Most unique new B&M since...a while ago?

Lots of alien-contacting antennas near the end, too!

While the layout is really, really awesome...the shaping and pacing is just as gentle as ever :(

I don't usually like to judge anything by a video, but that left me really disappointed. It just crawls and glides around and B&Ms are so easy to predict.

That was exactly what i was thinking when i watched it too!

But i will admit that i can't really judge whether it has low pacing or if it's the camera making it look like that...

Is it just me or is that the smoothest and sexiest B&M ever? I don't know, but it looks kickass! I also spot some airtime. :)

I had no idea this coaster existed; just checked it out at RCDB.com. Very, very cool.

A lot has been said about Wild Eagle's setting/placement. This is a whole new level.
"Next, we are going to solicit the children of strangers so that we can go on a ride designed for children. This is so I can post online and impress other people who are very good at procuring unfamiliar children in order to go on rides designed for children, and thus have a higher arbitrary number than me."

Piraten is *the* roller coaster (after finally riding Expedition Geforce, I'll admit, it was pretty freaking awesome to!) .

I think that this is the most unique and probably the most forceful B&M we have seen in a while. The transition from the loop to the dive loop is very different and the parts between the last inversion and the brake run were very cool. This ride really never lets up on the speed it seems.

Most unique, yes. Forceful? Doesn't look like that so much. It really drags through a lot of the course, especially the barrel roll. It looks great from off-ride, and I'm sure it's plenty of fun on-ride, but it definitely looks as tame as ever.

I wonder why B&M started looking at ejector air....
