arrowfanman Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Question: Everybody keeps talking about forces and how they dont want it to be like SB and all! Forgive my ignorance, but, are forces all that on a flyer? I mean, I can see why they matter other rides, but do forces really enhance a ride, when you are on your stomach, as 95% of this ride takes place on your stomach. Because, really, except for the pretzle loop, I cant see that many "forces" on this ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy T. Koepp Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I believe the feeling they are most going for is flight. As high as this thing is off the ground, it should achieve this. I think the positive forces fealt most will still be at the base of the pretzel loop. Mabey at the base of the innitial drop. Are there such things as negative G's on a flyer?

Eunuch Provocateur Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Hmm, I wonder... Dueling Dragons is one of the greater B&M coasters, according to most people, right? Well, what is it's theme? A dragon. What's Tatsu? A dragon. Connection? Could it be that Tatsu is the next great B&M that blows all stereotypes out of the water about their rides being fun but forceless? Probably not.

ebl Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 However Tatsu turns out, there will be complainers and there will be fans. What I don't want to hear is that horrible word "forceless." I'm really getting tired of that. A ride can be a lot of fun without pulling extreme Gs. I'm betting Tatsu will be a lot of fun. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric True... I always like riding Gold Rusher, Log Jammer, Jet Stream, Ninja, etc. when it's crowded or I'm bored due to the fact that they're simply just nice, fun terrain rides. It's cool to go up in the middle of the mountain where there's nothing but trees and stuff. And if Tatsu's like that... and a coaster to boot... laying on your stomach, occasionally looking face down on the rest of the park...then who needs Gs? It'll be awesome. -amanda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebl Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Eh, for some reason, tumbleweeds gather at our house during high winds. Where they come from, who knows? That Mazda should be honored that it's so loved by these random critters. That lift hill is going to be steep, judging by that lift piece thingie.

DATman Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I think that it'll be a steeper than normal lift, which'll be cool on a flyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Cold!? By my standards it's never cold in the Los Angeles area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4718 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 It was 37F last night, that's darn cold enough for me! Saturday was pretty bad too, the winds were cool during the day, but then at night it just got worse and we were all cursing the stupid thin pants that Magic makes their employees wear. Oddly enough, Sunday wasn't that bad, even after it got dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
