RMC Hakugei 白鯨 On Ride POV and Drone Nagashima Spa land

[@user-lg9ou3hu4c]

最初に「白鯨」出てて嬉しい😊

[@OutdoorsWithShawn]

The drone shots following the train.... 👍👍👍👍

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

I wish I could say I was that good a drone pilot, but I'm not. These shots were sent to me.

[@OutdoorsWithShawn]

@@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring either way, you beat TPR with a video and POV of it. Can't stand that jack-leg. Lol

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

@@OutdoorsWithShawn I do try, sometimes I beat them, but rarely. Note the big watermark in case anyone tries to pinch it off my channel. :)

[@wflinner]

I'm amazed the park let the drone pilot get that close to the coaster!

[@DwayneETowns]

It looks like techno art you can ride brilliant RMC hybrid Woody makeover the video / music is beautifully produced

[@appleboy007]

Absolutely Brilliant. Wicked footage and glass smooth, and the soundtrack is perfect. Is it played on the ride?

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

Afraid not, the soundtrack is one I added via Sound Stripe.

[@appleboy007]

Thanks mate. Might you recall what the song is called?@@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring

Awesome shots!!

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

Wish I could say I filmed them, but they were sent to me to edit with.

[@jg-7780]

Can anyone tell me where the music is from?

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

It's -The Grid by Nitro. Licensed through Soundstripe

[@jg-7780]

Thanks!

[@Cythrox]

Definitely looks like it would be a bigger version of twisted colossus

[@cmten7819]

It’s bigger Joker lol

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

But is it a Vengeance beater?

[@cmten7819]

Coaster Touring naw I don’t think so

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

Have you been lucky enough to ride both, or are you going by its statistics? For me Vengeance just looks too much to be an amazing ride, with Hakugei having better pacing. But until I ride them both it's hard to really know. Hopefully I'll get to try them both over the next year.

@@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring well it has terrible reviews

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

@@Hiddenshadow76 jealous that you've managed to ride both of them. I've not had the chance to ride either yet.

Yet another amazing classic wooden roller coaster destroyed by RMC with crummy cramped trains and the same couple inversions. From a park perspective I get why this started but why does the public like it so much? Cause everyone is too much of a pansy to experience real wood or like, they just join in on the hype like how Millennium Force is always top 10 of steel coasters (and others in both those wood and steel categories tbh, Superman the ride at six flags new England seriously?)

[@MarcusGainesCoasterTouring]

I like traditional wooden coasters, and don't mind a bit of roughness, Coney Island Cyclone is great, but White Cyclone was just brutal. I'm not a fan of seeing traditional woodies get converted and would rather see ground up RMCs be built, adding to a coaster line up, but I do think White Cyclone was one of those that needed to be converted.

[@sk8coaster42]

"Classic?" White Cyclone was built in '94... and while it looked awesome(it looks even better now!) I doubt that it made many peoples top 10 lists

[@thepanman2024]

Well I mean RMC coasters are amazing and I love them to death but I do think quite a few of their conversions weren't necessary. Like I wouldn't want a woodie older than 35 years to get Rmc'd unless they are boring, rough and cannot have anything done to them to fix them

[@oneandonlysound3453]

@@thepanman2024 Yeah the fact that touched a GCI was just plain dumb. Joker goes wierdly slow and while it looks cool it's just not good. If anything it can use an alternation to make the lift higher or something. OR the park could've ditched garbage like Kong and built a ground-up, or waited for a raptor, while retracking Roar properly. Roar at SFAmerica/Maryland is underrated and I hope they will leave it alone. The only GCI's that ever deserved conversion would be Wildcat, and Qwazi only because they had no idea what they were doing with the wood and the heat for that one. Probably why White Lightning in Orlando has steel supports.
