This is my new model that I've been working on.

It has a vertical lift (was a reg but I changed it because I ran out of run) the top half

of the drop is "vertical twisting,” then it goes into a dive loop, then a long

barrel roll/corkscrew. Then I might do a cobra roll, I know I have enough speed for it,

but I don’t know if I'm going to do it or not. And I don’t know

what else I will do I'm just making as I go.

This will be my next to

last model. My finale model will be the kind that started it all, an inverted.


Here’s a pic of what I've done so far.

Wow incredible. Since this is your second to last model

does it mean your leaving after your last one?

Thats really good! I love the dive loop! It

looks nice and smooth! And is that going to be a GIANT corkscrew after that

dive loop! I am looking forward to seeing the finished product! I hope you

don't give up on the site after you finish both of these models!

Wow! Thos inversions are really smooth. How

tall is the first drop? That barrel roll looks very cool. It looks a lot like the B&M

rolls on their floorless coasters. I can't wait to see more pics!

Thanks for the good comments. I'm glad that

every one noticed my main goal of this model, and that is to make it as smooth as

possible. That’s why I will have enough speed for the Cobra Roll

And is that going to be a GIANT corkscrew

after that dive loop!

It's

going to be a barrel roll at an angle. The reason why it looks like a corkscrew is

because I bumped into it, and it pushed it back a little (making look like a corkscrew).

But I will fix next time I work on it.



And No I will not shut

down the site. I just wont be making any more models.

Well I had to stop construction, because I ran out of

room. I also had to take down the barrel roll, because it did not turn the right way to

set up for the cobra roll. Hopefully I will be able to fix the room prob today and start

construction again.

I'm not going to be making any more models due

to the fact that I don't have time and other things are happening in my life.

SSCoasters, a while back you announced a coaster

that was going to have an innovative new support method. Is this that coaster? Or

was that model canceled? I was looking forward to seeing your innovation. Your

current model is looking great. B)

It was on the lift on this one, but I had to take the lift

down and make it vertical. So the new supports will not be on this model.

The curse of Falcon

takes another


Ever since Falcon was complete (last Sept)

I have not been able to make another model. I have gotten the lift drop and an

element, but that’s a far as I can go. Some models stood incomplete for a

month or two till they were taken down. And the same has happened to this model. It

was dismantled tonight, and all the pieces have been put back in the box, and have

been put down stairs. I dont even know why I took it apart. But this has been the first

time in 3 1/2 years that there has not been SS track in my room. It seems as though

Falcon does not want to be out done. It was known as one of my best works, and it

looks like it might stay that way.
