thedevariouseffect Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Question for larger B&M invert enthusiasts. The large protrusions on top, are those just friction brakes or are those magnetic brakes too. Also the smaller four in the center? I'm guessing those are the magnetic brakes? Not too sure honestly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidw Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I know that there are other inverts that run magnetic brakes, so I would assume Banshee would too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedevariouseffect Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Why would there be smaller brakes though? Hmm, puzzling I will say I do love the colors. I would have liked to pay homeage to Mantis/Bansee and have a similar color scheme, but I'll take this, it's still awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calakapepe Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I think the colors aren't dark enough, but that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upstop Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Webcam on website (1:51 8/12/2013) Looks like they are starting to dig the footers for the station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Fun fact that is a little off topic: Gold Striker and Leviathan didn't have any tunnels in their animations either. Just some food for thought. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnrealNightmare Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Because neither one of those coasters were designed to have tunnels on them at first. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom497 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I'm not sure if anyone's posted this pic yet or not I don't remember seeing it anywhere. The brake that is the highest off the track (first brake to the right) is a magnetic one. The rest are friction brakes. There are also one or two more magnetic brakes behind the blue transfer track piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Because neither one of those coasters were designed to have tunnels on them at first. But what I was getting at is that we may yet end up with tunnels. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastersRZ Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Webcam on website (1:51 8/12/2013) Looks like they are starting to dig the footers for the station. They are not digging footings for the station just yet. But soon though, footings will be taking shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Our ride is magenta.. Just observing. My college's colors are Black and Magenta. I'm glad this didn't get black supports now that I think of that. Otherwise I'd end up calling it "The Muskie Coaster" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondbacker27 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I'm not sure if anyone's posted this pic yet or not I don't remember seeing it anywhere. The Track almost looks red. Needs a darker coat of paint. :/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KI FANATIC 37 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I'm curious...wondering where KI got the sound of Banshee They told YoungStud it wasn't an Intamin Giga, and that was the outcome. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanna Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Those colors are going to look boss in the skyline. Imagine pulling up to the gate and seeing that with the contrast of Invertigo. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cincystona513 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Man does that batwing look pretty darn cool. Im used to Montu's batwing inversion, but Banshees is a whole new different kind of batwing. I dig it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fryoj Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I know they are going to call it a batwing, but its really a Norwegian Loop. A Dive loop into an immelman. But if I was in marketing, I'd probably call it a batwing too. lol 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
