One (or two) of a kind

One of a kind Intamin Spiral Coaster. It started out in a South Korean hotel, but now it's currently in Al-Sha'ab Leisure Park although it's been SBNO since 2005. It kind of reminds me of Arrow's prototype pipeline.

^^Since when do drive wheels work on turns like that..

Arthur at Europapark, because it is the only suspended, spinning, powered Coaster

^^Strike those last two lines and you're good. There are some other Huss Troikas about (I've ridden the one at Palace Playland and seen one at SFOT). Grand National and Montaña Rusa are the other surviving Möbius wooden coasters.

 

What about the racer at Kennywood's?

 

Also, that spiral coaster looks pretty sweet...reminds me of the pipeline coaster from RCT3.

You know, I have always wondered this. Same goes for banked trim brakes (like Magnum). How does the fin pass through the brakes without touching if they aren't perfectly straight in a line?

 

But it's obviously possible and it obviously works.

One (or two) of a kind... I mean Obviously TTD and KK come to mind. They are the only two strata coasters in the world.

Sorry if this is a repost, but is there more than one of these?

 

Anything else groundbreaking more recently?

Umm.. One of the rides at my home park Adventureland, the Underground, is the only indoor wooden coaster, even though it's more of a dark ride with two lift hills and an eleven inch drop. It's still pretty fun though.. even though all the effects aren't up.

WTF?

There are 3 of a kind, but that makes it even more "wtf"

How did they sell 3 of these?
