Hey, I was just wondering what everybody thinks will be the roughest part of the BA, after all, the ride is a Vekoma. ;)

I voted the whole ride because from the way the trains are on the flyers, and from my experiences on X-Flight and Batwing, it really isn't possible for one single element to be 'rough.' It's simply a matter of the entire ride (the trains) having a bad vibration sometimes.

How are the transitions on the Vekomas? I've hear that when you invert while you're flying...saying going from the flying position into the lay down position going into the loop and exiting...are rough. Is it a sudden invert/turnover when you go into it/out of it? Or does it give you some room and spread out the invert? Did all that just make sense?

I've heard the loop is the best part of it (and that first inversion after coming up the lift.)

When does SFOG open? I need a pretzel fix :)

I'm not quite sure about that...


I voted for Overall Roughness, just because the Vekomas I've been on are rough throughout. I hope that BORG will be different though.

I voted whole ride, because like said above, it is Vekoma. I'm sure the Lift Hill will evan be Hellish.

Max,

The transitions weren't really bad at all. Some of them were quite rapid, but I actually thought that added to the ride. The loop, while not quite Superman, is quite intense.

I would think the horseshoe would be the most rough part of the coaster.
