I found a B&M Floorless you may not have heard of.

It's called Superman and it's going to WB Movie World in Madrid. I just discovered it on RCDB by accident. It has a nice layout. Go here http://www.rcdb.com/installationgallery1366.htm for pics.

If you were reading CoasterBuzz daily you would have heard all about it.

Force, those "Wacky brake things" are the rectrable floor panels for the station so people can exit the train. :)

I don't have to go to Saturday detention now, do I
Looks like about the same layout as most B&M floorless coasters in the US.

Yeah, just a typical B&M coaster. No biggie.
If you want photos of the ride, if you havent already found them, then check out the superb Latincoasters.com, its a spannish site and quite difficult to navigate, the photos are also available on Coaster Force, which enjoys a good relationship with the Spannish!

It's the onlty 7 looper sitdown with an immelman also. It has sort of a figure 8 finale too. Is it going to have block brakes?
Kraken has seven inversions, is a sitdown (floorless like that one), and has an immelman.

It also looks like it doesn't have a dip before the drop like on Nitro. Is this going to be the norm for B&M coasters now?
Kumba also has an immelman, B&M's name for the dive loop, it has seven inversions! Superman looks like it will be one of B&M's longer designs with two helices as the finale forming the figure-8.

Ahem. Ahem. Dive Loops and Immelmans are 2 different things. On dive loops, you curve into the loop, and then finish the loop the same as a normal vertical loop. Immelmans curve OUT of the loop.

Just what I was about to say. The only B&M that runs above the rails with an immelman is Wildfire, I believe.
I really like the colors they are so cool.
Does anybody know what they made those models out of on RCDB.
Actually, I believe we are all mistaken, by definition from the thrillride glossary,

Immelman
Bolliger and Mabillard's term for their Diving Loop as used on their inverted coasters. This element is named for the airplane manuever invented by a German pilot in WWI.


So really, no sit on top coasters will ever have an immelman, since it only applies to inverteds. *** This post was edited by FloridaCoasterRider on 6/5/2001. ***
But they are two different elements, so they can't be the same thing. I think that thrillride is a bit mistaken...as usual. Diving loops roll and then go into an inversion, while an immelman inverts and then rolls.

its an immelman, look at it. it does the same rotation as an invert.
Immelman, Diving Loop... who cares whos right. It looks like a good coaster, and let's leave it at that.

Let the bears pay the Bear Tax, I pay the Homer Tax.
I've seen the layout on this coaster from rcdb. com and I believe that it supposed to have the same exact layout as Medusa at SFMW. This Superman floorless coaster is supposdly the second B&M to feature the Sea Serpent element. The only changes would be the height and length of the ride.
