I hope that you, on the basis of the photos, can guess on which coaster I'm basing my new project.











NOTE: Please don't comment on the second drop. I will change it, so it goes under the lift hill.

Looking good, so this is probably going to be a classic style woodie? The lateral supports are also very nice .

Wow great job, I can't wait for more!

[RNB]

Looks great, and based on your avatar and layout I guess this will me a kind of Pegasus (Efteling) If so, awesome!

[Maxwell58]

Dang! This is pretty good. I love it when people make old style woodies like this one. YEW MUST CONTINUE!

[Witting]

isnt that "joris en de draak" but not a dueler or am i wrong

[Haaron05]

this is looking pretty sweet!

I was going to guess Phoenix at Knobels. Whatever it is, it looks nice so far.

[felesgustos]

Yes Stig, you're right. Phoenix (Knoebels Amusement Park & Resort) is the coaster where I'm basing this project on. I let this coaster maybe participate in summer heat and I will use it as my final school project. I must now go to work, but maybe tonight I'll post an update of the first two airtime hills.

Thanks for the comments!

A double post, but an update. I've built the first two airtime hillsand I'm not happy about it. I plan to build it over again today to get closer by the real ride, unless you say it's fine like this. Here are the photos that you can base your opinion on:

I really do like the air time hills. You shouldn't change them. They look fine

[Jumpge]

I don't know what you don't think is fine about them, but if your ay your not happy with them, then I guess your change will make them look even better than they are now!

[RNB]

Just like Jumpge said, I have NO idea what is wrong with it now, but if you think you can make it better surprise us!

These airtime hills look pretty nice, the only thing you should do about them is: Layer the crossties

I hope you find this airtime hills even better.

Well, I wanted it more to look like the real coaster. So longer and lower hills. I hope that has been achieved.

The crossties are layerd so bad, becauce there splits the tubing. I think I've fixed it with this new hills.

I've rebuild the hills and made the next hill. I'll clean my cars and hope that he makes it then.

So is this a recreation of Phoenix or just a coaster based off of Phoenix?

It's only based on Phoenix. In the next update I have for example added a small airtime hill to come to 10 airtime moments. Also, not every hill is so steep as the real ride. But for the rest it seems very similar to Phoenix. Thanks for your comment!

I have an update for you. It contains 5 photos and a movie. I doubt what I should do with the douple-up. I think I will make him a little lower, so they get more airtime. What do you think??

I'm not a huge fan of the whole bumpy section. It kills speed faster than normal, and it is a little too unconventional. It technically looks fine, it just doesn't suit your coaster as well as I'd like.
