"Dare Devil Dive" - Eurofighter for Six Flags OG

[Rush]

According to THIS...

... Dare Devil Dive will be the first Eurofighter to have lapbars! Hopefully that should reduce the headbanging on these things and I also hope that they implement these new cars on some of the older Eurofighters.

I'd say SFMM, SFGAM and SFGADV will probably have "mega" or "giga" versions of it in a few years!

No they would not create a giga version that would just be huge mabye a mega but i could not see a 300 foot straight up lift and the drop would be even crazier.It just seems unrealistic.

Ya but now there is the chance of head banging .That happened to me and my cousin

Knowing Gerstlauer, the ride will be hella more compact than that uneducated guess of a layout in that video.

I must say, I am VERY impressed with that concept art. They look like nice open trains and pretty comfortable to ride in. They look a bit like X-Cars, actually.

 

[Hixee]

I just hope they leave them that exposed. It would look and feel great to ride.

 

[Lofty]

Wow. Nice new trains. The fact that they're that open would really make you feel vulnerable and open to the elements! I really like them!

 

[Snoo]

You mean the trains are gonna be open? I thought they were supposed to be enclosed.

So is this now the second new EuroFighter in a row with this new style train/lift hill?

 

[theRock-steel]

The only thing I didn't like about Mystery Mine was the OTSR's.
These new cars look great.
I'm sure that I will love that delay as we go over the first hill. I guess that is what will make it a "dive".

 

[Snoo]

Agreed. MM was a pretty good ride.. but those OTSR's took away from what was pretty fun. Maybe they can upgrade?

 

[theRock-steel]

^ These two this year will be the only new ones without those thick shoulder pads. Even Saw and Huracan have them.

I would love to be in that factory. <3

 

[Lofty]

Those photos really struck to me how large some of the coaster pieces are before transport. Do these get taken apart at all for shipping or do they actually get put into place like this?

 

[Hixee]

^Yeah, they're taken apart before transport. They basically assemble some parts of the coaster before paining and shipping them, so that they can make sure all the bolts line up, and the whole thing fits together properly. Saves then getting to the park and realising.

So in answer to your question, yes, they will be disassembled before being transported to the park.

Those factory pictures are fascinating!

 

[Hixee]

^I agree, I like how they've got the big sections wrapped around the support pillars for the roof of the factory.

That just gets me so angry!It's like how six flags Great Adventure still calls KingDa Ka the fastest when there is 2 other faster! :x

It's the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world, what are you talking about?
