gforce1994 Posted Saturday at 02:50 AM Share Posted Saturday at 02:50 AM Here’s a recreation of the original design of the Son of Beast based on an architecture model that was recently sold at auction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeastFarmer Posted Monday at 03:27 AM Share Posted Monday at 03:27 AM That looks much better than the built version. Lots of overbanking. Do you know why they modified from this design, @gforce1994? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know why they modified from this design, @gforce1994? Cost, and the fact that Son of Beast would have been the World’s Tallest, Fastest, and Longest wooden coaster. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outdoor Man Posted Monday at 04:56 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:56 PM For the most part, SOBs entire life predates RMC refurbs. Had it been retired post-2019, could it have been one h3ll-uv-an RMC remake or would the weight of new steel on an already sub-quality frame have worked? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted Monday at 06:59 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:59 PM I notice several differences. Seems they should have stuck with this design, although with the subpar making of this coaster, it likely wouldn't have mattered anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
