Yes hopefully they'll use their extra time double checking/fixing certain bits so the opening won't be delayed or break down, etc.

It's a B&M. You have it confused with Intamin.

Lol the last B&M to miss an opening date was never.

^Air.

Re: Kings Island | "Banshee" | B&M Invert

So, once in 23 years and 90 openings is obviously a pattern?



We could have a race: who can list five Intamin rides to miss an opening date the fastest?

I think the problem would be stopping at five.

Here's 4 that have required significant modifications either before the ride even opened or soon after.

TTD, Maverick, I305, Skyrush

Nothing like some good, on-topic, productive discussion, eh, guys?

Re: Kings Island | "Banshee" | B&M Invert

It is on topic. We are discussing how Banshee will most likely be open on time and listing Intamin coasters that weren't

This is what I was referring to.

Anyway, back on topic, this may not ride as well or be as intense as the others, but it certainly will look gorgeous.

^I dunno. That helix at the end looks like it provides some great gs.

It very well may, but the in-line looks like it may neuter the pacing.

Re: Kings Island | "Banshee" | B&M Invert

Yeah I have mixed feelings about the inline. It looks cool, but I'm not sure. It'll be pretty interesting to see how that turns out.

Re: Kings Island | "Banshee" | B&M Invert

It looks OK from the animation but it would be five times better if it were heartlined.

Re: Kings Island | "Banshee" | B&M Invert

First off, have either of you been on Alpengeist? Second, this is 2013. Everything is designed around the heartline.

This is made by Arrow, right?

Re: Kings Island | "Banshee" | B&M Invert

Honestly, I think the inline will be the best element on the ride.

No it'll be made by TOGO.
