^ Yes.

Brett-Jones I don't quite get your point. Too clean, too precise... What's wrong with a design being very polished and not rushed? I find it very satisfying to have a layout that flows perfectly from start to finish, without having some awkward roll transitions or adjustments... And that is also very enjoyable to ride by the way. It reminds me of a circus act where the performer makes it very easy to do, but in hindsight it's still very hard.

I mean, I can get that it's not your style of coaster - it's like music, to each their own. But give them a try if you can. :)

^^ Actually, the comfort collar is meant to prevent you from worst (whiplash, hips injury, etc), so from that point of view it makes sense...

I was just driving by San Diego Sea World the other day and saw that the trackwork was complete. It's a nice looking ride and definitely the tallest thing in the area. Hopefully I'll be back in California again sometime and can do a California theme park trip.

Green reflection coming out of nowhere ? (my wall is gray with metallic reflection, and there's no green light)

1 word: AMAZING!

You sure that's an official animation and not just one made by MrRC (Sjaak van Horne)?

That might become more populair. But I would keep them together in one thread, so people can choose.

Hey guys, wouldn't it be a great idea to start a new game thread that's just for guessing coaster layouts? That way we could have both "guess the coaster" variants at the same time :D

[ME LIKE]

^That is correct!

Thunderbird at Powerland?

Okay time to show off my awesome paint skills!

as good as these new vekomas look i cant help but feel like they are quite soulless , they feel very off the shelf, too clean and precise. nothing about it interests me on an enthusiasts level. I feel the same about some new new B&Ms and mack coasters as well. they just dont feel like massive machines anymore they are all very conservative.

I love how ironic the name "comfort collar" is. They are... not that. The only SR2 I've ridden is Tempesto, and even with the collars it was a very fun and intense ride.

HNNNNNNNGGGGGGG

Seriously incredible! The first time I watched the animation there was a point (somewhere around the outside-banked hill) where I thought the thing was over, but then it just went on with an S-hill and corkscrew into another trench dive and I was like "wait, it still keeps going?!" And I mean that in a good way! Holy crap, that model has so much airtime it's crazy, but they still managed to put a lot of inversions without destroying the ride's flow. I'll admit I was a little underwhelmed by their Firestorm model (make no mistake though, I still thought that that was really really good but after their Bermuda Blitz model I just thought it didn't quite reach those levels of awesomeness), but this model looks like it might even be better than the Bermuda Blitz!

It looks like Vekoma's really good at providing parks with incredible rides for really cheap prices. In a perfect alternate universe one of these would have already shown up where I live D: Enchanted Kingdom management please get on it? :P

@viking86 That's correct :D

Well unfortunately dropping out. Simply don't have enough time to currently finish it. Though I'm really quite happy how it is so far. I do plan on finishing it and hopefully one of the judges will still grade it just for fun when its all said and done.

Why do many I beams?

no... they are straws.

Are those supports toothpicks?
