TheStig Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Okay first off, this isnt going to be the smallest B&M Hyper to be built, La Ronde's is going to be 175 feet tall. And Goliath at SFOG is standing a whopping 2 feet, a whole 24 inches, shorter than Raging Bull and it's first drop is only a foot shorter than La Ronde's Goliath. I'm sure that it will employ the "fence guard" over the areas where pedestrians will be standing/driving under the ride much like whats around SheiKra's break runs and around the turn before the holding break. And another thing: This year at Coaster Con I rode Raging Bull about 40 times in two days due to ERT. On one of my rides, they trim on the camelback never touched the train AT ALL. Now it may suprise you or defy phisics, but I felt LESS airtime with the trim off then I did while it was on. I was sitting in row 8 during this ride, and for the next ride as well in the same seat and that time the trim hit us. So granted that the trim makes you feel like your getting less airtime, but its generating some pretty massive floaters on those types of hill.

Shockwave Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 If my holiday to Florida was a week longer, I'd be driving up there to ride this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterCrazy Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I went to the park this morning to take some updated pictures of the construction of Goliath. Since I haven't been to the park in about two weeks I was surprise to see that the third hill is almost done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildMouse Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Mmm, airtime... We need one of these in the UK. Either that or a clone of Superman:RoS will do very nicely SCR39.BMP The Rapids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockwave Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Yeah, we can dream. I'm only missing this ride by 4 days, but I'm looking forward to the first reports. At least flights to airports near Europa Park are pretty cheap. SCR39.BMP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
