Yep.Do you get to keep the hard hat?

Yep.
I agree, only difference being that these rides are actually good!I feel these coasters are becoming the modern day Boomerang where every park will have one (or a variation)
Pretty much...Although you are not in a ton of pain after riding the Sky Rockets...Vekoma Boomerangs were painfulI feel these coasters are becoming the modern day Boomerang where every park will have one (or a variation)
Anyone else think capacity is going to be the problem @ 360 rph
Capacity is more around 700.
Really?
18 seats per train, you think they can load -> ride ->unload the single train every 90 seconds?
Yes, with enough staff. If you have 4 people checking restraints, they can streamline the process. There will be lines for this, not denying that, but BG is not an idiot. They know how to operate.
During the event yesterday, the hourly capacity was said to be 400-600 pph.
“You’ll launch 25 mph out of the station, 50 mph in the reverse direction, and then 62 mph all the way up through the circuit of the ride and into a dramatic heartline roll,” explains Andrew Schaffer, Director of Design and Engineering at Busch Gardens Tampa.
Due to the nature of the ride, it will have an extremely low hourly capacity – with a rough guess around 400-500 at the moment.
I think it's worth mentioning, that only one Six Flags park has this type of roller coaster. And that was in 2012.Even though this is a roller coaster I like that they’re approaching the project like a flat ride. Unlike Six Flags which hyped these things up like the second coming of Christ, BGT has been pretty low key with it. Can’t wait for Gwazi 3.0 announcement.
Electric Eel gets between 500-600pph normally.
@GAcoaster Quick Queue allocation for Tigris will be very limited if Electric Eel & Tempesto are anything to go by.

These coasters really aren't as common as everyone is making them out to be.
