What is THIS?

She must only read the Project 2007 forum, Doug.

Check out the MF forum. All of the "Can you ride" threads will shed a lot of light on the subject for you. Also, Google "Superman: Ride of Steel death" and you should find some pertinent info.

Cliff notes: Guy fell out of the coaster, seatbelts on Intamin coasters with T-bars were shortened.

How come, on that website (funcoast), it makes it seem like it's that one hill that's a loop? Aren't there 2 hills now? Or are my eyes playing tricks on me?

That webcam fooled me also Leslie. I was at the park today and the inversion looks like a slightly modified corkscrew, nothing at all like I thought it would look going by the image on the Funcoast or Register cam.

Wow, I guess I can kind of see it, but those pictures look completely different.

Thanks though..guess I have a lot to learn.

Those pictures look completely different to me also. I honestly don't see how anyone could think those two are the same inversions. Look closer they are two different inversions.

^Nope, they're the same thing. All that's up at the site is one hill, the corkscrew, and a bunch of twists/turns. Go look at the Funcam.

Ok maybe after staring at this for awhile i might think they might be the same but, i still have my doubts. One picture it looks like a corkscrew and the other looks like a roll. Maybe it's just the camera angles that's fooling me.

How can you still have your doubts when people are telling you, that were at the site in person, that it's one inversion just different angles?

Do you think there's a conspiracy theory against Terry? ;)

lol

I was half expecting this ;)

Step 1:File
Step 2:Insert Element
Step 3 select Zero-G-Roll.nlelem

"how can you half-expect something?"

/obscure?

It's an airtime hill & a corkscrew, right?

Halltd: I do only read the Project 2007 forum. Is that bad? :-(

Yes. That's bad. Very bad.

You can learn a lot from the other forums.

Awe, man. There's more to learn? I think I'm learning enough. :-)

You're doing great, Leslie

Thank you! I'm trying. :-)

I'm getting impatient. We're going on the 9th, but I wish we could go sooner.

Looks like another inversion is going up now. So, that would bring our grand total of inversions so far to...two.

Where are you seeing the new inversion?

Nevermind....I see it. It looks like an in-line roll. At least more so than the cork-roll thats up now.

And its a little smaller than the one thats up already. So it does look like you will go through the s-turns, then hill, 180 deg ground level right turn, cork-roll, 180 deg left turn, inline-roll.

Where do you see the other inversion? I'm looking on the park cam.

That's funny...I didn't see anyone telling me they were at the site and saw just the one inversion(that would be after my first post).

Has anyone looked at the info on Kirnu on rcdb? Riders in 2 rows on opposite sides of the track. Intamin 4-D. Has anyone else noticed this?

That is an intamin ball coaster. It is really nothing much like an arrow 4D coaster. The cars freely swing and the track has no turns in it. It Just goes up and down.

I wasn't thinking that the cars were like X. Actually I wasn't thinking the cars would swing at all. Just taking notice that the cars were on the side of the track. not on top.

and didn't they say something about side windin'? :)
