It will be a B&M Flyer. I don't think I could take a Vekoma one. I can't think of to many Vekoma's I enjoy, EE but not to many others.

I guessing with the splash supposedly in the ride, it is going to be B&M. Vekoma flyers are fun, however the corkscrews on Nighthawk ( Borg Assimilator) are very rough. But the ride is so fun you do not care about that.

Theres a basic carnival/ small park one like this but I'm 99% sure we won't get this.

I'd prefer it to be the Batwing one so we could have a little of both.

The ones in small parks are usually tame and painful with any corkscrews, I hit my head on the metal bars a lot.

superman at 6 flags loads like dueling dragons, then the car tilts and you are in a weird looking position. It is funny to look at the people ahead of use feet. Flying coasters are ok, just not that exciting to me, the ride is smooth though.

yea....i am hoping its a fun ride...some people say they are smooth...others say rough...

it prob. just depends on the quality of the build. i have been on many wood coasters...but none were as bad as gwazi at BGA.

Depends on the age. I hear Borg at carowinds is rough while Batwing and the Supermans are pretty smooth.

roughest coaster ever is the georgia cyclone.

Borg was a bad design. It was sent from another park.

where is superman and batwing at? carowinds?

I really like DC comic heros! I rode a Superman at Six Flags in NY - but it was just a regular coaster - not a flyer.

Our Six Flags is DC Comic mania! We have Batman, Riddler, and Superman. But now we're back on topic...:P

there are a lot of superman/batman combos across America. The only Batwing flyer is DC. All others excpet sfmm with tatsu are superman ultimate flights.
