Actually, The Beast will be breaking its own length record when it opens back up in May, after the retrack, and reprofiling of the first drop is done. So technically, the longest wooden coaster record is zero years old? Gravity Group is making it 2' longer with the steeper 1st drop, and easier pull out. I wonder if Gravity Group will be able to lay claim to this record now?

People never really seem to mention that Montana Rusa in Mexico was around 8,000 feet long if you count both sides together (it was a mobius loop rollercoaster, so it was all one track). So in reality, The Beast never did actually hold the record for longest wood coaster until after Montana Rusa closed in 2019.

And with more steel Chinese coaster (knock off) companies in the wild now, I expect more preference for there coasters in the near future.

183.8 feet seems like a weird number because it's actually 56 meters. El Toro is 55 meters high. I imagine that Intamin wanted to beat El Toro's height when building T Express, so they increased the height by 1 meter. It seems like RMC matched the height of the existing tallest wooden coaster, and used the measurement of 56 meters.

I could see Gravity group making a wooden hyper coaster. Son of Beast showed it could be done (and that was with KI picking up the sh$t RCCA left on their lawn). Gravity Group is an actual competent company, and one looking to show off the strength of their prefab track. They are will also more willing to accept roughness for cool designs (see Hades). The biggest issue is finding a buyer. After Son of Beast, most parks are cautious about a hyper wood coaster. CF would only do it if another park did it first. Six Flags is still hesitant about coasters over 15m. The SeaWorld parks rarely go for wood coasters (and the ones they do are rather safe designs). China might have been willing to do it, but post trade war and Covid, that because unlikely.

Also: The Beast has 2 lift hills but The Son of Beast had only one. Now the longest wooden coaster w 1 lift hill is The Voyage.

IMO the speed record is just waiting to be snatched by someone looking for a gimmick, using the same "cheating" method that Formula Rosa used by having brakes immediately after the launch. Personally, I think mountain coasters should count. If it's a rollercoaster by definition, it's a rollercoaster by definition. Also, I think the era of wooden records may be coming to an end, kindof like how the Beatles's records aren't going to be broken, because people don't buy records anymore.

The Smiler's inversion record is also a lot more creative than Colossus, since the Smiler, while it does repeat a few elements like a couple of dive loops, is much more varied than Colossus's loop, cobra roll, 2 corkscrews, and 5 barrel rolls (4 of which are back to back).

Great video and I agree that most of the Wooden coaster records seem Untouchable. Length for a woodie will almost certainly never be beat, but I think there’s an outside shot of a coaster being built with Gravity Group’s new pre engineered track that could gun for the height, length, speed, drop, drop angle or maybe even inversions record. For steel coasters I think we see the height record fall either with Falcons Flight (which would break the drop, speed, and length records) and/or a Polar Coaster potentially in Dubai as I feel like that would be a place where a polar coaster would make sense. Drop angle should also be broken pretty soon by Gerstlauer. Inversions I think is pretty unlikely to be broken soon just because it would be pretty difficult to make a 15-inversion coaster layout that wouldn’t be too nauseating to the general public.

I think Rattler, Texas Giant, Mean Streak, and Son of Beast showed us what are the practical limits of "traditional" wooden coasters (i.e. non-RMC Topper Track). Even El Toro and T-Express are around 40 ft shorter than Son of Beast. I just don't think woodies can get much bigger than what Intamin has done. Even if Son of Beast had a different fate if Kings Island hadn't used RCCA, It's still the only 200+ ft woodie ever tried. An Intamin prefab would be the only possible way to get a wooden coaster up over 200 ft.

Honestly I always wanted to see a roller coaster the height of dragster and kingda ka that isn’t a launch coaster. Lol I know it sounds wild but yeah like the 420 ft range millennium force style coaster.

The newest record should be world's longest wooden coaster. Beast beat its own record a few weeks back by two feet

The major roller coaster that broke the record is Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster. They reach over 400 feet in the sky and reach more faster like a motor jet! They have the same top hats with different endings and opening years!

The inversion record wouldn't be hard to beat. All it takes are two inversions between a top head and a swing launch spike and, assuming it's a triple launch, you've already got a headstart of 6 inversions before the real layout even started. 😄

When Hershey builds their RMC Wildcat it'll be the longest, tallest, fastest, steepest hybrid coaster in a park named after chocolate! 🤣Take that M&M and Cadbury! This is an interesting topic. I'm not so sure parks are all that interested in records anymore because we're at a point that roller coasters can go beyond what the human body can take. The trend seems to be a focus on quality like VelociCoaster, Iron Gwazi and stuff like that. Even small rides like El Loco, Skyrocket 2, Hyper Gtx are pretty great. The highest? Maybe with a Polar Coaster? Fastest I doubt. Wooden coasters I think are at the limit of what wood track can take. I could see a traditional 400ft Strata but at what park? Who would be willing to spend that kind of money and have that kind of land?

Maybe there could be a hybrid or RMC coaster with a vertical loop if the park and manufacturer take inspiration from Son Of Beast. The max steepest angle belongs to the Sounding roller coaster at Shundi Mausoleum Water Park with an angle of 135°.

Wouldn't the "tallest coaster record" be held by the now Defunct High Roller that was on top of the Vegas Stratosphere Tower? You included the Orlando Coaster Concept so I'm curious where High Roller would stand record wise since the Strat tower is 900+ ft high

I could potentially see a possible length record in a RMC American eagle, of course this wouldn't happen, but considering the two sides are 4000+ in length and if it was mobius it could probably end up around 7000+ and there isn't much you can cut out of the layout since its out and back once.
@casuallystalled
@casuallystalled Год назад
i wonder if RMC will ever try another launched coaster. And if they did would it be with the ibox track or raptor/t-rex model
@thequackenscoasterchannel2927

I agree the wood coaster records will probably never be beaten. Unless the price of lumber starts to go down even further, no one will try to build woodies super tall or fast.

If American Eagle were to get the Twisted Colossus treatment, turning into a mobius, it would smash the length record.

Topper track shouldn't count as wood track, imo. The actual rails that the wheels come in contact with are all steel. I don't see how that's much different than a mine train with wood supports. And yes I know wood track always had steel plates but they're only a small part of the rail by volume.
@AirtimeThrills
@AirtimeThrills 2 года назад
The topper track is definitely thicker than the normal steel plate on a GCI but its still on top of a stack of wood. Tough call but i respect them calling it a wood coaster. They certainly get rough like wooden coasters
@timk987
@timk987 2 года назад
I'm with you to a degree. If topper track used a little thicker steel the wood stack is pretty much theming. (like the wooden cross ties on Expedition Everest) Imo, a wood coaster runs steel wheels which would eliminate all the RMC topper track coasters except Outlaw Run. I know I'm not going to change the general consensus, so I simply refer to topper track, and prefab coasters as modern wood coasters vs. traditional wood coasters for everything built the traditional way with dimensional lumber. I wouldn't be surprised if parks pick up on that. (i.e. fastest traditional wood coaster or T-Express claiming to be the world's longest modern wood coaster) for marketing purposes.

I think they will improve lim or lsm launch technology to the point where they can compete with hydraulic or compressed air launches. When they manage to do this, who knows? I just think it’s inevitable.

The reason the longest wooden coaster record hasn't been broken is because the one that has it is just an overglorified monorail. Will falcons flight happen? Even despite them "confirming" it? Honestly polar coasters are much more likely, and somehow THOSE don't even exist yet...(fr, where dem polar coasters at, bro? 👀)

I can see merlin breaking their own inversion record (they owned colosuss) again and do something stupid like an 23 inversion coaster at Alton towers or thorpe. Though i don't think anyone will break that record its been 9 years and no one has built a 12 or 13 inversion coaster
@AdventuresWithParker

It’s so weird to think about how records were being snatched left and right in the 90s and 2000s. It seems the industry is primarily focused on records within a certain model these days… at least Cedar Fair is 🤪 It will be interesting to see if Falcon’s Flight lives up to its promises. That entire park seems really interesting, but I’m sad that with it being Saudi Arabia, I’ll never be able to go. Oh well. I’m sure there will be something else in the future.
