Raptor Front Seat on-ride HD POV Gardaland, Italy

Here's your chance to see what it's like to ride on the new B&M Wing Rider coaster without having to travel to Italy. Let's hope that the new ones they're building at Dollywood, Six Flags Great America & Thorpe Park will be just as intense!
Watch in high definition.

Great video, but the shakiness conjurs up a question...Is Raptor (& thus all Wing coasters) glass-smooth as all B&Ms are, or is there actually (gasp!) any roughness whatsoever, this being an innovative, new design and leap of technology for B&M and coasters in general?

@ProChoiceJesus This one is smooth, but not all B&M coasters are - i.e. Hydra, Raptor or any B&M standup coaster.

@1kenish11 the seats flip around on a 4th dimension

What's the difference between a wing coaster and a 4th dimension coaster?

@wwwCOASTERFORCEcom please send me wild eagle, x flight, and the swarm to me.

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@batman91195 They are both the same type of coaster (B&M wing rider/wing coaster), but they have different layouts.

@wwwCOASTERFORCEcom speaking of comparing, is X- flight the same as Swarm

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@noone309 They're really two different coasters due to the manufacturers (Intamin vs B&M) & in the case of Furius Baco you can't ignore the shakiness, as it greatly influences the ride. Too many people refuse to re-ride Furius Baco because of how painful the shakiness is, whereas you can re-ride Raptor over & over without a problem. Furius Baco is really only about acceleration & speed. It doesn't offer the variety of elements, close interaction or themeing Raptor has.

@wwwCOASTERFORCEcom is this better than FB? (not comparing the shakyness)

@TheCaniac28 Eastcoastergeneral, who films most of our videos, uses a Canon HD camcorder that has a locking strap that keeps it securely attached to his wrist.
