A.J. Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Do steam locomotives that act like dragons high-five each other on top of a hill as well? This coaster is amazing and I haven't even ridden it yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cal1br3tto Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 This coaster is amazing and I haven't even ridden it yet! Well, that's one way to look at it. Â Seriously, I know it's a different country, but that name is so confusingly bad it almost makes me feel queasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterfreak101 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 ^Thank you! Â This actually looks a lot better than I thought it was going to be when the layout was released. Now just waiting to see how long it holds up with those PTCs running on it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 I hope I like this, but I haven't ha a good track record with GG coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singemfrc Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 That looks amazing. If I ever make it to China to ride DC I'm definitely going to have to ride this too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legoguy1395 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 It looks great, but, I am predicting that it will be one of the most brutal wooden coasters in the world if they don't get the timberliners on there- fast. I can already see some of the damage the PTC's have done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GayCoasterGuy Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 That looks really fun! ^What damage are you referring to?  The track on the last turn looks a bit gnarly. Unless that's just a lot of dirt/grease spill-over.  I have not ridden a Timberliner yet, but sat in one at Holiwood Nights a couple years ago. They were a little awkward; the sides kind of left me with no where to put my arm. Of course, I'm a big guy 6-1/230, so I'm sure they are comfy for most average-sized folks.  I talked to a fellow coaster geek in depth about his experience on Timberliners. He wasn't a big fan, and said that if the track gets rough (on a coaster they put Timberliners on) it's not going to be comfortable as the padding is hard/molded (as opposed to nicely stuffed/upholstered padding). But don't they have built-in shock absorption? I guess everyone will have a different opinion.  Anyone remember the 80s when everyone was all about PTC in fear of receiving Morgans on your favorite woodie? Riverside Cyclone, Colossus, Texas Cyclone... Of course, that was before the horrible PTC ratchet bars were born. That ruined plenty of woodies as well.

megalyte Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 ^ The only woodie where Morgan trains have done a great job is on SCBB's Giant Dipper! Single position lap bar= Airtime! Not to mention it is really smooth too. Any other woodie I've been on with Morgan trains was awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 The ride looks great, hopefully the upkeep will keep it in good condition...but who am I kidding. :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Mutts Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 The ride looks very cool and that High 5 element looks awesome! However, due to its height, curves, and trains, I see this coaster tearing itself apart in 2-3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
