ilrider Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Wow, that zero G stall is going to be amazing/weird! Now I see why they call it a "stall." I realize it will probably go a bit faster through it with a full train and after more testing. Thanks so much for posting the video. Yes, it is pretty much impossible to get the full circuit on video due to the trees, but I am sure people will post more vids of different spots on the ride in coming days. Think I have to go to the park tomorrow to see this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny B Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 That drop...... WOW! Your going to fly out of your seat in that back car. Even though the car will be moving quicker with people, I think the POV footage from September last year really gives a good impression that -------- there's going to be some "sick", "rad", "totally cool" hang time on that zero-g-stall.

Password121 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I give Six Flags a ton of credit for realize the opportunity with RMC and investing so heavily in their projects. I truly hope a Six Flags park near me gets a custom RMC wooden coaster next year. SFGadv 2015? I can only hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandallDuell Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Man, that first run has to be incredibly gratifying for the construction crew still there...right? I assume the group photo the other day was right before some of the guys headed back west, I just wonder how many will still be around when they start putting people on those trains. Seeing that stall in action really does make you realize JUST how insane this coaster is (seeing it in the animation is one thing, real life??!? WOW!)

neil009 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I love all the squealing you can hear from the train, reminds me of El Toro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goooose Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Look at the speed through the break run!!! There will for sure be negative gs in all rows. Relieved.. )))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glouthan Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 ^That airtime hill looks insane! Here are some stills I captured at the park that I thought I would share: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GayCoasterGuy Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I knew it would be quiet but that is really quiet! That's good; we'll be able to hear the screams clearer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefatman22 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Just watching the test run makes me want to ride it more. Is the construction crew done now? Or are they going to be there through the testing process to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterjunkie1975 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 It's great to see Goliath finally testing and I can't wait to see some POVs of this beast, Airtime and Hang time...what more could you ask for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Yay testing!! It's so quiet, I think maybe this is how RMC steel coaster is going to be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScreaminNewEngland Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 The ride looks amazing! It's just a shame that it's so short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojo19799 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Just watching the test run makes me want to ride it more. Is the construction crew done now? Or are they going to be there through the testing process to? I would imagine that the crew would stick around for testing, just to work out any "kinks" the ride may have. I know the ride will have to run for awhile before the state can sign off and before anyone can set foot in the train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the ride will have to run for awhile before the state can sign off and before anyone can set foot in the train. They still have to put up a support for the zero-g stall and they have to finish the last section of lift hill stairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAMTABSFGAm Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Where is the "magic seat" for demon to where if you sit there you get the most enjoyable ride experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 ^Perhaps a nearby bench? But, to be honest, I don't think Demon is all that bad--it simply isn't very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithPlus1 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Am I the only one that thinks people are going to be disappointed? Gosh I hope I'm wrong but I think most people's hype is based off the big drop and zero G. Doesn't seem to be much substance other than that. Sorry, I am being a negative nellie!

Lightning9SX Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I'm disappointed that I can't get there soon enough. Anyone know what fell off during the test run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gosh I hope I'm wrong but I think most people's hype is based off the big drop and zero G. Doesn't seem to be much substance other than that. Sorry, I am being a negative nellie! I see your points. I agree with the fact that it doesn't seem to offer much from a point of view, however it is all about the way it rides. Think each and every element of the coaster is probably going to be powerful, I'd rather have 6 powerful elements, as on Goliath, than some good some boring elements.
