TheGallophingGhost Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 If you could add a little something from one designer and company to another of a different what would your “dream”combo be? For me...... restraints by Schwarzkopf, trains and seats by B&M, design by Stengel, creative input and attitude by Toomer, track by B&M, layout by Intamin, launch by S&S (for speed and smoothness) with help from Premier for reliability and themeing by Disney or Universal. I’m sure I’ll change this 100 times especially after reading yours.......Go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT325 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 restraints by Schwarzkopf, trains and seats by B&M I'll just piggyback on this... and add my 2 cents. The special thing about those Schwarzkopf trains are not only the restraints (which are comfy, not tight yet still keep you in) but more importantly, those seats. They are near-flat (slight depression in the middle) and not grippy. This enables you to slide around laterally on curves, sort of like a classic wood coaster. All while still having an individual lap bar, and no seat divider. It is steel coaster perfection to me, all designed around... what, 1975?

CoasterInk Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 This looks fun! By B&M: Pretty Wheels (most important), seats, vibrant colors that somehow work By Intamin: Lap bar restraint, track (from TTD, Millennium, GForce, etc), and hydraulic launch By Mack: Track By Arrow: Sllllllllllooooooooooooooooooowwwwwww lift By Alan Schilke: Design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ride Shockwave at SFOT almost every time I'm there, which is 3-4 times a month, and I HATE those seats and restraints. The seats are hard and the metal restraint always leaves a few small bruises on my upper thighs. I do like how you're not stapled in, but a little padding on the part that goes across the top of your legs would make a huge difference to me when you get thrown up into it.

ytterbiumanalyst Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I would take the trains from Millennium Force, put them on Millennium Force, and put it at Cedar Point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGallophingGhost Posted July 11, 2018 Author Share Posted July 11, 2018 I really thought everyone was going to ask for Arrow / Toomer transitions and OTS restraints. Mmmmm. In all seriousness I thought this would be fun and I’m really enjoying everyone’s responses!! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canobie Coaster Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 S&S for an air launch Dodonpa styleTrains, track and everything else from Mack As awesome as Millennium Force's trains on Millennium Force is, I have to give my nod to this. Do-dodonpa's launch is lunacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B&MIntaminGCI Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Every roller coaster would get B&M's clamshell lapbars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JG-77 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 S&S: Do-dodonpa launch Intamin: Extreme ejector and Maverick-style laterals B&M: Clam shell restraints and roar sound that Great Bear makes RMC: Smoothness (especially on their newer rides like TT and SV from what I hear), Alan Shilke Vekoma: Inversions (I hear Lech Coaster has fantastic intense inversions) DISCLAIMER: I have never been on an RMC, S&S, or new-style Vekoma,so my choices are based on what I've heard from others.
