Has anyone ever thought about 200 ft. loops? Now that giga-coasters are out, it seems like 200 ft. loops could be possible.
They would be sweet! 200 feet in the air and upside down! I think they'd be possible. Would have awesome G's! Giga's might not be the only that would have them. I'm sure an Air Thrust could manage one as well.

8 feet higher and a 6.5 feet longer drop, could never contest with a 80 degree, non-braking giga-coaster... Sorry, Steel Dragon 2000
well like there inverted coasters that almost hit 200 ft tall so if all the inversions are made bigger then I don't see why they couldn't do it.
There's no reason I can think of why it couldn't be done. It would probably require a bit of space for supports, let alone the sheer size of the inversion, but yeah, it could probably be done.

I'm already drooling at the thought of a loop over 200 feet. Just looking at the ground while you're upside down at 200 feet. yum.
what is the largest loop right now
There is a coaster that will have a 200ft loop i saw it in RCDB.
Here's the link:

holy crap that is going to be one of the tallest coasters in the world
That would be weird. It would take like 30 seconds to be done with it (pending on speed)

That's inverted so that will bust the record for tallest inverted coaster. Is there even a hyper-invert exsisting anywhere else?

The only other hyper-inverted that might count is Alpengeist...

I'm afraid this gets my lowest rating ever. Seven thumbs up.
A coaster coming out in 2002 called oddessy at fantasy island is gonna have a 200 foot tall loop

A lap bar is all you need!
Uggg....built by Vekoma...How long do you think this one will get delayed?

Millennium Force: The Future's Riding On It
who has the largest loop right now.
Viper's loop is just the highest loop, not the largest or biggest.

Viper holds the record for the "tallest vertical loop" or inversion, or both, whatever. The Largest diameter loop would be from a B&M (of course) but i'm not sure which one, I'm guessing towards Superman: Krypton Coaster, it's approximately 130 feet in diameter, can't remember right, i'll check later. (which means never) ;)

"Goliath Jr. looks to intense for me"
"I want to go on something more exciting than X"
B&M's Superman: Krypton Coaster has a HUGE loop...it was the largest in the world when it opened, but some other coaster defeated it.
