." Understand where I'm coming from? Good.
ArizonaGuy Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 ^^ I agree. The video was great. I'm just looking forward to seeing more footage soon.
notudon Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Video looks Awesome. I am going there this Saturday and bummed it won't be open. My one trip to the park this year, oh well.
