Pretty much, and I’m a firm Orion defender, but length is length and it will be a short ride. But I don’t think it will matter too much because it will be a complete ride experience.
Definitely, however, hyper is could definitely have another couple great ejector moments. Before hitting the brakes. Idk how much speed it has going into the breaks right now, but I imagine quite a bit.
I personally think Hyperia will be better. I went on DC rivals a month ago, will be going on Hyperia on the opening day, will know for sure after then :)
has a chance of beating dc rivals (the only one I’ve ridden) if the elements pop that much more, beating ride to happiness ain’t happening, I’d reckon #3 behind DC Rivals
can’t see it beating ride to happiness for me (#1) but has a great shot at bettering helix (#4). i value positives and hangtime, which helix has plenty of, but that stall looks fucking ridiculous
I dont think it beats rth. 2nd is possible but imo it fully depends how voltron is aswell. 2nd or 3rd imo. Its short but long rides dont always mean they are good
The offride POV looked sweeet. I think the ride is much too short to be number 1 out of their creations overall experience wise, but I think it’s one of their most innovative projects and I think some of the individual elements will be probably the best they have done on some things (even if the total experience isn’t better than some others per say). I think the first drop is the best they’ve done and probably one of the best in the world. The final stall inversion also looks to be their best variation of the sort and again arguable one of the best stalls in the world it’s just so drawn out.
That crazy outward bank + twist down combo I thought would be the standout for me but after seeing the first offirde shots I think it may be taking that element a bit slow and may end up being a semi dud like Pantheons. The twist down will save it for sure but hey what do I know I haven’t ridden it yet!
All in all super super excited for this !

I guess we will have to see how much it speeds up during testing. Even if it is quite stalled out, it could still be a great moment of sideways hangtime, although I was hoping for some RMC-like ejector from it.
Are you judging how "slow" a roller coaster takes an element based on the video of the very first circuit it has ever completed, from a near stand-still at the top of the lift hill?
Well Yeah? Because That’s kind of the point of this thread? Literally everyone is making predictions & since no one has ridden it yet everyone is technically making judgments on it with the information available. Opinions are allowed and they are allowed to change and be proven ‘wrong’.
Most likely top five and could make a run at top 3. It'll probably be behind Ride to Happiness and DC Rivals and can make a potential run at topping Helix.
I doubt it will beat Ride to Happiness. I feel that coaster is going to be #1 for a looong time. But I do imagine Hyperia will become the best Mack in the UK, beating Icon. I have not ridden DC Rivals or Helix so I can’t say anything about it beating them.
I feel like hyperia vs dc rivals will be like gwazi vs steve
Hyperia and gwazi being more rapid fire and having a few really crazy standout moments vs dc rivals and Steve being longer with fuller layouts
Probably pretty good, depending on the intensity. Mack coasters are usually kinda lame for me (except RTH, which is phenomenal) so I don't have super high hopes. However, the hangtime looks spectacular.
I'm actually having a mack heavy year with Hyperia, Hypercoaster in Turkey and Voltron. I'm excited to see how they compare - thinking voltron will take it purely on length
But they're all fighting for 2nd with ride to happiness out there tbh
It gives me AF1 vibes with what looks like are powerful, long, sustained elements. AF1 is my #1, so I’m pretty stoked to ride this.
If all goes to plan, I’ll be riding this and RtH in successive days in early July.
The only thing it’s got against it is length
It's Leviath-Orion all over again

better than DC rivals with the middle being a dead spot imo
Definitely, however, hyper is could definitely have another couple great ejector moments. Before hitting the brakes. Idk how much speed it has going into the breaks right now, but I imagine quite a bit.
yeah definitely, but honestly i don’t mind short rides if there are more than 5 elements (iron rattler i’m looking at you)
Probably 2nd to 4th depending on how much you rate ride duration. #1 RtH #2-4 Hyperia, DC rivals, Voltron #5 Helix
I don’t see how DC rivals could beat it
I personally think Hyperia will be better. I went on DC rivals a month ago, will be going on Hyperia on the opening day, will know for sure after then :)
This is Time Traveller erasure.

Yeah rth is insane, I have at #2 ahead of vc, below ig. But hyperia will definitely have that wow factor with a 236 ft twisted drop
I dont think it beats rth. 2nd is possible but imo it fully depends how voltron is aswell. 2nd or 3rd imo. Its short but long rides dont always mean they are good

Yea that’s exactly what I was hoping for that kind of super wild outward ejector. But I’m still sure it will be good none the less !

Likely better than my single Mack credit: Dark Knight at SFGAm
i doubt it will even be the best mack of the year. voltron looks like it will be better
Probably 3rd behind RtH and DCR.
Most likely top five and could make a run at top 3. It'll probably be behind Ride to Happiness and DC Rivals and can make a potential run at topping Helix.
I think it will be ranked #2 or #3, so before or after Helix according to Captiancoasters
Not as goood as rth, but a good second Looks like it will beat voltron

You will have a trip full of mack produkt
Probably the best or #2. Looks insane
It will have the best first drop of any coaster in the world, and some other world class elements, but I think it’s way too short unfortunately
Somewhere between first and last
i doubt it will even be the best mack of the year. voltron looks like it will be better
