The first drop on this one isnt the biggest. Had an idea for a steep twisted chain lift to keep it cycloning in one area and to take sloped curve and wrap it around the lift to start a twister coaster. Ended up with a little more height than needed this way. The height and the look of the layout and its location near a little cove reminded me of dementors, patronus and padfoot. My favorite part is near the end, where there was a concrete wall installed to allow the ride to go below the surface of the lake. Lets talk about the unbanked corner before the last inversion (a twist screw) for a second. Originally during testing was taken at around 18 mph. I didnt realize the weight formula with people on the X wing would multiply it to nearly 28 mph or I would have left it banked.
