robbalvey Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 How much airtime dose: -Shambhala (haven't ridden, but I'd assume typical B&M floater air based on the rider cam videos I've seen) -Silver Star (none really) -I 305 (extreme airtime in a couple of spots) -Millenium Force (floater at best) and Apollo's chariot have? (floater at best) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 ^ Only because I had zero interest to rush out and ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booink Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 ^That doesn't surprise me by how poorly B&M has performed in recent years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caffeine_demon Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Shambhala - Seems to be a bit more about "speed" than airtime, The ampersand turnaround is great though - I liked it Silver Star - Have ridden (a few times each) on 2 occasions - 1st time about 6 years ago, none to speak of - the "slalom" bit was the highlight - rode in 2012, and it had LOADS of airtime - beautiful sustained floater on every hill! I 305 - depends what the trims are up to! in 2012 there wasn't much except on the first drop - still loved it though! Millenium Force - not much Apollo's chariot - a little floater here and there -- Kanonen - I was too busy bracing myself for pain to notice! Saw-The Ride - there's the odd little pop here and there, not really meant to be an air machine though Vliegende Hollander - not much, but not meant to be an air machine Fluch von Novgorod - not a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 and it had LOADS of airtime - beautiful sustained floater on every hill! "Floater" airtime is not LOADS of airtime. It's barely airtime at all. I've been on Silver Star probably on 5 or 6 different visits. There is no real airtime to speak of. End of story.

willthegolfer Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I have a few airtime questions... Stealth @ Thorpe, I know it has some, but how good is it? Goliath @ SfOg Gold Striker @ CGA YOLOCoaster @ SFMM Wodan @ Europa Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiMiT Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Goliath at SFOG probably has the best airtime of any B&M hyper because it actually has forces! But it's still floater type airtime in most places. Even with the trim at the bottom of the helix, the coaster flies through the second half. Like every hyper coaster built by B&M, the back seat is the best place to get decent airtime on the first drop and the last few hills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
