Phantom's Flight

Here's my first flyer. It has a top speed of 54mph and is about 3,000 ft. (I think) Here's a list of inversions.
Overbanked turn
Pretzel Loop
Vertical Loop
Corkscrew
In-line-twist (kinda bumpy)
Tell me if you liked it or not and give me some things that I need to fix besides the in-line-twist (because I don't know how to make one of those smoothly) There will also be 3 screen shots posted.

yeah the inline is bumpy and it is a little speedy but other than that pretty good

i smoothed the inline out and some other spots and it rides nicely. i adjusted the speed to fit more comfortably in different areas. even without adjustments it is a good ride

It's pretty good - no severe rough spots, but the g's on the corkscrew and the final helix are a bit high... 5 g on a lay down position isn't very good to the riders...

Suggestions:
1. Smooth out the entrances and exits of the corkscrew
2. Smooth out the final helix

Anyway this coaster doesn't feel like the normal Atrace-ish coaster (which is a good thing).

one thing i have noticed about the premade corkscrews is that the entrance/exit verticies are not calibrated very well at all
