jjune4991 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 How about this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathbydinn Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 BUMP!! Say hello to ghetto supports.  Oh lord, what coaster is that?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyEisentrout Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 ^^I would say that those supports are themeing as well as support. Â Also, I believe that Michigan's Adventure's Corkscrew was Arrow's first corkscrew model to have those supports for the corkscrews instead of arch type supports.

DiveMachine Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I've always thought RMT@SFGadv's random wooden supports looked weird  This is from GAH: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I actually always liked those lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johncolon91 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I think RMT's supports are weird as well but I think it would look weirder with all steel supports in that particular section of the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie200330 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 ^ Agreed, with the color track and wood supports, it just kinda blends in with the natural scenery and doesn't look all gaudy and outlandish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitro4ever Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) http://rcdb.com/468.htm?p=4846The famous Great Bear support! The one with footers on both sides of the lake is strange too. Edited February 26, 2011 by nitro4ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitro4ever Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Â The Great Nor'easter - Morey's Piers Wildwood, NJ Â The supports are strange because its built over 2 waterslides and a log flume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Coaster Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 ^I was hoping someone would post that! The Nor-Easter has some of the STRANGEST supports I've seen. Â Gotta give it to Wildwood though, they did quite well with how they constructed a huge Vekoma invert above 3 different rides. Â Â It also provides some SICK leg-chopper effects.

Sir Coaster Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 ^That second one looks EXACTLY like Space Mountain's layout... Â Â Â Â Joker's Jinx, along with the other "Crazy Cobra" coasters sport these strange supports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitro4ever Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Look at the support thats partially hidden behind the trees, it has a footer on each side of the stream. Is it just me or is that streetlight attached to the support? That picture speaks for its self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandonR Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Is it just me or is that streetlight attached to the support? Â Uhh it looks like the streetlight and supports are two totally different entities to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B&MIntaminGCI Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I don't know what coaster this is but I found it on google. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kooky Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 i found this support on the Matterhornblitz in EuropaPark very odd looking: source:http://www.coaster-junkies.de/Rides/MatterhornblitzEuropaparkGER/Matterhornblitz204.jpg  and the old EuroStar, had many intresting looking too: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffguy Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Just a few leg choppers there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitro4ever Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 The supports there are so bizarre-o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterStreak Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I always thought the 4th Dimension coasters (X2 and Eejanaika) had super odd supports. I know its because of the different train type, but they are still strange. Â Source for pics: RCDB The "new" version of the outside raven turn supports. 1. the inside raven turn has extra brackets on the outside of the back support. (top left) 2. the "old" outside raven turn supports. 3. the funky supports right before the final brake in the right side of the pic, half way up .

tiger01 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Rage has a funny looking support right before the second inversion. Never noticed it before before I looked on Rcdb.com Here is the link. Â And it seems that Adventure Island has named it's new Kiddi Koasta!

A.J. Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Great Bear's supports are weird because Hersheypark didn't want the coaster's supports to interfere with the stream that runs under the gaggle of coasters (and Coal Cracker). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoasterStreak Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 ^ anybody know why intamin chose to use their square supports and tubular supports so interchangably on cheetah hunt? Was there any rhyme or reason to where they used one or another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
