It looks a lot like Talon, I'm really excited to ride this thing.

60mph
4 inversions

I dont see talon..


Looks cool though.

[CoastsToCoasters]

Yeah from the drop to the curve after the immelman....Looks like a good fun inverted though. The videos are cool. Well B&M are a little focused on weightlessness. Look at Goliath and Patriot. The s turn hill looks fun but I would've liked it better as an inversion.

[DejaVuGurl1203]

This looks pretty awesome, and does look a lot like Talon. I won't be around the Kansas City area any time soon, so my chance of going there is unlikely, though I would love it if I could so I can ride this.

After viewing those videos I must say it doesn't look that exciting. It isn't nearly as busy as, say, B:TR, It just doesn't appear to "move" much. But, they're only videos, so I'm not ruling out that it's a pretty decent ride. I guess some of us will know come next year.

4 Inversions

[CoasterDude12-2]

Looks like it's done already. Nothing new. No new inversions, or height, only 4 inversions, we have 5. Looks alright, I guess.

[FParker185]

it looks like Talon that has been Lamed down by quite alot. On the plus side, no pricey trips to Kansas City for me next year. (though it really depends on what Adventureland adds)

[EagleFan344]

I only count 4 inversions.

[haydawg149]

why would you go to Adventureland, and i dont think they'll be adding thing anytime soon, as they are not a very competetive park . . .



i think Patriot looks sweet, as i will be down there for opening day(SO MY DAD SAYS)

[FParker185]

Adventureland adds new attractions every other year with this year being the off year, they usually get fairly major attractions (least year was the USA's first Moser Sidewinder, which is an outward facing frisbee).

Also recently added there have been the country's first spinning rapids ride, 00' saw 3 new rides. And they have the only operating Zamperla Mixer in the US.

And in the past few years Tornado has been entirely retracked and runs incredibly.

One of my favorite parks here in the US.

[haydawg149]

Tornado was rough last time i was there, and Sidewinder is the best ride there besides Outlaw . . . i went to Adventureland last year and Mixer was closed . . .

[FParker185]

yeah, Mixer is an electrictal nightmare, which is why there arent more, though Mixer has been open every time I've been there, at least for part of the day. Skyride is really neat to.

[sxflgshh14]

that ride looks really fun from the pictures

[Raging_Bull]

I only count 4 inversions.

yeah there are 4 sorry, WoF thought that they would call the "inclined loop" an inversion.

[batman1150]

[haydawg149]
