Bryce232 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Dragon Challenge (Dueling Dragons) - The only dueling B&M inverts. Not anymore :'( Vekoma Stingray in China The new Gravity Group woodie with the high-five element in China Cheetah Hunt's figure-eight element and its three launches. Leviathan being B&M's only giga. Montu for being the only B&M invert with 7 inversions Powder Keg at SDC has that transfer track that takes it from the station to the launch. Riddler's Revenge for actually having a custom B&M stand-up layout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirkFunk Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 One of the carnival companies in Ohio actually has a one of a kind coaster - its a shuttle coaster built by ARM with wing rider style seating. According to the internet, it sucks. Also, somewhere deep in Australia's back country or something lurks Cool And Fresh, SBF's most retarded creation with its beyond vertical first drop and mag brakes the whole way down.

Werner Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 He means this one, this is the Cool&Fresh. And it's one of the most crazy coaster i have ever done, at the fair in Rotterdam... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcdude Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Most roller coasters are unique in terms of layout or have unique elements, but there are relatively few that are unique by design. Here are a few one of a kind rides that immediately come to mind (both operating and defunct): Arrow Dynamics 4th Dimension: X2 Intamin AG Space Diver: Flashback Intamin AG Suspended Catapult Coaster: Volcano, The Blast Coaster Premier Rides Dueling LIM Shuttle Loop Coaster: Batman and Robin: The Chiller I'm sure there are plenty more, but these are the ones I usually think of as coasters that are unique by design.

A.J. Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Euro-Star is definitely a one-of-a-kind attraction. The only portable major inverted coaster no less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinTheAttendant Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Tranan at Skara Sommarland in Sweden. It's the only S&S Free Fly operating. It looks like a great concept, I'd love to see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megamatt Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Runaway Mine Train at M&D's was an obscure spinning coaster with a spiral lift hill made by Barbisan, called Jamming, which was later converted into a unique, but more conventional, mine train coaster with a straight lift hill. Also, Cyber Space at Grove Land and Galaxia at Wiener Prater are pretty odd, also made by Barbisan. Fish shaped, roofed cars, sort of like a Chance Toboggan, and a semi-enclosed track layout, kind of like Pirate's Cove or whatever that thing is in New Jersey by Wisdom Rides. Speaking of that, that Wisdom roller coaster Pirates Cove or whatever it was is a one of a kind, I think. Kind of pointless from TPR's POV, as well.

jakecallan Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 X/N0 Way Out, as it was the first backwards in the dark coaster and remains as the only one to date. TH13TEEN, The first roller coaster to feature a free-fall drop Ultimate, was the longest coaster in world when it opened and correct me if i am wrong but a lot of it was made in house.

bottom_feeder_13 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Steel Dragon 2000, only Morgan giga ever built, only giga with a 'traditional' out and back layout (Leviathan is too short to count). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal1br3tto Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I've been having a tough time with this question, even though it sounds simple enough. It seems like a lot of wooden coasters especially wouldn't have exact clones (or have lost any former clones to time). That said, I think I've come up with a couple. Ice Mountain Bobsled at Enchanted Forest, Oregon: Small terrain steel coaster designed in-house. Enclosed cars. Partial mountain themeing (enough to get it labeled "the poor man's Matterhorn"). The ride used to be a twin-track alpine slide before being converted to a coaster, and you can still see remnants of the other track. Lost Coaster of Superstition Mountain, Indiana Beach, Indiana: Once a dark ride, this was converted into an unusual wooden coaster by CCI. It features an elevator lift, enclosed cars (each with two backward-facing seats), and various mountain-themed indoor sections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottBrown Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Anaconda - Gold Reef City(South Afrika) for being to only Giovanola Inverted coaster. Wait what about Eurostar I believe that is a Giovanola Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
