I knew that, I think that looks really stupid and the g-forces are higher when u do it like that.

What are dive and incline loops?
What are the second and third inversions on Mantis?
I made up a little inversion called a tight corkscrew. Its a 1/2 Corkscrew and then a 1/2 inline twist.

the inverted version of that half corkscrew can be found on raptor at cedar point. They are the last 2 inversions of the ride.
I have one where you go from a corkscrew into a half loop and then into another half loop and then back into another corkscrew going in the opposite direction of the first. Kinda like a pretzel! No name for it but it looks cool on any ride.

What is life without ups and downs!?!?
The dive loop is the 2nd inversion on Mantis and the incline loop is the 3rd inversion on Mantis.

Oh I knew that!
I just made a really nasty inverted coaster...10 inversions. People ride it...it's a little intense (10.6), but still manages an excitement of about 6. I have a vertical loop, then an in-line twist, followed by an immelman. This curves around and goes into my 5 inversion element I call the "Slicer." Half-loop into inline twist, inline again till upside down, half corkscrew down into another inline twist, half corkscrew up, inline until upside down again, half loop. 5 inversions, back to back...it looks like a really messed up cobra roll, but it's really neat. Lots of twisting, but the actual inversion elements can be though of like this: (Half-loop, twist; twist, half corkscrew; inline twist; half corkscrew, twist; twist half loop). All slightly different inversions. Anyway, I follow that up with a helix into another inline, followed by an inverted cutback into the station. It's cool!

That is one messed up ride dude!

I have a new one. I call it the "UltraCobra Roll". It is Half loop, 1/2 corkscrew, 1/2 corkscrew, 1/2 loop. So this is a cobra roll. Then its over banked turn (2 1/2 corkscrews) followed by another cobra roll.
Also i have one, i just dont know what to call it.
its a cobra roll, just with a right corkscrew then a left corkscrew between the 2 dive loops.
