  • This RMC conversion of the original Medusa transformed an old CCI wooden roller coaster into a state of the art hybrid. It was also RMC's first international project!

      Our legislators do not focus on that because there are practically three or four amusement parks in all of Mexico with roller coasters and a presence similar to or very close to Six Flags.

    • @LugnutsK
      @LugnutsK Před 2 lety +19

      This is an ridiculous idea. No state in the USA has any specific limits on forces or “element” frequency. ASTM International publishes limits on forces but these are industry guidelines, not laws. Amusement parks follow them because it’s in their best interest to keep parks safe for their customers.

    Now you just need to go back to Europe for Untamed and Zadra and you’ve ridden every rmc. Then you could do a remaking of your RMC coasters list with all 22

    RMCs layouts are so much more creative than everyome elses, always looking for thst little extra pop of airtime, ir a subverting element like a wave turn you thought was going to be a corkscrew.
    There probably are staff at the other companies that would want to design this but have been shot down by their higher ups for it being too crazy. Then RMC comes along and makes a llad of the best rides ever seen and suprisingly enough everyone loves them. And they're actually way cheaper than the big fancy steel coasters

    One suggestion for future videos... could you please include the metric conversions with ride stats? It helps when comparing with international rides & is a more inclusive experience for an international audience as it helps us appreciate the ride stats at the same time as American viewers 👍
    For example, 58 miles per hour sounds slow when the average residential street in Australia is 50-60 km/h... much more impressive when you understand that it's actually over 90 kilometres per hour, which is highway speed 😊

    This ride pulls amazing forces for being under 100 feet. There’s so much ejector airtime around the layout and I could tell it’s more of a mixed experience with airtime and just the coaster using it’s Terrain. That off axis hill and hill after the over bank are both pretty strong and give great ejector. Overall experience 7/10 because the operators do staple you every time, or maybe i had a bad day with bad operators, the qeue is VERY long and often not very full, and there is a pothole at the bottom of the drop.
