This is great mixes classic Schwarzkopf with a more modern design. If only Schwarzkopf was still around today and build something like this.
Devil's Pendulum
In 1982, Anton Schwarzkopf created the first portable launch coaster.
Wiener Looping opened at Wiener Prater in Vienna, Austria and featured a vertical loop intersected by the loading station. The ride had two spikes reaching 131 ft/40 m in height and reached a top speed of 50 mph/80 km/h. The ride began with a backwards launch up the back spike, dropping back into the station and launching forward into an overbanked turn, thus creating the first "swing launch" coaster.
Swing launch coasters have become more common in recent years and I wanted to imagine what Schwarzkopf could have made if the company continued trying to build portable launch coasters. So it's somewhat of a past-meets-present-meets-past kind of a thing.
Top of spike: 131 ft/40 m
Top of 1st drop: 121 ft/37 m
Top speed: 58 mph/93 km/h
Length: 3,651 ft/1112,8 m
Capacity: 1,992 riders per hour
Max G-force: 4.9

Excellent work! Track is nice and smooth, elements flow well, and the overall layout is very interesting. It mixes in the modern swing launch concept, but still retains the classic feel of a typical Schwarzkopf. The scenery is a nice touch as well!

Very original design! Well paced, smooth and exciting. Looks and feels very much like a Schwarzkopf coaster. Wish they would build something like this today. Thanks for the upload. a definite keeper!
