Unknown Coaster on Intamin Website.

[MiniMike]

I went on the Intamin website and found these pictures as well as others on the Giga coaster page. I have not seen this coaster before and so I went on rcdb.com and looked up giga coaster and it said that there was only 1 in the world (Millennium Force). I have a funny feeling these pics are of the Intimidator305 but looks to realistic. Do you know what it is?

???????????????????

Must be a mistake on their website since Superman: Ride of Steel isn't a giga coaster, it's a mega coaster.

There are no rules about the mega/giga thing. Intamin tends to call theirs giga's, while B&M calls them mega's. Basically, a mega or giga (or hyper) coaster is a high steel coasters will lots of hills and no inversions.

If that is the case, which it probably is, don't you think they would classify more of there coasters under this classification?

^I guess they just put some random pictures in there, as there's a superman in the mega-coaster page (on the intamin site) as well.

I guess they are just putting random pictures there. Because the only two mega coasters in the world are MF and (Intimidator305).

They probably just put that there to make it look like they had done more than 1. They took it out of the Six Flags book *cough*
