    Canada's Wonderland |"Leviathan"| B&M HyperGiga

    Re: Leviathan - B&M giga coaster for Canada's Wonderland ^^Calm down... Can't speak for anyone else, but I think it's all been quite civilized so far (for a forum...) ^^^They do mean something - MF, when compared to Magnum, was a much bigger leap forward. This is a more of an evolution...

    Canada's Wonderland |"Leviathan"| B&M HyperGiga

    Re: Leviathan - B&M giga coaster for Canada's Wonderland What are you smoking? I invented those numbers? It's perfectly reasonable to compare them on factors other than layout. And I'm not the one who brought the comparison up. Seeing as none of us have ridden a B&M Giga, none of us know...

    Raptor - B&M 'Wing-Rider' - Gardaland

    Wait, I think I can see it now... is that green thing a restraint?

    Raptor - B&M 'Wing-Rider' - Gardaland

    Do we? Really? That looks suspiciously like Kraken's train to me. The seats most certainly are.

    Texas Giant opening date confirmed

    Blimey. If anyone was in any doubt if this was a new credit or not... You'd never guess it was the same coaster, I wasn't very familiar with the old version and didn't realise just how much they changed it.

    Mountain Flyer - GCI Woodie for Knight Valley, Shenzhen

    ^To be fair, that's one of their oldest ones, and more importantly, has different trains (are they PTCs?). I haven't heard even one bad report about any of the GCIs with Millennium Flyers.

    Mountain Flyer - GCI Woodie for Knight Valley, Shenzhen

    COMPLETELY AMAZING NEW IMAGE! Oh, it's actually not that exciting compared to quadruple station flybys... But still nice to see it coming along.

    Best colour scheme

    Maybe it's partly the setting, but I really like Kwasemi: And maybe I'm just biased, but grey with pink rails sounds horrible, but I think it works very nicely:

    Raptor - B&M 'Wing-Rider' - Gardaland

    ^^^I was imagining it might be like Manta's and not a 'real' splash if it was on a corner, but I don't know if the technology that goes with Manta belongs to B&M or if SeaWorld has a patent on it of some sort. Do any of the press releases etc. even mention some sort of water element? Then...

    Raptor - B&M 'Wing-Rider' - Gardaland

    If this splashdown element is actually happening (I can't be bothered to trawl through 20 pages to see if it's confirmed or just a rumour) then it was suggested a couple of pages back that it could be on the corner between the bunny hop and second inversion... Or in other words, straight after...

    Starry Night Ripper- B&M Flyer for World Joyland

    Well done B&M, they must have been smoking something when they designed the layout. I'm glad to see them breaking away from their 'standard' flyer layout, I wonder if the Heide Park dive machine will go in a new direction? They seem to be having a burst of creativity this year, it's great.

    Thirteen, Intamin ''psychoaster'' - Alton Towers 2010

    Seems that people have been so quick to rush to their computerbox to e-scream "THAT LOOKS **** LIKE!" they might have overlooked a couple of things. 1. That "thrill engineer" (Brandon something? People don't seem to like him much...) was quoted in a newspaper article about this time last year...

    Battlestar Galactica - Duelling Coaster for Singapore
