Good Job. I really liked that ride and the custom supports were cool also. The ride was very smooth and the last element was cool. Good ride.

VERY NICE. I love it. Very smooth, good pacing, no jolts. Oh, in the beginning, where the supports make it look like you are going faster, for some reason, it didn't feel the same way as it did in the first BTTF. I dunno, it's probably just me. I like the colors. GOOD JOB. I'm not even going to bother giving you a number rating. Well done.

Cool Review

This whole series of coaster has been very interesting to me, and I like seeing the conceptualization and the creative use of supports.

The launch was very cool. When putting inversions in hypercoaster track, try to maintain good speed through the entire inversion. I know you were trying to get good airtime, but imagine going upside-down and slamming your thighs into that lapbar, hanging for a few seconds, and then slamming back in your seat. I know for the extreme enthusiast out there this might be a great experience, but Hip Replacement Harry might be a little hindered by the jolt. I did, though, like that one and one half loop element. I'm fast becoming a stickler on supports and fluidness, but in this case, both were ok, not perfect, but perfection is such an unreachable ideal. I don't remember if you had a mid corse brake run, but the design is so conceptual that I didn't miss it. Again, I loved your support art. Great work on this series and I look forward to your work in the future.

Thanks Ben. I just wanted to say that on the Intamin loopers (Therere a few) that they use OTSR(Over the Shoulder Restraints), so on this coaster, we just have to pretend that there are OSTRs.

I thought your inversions were rather slow, which has always been my complaint with most B&M coasters. Cool suppports and turns, neat final element, needed smaller inversions.
