Personally, I've always liked the standup concept and am glad to see another one being built.

[cal1br3ttoWhy do I still have a donkey title???]

While I do understand the "fad" label and I know stand-ups have various drawbacks, I've enjoyed every installation I've ridden. And I've ridden some of the worst! No problems here with the revival.

[sclissoShe turned me into a donkey! I got better...]

Yeah, I agree. I like the stand up coasters. I mean yeah, it does suck to have your balls crushed,but other than that, I like the feel of them. When I go to carowinds every year, I always get 2-3 rides on Vortex before I leave. I'm really liking that color scheme.

[jamesSI Guess Donkeys Are Okay]

I think its great to see B&M trying new things lately, such as,

A dive loop on a inverted coaster

A loop on a flying coaster

A new wingrider style coaster at Gardenland

And of-course this new zero g roll on a stand up coaster

This is a big step seeing that B&M likes to play it safe.

It looks sort of like Daemonen - not because of the layout itself, but of how tight and compact the layout appears to be.

[GutterflowerBeware of the freeze-dried donkey!]

You can see the layout here. Not a long layout by any means but a dive loop and an immelmen either side of the zero-g-roll is a nice touch.

[A.J.Counts I305 as 32 credits...]

Inclined loop, dive loop, zero-G, immelman, corkscrew, airtime hill, turn, brake run.

I like it!

[tiger01Jar-Jar Binks smells like Donkey]

It's wierd how it's sort of on the side of a steep drop. I like the look of the inline twist though...And to everyone who's going on the China Trip...Enjoy! It's as though China Is building this just for TPRs Trip!

[lankanboy101I just made a donkey in No Limits!]

Where's the inverted coaster and the flying coaster being built?

[Ed FarmerDon't put that donkey on the floor!]

FWIW rcdb has this as rumored only.
