Non-Traditional Inversion Elements

I'm fishing for ideas here. There are only so many times you can do verts, corks, batwings, and cobras. What are some of the inversions that you all have come up with? For example, I have an element I like to call "Twist of Fate" (Hardy Boys). Its almost just like a cobra roll, except in the valley between the two half loop, I inserted a full corkscrew. What do y'all do?

One of the ones I use often is a large loop, with an inline twist at the top until you're upside down again, then the other half of the loop. I don't have a name for it, but it works, and doesnt look half bad

I soemtimes use a half loop followed by a half corkscrew. Instead of just making it a dive loop as it is, I continue with another half corkscrew to make a full corkscrew out of a half loop.

I have one I use that I call the Cobra Fang. It is a cobra roll, but I put an inline twist in the valley portion.

My move has no name but this is how it goes. Half inline, half downward corkscrewhalf upward corkscrew, half inline. Kinda like a cobra roll with inlines and corkscrews.

DOWN WITH TRIM BRAKES!

Upside down corkscrew. Same element order as Craig's, different name.

I have an inverted cutback. I do and inline twist and then half a corkscrew, then do the other half of the corkscrew like a cutback, then another in-line twist. Another way to do it is to have two corckscrews back to back going opposite directions. Hard to explaine but it looks tight on an invert.

Hey Hostyl....hehe good name for the inversion. Too bad such a cool name for a finisher was given to such a bad team (sorry if this drags away from the RCT part of this post)

Hey Korn4/8/00, sorry if this drags away from the subject, BUT the hardy boys are not a bad team!!!! Why would you say that. Now i'm sorry, i just wanted to get that out.

I like to make a half corkscrew really close to the ground, then make a half loop that is sunken into the ground and the whole thing ends up underground.

Hey Skeeber, I think your's is called a heartbreaker element.

I have an element on the flying coaster where you start out in the flying position, then dive down a half loop with an inline twist at the bottom. I'll call it the Dive Bomber.

Korn MS- I do something similar to that on some inverts but I do the in-line-twist first then the half loop, I like to make it so the bottom of the loop is underground

Thanks Korn! I am so obsessed with that game! I can come up with cool elements. Like the Sea Serpent before Medusa came out with it!

I wish there were diving and inclined loops so I could make Riddler's and Mantis!

Yea..I think most people came out with the Sea Serpent before Medusa did. One cool thing I did with an Invert. was make a half-corkscrew then put a zero-g roll , then another half corkscrew in the same direction. Kinda like a cutback with a zero-g roll in the middle.

Tight!!!

I do something like the B&M flatspin. I do half a barrel roll and finish it off with half a corkscrew. *** This post was edited by Joel on 9/3/2000. ***

Medusa: there's no inclined loop, but a dive loop is approximated by a half corkscrew/half loop combo. They're not the exact shape, but that's pretty much what a dive loop is..
