This basically looks like a much better Full Throttle to me. It's still short and sorta gimmicky... But assuming that is a really, really forceful air-launch, I'm onboard. Honestly, most of those inversions are pretty intriguing as well.
Assuming S&S can actually open this ride sometime next season (preferably for more than a couple weeks), this looks like a winner.

LSMs can't deliver the sheer acceleration hydraulic and pneumatic launches can.I don't understand why they are using an Air Launch when everyone is switched to LSM, they even offer LSM model coasters in their catalog. Intamin doesn't even use hydraulics their Accelerator Coaster models anymore, they use LSMs as well.
LSMs can't deliver the sheer acceleration hydraulic and pneumatic launches can.
I can't wait to experience the best acceleration in the US, ever since missing out on HyperSonic XLC.
My launch experiences on (and off) the deck of the USS Theodore Roosevelt were a bit more intense. ?0-78 mph in under 2 seconds. You're experiencing far and away the most intense launch in North America.
um...LSMs can't deliver the sheer acceleration hydraulic and pneumatic launches can.
You did not miss much. It was over before it started.I can't wait to experience the best acceleration in the US, ever since missing out on HyperSonic XLC.
And I thought Apollo was looking rough... please paint Raging Bull.
That's what they said on Reddit.Same trains as Steel Curtain?
