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...

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...

Re: Leviathan - B&M giga coaster for Canada's Wonderland I love statistics I do. Behemoth B&M Hyper Built 2008 Height - 230 feet Length - 5318 feet Speed - 77MPH Drop Angle - 75 degrees Cost - 26 Million (Canadian) Leviathan B&M Giga Built 2012 Height - 306 feet Length - 5486 Speed - 92MPH...

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

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

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.

^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.

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

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:

^^^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...

Another one?! I didn't even spot this one!

Oh wireless dongle, how I hate thee...

Sorry...

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...
