Hehe, it's the Efteling were talking about here. It's not a park like Six Flags at all

[TTD03]

^ Even Cedar Fair would care about details like this also.

Hmmm... I didn't realize you were dutch as well. (Nogmaals: Welkom! ) Your username reminds me of someone though. You don't happen to be Flakey?

I've never heard of someone named flakey sorry

Don't worry. The surprise would have been on me if you really were that person.

That helix looks like it's going to be taken with a good amount of speed.

I swear Ron Toomer designed that helix

[Paradox]

Wait did B&M design a helix that produces forces?

I'm gonna start preparing for the apocalypse.

[TTD03]

ooh shiit, that looks like a sick helix!
Reminds me of Nitro's but better!

Track is almost complete:

Bro you better come correctly.



Lol, but in all seriousness the actual shaping of this thing looks far better than the renderings seen previously. I imagine it'll be a great coaster and an improvement upon Krake, which seems to be well-liked despite being way short.

Yeah, don't really what you see wrong with the helix. It reminds me to the Mega-lites back turn after the big airtime hill. This one starts banking a bit later, and it banks again instead of unbanking at the top. Looks very intense for a B&M

Looking good!

Looks like the last little hill could have a nice pop of air also. Such an aesthetically pleasing project.

B&M seem to have really introduced a great out of the ordinary lineup this year.

Baron:This coaster as short as it is, looks absolutely freaking amazing.

Thunderbird: I mean it's their first launch, those tight transitions also look ridiculous.

Fury 325: All around looks intense. That thing hauls ass.

^ Indeed! I felt like Baron made Daemonen's inversions look much appealing!

[mkingy]

Man looks like they've really squeezed the all the momentum possible out of this ride, can't wait for testing!

yehe people, today the have finished the track work for baron
