Great stuff, and the forces feel a lot more varied/manageable than a lot of older B&M inverts. Too many constant high positives make me nauseous but this one feels like it has a nice mix of forces.
Still hoping someone will build a new gen invert with modern elements but the sustained positives of the 90s inverts.
Both old and new have their qualities! I like this one a lot though. :D
I love how you implemented this cobra roll. The ride is on the smaller side, so not a lot of height for the cobra roll.. Fanning out the tops of the element wider than the base gives more room for the tight curve at the crest at these low speeds, so pacing is still there and the train would track nicely through it. And ya got the tops of them, from what I can tell in the vid, to the same height! Nice touch!
Ya, great ride. Shaping is looking great, unique element choice, order, and layout, capacity looks good, good colors...
Is Glacier Gliders a great name, though..? No.. Sorry. lol seems more like a family or kiddie ride name for me. Everything else about it though is solid. Provided it passes clearance ;) the cobra and turn after the first wingover are pretty close!
Yeah, that cobra roll gave me a lot of trouble when I was making the layout. It practically forced me to make it like an inverted version of Hydra's cobra roll. Even then, the twist still felt a bit too tight despite not having that extreme of a roll rate. It took a lot of fidgeting to get to this iteration.
I'm not entirely confident in the name either. All I knew is that the "theme" of the ride combines flying over some sort of cold environment. Glaciers = cold, gliders = flight, so I found Glacier Gliders to be a good enough name.
And yes, the clearance is fine there, but there is no wiggle room. If it was just a few inches closer, the clearance envelope would clip the left rail of that flat turn...
The glacier express is a train riding around the glacier mountain, wy not use the name for this coaster?
That would probably be a better fit for a train themed coaster model like a Vekoma mine train, not a standard B&M inverted coaster, in my opinion.
Because the glacier express is the self admitted slowest express train in the world
