My money is on Megacoaster trains for two reasons. The building cutout and the supports. The supports seem to be carrying a lot more weight due to their density and spread on the layout.

no need. they wanted it to seem undersupported. Look at how high Pulsar goes compared to the original video. I'd be willing to be the back car doesn't even touch the 2-tube track

Doesn't matter if the car physically goes on it(I doubt it will under normal speeds) but that tower up there will still have an insane amount of sway. Just look up videos of Wicked Twister opening year, will be basically the same thing here.

This ride looks more bizarre by the update. This is for sure going to be an interesting ride.

That spike looks rough - could've at least extended the supportwork to where it stops twisting.

Looks to me like some theming will go on that support.

Those remind me of the Hollywood Dream helix supports.

Maybe it's dodging a buried utility/infrastructure?
