    What's going on guys and welcome back to the channel! When looking at aspects of a coaster that make it a, good coaster, what things would you say make it so? Airtime? Laterals? Pacing? ... all potentially great parts of a ride, but what about smoothness? Arguably some of the best coasters out there are smooth ones, yet there's some enthusiasts (myself included), who would sometimes argue it's the roughness of a coaster that can make it all the better, weird as that sounds. Example: X2. That being said, there's just some attractions out there that I'm sure everyone in this community can agree on are just plain bad, and perhaps worst of these is one I'm bringing you all today with, you guessed it, a knock-off of a knock-off of a Vekoma SLC. Certain parts were so bad on this ride, areas of it were closed, re-profiled, and opened again, even worse than before. Valleying trains were more common than successful test runs as well, and overall it was just a disaster. With that said, now is the time you've all been waiting for. This is the story, of Century Amusement Park's, Suspended Looping Coaster Over Water.

    most companies "reprofiling": engineer new track by the numbers, build the new track, ship it off and have the old track swapped out
    this company "reprofiling": cut out 5 feet of track and weld the remainding track back together

    Even worse is the fact that it lost all speed after all the inversions and the final helix and turns were taken at a snail's pace... well, maybe that's a GOOD thing.

    I don't think roughness necessarily makes it better...but intensity can definitely make it really fun.
    I'm for sure in the minority here. But my favorite roller coaster experience was at astroworld in Houston. The ride was serial thriller, an SLC.
    I know I've ridden "better" rides since then, but there was something about that one that was just awesome. A few reasons I'm probably biased towards that is that unfortunately, we grew up without a lot of money, and it was the first trip I had ever made to astroworld, and even more unfortunate, it ended up being my only trip to astroworld.
    Another reason was that it was just after sundown in Texas. Tracks were warm for sure, and that thing was absolutely flyin!
    Also my first time riding in the front of a coaster, being a smaller 11 year old kid, I loved being able to finally see everything. By the time we reached the double twist at the end I was already hooked on roller coasters. But that element was so unexpected and awesome. You come around that corner and think you're going to crash right into the track, and you go spinning around the track and the support beams......that is my favorite part of the entire ride. I vividly remember a big smile coming across my face right after that. We tried getting back on it after the ride was over, but the ride shut down because the park was getting ready to close. My only time ever riding an SLC, which I'm sure I'm in the minority for as well.
    I'm sure if I rode one now, I would likely be a little underwhelmed, but that was, to this day, my best experience on a coaster ever.

    Fun fact: After Beijing Shibaolai created their nicknamed “Chinese SLC” model. (To knockoff the Vekoma SLC.) Vekoma came in and duplicated the layout of the knockoff SLC naming it the “Shenlin layout”. Essentially they pulled an uno reverse card when Beijing Shibaolai copied them by creating “Chinese SLC”.
    The Chinese SLC layout was different than the Vekoma SLC layout.

      @leeowen4989 2 года назад +1

      You won't be saying that if you experienced it. It may not seem like it, but an airtime hill on an inverted coaster is extremely difficult to pull off smoothly. This is because the forces that create the airtime are trying to fold the train up against the track, this causes the cars to bounce back and forth.
