It's better, but you should try to make the two sides of the crest symetrical.

Ok I will fix that CF11. Thanks for all the comments guys. I am changing the name again because of theming purposes. After I make the lift symetrical next up is the drop.

Don't forget middle tubing, I hope your drop comes out great.

if this is a floorless, it shouldnt be as steep

Uhh yes it can be this steep:Hydra the Revenge (Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom)

My bad, i meant the lift hill.

[~stεεlspectrum~]

It would look much better if you used hinge joints to make the lift less steep.

[coasterfanatic11]

^Yeah, isn't that why you were gonna do that for your floorless?
Not much more to comment on.

Just a small update on the coaster. Uh I am putting on the hinge joints to not make the lift so steep. Also I have made the crest WAY better. I am going to start the turn tomorrow so that I can start on the drop. Pictures in about 2-3 days.

[NitroDude319]

Ok I have more pics. I PERFECTED the crest and will continue the coaster. I didn't add the hinge supports because I think that the coasters lift looked better how I had it.

It's better if you stagger the flexi's in the crest. That way, the track sections will actually be connected to each other, and it will be sturdier. Also, attach the crest to the structure more, it goes like 8 inches without being connected.

[NitroDude319]

^ ok I am working on that right now. I noticed that when I had just posted the pictures. More Comments!

[~stεεlspectrum~]

That crest is really big, but it might look okay. And the flexi thing DDRman said...

[BBaller347]

The gear is WAY too high up. I also think the crest is too big. Smooth, but too big. Also layer flexis on crest (what DDRman said).

[NitroDude319]

^ The gears are fine how they are. The crest is big because it was the only way I could keep it from getting too steep to fast. I also staggered the flexis. Pics soon.

[NitroDude319]

Well I mine as well tell you guys this now. I am taking this coaster down until I get somemore granites/yellows. I need to take it down because the support tower collapsed and the whole coaster went with it. This coaster is NOT cancelled though. Construction will start up again in about 2.5 weeks.
