Wonder if the straps are absolutely needed due to the forcefulness.

The pacing seems to "surge" on it. I can't put my finger on what ride it reminds me of.

The pacing reminds me of a Knex coaster...

The loading procedure / operations are looking pretty good. Only downside is that you probably have to use payed lockers to ride the coaster...

These things look like a hell of a ride. Same the capacity is so low.

I don't what I like better... The ride itself, or that drone footage... Its probably he best drone work I've seen personally.
What are these for?

Most of the shots felt more 3d animationish though.

Right, and the fact that it is real footage and not animated is what makes it so good.

I think that it also feels like an animation because the track style and the supports are so simple. But the footage does look really good indeed.
