Image Surprise! thank you CW website!

The newer seats rather than the flat tops, the restraints look a bit more "low cut" than standard. Which I am kinda hoping for. Though who doesn't love sexy Clamshells..

I think that the restraints look the exact same than a standard B&M. Never the less the restraints are still super comfy and allow for some nice airtime if you are not stapled.

Here is a pic of Behemoths restraints. I think they look about the same.

Might just be the concept art but Levy's seem more pointy and angry looking.

I feel like the train type/roughness issue is more a variable dealing with maintenance. I thought Behemoth was great this past fall. Yet my last rides on Goliath at SFOG were insanely rattly and rough. However, if B&M said they'd prefer their more trusty old trains on a new ride like this vs. the "new trains," I guess there's something slightly off about them.

I have no opinion on the trains as I have never ridden a B&M hyper. :(

But I cannot wait to get my butt over to Canada next season and find out!

Favorite element on SkyRush is the Stengel Dive!

Dom497 wrote:^Agreed! First "The World's Longest Brake Run" than a bunch of other pointless arguments including this support "issues". Next we are going to be complaining about the trains, the trim brakes, how slow the lift is, and that the line to get on is too long (I'm not complaining...but I just know these things are going to pop up in someones post).


I find it a lot more interesting to discuss all of the above than reading the same "omg it's so big" replies after every photo update. Yes, it's big. We've known that since the ride was announced with a near-perfect virtual recreation.
However, the color of that backbone support is something unexpected, as it was painted blue in the announcement renders (see attachment).

edit: The park has let me know they will not be repainting it.
