launch up first hill? (on maverick)

it is said that after the first drop on maverick, the trains will be launched up the second airtime hill.?!? looking at the construstion pictures, throughout the updates, i cant see any parts of track resembling a launch?? just wondering......

There isn't a launch up the hill. The momentum from the first hill will launch you over it, unlike maggie where the second hill you just kind of roll over it.

....makes sense, thanks!!

Just as a further clarification, I believe any reference to being 'launched up a second airtime hill' would be referring to the launch tunnel and the following hill over the water.

....im actually referring to the hill after the first drop, sry

Which Hill are you guys talking about? Are you talking about the first hill or the second hill after the launch?

It's not literally launched as there's no LSMs on any hill except the first. After the first is just coasting, launched by the kinetic energy of the train being exerted.

Well then I'm wondering then, what's that on the second hill if thats not a LSMs after the second launch? I'm talking about the hill going towards the pond before you do a dive towards the pond. That looks like LSMs.
