Schotcher Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 That "shortest camelback is the equivalent of a 7 story building" still baffles me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreak101 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 ^Why? They're just saying that the smallest hill is still 70 feet tall - just makes it sounds massive, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schotcher Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 ^ Yeah that's what I mean. I'm really just wondering whether or not it will have a MCBR or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 So the lift hills are going to cross, that will make Khan feel much smaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnderCoverDrummer1 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 It looks to have a similar helix to Goliath SFOG. That helix is awesome and should be made better by the increased height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreak101 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 ^Was just going to say that! I think this layout definitely looks unique to the other hypers, I just wish there was a rendering or something so we could see the whole thing! EDIT: Judging by the supports, it looks like the ride has an airtime hill underneath the first one, and then another that leads into a turn and the *MCBR*. But then there's not enough room after that spot for the ride to drop down and then back up again into the airtime hill that you can see by how far the supports spread out. Maybe we'll see a mid-course water brake? Because it definitely looks to go up and then drop back down into what you'd think would be the MCBR, then climb up into another airtime hill directly after.

Definitely, after a second view ... I think that no MCBR. Zoomed image: This looks much more like a splash-zone, even comparing the support-height at this point.

That's exactly what I was thinking - so instead of an MCBR, we'll see a water brake in the middle of the ride in the Dragon Kahn infield, and head straight back into another airtime hill! That must be why they say the smallest camelback is still 70 feet tall - no MCBR to kill it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPmillenia94 Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 They arent going to have a splashdown there. The speed of the train ripping through water that quickly would be unsafe. Its just too early in the ride. I think that its a trench or a tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would be surprised how little the water slows down a train with a lot of momentum, loads of log flumes have mag brakes in the trenches to help with deceleration... This ride looks really cool, I sense a Spain weekend coming up next year! Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 It's directly after the drop on Krake, but he was talking about the new coaster. Looking at the plans it looks like what we suspect is a splashdown is at the end of the NEW ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
