Ryancrash Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 Looking great so far! Thanks for sharing the pictures. Can't wait to go back to Italy and ride this.
matteocrepaldi Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 Here's an updated look at the construction from the webcam. I smell trim brakes. The good thing is that they are after the airtime hill wich means that they will not kill the airtime. Also look at that turn on the right! I love it! Can't wait to see the drop and the connection to that first inversion. This is just awesome!!!
Mochtroid Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 Triple inversions? What next, the seats actually rotate? Anyway, this is the new coaster to watch this year, a close second being Texas Giant. Any clearer views than the webcam of the site in general? they don't have to be recent.
Lamoure Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 3 Inversion, till now!! I could swear there will be a fourth.. maybe in the dark before the lifthill.. Because if the station after the brake run, the train had to travel a helix and a bit straight to the lift
jjune4991 Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 That layout looks incredible! Can't wait to see the drop. I'm guessing it'll be a B&M turning drop, gotta love 'em. I really hope I'll be able to go here next summer while I'm in Italy!
DarkStitch626 Posted November 15, 2010 Posted November 15, 2010 If you follow the track it goes from the roll, pans right screen turns does roll, pans left screen turns.. its a big ZIG ZAG layout. I hope nobody complains that I see 2 trim brakes on it after the first roll. Those don't bother me one bit. I LOVE the layout. OH and if you look at the drop VERY close it turns to the left after the crest. Oh and yes now I see the trim brakes were already talked about.
jjune4991 Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 Station's coming along nicely. Wonder when they'll get that first drop finished.
Gigalyte Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 Imo i'm sorry this ride looks so boring to me,atmost on the verge od been a giant kiddy coaster or closer to Intamin 13 ride they just constructed. I'm not saying they should of went all X2 2oo foot vertical drop but man this is your classice Boring and Mundane coaster. It doesn't look high speed at all yet theres trims in three diferent spots I know they main goal is to perfect the wing walker like trains they could of added alittle more excitment then what I see in these pics. Yes i juging from pics the ride could turn out amazing so far just judging by pics this looks to be the most boring uninsired B&M creation to date. Even if the seat were to flip like X2 it still seams like it would add very litle to this ride. again juding by phots ride could turn out to be utterly amazing
matteocrepaldi Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 ^^ If you look carefully behind the lift hill you'll be able to see a crane so my guess is that the first drop will be in place by the end of this weekend.
tiger01 Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 That turn after the airtime hill looks crazy! Some Banking there!
DarkStitch626 Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 With the height of the first drop vs the first inversion it could very well have decent speed for its size through the layout. I think its a very big achievement and a LEAP for B&M who use to only do 4 across trains, much like how they broke away with the B&M Mega trains going 2 centered and 2 outter. I am loving this!
jray21 Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 It's looking really good! Can't wait to get back out there and ride it.
SharkTums Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 I've learned to have REALLY low expectations with recent B&M's, that way I won't be too disappointed when I ride a new one. Hopefully this will start a trend of them building good, forceful rides again!
Hayzle Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 I know this is kind of off topic, but what was the last really good B&M coaster?
adavis Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 It's not perfect, but I do really like that coaster.
kalikoasterman510 Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 Just my opinion but I really think Riddlers or the Batman Clones. I mean once they started building hell of em, the layout lost its wow factor!
DBru Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 Georgia Scorcher is good...wish it were a standard sit-down...but still, it's good. I think that's one of the latest inspiring layouts we've seen from the company. I think this looks good, too, though.
alpengeist04 Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 I know this is kind of off topic, but what was the last really good B&M coaster? Kumba? Just kidding. ...Though I do set my expectations much lower for B&M then I do for Intamin. I really do hope this coaster is a success.
matteocrepaldi Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 The good news is that Gardaland will reopen in about a week for Magic Winter. We'll get a lot of great updates soon!
PKI Jizzman Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 Diamondback? YES! It's only the greatest, most unique B&M every built with a splashUP! And umm this coaster is looking crazy. I can't wait to see more work on the first drop!
