My next roller coaster shall be a 4-5 foot hyper. The layout will be station, turn, lift, drop, hill with turning drop, hammerhead, stengel dive (or turning drop if I have enough space), buckel, downward helix, and 2 turning hops like on Anarchy. I will use probably all of my pieces. Construction should probably start on Sunday after I take down Crevasse. (And yes I will make a final video for Crevasse, I just have not gotten my CD yet!) I will try to make it as smooth as possible. Construction should extend into early-mid June. Please comment!

^Thanks! Yes it is a big layout, but with properly lubed trains, smooth transitions, and long pullups/outs, I think it will be possible. The deconstruction of Crevasse will happen today.

Very good layout. Based on Crevasse I think you could pull this off.

^Perfert, turning into a mini chubs. I was just about to comment on that "luv" thing.

hmm... Im not very familiar with your coasters or designs but this will be a difficult layout. You're going to have to be on a short leash and ask for help alot. Good luck.

^ Don't worry. You were completely justified. It pisses me off when people are so damn lazy. Especially WHEN TYPING. This isn't IM, spell things out.

Good luck on this coaster! Sounds like it's gonna be sweet.

This sounds like a very interesting layout but i don't think you'll be able to get everything in because several of the elements eat up speed so this would have to be talller but feel free to go ahead and suprise me:tmbs

Wow, Thanks for all the comments!

Sirchubs: I think I can probably do it because this is my 5th coaster, and my 2nd hyper, but I will post pictures often and ask for help when I need it.
coasterlover: I have 7ss and 1rr.
Maverix: If I run out of speed, I will turn the helix into a turning hop thing and the turning hop things into a normal banked turn.

Everyone else, Thanks! Crevasse is down, and construction will start after church and I will hopefully have pictures up this evening.

Update! I have gotten most of the lift and the turn before the lift done. I will add more crossties to the lift once I get my black ones. Here are pictures.

The pull-in is too sharp. Besides that it's good.

BTW, orange and blue kind of clash...

i don't know why everyone thinks that the pullin is sharp. it's fine it's the pullin to a lift that is taken at low speeds it doesn't need to be bigger. most pullins to lifts on real coasters are really sharp.
