adam_sparks1 Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 Mako will have to be outstanding to beat Shambhala, but the layout and theme does look promising... but the turnaround on Shambhala is just something amazing and different.

Charlesberg Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 Well there are many airtime moments on Mako and 4 over banked curves. I think this may be one of those rides that packs lots into itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really trimmed, hence the nickname "the world's biggest family coaster!" I disagree with that interpretation entirely, but hopefully Mako will be lesses trimmed.

Charlesberg Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 Mako doesn't look trimmed, I think it will be an exciting addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Mako is trimmed then I shan't hesitate to see it as a bigger version of TH13TEEN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L7123456 Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 Looking at both layouts, Shambhala looks like it'll still remain strong over the B&M hypers. I've been on neither however, and probably won't for a long while, so I can't really compare, however Shambhala does look like a better overall ride. Although, Mako's colour scheme [emoji108] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchada04 Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 Still not overly hyped for a ride focusing on air time. Remaining sceptical, which is one thing that looks good for Mako is it isn't just up and down. It has some decent banking and turns. I think there's one trim on Mako's layout, maybe 2. But Seaworld parks often from my experience don't even turn the trims on. Bigger concern should surely be the trim that's looking likely on Hulk...

Charlesberg Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 You don't really seem that excited for Mako. Btw the restraints you get on B&M hypers are the most comfortable restraints ever, you're completely free yet secure and it exaggerates the airtime.

Charlesberg Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 By tracing the drop of Mako, I worked out the angle to be 81 degrees. That's means there's an exciting drop ahead of us TPM members going in the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam_sparks1 Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 I wished it had the same trains as Shambhala as it gave you even more freedom sitting a lot wider apart from people on your row. Overall it's a B&M hyper and the restraints are great... expect big things in June Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt 236 Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Blow me down! Equoster mentioning he's going to Orlando shocks me a lot. Next thing you know I'll be saying I've not been to Orlando ever which I'm sure has not been said. Some things are so surprising here!

adam_sparks1 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 The airtime hills look insane... it's speeds over the humps rather fast, which looks like it's going to give a load of ejector airtime.
