McSalsa Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Wow, that looks cool. I like how it goes from a sit-down coaster to a inverted/suspended coaster and then back again while still doing inversions. Clearly this is still very early in development (I expect final models will seat more than 4 people) but it already looks interesting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDMC01 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 That looks really cool. It reminds me of a cross between Tranan* and a suspended coaster. *This is Tranan: https://rcdb.com/4312.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyrfyter Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I like this has the potential to never give the same ride twice. Offsetting weights would really change things if the coaster actually allows free rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonahWilliamson Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Tear out The Bat and bring her in. It works just like a camera gimbal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin22 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Strange looking concept, certainly looks thrilling. Personally though I wish they would have brought back the traditional arrow suspended rather then what ever this thing is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaFlyer Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I really like this- no ride would be the same. It combines an air launch, inversions, and the free fly aspect all into one ride. I will be interested to see at IAAPA what the capacity on something like this is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Think of the dueling coaster possibilities with this ride. You could easily do something where you have one track with 2 sets of running rails on it to have one train run below and one above. You could even make it mobius a la Kennywood's Racer but on steroids with the inversions and such. This as a dueling coaster would be much more compact than your Lightning Racers and Dueling Dragons of the world. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivertown Rider Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I like the concept and the ability to give a different ride experience each time is great. The major issue would be capacity but they could probably work through that with a bigger model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I really dig this new concept. Hopefully a park will take a chance on S&S' new coaster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like these swinging a bit more freely to actually flip around more too so could make a great thrilling ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofBaconator Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I'd like to see this take on a more traditional suspended coaster layout. Imagine The Bat but twice at tall, twice as long, and twice as fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
