Horseshoe Roll...

I am confused about the inversion on Maverick. When CP states that they are introducing a brand new type of ride element "horseshoe roll" are they talking about both of the corkscrews combined as one element, or is each corkscrew inversion a horseshoe roll? Just wondering...

The 2 inversions are considered one because they're both slightly different from eachother but are still counted as one whole element......much like a cobra roll on a B&M. The inversion itself is kind of shaped like a horseshoe and that's what gives it it's name.

In short, they're 2 inversions to form one element.

It's funny that it took me this long to realize what the horseshoe roll was.

Its just a fancy word for "two corkscrews with a turn"

You people making it out to be something new or unique are crazy.

It's not crazy, when people see the word "tallest", "fastest", "first", "best", "greatest", or "most" it grabs their attention. CP has been doing this for years.
