Yes, I know it's a double post.

Started on the twist of the immlemann. I don't think it looks right, but I'm not sure what it it.

(I know it's not supported, I'll support it later. I'm copying TH's idea.)

It looks a little too spread out. It needs to be steeper. I'll judge the rest when it's completely supported....

^Actually if you build it right, flexis work very well on immelmanns.

^^you really have no clue what your talking about. The twist is fine. There are absolutely no bumps at all, just some sagging because he isn't done yet.

Damn, that was fast.


Mophead, watch out, some experienced members might go karate on your ass.

Mr.FreezeFreak: I'm glad you like the flexi's.

Rollerdude: Wow-thanks. It feels good coming from someone as experienced as you.

Ok. I'll support it and do the other side. Updates probably tomorrow.

I think I can see a straigh part on the twist in the last pic. Other than that, it's great.

^^ Please use punctuation and capitalization. I could barely read what you wrote. Also, you can make your own thread for your coasters. If you do those things, you'll get more respect. I'm sort of new too, so maybe I'm not the one to tell you....lol.

Knex is my god: Thanks. Yes, it runs well.

Crazywhizz100: Right... That's spamming. Do it enough and you'll get yourself banned. And please use grammar/punctuation.

DMJK: It might be. I'm not sure.

Mr.FreezeFreak: I fixed the straight part. Thanks.

Ok. Pix: (Ignore the sharp turn on the bottom, I'll take it down.)

Are the immelmanns the same size? The red and yellow tracked one's twist looks longer than the purple and green ones. I think it is just the angle though. But yeah, fix the pullout. The rest looks good.

told you that you had the speed.
looks great
i think you should have one do a loop
then have the other do a zero-g-roll through the loop, underneath the lift.
