My 22 foot 6 inch coaster

Blast The Sky. If you sift through some old old old forums. You can see my

construction photos of my structure. Even though that wouldnt' be an easy task.

I would've took more pics of it but I stopped cuz everybody was knocking it cuz

it was just a huge tophat.

It should be titled Blast the Sky and it should be in the

construction forum in Screamin Serpent Coasters. As for where it's at. I have

no clue.

i looked through there and didnt find anything. im not

doubting you its just that if there is no proof then people wont be happy with it.

also if you have some records please say what the record is, what coaster it

was on, and who did it.

I think they did a forum

change like oh like last march or something. So maybe it was in that one. Which

I'm not completely sure. I really don't care about the record. People can

think what they want.

I might try to smoke that record in spring anyhow.

Well, I have a coaster that has the largest immelman

at 3 feet. I also have the tallest flying coaster and inverted coaster that does not use

boosters. I also have the tallest and only stand up coaster. ;)

I also found

the topic of the 22 footer. Just go click on coastermaniacsteve's s/n and then go

to find all posts by this member. It is on page like 7 or 6. Although the pics have been

cleared form the forum so you can't view them. :(

im planning to beat record for tallest inversion. 4ft.

Now to make things clear it might not count because im using rr boosters. And last

dont put my name in yet because im not done and i still need to take some pics so as

of now westside 7th still holds the record.(im right behind you :) )

Yes, the tallest vertical loop was

3'4'' on Banshee. I dunno if these would be records but Banshee

had 3 lifthills and 2 helixes. Is there a coaster out there with 3 lifts besides Banshee?

What about one with 2 helixes?

I don't know if there is a record set for the

longest roller coaster (track length not time), but I am planning to set that.
