What is this roller coaster? At first glance it looks like a Eurofighter, but then again it could be a weird carny ride. Anyone have a hunch?

It used to be called cool and fresh, it has a different name now. It's a traveling coaster and actually predates eurofighters.

It's an SBF Visa Tower Coaster, did operate in the Netherlands as Cool n Fresh, then was bought by an Australian showman and renamed "Fear".
On its first outing it became stuck with riders on the lift hill, and hasn't been at another show since

I always wanted to ride this because it looks so DISGUSTING.

Did anyone else notice how on RCT3 these are available to build, but Eurofighters are nowhere to be seen? The game was released around a year after the first Eurofighter opened, so I guess whilst the game was in development they didn't know what a Eurofighter was?

I just dug up another coaster that I am intrigued to the manufacturer.

Looks similar to our previous coaster; is it a crazy China company or another traveling model?

Oh my God that looks gross <3

Where's Joe when you need him lol.

Either way those both look painful and absolutely wonderful.

They did stick a 'beyond vertical drop' element on the.....mini coaster? That was probably their compromise. I do find it odd how they leave out some basic/common rides, but then stick in that Ball coaster, and make it crap. But thats for another topic...

Jake and Ben rode that. It's the advanced version of the Toboggan coaster isn't it?

Ha I saw that YT vid and always wondered myself!
I hope SF:GA puts one in!

This was actually closed (thank god!), but we'd already ridden a clone of it at another park in China.

There is some branding on the trains of that one, but I have no idea if it's the actual manufacturer of the coaster or just the cars? If it was that simple, RCDB would have probably listed it, which it hasn't, so who knows.

They had to remove all the padding from the seats so the restraints would close on our shoulders. To be honest, I've never felt so unsafe on a ride and even if the one at Fisherman Warf was open I'd have thought twice about doing another one of them... it was that bad.
