Arrow has a new website

I enjoy this section the most:

Arrow's track and structure has experienced significant improvements over the last 5 years. With the use of computers and sophisticated analysis programs, Arrow's structural engineers continue to improve the smoothness of Arrow rides. Through the use of an Arrow developed analysis software program called CVA (Coaster Vector Analysis), engineers are able to optimize track design for smooth element transitions.

Arrow has realized that their old rides were extremely rough, and they are finally doing something about it. Way to go Arrow!

Simmer down now, those are just sample layouts. No need to throw hissy fits.

Wow. It's amazing how expressing a simple opinion can get one bashed and accused of throwing a "hissy fit." There are no hissys in my fit, and if I were to simmer down any more, I'd be asleep. Apparently opinions aren't allowed (or tolerated) by some. I guess I'll learn.

-d: who is right now contemplating simmering off to sleep!

You have to remember that the web site says that these layouts can be changed to fit the needs of a park. How far that will go, I have no idea. If a park, like Six Flags Magic Mountain wants a 200 foot 4th Dimension coaster, I'm sure Arrow would be happy to do it. Maybe a little apprehensive, but they would probably do it nonetheless.

Hey, Where's the pipeline? ;) Awesome site. Now that arrow is in desperate need of business they might get some. For those that want a video of X... Just buy Robb's Video. ;)

I don't think improving their website is really going to help their business a whole lot. Their problems go much deeper than that.

It's prototype failed. Have you ever seen the layout of that thing?

Sworn Whizzer hater because it took Shockwave down

Has anyone noticed how on the Arrow BATic videos, the sign on top of the roller coaster's structure has the old Arrow Dynamics logo on it? How long has ArrowBATic been available anyway?

Also, the Arrow Fishhook is still not part of the products list. Does anyone know if they still offer it to potential buyers?

One of the best things you can do for your company is to analize it through a customer and guest outlook. They knew their older rides had some issues, and they are willing to admit it. Nobodys perfect.

Now, hopefully someone will buy a few new loopers and put them withing a reasonable driving distance from me. That would be nice.

Love the website by the way.
