You invert on the flip, then it turns into the dive loop which is the five and final inversion.

The park also calls the super loop a looping coaster :)

With the POV out for Wonder Woman it got me thinking about Maxx Force. They look to take up about the same amount of land as WW is a very narrow coaster. Would you rather have Maxx Force on that land, or a WW/Jersey Devil clone instead?

Given we have Goliath for a RMC, I would take Maxx over WW/Jersey Devil. Standing on their own, I have the three ranked 1) Jersey Devil 2) Maxx 3) WW, but since we have Goliath, which has similar forces to Jersey Devil/WW, I would take the uniqueness of Maxx.

Interesting nugget from YouTube comment section attached and link:

https://youtu.be/qXSAsk28C_4?si=ndSCSWRrfOkn_Dc7


Someone is saying they’re a former ride op and have seen it launch as fast as 86MPH with a typical range of 79 to 81. Interesting stuff.

Having ridden Stealth this summer, bias aside, I seriously think Maxx has the faster acceleration. That checks out if the Intamin accelerators generally don't hit their advertised speed, especially if Maxx is going over its advertised speed.
