Incredible !! Can not wait to ride this in Dec 2014

Holy moly, did I just see that correctly? The seats will tilt all the way horizontal so we are facing straight down?

 

[neoshinok]

WOW That 90 degree tilt will make this terrifying. I'm already in line

 

[Hockeyman55]

I love how they made the video with real footage

 

[JungleSkip]

Am I the only one who just can't get excited for a drop tower?

 

[jarmor]

I'm impressed...can't wait to see the stats cause with the speed, it doesn't seem to match up with the actual height...

 

[Lozzy]

That video is great !! Going to be something pretty special .

Yes...

 

[JungleSkip]

Yes...

They're just so uninteresting.

 

[Hockeyman55]

They're just so uninteresting.

I can agree with that, especially when it seems like every park and even traveling carnivals have a drop/launch tower of some sorts. What I think gives this one an interesting edge is the 90 tilt, for me that kind of terrifies me yet sparks my interest at the same time

Face down drop was unexpected. That's pretty crazy. I did the drop tower at BGW and it was tame. This is obviously going to be a lot different.

Meh.



I hope people enjoy it, but when this rumor first started it gave me no desire to take a trip to BGT.

Busch Gardens has taken the traditional drop tower and kicked it up a notch! A normal drop tower terrifies me enough as is.

Finally this thing is announced! And the 90 degree tilt caught me off guard! I am so excited for this thing and also very glad that BGT has enhanced the drop tower experience!

Yeah, I wouldn't make a special trip out just for this. I think this will go over fairly well with the GP since there really isnt anything like it here in Florida.

I think HTF may have eluded to tilting seats in the past, I believe it was him.

My only complaint would be that I think it takes away from Shiekra with the face down aspect, other than that it looks/sounds pretty terrifying.

Not home so i need to make this short. Falcons fury is the official name. It brings you 335 feet up, brings you into a 90 degree prone position, and drops you as you literally face down. I have a few pics for when i get home even though theyre not the greatest

 

[Hockeyman55]

You know what im most happy about. BGT finally put all the know it alls to rest about them not allowed to build anything higher than 200ft.
