Ride had some very iconic elements and feel to it ??? I certainly noticed a lot of the Goliath inspiration you mentioned. The start of the ride was very impressive and I felt the overbank was executed really well.
The ride let you down with teh remaining layout, the upward helix kind of killed the pace and the multiple airitme hills didn't actually do much to vary the pace in my opinion. The final Goliath style snaking turns weren't well executed and I felt had you been a little more inventive with the layout leading up to them you would have been able to engineer enough room for a proper break run and a well executed ending.
