The red is the circle in the original post - disregard that. The coaster in orange is The Racer's turnaround (left is Blue Racer's turnaround, right is the Red Racer's turnaround). The coaster I circled in blue is Vortex. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 So I had a dream last night that I was riding Orion for the first time. Does anyone else have dreams about Orion? April just can't come soon enough! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead I was riding with my mom who is terrified of heights and falling from them. I did joke about John Matarese before I went to bed last night. Our wifi was out and I was like: "I think we should try and have it make the news. I know someone who can report on it (referencing John M)." lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming more of the overbank is being installed, and I can't see it because of a perfectly placed rain drop!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingsMills79 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 One would think that the winds were so strong at that height that the rain drops would be gone in a matter of minutes, yet it has been on there for well over 2 hours. Unless of course there is no wind today!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishleehooker Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 The water drops are evil. Pure evil. edit: You can see they just put in more track but its super blurry! Still cool to see them rolling along though! And can't say that King's Island didn't try to get us a better view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishleehooker Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 The curse has been broken!! Man....look at that Hill into that huge wave turn? Absolute perfection. I think this is gonna be an amazing, flat-out amazing coaster, and it will take such a crowd that Banshee, DB, Beast, and Mystic Timbers should be easier than ever to get on! All good things. But mostly, the grace of that downhill into the wave turn is so pretty! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only ride i think it will have no affect on is Mystic Timbers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see here: Mystic Timbers: 108 ft tall, 56 mph, just over 3,000 ft. Orion: 287 ft tall, 300 ft drop, 91 mph, over 5,000 feet long. GIGA COASTER. There is no way Mystic will top Orion. Not trying to be a stickler, but think it through... Plus, Orion is the only giga coaster that focuses on airtime. Rides like Fury and Leviathan are more about the low to the ground turns. Most people enjoy airtime, which is why I think Orion will be the best giga coaster, even if it is small in every giga way. EDIT: The whole stats side of the argument, not trying to sound GP. It is just kind of obvious that it will be better than Mystic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now i305 is focused on low to the ground maneuvers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatguyfromohio Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 I mean you have to get that speed some how... Right; but all of fury’s hills do stay low to the ground though@Maverick44, after that weak 2nd turning hill, it’s all lateral airtime hills, and a large helix with a head chopperSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFloppyDisc Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Still not i305 low lol I305 is definitely lower to the ground, but both Fury and I305 are speed coasters that stay relatively low to the ground unlike most B&M hypers which have big hills and focus on floater artime. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
