New Vekoma Boomerang Restraints

[tycooner55]

I found this coaster in Austria, a Vekoma Boomerang, that does not use OTSR. The trains are not built by Vekoma though. I thought this was interesting. Your thoughts. http://rcdb.com/ig1093.htm?picture=21

are they metal with no padding bc that would hurt

[K1D1]

Ouch! i think those would hert.

[Nethero]

Back to the drawing board.

This coster is from 1992 but i don't know if the trains are new, ( they look like a rip off of TTD's trains)

[Maylene]

ouch but they do look kinda cool

[K1D1]

ouch but they do look kinda cool

Ya they do look cool.

[Maylene]

also no more head banging thats a good thing.

[Squid2]

Yes, the trains are new. Brand new, in fact... just about six weeks old now. The new restraints are supposedly very comfortable, even though they have minimum padding.

No more headbanging, I guess.. but that doesn't stop the smashing of the back of the skull on the seatback I experience on boomerangs of that sort.... add to that a metal lapbar with no padding? Ouch. Ouch ouch ouch. NO thank you.

Sure, the trains are a shiny rip-off of Dragster... but if you put something shiny on a piece of crap... you've still got the piece of crap to deal with.

Though they don't look too inviting, I would still give them a shot if I could.

[BoRJoYZeE]

Some way they remind me of Drachen Fire.

All I have to say is...Ouch.

Just look at that picture. You have to bend over just to hang out. And metal right across your belly, no thank you.

[K1D1]

It looks like your poking your hands in to the metal. And those handel bars are way to short. i would not what to hang on to those things.

[simtanic8]

As long as they keep me from dieing they are fine by me.

[Jekoon]

They look way better than the OTSR. I think those trains would make the Boomerang fun again!

You've got to be kidding me. Did theay really stick those on a shaky ride such as the Boomerang?? It'd be like getting punched in the gut for 60 seconds...

The trains are too TTD-ish, too. However, they would have a great view over the side, with basically nothing blocking the view.

<SNIP> . Did theay really stick those on a shaky ride such as the Boomerang?? It'd be like getting punched in the gut for 60 seconds...

The trains are too TTD-ish. It's the rollercoaster equivalent of a lightly polished piece of poo.

Ermm...you might want to tone that down a little, don't you think?:rolleyes::down:

[DJ Screech 09]

I'm funny when I get pumped...

[Hethetheth]

I'm funny when I get pumped...

Uh-huh :bored:, that's wonderful.

[DJ Screech 09]

That was a responce, not a random comment. You know that, right?

[Hethetheth]

/\ yes, I know. I didn't find your original comment funny though, just crude. I warned you because you may receive an infraction for that kind of comment. You ought to change it really.

[DJ Screech 09]

Keedoke, I'll do that.

[Iamok]

O how much that would kill me the padded harnesses hurt enuff.

[Fbh007]

the cars are nice but the cars aren't safe...
