- There are so many amazing moments of airtime on coasters. Airtime takes many different forms and can deliver some of the best moments on a coaster. So today I decided to do my best to ultimately determine what airtime moment truly is the best.

Here’s an easy way to imagine SteVes airtime. Imagine a B&M invert. You know how hard they tug at your legs when preforming a turn? Now imagine that pull, but as airtime. That’s SteVe’s outward banked turn.
This is actually the perfect way to describe it. I can see it now
Honestly
This outward banked turn isn't good.
@@Coastoons Or another way to look at SteVes outter banked turn, is it is sustained ejector on an off axis tilt.
Great Analogy!
What on earth happened to this comment section
The reason Steve’s outer banked is the lateral forces that are added. The laterals are converted into stronger airtime because of the banking.
Also because it’s banked you’re not going directly against gravity, like you would be if it wasn’t banked
I've ridden all the rides in the video, and this element felt unique to all the others mentioned. I think this is the right expiation.
@@Kramakiss the hill right after the first drop on iron gwazi also banks like that. It’s gunna give massive airtime. Can’t wait to ride it.
The outer bank only has lats when you pull in and pull out. It is just pure of axis ejector with 0 laterals.
Alan designed it to avoid lats, the first hill and off axis hill into the structure have lats, the outerbank doesn’t except for the entrance and exit
Best moment of airtime and not even an honorable mention to Magnum’s finale....
Pain when stapled lol
I agree maybe because it’s at my home park cedar point
Facts, phantom’s revenge has a good airtime finale too
On Steel Vengeance, the lateral whip in the middle of long ejector air is unique. You can't predict how it feels from videos. It surprised everyone, hence the reactions you have read.
Expedition Geforce's big Airtime hill after drop and the Quad Bunny Hop Finale is Insane.
I was focusing on American parks but I think Expedition GeForce airtime hill would've made it if it was worldwide
Der Twisted Airtime Hill ist auch ziemlich geil
Expedition GeForce has the best airtime i‘ve ever experienced. Although it’s not my #1 coaster, it still amazes me everytime.
And the first drop is just pure insanity, especially in the last row left seat!
well, EGF has the most powerful airtime in the world. -2 1G
The 2 airtime hills just before the mid-course brake on the last corner of EGF are insane, try riding it 3 times back to back and your legs will have bruises on top just because of the insane amount of airtime. Also, the first drop on Tonnere de Zeus in Park Aserix is amazing in the back row. I have never experienced a complete out of the seat first drop, from crest to the bottom in the tunnel you will be flying. It's amazing!
Oh man.. Steve is going to shatter your expectations....
I sure hope it does...
I actually agree with snubbing Steve for this award. It’s my favorite coaster and the airtime is amazing, but it’s definitely more about the insane quantity rather than the quality. My favorite part is the second half where the airtime moments come at you one after another at an insane pace. It’s hard for me to name any one real standout moment but the experience as a whole is so good. Also, don’t forget that the camelbacks on colossos at heide park are like 90% as good as El Toro’s.
I was mostly focusing on North America but yeah those camelbacks look insane
Colossos Hills are pretty weak because of the trims
DC Rivals’ Non Inverting Loop Backwards! I’ve heard it pulls -2gs and riding a hyper coaster backwards is just an amazing experience!
Yeah its ABSOLOUTELY AMAZING!
Yep I can confirm it’s insane as are the bunny hills at the end, I have video evidence of my friends and me straining out of our seats on those moments and you can see the pure shock on our faces!
Everyone talks about the quarry crawl on Iron Rattler but I don’t think anyone should judge it until they ride it. I rode it 6 times in a day and it hauled over the quarry wall, just needed some heating up. I wasn’t bothered at all by the pacing, and I can confirm that the final dive is incredible.
7 words: Raging Bull's first drop in the back
I've been hearing this a lot recently. Its probably one of those elements that looks alright but is actually the highlight of the ride
Anybody else grab their ankles while going over that drop? It adds a whole new element of crazy as your head is pulled down a bit so it feels like a steeper drop in addition to the crazy airtime.
@@constable012 what are you talking about lol
No
for SteVe's outerback: first, I must say that I haven't been on it, do I don't know how it feels
but looking at it from a forces point of view, it makes sense. It's no just a hill, it's also a turn, which means the force exerted on you isn't perfectly vertical or horizontal, it's angled. As such, if you had a flat piece of track, you'd have part of the force converted into lateral G's and part of it converted into vertical G's.
to maximize airtime, you need to align yourself with the force. In that turn's case, that means creating an outer-banked turn so the track is perpendicular to the force exerted. This way, all that force becomes airtime.
In short, the turn is banked outwards to convert all the lateral G's into extra airtime
Thanks for the clarification. Now all that's left to do is ride it
@@Coastoons indeed!
can't be worse than me there. I like to think I'm sort of an enthusiast, but the truth is I've only ever ridden roller coasters once in my life. Every single coaster out there is on my bucket list, basically
Appa Flying BisonYT my most intense ride ever was on a Vekoma Boomerang as a kid, that's it. I really need to start riding roller coasters again
I love how everyone calls Steel Vengeance Steve.
One very underrated airtime experience is The Boss’ dip after the first drop. It is about 2 seconds of pure ejector. It’s insane. I’ve ridden El toro and SteVe, but The Boss’ dip is by far my favorite airtime moment.
Same
Okkkk....
I'll have to feel it to believe it
It only works in the very back tho
@@michael_Calhoun yes. That is true. In the back at night is amazing!
the first drop on raging bull in the back is absolutely insane
I'm glad Twisted Timbers is getting recognition because I don't think it gets enough attention. It's opening got overshadowed by Steel Vengeance, and even though it's a great ride, more people could care less because a bigger and better version was opening too at the time.
0:03 thank's airtime! highly appreciated. Raging bull's first drop is great!
Also I’d say that wonder woman’s airtime at fiesta Texas is stronger than iron rattler.
Yea I’ve been to fiesta texas and I like Wonder Woman more than I rat. Wonder Woman gives insaneeee airtime if dot on the back for the first drop
😶
It is insane. I prefer IRAT, but this does give some incredible ejector airtime. Definitely back seat on this one!
Wonder Woman was my first ever roller coaster, and my harness didn't click quite as much as it should have been (I had a fanny pack in the way). The amount of time I spent off of the seat was insane!
My home park is fiesta Texas and I can confirm that IR’s quarry dive is like being launched out of a canon with a weight attached to your waist
Got the privilege to ride IR and you aren't lying! Both front & back rows are insane off that cliff.
"Airtime loves you"
That is so MEANINGFUL thank you!!
Behemoth's first airtime hill after the lift is heavenly. I'm an ejector guy myself, but that strong, sustained hill makes my insides tingle hard.
Iron Rattler’s final dive off the quarry has some of the best airtime I’ve ever experienced. It’s amazing. It is fantastic and I can’t get enough of it. When I rode IRat a couple days ago the ride was flying and it made that dive insanely stronger than I’ve ever experienced and I ride Iron Rattler all the time. That moment delivers every single time.
Sleeping on Magnum XL-200 triangle hills, you don’t know airtime until you ride that thing and it’s trying to get rid of you.
Allow me to explain (I know, I know, a million people already have...) why SteVen's outerbank is so good.
A: why do you bank track on a turn? To convert lateral g-forces into vertical g-forces. Normally this is done inner, so they're positives.
B: You mentioned the hill before the outer-banked hill. The outerbank is basically the same, but because you're turning there are also laterals.
C: what Shilke did was bank it outwards so that _all_ the laterals were turned into negative G-forces. So, you have the amazing ejector from the tophat before it, combined with probably 0.5-1 extra negative g-forces because of the negated laterals.
That's why SteVen's outer-banked hill is so amazing.
Bro, these doodles are the absolute best. Please don’t stop using these.
twisted timbers cammel back hills are probably my favorite airtime moment on a coaster.
the drop off the s turn on the rmc raptors is pretty good especially in the back
Great Video! I think the final run of airtime hills on Phantom’s Revenge deserves a spot on the list. The restraints are soooo minimal, you’re traveling at hyper coaster speeds, and there’s like 5 in a row. All this makes for the craziest ejector I’ve experienced. It’s not the most sustained but it’s some of the most violent airtime.
4:58 as long as two force vectors are less than 90° apart (in this case the hill and banking) they add and accumulate into one greater force vector. Or more simplified, the two forces combine into a bigger one making stronger airtime
I haven’t had the experience of going to that many coaster parks, but I will say, twisted timber’s has my absolute favorite ejector. Those 3 camel backs are relentless and I was absolutely flying.
As someone who's #1 coaster is Skyrush and have been on El Toro as well... SteVen's outer bank is the best moment of airtime I've experienced.
El Toro's double camelbcks are so intense the trains themselves get air time lol
YT just recommended this video for me. But I did want to say the best airtime moment on SV for me is the twisted headchopper airtime hill after the MCBR. Somehow it manages sustained ejector airtime all the way through, and gives you some laterals while it does that. The hill feels like it's going to make you crash into the supports all the way down, and it goes ALL THE WAY to the ground.
Completely agree with your #1 selection. And I also agree with your estimation of SV’s outerbank. To me, that element gets points for being unique, fun, and kind of bonkers, but as far as actual airtime, it doesn’t deliver quite as strongly as many hype it up to. I’d actually put IRat’s quarry dive in that same category. It’s great because it acts as a wonderful finale after a slightly tame middle act, but in terms of airtime, it’s good but nothing mind-blowing. (IMO, iRat’s first drop is probably the highlight of the ride for me.) In the end, I have yet to ride a coaster with more brutal, sustained ejector air than that found on El Toro.
I know this was made before this opened, but that final hill on iron gwazi before the breaks is really fun!
1:05 the wave turn has some REALLY good sustained airtime in my opinion
The best part on IRAT is the first drop in the back hands down I'm a sessional rider for the coaster so I know it like the back of my hand if the coaster dose not slow down at the top u will be flying
The Iron Rattler final dive is for real. If you’ve never experienced it you should. The ride ops have been very 50/50 on if they staple you though and the ones that don’t are the best!
My Favourite Airtime Moment is in the front row of F.L.Y right after the second launch at the big airtime hill... ejector airtime on a flying coaster is just the greatest feeling ever!
Thats certainly an unusual one...
I get what you're saying about the outerbank, but you really need to experience it. It is INCREDIBLE!!! I also love the triple camelbacks on Twisted Timbers, complete bliss!
Its just one of the many reasons I need to get on Steve
I have ridden all of these except for Irat and El Toro. I think those 2 moments could be top and am itching to find out. However, skyrush is absolute bottom of this list for me. The ejector on the triple camelbacks of Twisted Timbers put the ejector on skyrush to shame. I agree with the thoughts on Steve’s outerbank turn. It is a really cool element, but that whole ride gives bonkers ejector and that element though fun and super unique just gives some laterals that are cool, but not worth raving over.
Great video. Interesting perspectives.
I finally rode SteVe two weeks ago and the airtime in the outer bank is so sustained like a B&M hyper but it’s ejector. The best airtime moment is a twisted airtime hill while diving into the structure.
Great thing about lightning Rod is that it has lap bar restraints! Because it’s so fast, it also has restraints as the feet, but they’re super comfortable and allow for some wicked out-of-seat experiences
That final drop on Iron Rattler is SWEET!!!! Both drops provide amazing ejector airtime. I agree it loses a lot of pacing on top of the quarry wall prior to that drop. It really needed an additional element or something up there. Now, that twisty part on top of the wall is pretty fun. If you're not stapled in, you feel like you're about to be tossed out. Yes, the interaction with the quarry wall is really good. You've got to try it in the back, at night.
I rode the back seat of cyclone and my legs were so bruised after lmao. Best painful roller coaster ever lol.
The thing with SteVes is that it’s straight lats into insane ejector. The other hill is great as well though.
Also yeah it looks weak in the POV’s but irl it feels really steep and wild!
I’m surprised you didn’t include the Phantom Revenge’s ending on this list
Or the jack rabbit's double down after the lift hill (it's only good because of the lack of restraints)
Once you ride SteVe late on a warm summer day, you’ll understand why that outward banked hill is so hyped up. Best sustained ejector moment I’ve ever experienced.
It’s weird because I rode it when it was like 85 degrees in august and i barely got any airtime at all I wish I could experience it like the way everyone describes it
I've ridden Steel Vengeance and can explain why the outer bank is more powerful than the normal airtime hill. When you go through a normal airtime hill, all of the airtime is coming from negative vertical g forces produced by the hill. When you curve the hill, that generates lateral g-forces that aren't there on a normal airtime hill. By banking the track outward and curving the hill in the opposite direction, you are converting those lateral g-forces to vertical g-forces (negative, of course). These lateral g forces that got converted to negative vertical g forces are added to the already existing negative g forces you get from the hill itself, hence making it one of the most powerful airtime moments on any coaster
SteVe's outerbank (i think) combines the centrifugal force with airtime and thats why its so good
4:30, you'll understand when you ride
i sure hope so...
i think the strongest airtime moment on any coaster is actually the rolling thunder hill on el toro. the first two camelbacks combined with the first drop seem amazing but the RTH is just stronger than both of them. and yes, it’s also more intense than skyrushs airtime..
the strongest airtime ive experienced is actually a bit of a silly one; the drop on formule 1 at parc saint paul. good lord for the entire duration of that you come straight out of your seat.
the air time on the top hat of the second set of friction brakes on RIP ride rocket is INSANE especially with a loose lap bar
I rode RRR back in my GP days so I wasn't really paying too much attention to the forces, but I dont remember being blown away by them
I live in Texas and haven’t gone to a lot of parks except the two six flags in Texas but I can say the dive off the wall on Iron Rattler is absolutely amazing it send you out of your seat and is so worth the slow pacing on top of the wall
PLEASE SIR....DO YOURSELF A MAJOR FAVOR AND RIDE STEEL VENGEANCE! Especially before you rate it!!! That airtime on the outerbank is surreal!!! I've rode several coasters and I'm an ejector airtime junkie. That outerbank moment gives a bit of both on an "unconventional" path. ESPECIALLY in the back seat! Controlled chaos at it's finest! I LOVE S.V.!!! YET you are completely accurate in regards to "El Toro" it is THE BEST most intense out and back woodie that I've EVER ridden. PURE EUPHORIA (back seat) from that incredible 1st drop with the two camels that follow! Pure BLISS!
I've been on SteVe only twice but from what I can remember, the best moment on that ride is the airtime hill right before the mcbr. The airtime isn't sustained, but damn it's ejector all the way
the reason steve’s airtime is crazy on that hill is because the force you would normally feel as laterals through the turn is converted to airtime, combined with the force of the actual airtime as you go over the hill.
Regular banking tempers and diffuses laterals, but outward banking creates diagonal airtime. Formula: Airtime + outward banked laterals = diagonal airtime.
el toro is absolutely insane. once you get past that turn around, you almost think the ride is over because of the very weak floater hills, but then it hits you with the rolling thunder hill, possibly the craziest ejector moment on any ride. you are THROWN into the lap bar. if anyone is going to ride this, make sure its second to last row. the very last row is quite rough because its a wheel car.
When I was smaller, California Screamin had KILLER airtime it was so freaking awesome... but then I got older and bigger and Incredicoaster didn’t have as good airtime ;(
Im such a noob. Ive been riding coasters and flatrides wrong my whole life. I always pulled myself down to the lapbar whenever i felt airtime xDDDD
Wow! At least you realize it now! Next time, keep those arms up and fly!
@@StamfordBridge whenever I get airtime i just put my hands over my face. Because I usually wear glasses which blocks air from going into my eyes, however for rides, I have to take them off. So whenever I get airtime, my eyes are burning
GabesDaBomb Why not get straps that go around your head and hold the glasses secure? They’re inexpensive but reliable, and you’ll see that a lot of seasoned enthusiasts use them all the time.
@@StamfordBridge I have head straps but they don’t usually fit my glasses and plus I do not suit them at all. Anyway, I tried wearing my glasses on a rollercoaster once and they just got smooshed on my face which was painful
GabesDaBomb Ugh. Sorry to hear it. I don’t wear glasses (except to drive), so I don’t have advice beyond what I already suggested. If I were you, though, I’d start paying attention to other enthusiasts and spotting which ones wear glasses on the rides, and then ask them about their methods if/when you meet them. There are probably enthusiasts who’ve worked through the same issues you are dealing with.
I know this method has helped me with all kinds of little issues at parks.
For Steel Vengeance - as someone who’s also never ridden it, I believe the reason the banking adds so much is because, since the coaster is turning away from the direction it’s banked (making it outer banked) it transfers the lateral g’s you’d be experiencing into negative g’s
you have a nice voice i could fall asleep to it
The 2 giant airtime hills after SteVe’s first drop give great sustained ejector airtime. Your out of your seat for so long, and those hills are huge. The outward banked turn is super fun as well. Also you get a few good seconds of ejector airtime on twisted colossus, specifically on the camel back that goes under the top gun stall, on the blue side.
Banking outward on a curved airtime hill slightly increases airtime because you combine the vertical and lateral forces into one. That hill would get like -0.4 if unbanked, but -0.55 if banked outward, I haven't been on steve, but that's how this works.
OK so I have experienced all of these moments so here is my list:
7: B&M Camelbacks
6: Twisted Timbers Camelbacks
5: Skyrush's Second Airtime Hill
4: Lightning Rod's Quad Down
3: Steve's Outerbanked Airtime Hill (This is a good element)
2: Toro's Camelbacks
1: Iron Rattlers Quarry Dive. I'm sorry I have to explain myself on this. Mostly what you said is true but LEAVE YOURSELF ROOM. You are doing yourself a disfavor by stapling yourself. Also when I was there the ride ops were not stapling. And if they do, before they check, scoot forward and when they have checked your seat, scoot back. (This is the secret to good airtime.) If you do not leave yourself room, then you will not feel this airtime. I rode it at the end of the day. Not like last ride of the night type stuff but like sunset so the ride was warmed up and it was hauling. Most people say that the top of the quarry is a dead spot, and while I did feel it a little, I didn't as much as people say. But anyway there was my advice when you are riding Iron Rattler. Oh yeah last thing wait longer for the back row. Its worth it. Trust me.
Nice vid. Personally, I love floater, flojector, and ejector - it’s all great to me. I’ve been on all the coasters in your video, and for me these are my top three airtime moments (excluding the airtime on first drops): 1. El Toro’s double camelbacks (ejector); 2. Phoenix’s finale run (ejector); 3. Ravine Flyer II’s bridge jump (flojector).
I've heard a lot of good things about phoenix's finale. Its not too far away from me so I'm hoping to get on it soon
Coastoons Phoenix really seems to divide enthusiast opinions in recent years, so if you go I hope you get the kind of mind-blowing experience I got.
Floater vs Ejector. I feel like people don't know the difference. Floater is when negative g's gradually lift you up. Ejector is when there is a sharp change in direction that quickly pops you out of your seat. There is only one ejector moment on SteVe, and it's on the first half of the double up into the mid course brakes. The rest is all float. It tends to come faster and sometimes stronger than on a B&M, but after several rides I've only felt the one ejector pop, and it only really happens in the back half of the train. The outer bank is amazing. Its the strongest moment of floater I've ever felt.
My pick: the ENTIRETY of Twisted Colossus at Magic Mountain lmao I literally feel like I'm on the brink of certain death the moment the train hits the first main drop to the end and on each track. Like holy crap its actual fear that strikes and its CONSTANT airtime, theres maybe 1 to 2 seconds between each element and they're all back to back back and insane. Any POV online will never do the speed, negative forces and absolute ejector airtime to the max justice and it's the the ONE ride I will not put my hands up on, I cannot do it hahaha but it's still one of my favorite rides ever
Phantoms revenge finale
Favorite moment: storm chaser, first camelback
Heide Parks' Colossos is basically El Toro without a twister section but with more and more airtime hills. The ride as a whole is my number one airtime moment
I really enjoy the twister section on toro, in fact I might even prefer it to the rolling thunder hill so I think I would get bored on the helix on collosus but it still looks like a great ride.
@@Coastoons I havent really ridden coasters outside of Germany so i have nothing to compare colossos to. the Helix infact is really forceless and i think its only there so the ride has at least 1 element that isnt an airtime hill :^) the short airtimehops after the helix really bang tho. while downing the helix you expect the ride to be over and boom up you go :d nice finale with a break to take a breath before it
@@Coastoons now 2 years later i Think Ride to happiness drop is the greatest airtime Moment. Backrow and backwards its just crazy, and very intense. Hyperions First drop and Helixs final ejector hill are also amazing
Full Throttle’s top of the loop airtime is crazy to me
I need to get back on El Toro. I rode it early in enthusiasthood and I remember it being amazing. However, it was soured by the fact that I had GP parents that gave me very limited time at the park. I rode it and Nitro twice, the other 5 major coasters once each, and nothing else. Jersey Devil gives me that excuse to go back this summer. I'll probably get a few rides on it, pick up the remaining credits, and several rides on El Toro. Hopefully it's open in May.
Im definitely gonna be at great adventure like a nutzo when Jersey Devil opens. And while I'm there ill be on toro as well
So first things first: SteVe´s outward banked hill isn't one of the best airtime moments on earth. Its great, but not strong enough.
So my currently favourite airtime is on Untamed´s quad hills towards the end of the ride. I also love the final twisted bunny hop on Zadra (but because of the laterals for the most part) and Lech´s small bunny hill before the final inversion.
But what maaaaaaany people don't know about is Nessie's drop of the mid course brakes. With the Schwarzkopf lap bars you can get tons of room, and when you get enough room, you have rapid standing airtime that is super strong and feels lethal.
You forgot Magnum, the airtime over those bunny hills while short is EXTREMELY intense. Also I have how different it is compared to modern computer designed parabolic hills
I wasn’t even in the back on twisted timber’s. In fact I was in the middle and oml that airtime almost killed me it was sooooooo strong
Even as a German that never been in the US I totally understand your ranking. We have some short but intense ejector on some coasters like on Kärnan or Fluch von Novgorod, but I still prefer the airtime on Colossos, the Intamin prefab at the Heide Park. It feels like this shouldn't be possible. Judging by look, height and form of the hills you expected some floater like on B&M Hypers, but you get the full intamin airtime experience. Sadly, I haven' been on GeForce yet.
Other great airtime moments is raging bull’s first drop, Magnum finale, cannibals drop, Steve off axis airtime hill, twisted colossus camelback under the stall
Back row of Screamin Eagle at Six Flags St. Louis damn near hurls you out of your seat on the 3rd to last hill. Never rode anything that flips me up like that anywhere else.
The double dip of Jack Rabbit in Kennywood. You wonder if you are going to land back in the seat.
Twisted timbers hills after the drop are the strongest airtime ive ever felt (possibly second to lightning rod). I’ve ridden steel vengeance and I dont think it’s nearly as strong. I would say I’m expecting the outerbank on pantheon to be insane when it opens.
The best part of Steve is the double hill thing after the mid break run
My all time forever favorite moments of airtime are the 4 last hills on the return on Phoenix at Knoebels. I don't care if it is mostly because of the buzz bars and lack of seatbelts!
I was considering putting that on the list. I might get out to knobels next year to experience it so if I do I'll dig through comments and get back to you
El toro’s hills feel like b&m hypers but ejector skyrush just feels illegal it’s amazing imo 😂
El toros first drop and first camel back is insane. Videos don’t do it justice.
Watched the whole vid. Looks like it was already In here
Jack Rabbit's double-down. Period. No contest. And I've ridden Lightning Rod, Fury, SteVe, Toro, Twisted Colossus and RailBlazer.
I havent experienced an outer banked or a banked airtime hill, but they look fun
If you look at international coasters, Shambalas and Expedition Geforces first Hill and eventually the airtime on Fly would have made the list
Shambhala and GeForce are good picks, but F.L.Y. has barely any airtime. I'd add Untamed and Helix instead
I'd probably put something from helix like those sharp ejector hills or maybe something from hakugei or dc rivals if I opened it up internationally
Imagine a really high fall in a 2D sonic game. Like a good 4-5 second fall. You know how Sonic kinda falls below the screen? That’s the train on SteVe’s outer bank pulling away from you.
The quarry wall dive on Iron Rattler is just plain nasty in the back row.
i can’t tell if i’m being biased but i love the goliath airtime at over georgia
Well, the first one I thought of was pictured at the 0:27 mark.
Wicked Cyclone's double down is good too.
I have not ridden SteVe but keep trying to imagine "what if Wicked Cyclone were as big as Superman?" to make it comprehensible to my Masshole mind.
Shivering Timbers.
steel vengeance turn feels like el toro hills but steve has you by the nuts and is swinging you around in a circle but also up and down at the same time. there it's the best
Trust me I've ridden Steve and outerbanked airtime can be just as strong as normal airtime, and since your off axis it's actually more intense then normal airtime. In the case of Steve's outer bank it's great because it's literally 4 seconds of consistent sustained ejector, unlike the the first hill that starts off as floater and turns into ejector that Isn't even as strong as the outerbank.
This seems to be the general consensus. I need to get on steve bad.
nicely done thumbnail
Thanks! This is one of my favorites that I've done
Banking the track gives more airtime because of the same physics that make wave turns work.
My favorite airtime moment is Steve's outerbank
What's interesting to me is that you definitely got the #1 coaster right but I feel like the wrong element. The rolling thunder hill (final hill before twister section) has to be the absolute most Intense air time I've ever felt and Def my favorite moment on the ride. But I guess I can see the double camel backs TOGETHER being better... That said not even mentioning the rolling thunder hill is criminal.
