This is the only reason to want a time machine. Out of that whole experience, I bet the "tricky track" would be the final thing to do me in. (blew my mind first time I saw footage of that) What a beautiful, brutal, punishing ride.

Is the "Tricky track" the bit near the end where is twists back and forth on the straight section? Because that is basically what all my wooden coaster did in Roller Coaster Tycoon as a kid, was actually a little disappointed when I rode my first wooden coaster in real life that it didn't have that.

This might be too rough for Knoebel’s! They don’t see to want extreme rides (which is good to make it a family park where kids can go on all types and not miss out while some adult has to hang back to watch them).

This ride was insanely ahead of its time

I read that this didn't have any trim brakes mid way in the ride. It was also so violent that many people didn't ride it again and the extreme forces kept damaging the structure. Injuries were not uncommon. There was always some kind of repair work being done and it never had a full week of running normally. I don't know if I would be brave enough to ride this.

This is a great simulation. The only thing missing is the background (Lake Erie, the dance hall and the rest of Crystal Beach that was visible from the ride).

I would love to ride this. With all the science and technology available maybe they can remake this ride.

GCI (or RMC) should rebuild this ride, either in Niagra Falls or at Wonderland. With their technology today, they could fix the danger spots with minor adjustment.

Cyclone was a wood-hybrid coaster. It had a steel structure, which is why it was able to last even as long as it did.

Little mention of how much steel was used. Many relatives i mine rode it. they are all dead now though. I don't remember them mentioning anything about the structure. I heard stories of it being pretty rough and lot's of people became sick. I do know that if anyone could recreate it and make it last, it would be RMC.

I would love if some company hired Rocky Mountain to design a clone of this coaster. This would match their WTF Not Mentality. I mean that In a good way as I've ridden 3 RMC's.

Reportedly, certain sections of the coaster had a constant shower of loose change, eye-glasses cases, & house keys, that had been flung out of Cyclone riders' jacket pockets and breast pockets! Can you imagine what was going on in the minds of patrons, awaiting their ride turn in the cue, with the smell of vomit wafting past them?

It's like one of those death coasters people make on no limits 2, but this was real.

This is SO realistic. Great job :)

1:35-1:40 would have to been the cause for neck problems. I read where the coaster smelled of puke. I have ridden 112 coasters as mean as Son Of Beast when it had the loop but this one is too dangerous.

James, you are amazing ......thank you!

Noticed trim brakes were used at 1:11 in this simulation. Did trim brakes actually exist on this coaster at that point in the ride?

@Ffwee

9 жыл бұрын

Yes they did. I can't comment on how much they actually slowed down the cars, but they were located exactly as shown. From what I've read, the figure 8 section that followed was particularly memorable. The cars zipped through so fast, folks didn't know which way was up. I've often wondered why this coaster has the rep that it does. I think this demo clearly demonstrates the reason: with the exception of those trim brakes, there was no "down" time in the entire ride to allow folks to catch their breath.

The tight bank turns coupled with the 60 mph top speed emitted lots of lateral g forces on passengers

From old videos and what I've heard about this ride you did a very good job of replicating it. Would it ever be possible to do this for the Palisades, NJ Cyclone?

this is good, but not quite accurate of the actual cyclone of Crystal beach1920's-1940's, if you look at some of the actual pics and footage on-line there are no guardrails, and accompanying walkways, and many places where the cross ties below have gaps......

The anaesthesia coaster but helixes instead of loops!

Would it be too much trouble to re-film this with a fixed mount?

Can gci or gravity group please make this?

GCI or The Gravity Group needs to remake this for a smaller park

Was there really a brake before the figure 8?

WAIT... you did not make this because this is the official recreation by the NL2 Team
