Roller coasters can twist, flip and turn in so many different ways. Let's take a look at them!

To sum up this list in a sentence: Intamin and S&S are weird

I’ve started taking shots every time you use a food metaphor.
I died of alcohol poisoning two years ago.

Ah yes, the ol' "Spicy fried chicken sandwich slider" simile. Truly a classic.

We have an onride with the g-force data of the Non-Inverting-Cobraroll, if you‘re interested :)

I love the name "junker". The idea of theming a ride to scrappy experimental vehicles is really charming to me, and I'd love to see more like it. Maybe even in the style of mythbusters

[raviamodernepic]

"the bs ghost shows" lol agreed

[ThemeParkAvenue]

The Windcatcher Tower is certainly a fitting name. It’s one of my favorite parts of Cheetah Hunt.

I went on Kondaa yesterday (best coaster I've ever ridden, and I have 72 credits). So here is my review of the non-inverting cobra roll: It's definitely a very fun element. It really feels like you are about to go through an inversion, yet you never fully go upside down (you get very close to it though). To me, it's actually one of the less intense moments of the coaster that adds more diversity to this air-time filled attraction.

Has there ever been any coasters you were genuinely scared to ride?

[mikethewhizz]

Without the fans demanding to keep the Whizzer operating, we wouldn't have the maxxforce we know today

I’ve been watching you for 3 years! I’m so happy when you upload!!

That non-inverting cobra roll on Kondaa is simply amazing, rode it twice last month and it's easily one of my favorite coasters I've ridden up to date.

0:32 "They named another element after a cobra? That's really all they could think of? Come on, there's other snakes out there, why not call it the Viper Loop? Oh wait, that's already used. Well there's Black Mamba, or just regular Mamba. Anaconda? No, we don't want another one of those. Oh! I got it! We'll call it the Mole Snake Loop!"

[timk]

Funny how a cobra roll gets it name from taking the shape of a striking cobra, but a non-inverting cobra roll looks more like a dog tongue than even the dog tongue double inversion does. As you say semantics are fun!

[Artbyhurricanyounot]

Damn, who knew Drachen Fire would leave a “positive” impression with the dive drop. Thank goodness Steel Curtain seems to have improved it!

[coastercreativity]

The dog tongue on maxx force is AMAZING! Did it yesterday. You literally hang upside down for a while on the curves up and down!

[JamesonThomas]

I always wonder about future unique elements we haven’t thought of yet. What will the future of coasters bring?

[firstflowerinspace]

Put “Never Underestimate Intamin” on a t-shirt and I’d get it

[wsmith]

"travel channel (before they started doing nothing but BS ghost shows)" is SUCH a mood, their shows were where i first became familiar w/ so much of this world as a little kid i would've never known abt kingda ka otherwise, it sucks they never show cool park stuff anymore

[slpt_]

Cheetah is such an enjoyable ride too!
