Hello guys, If you read my last post on Talon then you'll know i'm making a new coaster, not only that, but it's got some very challenging restrictions. First, it has to be in a 6x21 granite rod platform. Second, it has to be finished in 3 days. Third, this will be my first tube supported coaster. Wish me luck.

Construction so far:








Please comment on any improvements I can make.

You could support the drop more and bank it more, but that is all I can critique on.

Thanks, I added some supports and I'm happy with it.

I'm basically ahead of schedule with this and it's great, tube supports are amazingly strong. I'll let you look:

I was basing it more on coasters like Olympia Looping.

I, for one, am very impressed, especially with this being your first tube coaster. It's quite strong, but then again, your train isn't weighted.

Correct, I really hope I don't have to weight them because I want this to be strong. Weights would kill that. The layout I have in mind should allow me to keep it not weighted.

it's awesome dude but like ever one else said already.... Bank It! if you do you'll get more speed but obviously don't want to do that. I just repeat things cause i'm a stuipid American!

Nice coaster you've got there dude, for some strange reason I'm reminded of Nemesis @ Alton Towers (it's probably the loop and turnaround)

I also love the support on the left in the second-last picture, really random but yeah, me likey

Wow, I love your coaster! You picked the perfect layout.
