kadabrium Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 The first drop and immelmann of Gate Keeper combined is similar to a Norwegian loop with a downward (instead of horizontal) exit. Takabisha also has a jojo roll in the dark section. and I think I once saw a barrel roll in a tunnel on an Intamin inverted coaster somewhere in Finland.

A.J. Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Was Texas Tornado always that way? It seems as though the inversions were re-profiled - does anyone have photos from when that ride opened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure. These are the oldest pictures I could find: Here is the ever strange Saxaphone as well: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougMJr Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 ^^Judging by the POV it looks like it might have had just enough speed to get through the second loop at that larger radius. Maybe it was re-profiled to reduce the likelihood of valleying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brisingr25 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 The rare drop at Hersheypark. Great Bear, B&M Inverted: And I think Expedition Ge Force's curved drop it's unique too: Photos from RCDB.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vacoaster09 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Sky Scrapper (Starry Night Ripper) - From the reviews this 540 roll is both unique and amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gforce1994 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Son of Beast's loop was a unique element for a woodie. No it wasn't: Look up Flip Flop Railway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rctneil Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Sky Scrapper (Starry Night Ripper) - From the reviews this 540 roll is both unique and amazing. That part is just plain odd. It's a standard heart-line roll but then you twist over half as much again. It disorientates you quite a bit to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gforce1994 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Basically most of the Storm Runner's elements are unique. The odd-shaped immelmann: The flying snake dive: The odd turns into the brake run: Why does the picture date from 2000 when the coaster was built in 04?

Zem Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) ^ ^^ Aren't all of the RCT3 coasters based on real life designs? Edited January 9, 2013 by Zem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Yes, or prototype, like the Thrill-lift, which was a Stengel design if my memory's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
