Caída Libre - A 2026 Giga Dive Coaster Concept for Six Flags Over Texas POV

[@jordancaleb3419]

I like the La Vibora homage with the color scheme

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

Very nice.

[@gooigismansion8215]

Looks like quietly removing rides with no notice will be the norm now with this merger

[@KnotWithJosh]

Imagine the new b&m rattle on this 🥲

[@mynameiskrysta]

Wouldn’t be a problem without those damn vest restraints

[@Ur._favorite]

@@mynameiskrystahave u not ridden iron menace? 💀

[@mynameiskrysta]

@ don’t need to. Give it one more year and it’ll be as bad as every other one. That’s exactly what happened to every other one.

[@j.tvgl2235]

it would be LETHAL 😭😭💔

[@aj74205]

@@mynameiskrysta Interestingly, Sheikra and Griffon are still pretty much glass (esp Griffon). Would be great to see 10-across Griffon trains on this, and a return to form for B&M. Dare to dream....

[@TXairportlover]

You did an amazing job this is one of the best concepts I ever seen.

[@amityvville]

i hope the elements that come after the first drop are more unique and not just a stretched out version of your average dive coaster

[@305CoastersOfficial]

Great Layout! The Color Scheme is also really cool!

[@aj74205]

This is a fantastic concept, and it basically has a bigger layout than Sheikra after the MCBR. Truly, I would hope that a double-inversion element or something else unique like a super steep top hat would be included, but unfortunately after Fury B&M decided to phone it back in.

[@djmyr]

Love the colors as a nod to Vibora and great job fitting it in there. I love this layout and hope they'll go with something with a length like this, but like you said they'll probably make it shorter. I'm curious if B&M would try one of their signature speed hills on a dive coaster or their take on an RMC-style stall.

[@JettCrocodile]

At that drop, people gonna get chocolate rain falling down from the parking lot.

[@plighting_engineerd]

This is a really cool concept! I love the colors, and I think this is very realistic as well in terms of what elements B&M would use. Nice name too, (plus the superhero movie DaVinci resolve title lol)

[@TroubleLightCoasters]

Yeah I figured the superhero text matched the vibes of the old six flags announcement videos 😂

[@normg2242]

Very nice flow!

[@kilobeatsog]

It's still so crazy to me we're getting a dive and it's a Giga at that lol. I still wish it was a proper giga from intamin or b&m but interested to see how B&M decides to approach this. Who knows maybe if this does very well we'll get an modern airtime hyper in the next decade

[@DrAkuIa1]

It’s not been announced to be a Giga. I just says record breaking. That could mean most inversion, steepest drop, longest, fastest or tallest which would only need to be 246 feet.

[@TroubleLightCoasters]

@@DrAkuIa1 there does come a point where you might as well build up to 300 for marketing purposes. It’s why you don’t see 260-290 ft hypers.

[@TTMfred]

Got him there

[@kilobeatsog]

@DrAkuIa1 i was going off of this the guy had some pretty solid evidence of it being a giga dive. if u go to the 4 min mark that's where some of the evidence starts. Hoping his source is right lol. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXjLimWfgtOneLssi=SmLLSLlq8P1c4p5T

[@TTMfred]

@@kilobeatsog thanks for the sorceb

[@LetsPretendGaming]

Looks amazing. I wish SFOT would do better overall theming though. These original parts of the park have not had much theme love in decades.

[@swimandracquet]

That was so cool. Very smooth

[@Sam_Leviathanexe]

I wonder how steep the drop on the planned giga dive will be? I hope they make the drop atleast 100 degrees not only making it the 1st giga dive but the 1st b&m giga to go 100 degrees down

[@chongarcia977]

We know it's coming..But hopefully it's 300 ft..somehow I don't think so..I'd say 240 or 250 ft to beat the current one..Yukon striker

[@lorijones3153]

This is awesome

[@KG-lb7fu]

Hope it has La vibora colors just like this!

[@robertruge2916]

It needs more zero-G moments and spinner coasters. Although on a larger scale, it's doing Hangtime like ride where you're upside down for a long time but not zero Gs?

[@TroubleLightCoasters]

@@robertruge2916 The twisted horseshoe roll is 0g during the inversions, and both immelmans are profiled to be around 0g right at the crest.

[@Verdelite]

its crazy to think that they could get a giga dive that park is NOT big enough to recieve that kind of investment and the plot dosent have enough room.

[@TroubleLightCoasters]

I mean the rumors I’ve seen is a $25-$30 mil coaster which is about how much Orion cost. This park is also very similar to carowinds where it a) was mid tier until they got fury and b) is in one of the fastest growing markets So I can definitely see cedar fair leadership pouring money in. While I don’t think it’ll be as long as what I showed in this pov (may also be one of the skinny track dives) if it’s over 300ft, I can definitely see them going 300ft tall.

[@Verdelite]

@ the top park that needs a giga is great america though, prove me wrong.

[@TroubleLightCoasters]

@@Verdelite I mean a giga would be really good there but that park has had a steady stream of investment already. The biggest giga needers in the chain are over Georgia, Knott’s (needs capacity lol), Over Texas, great adventure (now that Ka is closed), and maybe fiesta. Georgia and Texas have gotten absolutely horrible additions since 2011 (only their rmc’s stand out) while great America has gotten maxx force, x flight, Goliath, and will get rashaka this upcoming year. They are also in relatively big and fast growing markets. It’s not much more but it makes a difference.

[@KG-lb7fu]

Dallas ft worth area has a population of over 8 million plus lots of people come to Dallas for business. Over texas also hasnt got a proper new coaster in over 20 years. This is over due. And they have plenty of room when the picnic area gone

[@namevone]

@@Verdelite Great America could use a giga, but they're not due for a new coaster like Over Texas is. Plus where would Great America even fit a giga?

[@Cayden_scherbarth1]

A giga dive coaster, “where the drop off the mid course is still larger than the drop of sheikra” 😅😂🔥🔥🔥it’s lit tho

[@TristanTaylor-k9h]

The titan is tiny compared to this

[@Little_Lime99]

Bro even the loop is taller than oblivion 😂😂😂

[@Random_Eebs]

oblivion is a shit ride

[@TTMfred]

Be nice

[@Little_Lime99]

@@Random_Eebs nah Lil bro

[@Random_Eebs]

@ literally a false advertised “vertical” drop, and then a turn. Lame

[@TTMfred]

@@Random_Eebs but it’s still not nice to go to someone and say stuff like that. For a example your KZbin channel is lame because your commercial airplane don’t do what I want it to do

[@briansumpterii4430]

Why, for the love of Pete is there a break on the simulation. That takes the continuous thrill out of the ride! The ride overall looks great, but I can’t stand mid run brakes!

[@andyroman8223]

Im praying they don't go for a giga dive. Gigas are my favorite ride type, and it would be unfortunate for go for a dive instead of a traditional giga.

[@TroubleLightCoasters]

Me too. I’d much prefer a traditional b&m giga for the space, but that drop and lift hill will take up a lot of space… Maybe I can try to make a traditional giga layout next.

[@philhutchings7354]

I don't like the first block zone being so early in the ride, this should be a sweet top hat instead.

[@TroubleLightCoasters]

@@philhutchings7354 it was necessary. When a coaster is that tall, it becomes increasingly expensive to build because elements have to be longer and taller. The midcourse saps some speed so it is able to have a full layout without being 7000+ feet. If you look at valravn, it literally does the same thing. I built it to be realistic, not have the most insane layout.

[@Brandon-qd2lb]

Enjoy that bumpy rattle lmao

[@ZachsWorkshop]

😍

[@Random_Eebs]

the thought of over Texas getting a giga before great america is extremely sad, great america needs it a lot more because we don’t have a standout yet have such a deep lineup

[@TroubleLightCoasters]

Over Texas and over Georgia have the same problem but worse. I’d go out of my way to visit great adventure for maxx force and maybe over Georgia for Goliath but not over Texas.

[@TTMfred]

Agreed random_Eebs you don’t know what your talking about and great America is already a good park but over Texas is missing its lead attraction for much more than great America and over Texas is the only reason any sixflags park exist at all

[@Random_Eebs]

@@TroubleLightCoasters That’s fair but great america is literally one standout away from becoming one of the worlds premier parks, a park that would bring in enthusiasts from around the world, and over Texas or Georgia aren’t that close to being world class.

[@Random_Eebs]

@@TTMfred i don’t want to argue with someone who doesn’t know how to spell and structure sentences properly but you’re clearly dense if you think great america doesn’t need a standout

[@TTMfred]

@@Random_Eebs for one all people make mistakes for two you are horrible at listening because I never said that. I said over Texas needs a lead attraction more than great America now do I need to repeat my self
