Hahaha he must be warped...
I like it but the entrance into the overbank is so straight and not amazing looking, in my opinion. I would pull the overbank back some and not make it as steep.

Love it. ^ I disagree. I very much like the way it looks. I think that if he gets the pull-out in the right spot it'll look great.

I think the pull in needs to be bigger and more like the pullout of the drop. And I usually don't go over 45 degrees in steepness on an overbank, and that's already pushing too steep.

Do a barrel roll!
Posted 25 September 2008 - 09:19 PM
I was afraid I'd have to do this, but...
Here comes Thunder Dolphin and its steep overbanked turn!
(Sorry, but people are way too stupid to get any good pictures of that turn - they care more about the rest of it!)
And I may change the bottom of the pullin.

I don't think that is necessary. This way it's tight in a nice way, making it look like it pulls 5G.

I made the pullout of the drop to have nice 'n high G's, and the overbanked turn just ended up that way.

Wow that is a steep pull-in. But I still don't like the look of your overbank. If you just made it less steep like mostly all other Intamin Coasters, it would look good.

I think this is partly my fault... I forgot to show you guys an actual side view.
The red is 45 degrees.
(By the way, the orange line is the path of the train - the outer rail makes it look extremely straight while it's actually banking.)
The rest of the overbanked turn is only a little steeper than the pullin, absolutely no more than 55 degrees.

ok... you see now that looks really good haha. I am pretty sure the pull-out/in makes it look weird and straight. That right there is a beautiful overbank.

It looks a little weird form picture 3 and 5 I thing you need to make it flare out more as it's going up.
It looks like it just goes strait as it goes up besides the banking.
it might just be me though.
that sorta looks like a hammer head/over bank turn.
