The spiral feels so much more appropriate if it does end up being themed similar to Drachen Fire. Whatever the quality of the ride experience, visually, this thing is going to be incredible.
If Fury is any indication, it’ll be like a sideways lateral turn. The shaping makes it so that your body is still floating vertically while you’re resting on your side.
That I’ve ridden:
1) Millennium Force
2) Maverick
3) Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure
4) Wicked Twister
5) Top Thrill Dragster
I guess I could add Gringotts or Wilderness Run (CP), but I find it hard to rank either one purely as a coaster.
This looks to be a good fit for the park IMO, but I hope they keep to their 48” height requirement. If this is really supposed to be the “in-between” coaster between Shamu/Atlantis and the B&M’s, it can’t carry a 54” height requirement.
Excited for the coaster, but I’m not a fan of the name. I really hope that ‘Iron Gwazi’ is just a placeholder and they go for something more appropriate, like Tamsah (Crocodile in Arabic).
I wonder if it would be physically possible to convert a coaster using Raptor-track. It’s practically the same technology, right? Just less fabrication time?
Then again it could be nothing, or Six Flags not willing to shell out anymore on maintenance.
It looks like the they didn't purchase the trains with the coaster, so it's safe to assume this will have the new trains w/ vest restraints.
