Meh. Why would it be rough?

To me, it's either going to boring, or really painful. It's going to be so boring because they won't want to put much pressure on you because you are kneeling, or the pressure is so great that it will hurt your knees. Why would you want to kneel on a roller coaster? The flying thing makes perfect sense because it's like you are a bird, or how a superhero flies, but just why would you want to kneel on a roller coaster? The loungechair coaster would be a better idea than kneeling. The stand-up coaster people complain about, but that's a genius idea compared to something like this.

It seems to be more of a family coaster concept. And the fact that's it's a swinging supended coaster will mitigate any roughness, though in recent years with newer technology Vekoma coasters haven't been very rough at all.

I said it would be rough because of the massive G-Forces and Vekoma themselves. Nothing against Vekoma, I just haven't really fallen in love with any of their designs, the boomerang is all they've got going for them.

The kneeing looks like it would be exactly like the motor bike coaster. And if you have ever been on one they are not that bad at all. So in conclusion New Vekoma Coaster = suspended motor bike coaster.

I've been on Velocity, and to tell you the truth, I think it was painful. when the back thingy lowered all I felt was pain, down there. So in total, I think this design will be a flop. GIB2!

How can it look rough if all you have is 2 picture renders?
