- In 2024 the world's first strata coaster was redefined with an LSM launch and a massive rear vertical spike. But how was this massive renovation pulled off and how does it work today?

Was TT2 the right choice to replace TTD?

I'd really love a video of how the slingshot relaunch such as Velocicoaster has was designed. Looking forward to this one.
ruclips.net/video/rNEg_lX-uo4/видео.html He already did one of Velocicoaster
Gotta admit this does look a lot cooler than the original, which is clearly just that kind of ride where they build it to just try and break a record and not much else. Now at least the ride experience is longer than 10 seconds lol
I would love to see a video on how Anna’s and Elsa’s journey works:D
Would it be possible to do a video about Ride to Happiness? I think the spinning cars and their control systems would make for a really interesting video, and the launches spinning the cars must have some clever technology behind it.
I can't wait to see this TT2 video, all of your How it Works are awesome!
Please do a video on VOLTRON at europa park if you can, it's one of, if not the worlds best roller coaster!
Ikr, it looks soooo gooood
Your 3D models are so helpful
TT2 Looks neat and all, and I appreciate the slightly longer ride time, but I feel like g-forces from the 0-120 of the original would be more impactful than the "gradual" increase. Instead of pulling a ton of G's all at once, you're essentially pulling smaller G's twice.
The acceleration of the first was insane. Popped a blood vessel in my eye when I rode it. Super gnarly. Glad I got to ride it right before they decided to do this to it.
Do you think it’s better though?
@@Jimmylovessalt Do I think the second one is better? I haven't rode the new one.
I'd warrant a guess though that I'd still prefer the OG. Not to be a stick in the mud, but just because of the reason I mentioned above.
Then again, I haven't rode it. Maybe I'd like it.
I feel the exact same way.
That's what advertised the whole ride for me.
Where else can you get 0-120 in 3.8 seconds?
@@jorge5275 maxx force feels similar to
@@Jimmylovessalt where is Maxx Force at?
And now the ride is down for an 'extended' time to modify the trains.
Love your vids man, your 3D models male all the difference
Love your videos but this isn’t your usual thoroughness! How did zamperla make track to perfectly match the existing intamin track? Tolerances have to be extreme at 100+ mph! What is the acceleration rate compared to the old one? Does the new model have more track to accelerate? Do the new trains hold more or less people? Is this the max you could do with lsm s or could you add seats, weight, speed? Does the power bank use flywheels or capacitors? In general, is it more or less efficient to have a short lived launch versus a constantly running lift hill?
Oh it definitely isn't. This is actually a stand in video for another that's been delay unfortunately so I put this short one together. Lesser known ride and all.
Your lights thing you are selling makes me wonder what the process is for track mapping by the creators of rides. Is it form follows functionality or like Disney dark rides, and they make the track fit the story regardless of anything else. If you have insights into track creation, I am now curious about that too.
They should rename it to "always closed 2"
"Spiked" interest..
I see what you did there 👀
No Disney rides by lightrides? I'm sad :'(
There's one of Tron. There's also more coming 🙂
@AmusementLabs oh nice. I'm in California though so no tron for us haha. Space Mountain or big thunder I'd buy instantly. Idk if you can do RotR but that would be awesome too!
@@420hotbox36 Big Thunder is definitely on the list. The issue with space mountain is that it has a lot of overlapping track so I fear the board would just look like a mess of LEDs.
Right now it's not working at all The timing of this is ironic!
"How it doesn't work"
It doesn't work. But keep throwing good money after bad...
