kennywood!007 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 So I was at Myrtle Beach for a week. And my parents promised me I could get some pics of Led Zepplin. It looks like it's gonna be amazing. The loop seems HUGE. Odd shaped Cobra Roll. The drop looks smaller than the loop and cobra roll! Yummm. This will be my first sit down zero g roll next year. I'm guessing this is Max RPM. The Premier Launch coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoosh Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Kind of a boring layout thus far.... hmmm.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loco Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 It looks awesome, and you're right, the cobra roll does looks bigger than the drop, heck even the loop does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennywood!007 Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 ^Yeah, when I was driving up, it looked so odd. The cobra roll and loop look about 5-15ft higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRapidsNerd Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Good construction pics! Looking forward to the ride and PoV footage next year. Built an early RCT3 model of it, but it'll need updating here soon.

carolinacaniac Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I agree that the pictures are quite nice. I am hoping to get down there next year when it opens. I just hope this place doesn't pull a Wild West World I know the layout of Led Zepplin the Ride looks rather basic, but who knows, maybe it will still make for a good ride!

niiicolaaah Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Hmmm.... huge elements = forceless. Hopefully I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikomeko Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Looks like any other B&M to me... still would be fun though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kewlcoasterdude Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Kind of a boring layout thus far.... hmmm.... I totally agree with you on this. I don't see what is so exciting about this coaster so far. The only thing that will be neat will be the on-board sound system and the cool color scheme. This is a mediocre looking coaster at best. I hope the other coasters give us something more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Looks awesome, hopefully it will suprise us and be forceful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigstevet07 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Is this going to be a floorless or a regular B&M sitdown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelTheFORCE Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Regular sit down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissorkill2night Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 very niceeee Ill be in Myrtle Beach in a few weeks, if I remember my camera ill drop by for some pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janster Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Hmmm.... huge elements = forceless. Hopefully I'm wrong. That's what I was thinking too. Those large loops, zero-g's and Cobra rolls look a bit like Superman in Parque Warner Madrid, Spain. That huge B&M looper didn't leave that much of an impressioon on me. 1: The beginning was a bit lame and forceless. (It only becam forcefull at the end with some very tight helices and interlocking corkscrews). 2: The pacing wasn't very good. The pace in which the elements will follow each other up will be very slow in this ride. It will definetely not be a thrilling rush like Nemesis at Alton Towers or Black Mamba at Phantasialand.

kennywood!007 Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 very niceeee Ill be in Myrtle Beach in a few weeks, if I remember my camera ill drop by for some pics Theres a nice little rode that pulls into some building right by the park. You can park there and walk up to the fence and get some. And huge loops arnt always forceless. Dominator at Geauga Lake is huge and that thing packs great forces.

jten11 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Thanks for sharing the pics! The layout reminds me of an "out-and-back with loops" Everything just seems like the typical B&M elements, but that not to say that's it's bad. It's been a while since B&M built a regular sit-down coaster. (theres only 3, i think: Kumba, Dragon Khan, and Wildfire). I will definately be there come opening day.

Yeah, there is great hangtime at the top and positive Gs when entering it. It's not the most forceful loop, but it's pretty forceful for being 135 feet tall.
