How About This?

I know it's from I*****N - The company who shall not be named inside BGW but it's impressive in my  eyes.



Of course this is not based on any rumor floating around out there, just an example of what is an option of what's out there.

And I know it's similar to Verbolten but looks like fun to me.

Just my thoughts.
 
What I've heard is that it's because of BGW's VP of engineering. If someone like that tells the park president not to get an I*******n, they won't get one.

giga, not a hyper.(the pic is fury 325)

And yes, I've been to BGW many times, I actually just renewed my platinum pass.
 
A giga is just a taller hyper; they're the same type of coaster. Not to mention that BGW is not allowed to build anything close to 300 feet.

Carowinds added a giga while they already had a hyper, and it worked quite well, and also, why cant they build in the 300's, Mach tower is about 50 ft. shy of it.

Also, Giga coasters are awesome :)
 
Carowinds is the park that CF decoded to pump a lot of money into and should be considered special. Their hyper and giga are also two totally different manufactures. The county wouldn't allow anything that tall, not to mention the footprint required for a Giga isn't something the park has.
 
Technically, B&M doesn't sell Giga coasters. Not sure who coined any B&M as a Giga coaster, but their sales catalog only lists 'hyper' coasters with the sky as the limit. Have a look for yourselve's. http://www.bolliger-mabillard.com/content/home
 
I said giga coaster because a giga coaster is any coaster that is "300ft. To 399ft. tall and makes a complete circuit." Though Fury 325, and Leviathan are hyper coaster models according to B&M, they are still over 300ft.

Also, a giga coaster is just something i would like to ride Bgw even if they it cant happen. I put my prediction of which they could most likely get over yonder in thr concepts thtead i think.(before i discovered this thread)

Edit: Lol, i got 300 post while talking about 300ft. Tall coasters.:p
 
Fury has a very different layout and provides a very different ride experience than Apollo. Initially I thought it a bit silly to have a B&M 200ft hyper and 300ft hyper in the same park but Fury convinced me that B&M still knows how to vary their designs.

There's no solid height limit imposed upon the park. Would it be a battle? Maybe. Would it have to be sky-colored? Probably. I think you would end up seeing it approved though (assuming it was on the correct side of the Rhine).
