Vtafro Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Knock off or not these have never been enjoyable for me. #headbanging
ozziboy Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Perhaps in China they use these quality of rides as a tactic to keep their queue lines shorter? Or just as a punishment for crimes?
Ap0ptosis Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 What do you mean you got B+? You are a disgrace! I'm going to take you to the amusementpark! Noooooooooo daaad
Woodie Warrior Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 I'm glad that rides so under-maintained aren't allowed in the US
sixflagscoasters Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 I'm glad that rides so under-maintained aren't allowed in the US That's a joke right? I have seen U.S. rides posted on TPR in similar or worse condition. But I am sure they have all passed inspections.

I've never seen a roller coaster in the US that has been in worse condition than some of the death traps we've ridden in China.

I've never seen a roller coaster in the US that has been in worse condition than some of the death traps we've ridden in China. I am basing it off of this video. The ride does not look that bad. I hear that you guys were in pain. I am not defending the Knock-offs or Chinese death traps.

XYZ Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 I always find it entertaining that the Chinese knock off roller coasters that aren't that good to begin with.
sixflagscoasters Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 They usually look a bit Roller Coaster Tycoon-ish with the way the transitions and drops are made.
XYZ Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 They usually look a bit Roller Coaster Tycoon-ish with the way the transitions and drops are made. I wouldn't be surprised if a few of China's coasters were actually designed by RollerCoaster Tycoon.
rcjp Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised if a few of China's coasters were actually designed by RollerCoaster Tycoon. That is a rather strong possibility
BigBomer Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Looks like a "one and done" kind of coaster. The bumps in the track look way worse than the other Knock-Offs, heck it even looks like they messed up the loop!
simaticable Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 At least the ride does not look to be as painful as the Michigan/Ohio State game...
2012jarrett Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 I never thought I'd say it, but they should tear this down and put a boomerang there! That thing looks worse than a boomerang! Not kidding! And that turn into the corkscrews looks so yuck I can't even begin to describe it...
azza29 Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 For a knockoff they've captured the Arrow loopscrew experience pretty well - hard to believe these things were once the "new hotness" anywhere!
Nrthwnd Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 ^ Well, loops and corkscrews had to simply exist, somehow. The original US corkscrew, at Knott's, would be totally lame by today's creations. And Revolution at Magic Mountain was the first looping coaster in the US, yes? Pretty tame now, but thankfully it's layout is still pretty good. And these were the start of the rest of every thing else we ride today. That said, this was an awful coaster to ride. Period. And there were a few more to come in the TPR China tour last year.
JeromyL Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised if a few of China's coasters were actually designed by RollerCoaster Tycoon. ROFL!!!
cmullin Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 THe name just set me off, and it looks like an awful coaster also.
KrakenKing Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Did everyone on the train survive? Or did you all walk away with minor concussions?
kidcoaster 2 Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 There will be ERT on this during the next China trips? Right?
