Vortex - Roller Coaster

http://www.coasterimage.com

Vortex has been a staple of the Kings Island lineup since 1987 when it debuted as both the tallest looping coaster and the first coaster to feature 6 inversions. Quite a feat in its day. This clip captures the ride in action. It includes footage of all the major elements from various angles. Take a look at what the cutting edge had to offer in the coaster realm in the mid to late 80's.

@F18Productions I agree. But B&M is in their hayday, when arrow was in their hayday, they ownzzzz. Also, arrow brought many firsts to the coaster world, such as the suspended coaster, the first hypercoaster, the first multi-dimensional coaster. They created the first coaster with 2,3,4,5,6, and 7 inversions. The coasters of today wouldn't ownzz if arrow hadn't pioneered so much technology and ideas.
