Vekoma Corkscrew Question

[Bored Bunny]

I have a question about the Vekoma Corkscrew. They all seem to contain a bayerncurve, but I'm not entirely sure what that is. I'm assuming it's the little dip at the end of the lift (pictured below), but once again, I'm not sure.

I do believe most B&M coasters have something like that too. It's so that when the train goes down that little dip, it doesn't pull the chain lift as hard as it would if it was just lift, then first drop.
I don't think I explained it correctly though.

EDIT: Ah, here is the WikiPedia explanation.
One feature of Bolliger and Mabillard coasters that is almost universal throughout their product line, and almost exclusive to B&M, is an element known as a "pre-drop" (which is known in the industry as a "Kicker"). This is a short drop after the top of the lift hill and before the start of the first drop, designed to reduce tension on the lift chain. The flat section between the pre-drop and the first drop serves as a shelf to carry the weight of the train, reducing related stresses on the chain. By comparison, on most coasters without a pre-drop, the weight of the train as it begins its descent tends to pull on the lift chain, as the latter half of the train is still being lifted by the chain at this point.

I've heard about the B&M pre-drop, so I guess if what I pointed out is the bayerncurve, it may serve a similar purpose.

What's the name of that coaster, and where is it located?

It's Corkscrew, I think at Flamingo Land, but it doesn't really make a difference which one it is, because there's about 10 with the exact same layout.

Ahh, I see. I figured it was either the top or near where you pointed out. Thanks!
