It's looking good, but i seriously hope they are further along than that! Looks like it'll be a good ride with some decent effort put into the surroundings. SF seems to be trying harder to make their new or relocated rides look nice (Apocalypse, this, etc.).

This is looking pretty different. Is this more or less the first of it's kind?
 
Re: SFDK | Superman Ultimate Flight|Premier Rides launch coa

I would think that it is fairly safe to say it is a first of it's kind.
 
Re: SFDK | Superman Ultimate Flight|Premier Rides launch coa

Yes, definitely the first of its kind. Any news of testing or opening date? I would definitely like to get up there to ride it if I get the chance.

Sidenote: It is surprisingly boxier than I would have guessed.
 
Re: SFDK | Superman Ultimate Flight|Premier Rides launch coa

This is by far one of the ugliest creations ever.

I am slightly looking forward to the testing phase of it.
 
Re: SFDK | Superman Ultimate Flight|Premier Rides launch coa

Only thing I don't like about it is that there is no double spine on the drops. I think it would have looked a lot more clean if done so. Still understand from an engineering point of view why it is as it is.
 
Re: SFDK | Superman Ultimate Flight|Premier Rides launch coa

But there probably wouldn't have been any harm in using the double spine...even if it wasn't necessary.
 
Re: SFDK | Superman Ultimate Flight|Premier Rides launch coa

Does this thing have lap bars?

Worst looking ride in the world?

Well...I suppose that's what you get for being extremely compact...I can see many clones of this opening soon!

Its a shame that this coaster only does one complete cycle...I would love to ride that drop twice! :--D

^I think he means "does this not have OTSRs?" It would be a nice touch but I haven't heard any word of that.
