 In the past few days, Hakugai at Nagashima Spa Land in Japan has officially opened to the public. Enthusiasts have been following the progress of this ride for quite some time now and it's been very highly anticipated. This is an RMC iBox conversion of the white cyclone wooden coaster which was a massive wooden coaster that operated for a little over 20 years and that wasn't the most popular in terms of ride experience and being that white cyclone was such a massive wooden coaster I mean it was a great foundation for RMC to start with. This has been very highly anticipated. Now the ride is open we have some official POVs and footage of it running and I'm just going to sort of break this ride down and talk a little bit about my thoughts on it. This ride visually is very stunning this is probably the best RMC I think in terms of visual appearance. I love the blue color of the track as I do with twisted cyclone as well and this ride started off with a great base and white cyclone that was a beautiful coaster as well and Hakugai just sort of improves upon that. It freshens it up a little bit so I mean just looking at the shots here in this video provided by Nagashima Spotland this coaster looks absolutely stunning. I just had to mention that now with that out of the way let's break down this POV we have. Now Hakugai starts with a signature RMC pre-lift section and it's very typical of RMCs it's I'm pretty much every one of them and then we ascend up this massive 180 foot tall lift till here we're going to take a very small dip turn to the left you get a pretty good view from up here by the way. Then we're going to go down this huge first drop here at 80 degrees going to a massive double up we're going to dive a little down to the right there go through an outer bank turn dip down through a little sideways airtime moment down this double down here then we're going to hit the first of three inversions a zero G stall after this we're going to traverse a couple sort of sideways airtime hills there and we're going to go through the second inversion a zero G roll over an awesome ejector airtime hill then we're going to take a little dive down to the ground another banked turn there small pop of airtime we're going to hit a little sideways airtime hill again the third and final inversion the zero G roll then we're going to hit a couple airtime pops and that concludes the ride on Hakugai we hit the final brakes I have watched the POV several times since the first official one was released and a lot of my initial thoughts on it where this ride is very repetitive has lots of banked turns and sideways airtime hills there's three inversions thrown in which do look great but it's basically just airtime hills and sideways airtime hills and just very repetitive and I think that still holds true I also thought that this ride seems to be incredibly short feeling especially for being over 5000 feet in length now watching it more it really isn't too bad I mean it does have a good length I guess it'd be better you know to not lose its pace but I mean the length is still pretty decent it's roughly 50 seconds from the time you hit the first drop till when you hit the final brakes so it's a pretty full ride experience I guess and it is over 5000 feet track like I said the lift till stands at 180 feet tall the ride reaches 66.5 miles per hour so the stats are certainly very impressive the second largest RMC coaster to date and certainly very visually stunning as I stated earlier I believe Hakugai as it builds up a reputation and more people get out there to ride it I feel like it's going to be considered a very high-end RMC I don't think it's going to be like a top three necessarily I don't think it's going to be up there with rides like steel vengeance lightning rod wildfire necessarily but I do believe it's going to be somewhat of a top tier RMC possibly in the top five I think it looks like an incredible ride and it's going to have some amazing airtime for sure as we know RMC does that incredibly well like I said just kind of reiterating some of my points from earlier my biggest criticism with the ride is just that it seems really repetitive it has an awesome first drop and then after that it just has a lot of small like sideways airtime hills which I know from steel vengeance those are really awesome and then there's a couple regular airtime hills thrown in there like a pretty good size one then a really small like bunny hop then there's the three inversions there's one zero g stall two zero g rolls pretty typical inversions for an RMC coaster it's fine so I think it's going to be a really solid ride you know it certainly has the stats on its side it has that massive drop the great speed and it's also a pretty good ride in length I'm looking forward to hearing what you guys think about Haku guy in the comments below so let me know what you think about Haku guy do you think maybe you'll be able to get to Japan in the next few years to ride this I certainly am not planning on being able to get to Japan anytime soon if I ever do I would love to go to Nagashima Spa Land though even if just for this ride I mean they have a really solid lineup of coasters too but Haku guy definitely cements their place I think as sort of like I've heard some people refer to it as like sort of the Japanese cedar point I can kind of see that they have a really strong coaster lineup be sure to like comment subscribe thank you guys for watching this is coaster daddy bye
