I
think a Zero-G Roll would be cool!
And i would also like to add...
WHOA! I have liked this idea for a long time, but seeing it in Knex!
Amazing! i cant wait to see how it works as a finished coaster!

seen that i said i have SAVED 5.5 feet of track.
And in other news, the
train goes up the lift properly with about a 7:10 sucess rate, the other 3 time i had to
give it a little push, but its all good.

magnets to hold the trains how are you going to get them to release the train for the

The end of Echelon has been completed! Elements are as followed: Drop,
inverted tophat, zero-G roll then finally an uber cool hypercoaster style turn into the lift
platform. The layout may change if anyone has some better suggestions.
EDIT: Due to some confusing of my words, Echelon is not complete, the
Zero-G roll, lift/drop and the uber cool hypercoaster style turn are completed, not the
whole thing.

coaster is bound to be one were talking about for a while. I can't wait to see this
working. The lift idea is increible!!! Keep it up and let's see
some more.

a immelman or dive loop than an inverted top hat. it jsut doesn't seem like a
vekoma element or an element you would see on this type of coaster.
