Is this the giant top spin?

[Vortex1987]

Somebody posted this "guess the ride" and I'm curious. I found this a while ago while doing one of VectorCoasters guess the coasters.   I've been trying to find an awnser to this one for a while but I've had no luck, and I'm stumped.

 

Is this the giant top spin? It doesn't look like a match to any of the ride cycles the ride had, or am I wrong? It looks like a top spin and if I'm correct Crypt was the only one that was indoors and had the a frame, but this has two rows, not three.

 

What ride is this actually? Does anyone here know?

Yes, this is a top spin, but it is outdoors. As to what the ride is called and where it is, I have no clue. Those red lights in the background are a little help, but not really.

That looks like it indoors. I can see the metalwork on the building in the video. Also this has the A frame like The Crypt and not a normal top spin. But I'm still not 100% sure if this is it or not.

Thats what I thought. I did ride it in 08 and to this day nothing has ever actually scared me. Except that.

I miss this ride. Not the later version of it with the hokey un-theming. But I really miss the Tomb Raider experience. There was nothing else quite like it, especially around the Midwestern neck of the woods. I would be content with a standard Top Spin to take over the building and maybe do something else theming wise to it. They could mostly keep the rustic ambiance in there. Keep to River Town and do an abandoned saw mill. Incorporate some really cool log saws under the ride to give riders the effect they are going to be met with giant spinning toothed blades before flipping right back upward. 

Doubt this would ever happen but never out of the realm of possibilities.

I'd sell my soul, and my kidneys for that to happen. Lol.

TR:TR was so good. A mix of fantastic theming (honestly, on par with what Universal was doing at that time, pre-screens) and a thrilling ride program. 

It was so sad to ride it in the years after they removed the theming and scaled the thrills back. The last time I rode it, I had no idea they'd done more than remove the Tomb Raider IP. I expected Lara Craft references to be gone but was shocked they'd turned off the lights on the top at the ice as well as the "lava" effect below. It was just a pitch black ride that flipped me upside down once or twice. What a letdown. But the original was one of the best experiences Kings Island ever had.

Now I might try it in Planet Coaster. Lol. Take the TRTR recreation, make a second copy, and convert it into what it could be tomorrow if they would utilize the building for a normal top spin. Thanks for the idea. Lol. 

 

I'd throw a party if that were to happen in real life. It would be like TRTR  but... different? You know what I mean. Lol.
