I wish he didn't tare it down. It truly was the BEST back yard coaster. The only one that feels like it was a real coaster credit. Unlike the crap one everybody is talking about where they shive you from a high point.
Your coaster is magnificent! It has always been a dream for me to have one of my own. However, the true beauty to this story is how your Dad supported you completely in this endeavor. He also fully believed in your ability to build it correctly. Otherwise he would have never climbed that hill to take a seat. 🎢❤️
This is hands down one of the best backyard coasters I've seen. Well thought out and very well put together, not to mention appears to give a short but very thrilling ride. Great Job!
This is awesome. Mine pales in comparison but, then I was a freshman in 1972. when I built this. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5aDBsgU-wCY.html
If kids showed up with a quart of white paint and a paint brush, they could exchange their labor of painting that quart of paint onto the coaster's woodwork for a couple go-arounds riding on it? The Coaster would be painted and would look great as well as the kids having had rides on it.
I never said they would be cheap, I am determened to do it someday. Even if it talks a life time to save up the money/ land and get the knowledge to do it.
VestedUTuber Oh please! me and the neighborhood kids used to make down-hill coasters using 2x4s and the sled I got for Christmas. It snows in Georgia once in a blue moon, so I got more used out of the sled that way.
Doug Briglmen I like your style. jesternario I really wouldn't call that a coaster. If anything, you reinvented the old Russian artificial sled hills that are generally considered the predecessors to roller coasters.
