I like how low the rest of the layout is compared to the first element. Should promise a fast and forceful ride

I really need to see if any of the Poles I met at work have been to this place since their work contract expired.

3.8g will be reached in that turn. :)

With a launch speed of 80km/h, there will be 3.7g at the entrance of the Immelman-loop (the official name for this inversions, don't ask), and -0.2g at the top. Hangtime! :D

^ The product data like this, is no longer a "top" secret thing compared to that around 20 years ago! Thanks to the internet we can even touch the hidden world of coaster industries!

Makes a nice change from being boxed into a classic Vekoma looper!

Those look sick. I want to see how well this rides. Vekoma is really reinventing themselves.

I like it, runs through slowly but looks smooth and exciting enough, would like to see what the speed looks like through that first turn.

It was the first run. Should loosen up over time.
