The History of The Legendary Arrow Dynamics Hyper Coaster

Awesome video Scott, even if I do say so myself. It was great to Collab with you again. 👌

[@yourexperienceguide]

Thanks Harry, genuine pleasure to do the latest collaboration 😁

@@yourexperienceguide I am going to SFGA at the end of March and I have never been. Wish me luck!

[@SeanFlaharty]

Great job! Magnum is one of those coasters where it used to be my favorite, then I went through a phase of absolutely hating it, but somehow I love it again. So odd.

[@yourexperienceguide]

Thanks Sean, appreciate all of your help.

Another top notch video. Yet another enjoyable and educative video. Before lockdown I knew NOTHING about ride manufacturers and their rides, and very little about the history of the rides especially BPB which is my main interest. Many many thanks for the video's and long may they continue. And when all this nonsense is under control, hopefully we can get back to whizzing, twisting about and going up up and dowwwn again! On rides that is!!!

[@yourexperienceguide]

Thank you Steve, really appreciate the feedback. These kind of videos are here to stay even when the parks reopen, they’re fun to do.

[@MakepeaceTravel]

This video has made me miss the big one more than I already did

[@yourexperienceguide]

I’m missing both the Big One & Magnum

Enjoyable video, thanks you.

[@yourexperienceguide]

Thank you, there’s more focus on the Arrow Hypers coming very soon on PBE

[@Noct31]

I was lucky enough to grow up and become an enthusiast in the era of the Arrow looper being the premiere coaster. My first "big kid" coasters were Demon and Shockwave at Six Flags Great America (Shockwave > Vortex 4ever :D ) and I was also lucky to get to ride the first B&M coasters as they entered the scene. I do miss those giant Arrow coasters a bit, with their wonderfully janky transitions and their unique support designs (scaffolding and pillars, why not?).

[@yourexperienceguide]

It must have been so exciting seeing record after record being broken whether it was height, speed or inversions.

[@kevinhashimoto8367]

Desperado. Scott, hope you have a chance to ride it before it closes.

[@yourexperienceguide]

Me too, think I’ve left it too late

anyone else noticed the curved cross - ties on the arrow hypers ? (apart from magnum)

[@chrisjohnsonadventures]

Ah awesome great video good job

[@yourexperienceguide]

Thank you

Arrow created the corkscrew as a double inversion. It makes sense as half of the element doesn‘t resemble an actual corkscrew at all. I like to mention this when the first modern inverting rollercoasters come up. Nowadays it‘s known as a double corkscrew but there‘s a reason corkscrews often come in pairs and b&m calls them a flatspin.

[@yourexperienceguide]

It’s not that usual to see a double corkscrew on loopers built by other manufacturers, not in the same way Arrow did it anyway. Vekoma obviously did it to a point when they worked with Arrow but the 90’s/00’s B&Ms tend to be interlocked. I’ve not done them all so can’t give a full assessment.

[@ItsDannyRobbins]

My biggest pet peeve with Arrow is that they always shaped the entry to the second corkscrew perfectly, but they couldn't figure how to do it for the entry to the first corkscrew? It's what makes me loathe arrow corkscrew models, with the exception of Tennessee Tornado.

[@kazokee]

My No.1 and No. 2 bucket list coasters are both Arrow Hypera, Magnum and Desperado. Arrow is also the best manufacturer in mu opinion (my opinions are strange)

[@yourexperienceguide]

Arrow are my favourites too!

[@Todd21212]

Arrow is love, Arrow is life.

[@alfnsue]

Awesome Scott, my fave.... Come on mate 👍 👍 👍 👍

[@m1a2abramsmainbattletank58]

S&S Powers managed to complete the construction of a 4D roller coaster, X(Now known as X2).

[@yourexperienceguide]

Indeed

[@GarryWilliams555]

I hope they retrack the rest of the big one as it's legit a great coaster, it just needs looking after.

[@yourexperienceguide]

They’re currently in the process of replacing 8 track sections, new track arriving soon

[@jm252]

Went to Buffalo Bill's Hotel and Casino back in 2004. Desperado looked awesome but wasn't running! I was gutted! I thought it was a strange place to put a hypercoaster to be honest! Looked out of place! Anyone who has been may confer? Only wish it would have been open! Looked awesome though!

[@yourexperienceguide]

So frustrating that it was closed 😕

Big One's Drop in the last 2 cars: *yeet*

Never gone flying from my seat like my last ride on this coaster lol it's crazy

Arrow originally intended to build Titan at Six Flags Over Texas and supposedly located next to Judge Roy Scream.

[@yourexperienceguide]

Titan as in Space World’s Titan?

Sadly there's no Arrow Hyper Mine Train exist ever despite share similarities

[@yourexperienceguide]

How do you mean sorry?

[@bocahdongo7769]

@@yourexperienceguide Apparently Arrow Mine Train and Arrow Hyper Train apparently share same train design. It would be surreal if Hypercoaster version of Mine Train exist, like Phantom Revenge with minetrain train complete with locomotive car. I mean, let that sink in

[@Mikeb1001]

@@bocahdongo7769 The Hyper trains are indeed based on the Arrow mine train cars - the exception being Phantom's Revenge, which features cars based on the Arrow looping coaster chassis with modified bodywork by Morgan. There is a good reason why the Hypers have nose cones on the front rather than either the slab front (Gemini style) of the older mine trains or the locomotive front (El Diablo) of the newer ones, and that is quite simply aerodynamics. While dated now, the front of the hyper trains are definitely more aerodynamic, hugely important with the speeds in question and the added air resistance at higher speed
