So far I'm not convinced yet. It does look like a really fun ride, but it might be that it doesn't look that fast or insane due that overlay. Time will tell when tests roll out. :)

Definitely looks "mack" esque - some really good moments but a lot of ideas and elements neutered due to speed.

I still can't get over how weird that pointy unrolled corkscrew thing is after the launch.

That inversion after the tophat is going to be sensational. You can see how far it dives down into the gulch, and it's going to be upside-down floater. *groans loudly from pleasure*

Every time I check on this thread, I involuntarily catch a glimpse of that S&S thing that this was supposed to be originally. I am so happy it ended up being this Intamin... this coaster is going to kick all kinds of behind.

Another aerial video of Taiga:



The park has also uploaded a timelapse video of Taiga going up...:



...but whats more important is that it seems like this will have a soundtrack from IMAScore.
