robbalvey Posted September 4, 2014 Author Posted September 4, 2014 Here's today's TPR Daily September video: Take a front seat ride on the Wolverine Wildcat at Michigan's Adventure! POST YOUR COMMENTS!
gerstlaueringvar Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 I don't think Dinn successfully copied Phoenix. Wolvering Wildcat looks like a very fun ride but not in the Phoenix level. Maybe if they put the brake at the final turn will allow them to run Two trains.
GCI Wooden Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Looks fun, but I would rather go on Phoenix...
moneygrabber Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 Looks okay...I haven't been on Phoenix or this coaster so I have no comparison. Layout does not equal fun but hopefully I will get out to Knoebels one day.
rcdude Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Tornado looks like a really good ride. I'm guessing it's probably the best of the Intamin inverts (all types included). I kind of wonder why more weren't built...perhaps it was just too late entering the market. Wolverine Wildcat looks like an okay woodie. The layout is definitely similar to Phoenix, but from the video it looks like the ride travels through it faster and the hills are more shallow, resulting in less airtime. I'd ride it if I went to Michigan's Adventure, but it's probably not worth multiple rides.

gerstlaueringvar Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Lunet? Professor Thad said everything, no comment (I think Gerstlauer's brake is very good as well)
ozziboy Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Finally, we get a flawless, informed and thought-provoking commentary given by a well-respected and credible World Class expert in his field. .
Vtafro Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 After watching the video, didn't thad reach out and thats why he was hit by a tree?
Barge84 Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I did reach out, but I didn't think it was actually that close. I was legitimately surprised that it drilled me.
coasterchitchat Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Thad deserves a job at Six Flags. Seriously. I think half the folks at Six Flags don't even know what a coaster is.
cfc Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I did reach out, but I didn't think it was actually that close. I was legitimately surprised that it drilled me. Never piss off a tree!
robbalvey Posted September 6, 2014 Author Posted September 6, 2014 Today's coaster - the totally OMFG Dive Loop Ultra Twister at Rustusu Resort! POST YOUR COMMENTS!!!
gerstlaueringvar Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Twisty! TOGO actually can make something smooth Is the lateral G force strong during the heartline rolls?
Voyager6442 Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Cedar Fair, please take note and add to your 5-year plan! This ride doesn't take much space.
GCI Wooden Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Are there any operating ultra-twisters in America? I know there were a few that have been demolished, but I can't find an operating one. These look really fun and I would love to try one. Is it smooth? It looks amazingly smooth in the video, but them I remember it's a TOGO.
Nrthwnd Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) The dive loop makes this one, The Best One of all ultratwisters, I've ridden, so far. Edited September 7, 2014 by Nrthwnd
Nickstroberg Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 If there was ever a TOGO I would tavel around the earth to ride.... THIS IS IT! Looks like a great coaster, ultra twisters are so fascinating to me.
