Sometimes when a ride is first testing they use a different wheel combination so the ride runs faster than it normally will. Don’t get your hopes up too much
TheSpanish Potato Exactly right. And every time you see these people refusing to wear masks, putting pressure on states to open up before they have even met basic CDC guidelines, you can know that they’re undermining the sacrifices the rest of us have made and guaranteeing the virus will be around a lot longer and kill a lot more people.
RICHEY099 yeah it is weird they didn’t at least make it 300ft or add couple more little hills but oh yeah. This still beats anything six flags has installed in ages.
@@LucasNinoMusic The reason is likely higher steel prices than when Fury was built. I suppose that means you can call it a "budget giga" but it's not like the park spent significantly less money on it than Carowinds did on Fury.
B&M have a reputation of test rides hauling through the layout and that is because the trims are usually not on and when riders get on they turn the trims on and we can say good bye to any type of ejector we could see.
@@AttanoPlays Even still, Orion has just the one trim relatively late in the layout. Wheel type changes might be a more likely culprit in slowing Orion down, if it does slow down. Regardless, Orion remains a collection of B&M's best speed coaster elements without the same dead zone Fury suffers from in the middle of its course. There's no universe in which it'll feature ejector, but I wouldn't be surprised if many prefer it over Fury.
Agreed. The layout seems so short because it's hauling through here. The huge airtime bunny hops seem really tall, but are still relatively short compared to the max height, so this thing is gonna maintain great speed throughout.
Don't know why people hate on Orion so much. It looks so beautiful! Comparing it to Fury feels like a joke, as Fury is over 1000 feet longer and have two different styles: Orion focuses on large pops of airtime and huge hills, while Fury focuses on low to the ground moments and speed. I feel like it'll be better than Leviathan, maybe I-305, but Fury and Millennium Force will top all of them.
Charchar487 millennium force is forcless and i305 has everything you would want in a Giga, it’s fast intense, while millennium force is just a drop and that’s it not many air time moments after not that much intensity
I agree, lol, I really want to hear that roar. I imagine people were talking during the recording, though, so the sound had to be replaced to make the video professional.
I live outside Cleveland..my gf is outside cincinatti...we've been watching thing get built all year from the highway...it looks great. We're blessed to have kings island and cedar point
Really excellent video, Taylor. Great editing and camera angles, along with the choice of music makes for a wistful, carefree and hopeful tone. Makes me think of Queen Elizabeth's recent message: "We will meet again."
At first I was underwhelmed, but Orion has really grown on me. Its a beautiful creation and even though its the smallest giga, I still think it will stand up as a very very elite coaster. Plus, awesome music choice
i’m moving to ohio from illinois this summer. i’ve been riding raging bull which is one of the weakest hypers...so excited to see what diamondback and orion have in the tank
Looks a lot like Millennium Force, stats are pretty close as well...Drop, angle, speed. Appears to use the same type of cable/elevator lift, gets up the climb pretty quick
Seems like such a good ride! 2020 has so many good coasters ready for riding right now, but sadly all we can do is wait to get on them, we can’t even see how they are.
No way amusement parks are ever gonna be allowed to open back up again. We’ve all ridden our last roller coaster. The government will make amusement parks illegal sooner or later since there are so many risks involved with them. I say we go ahead and destroy them all to make all of y’all’s hopes go away. Really wanted to ride my first giga but I guess that’s not gonna happen anymore.
@@lawsonmurdock7450 everything you said is complete nonsense. Governments are working on plans to reopen amusement parks because of the vital role they play for the local economies. Amusement parks aren't going anywhere.
To have it next to Diamondback is just amazing...kinda like Fury 325 at Carowinds went it was built next to Intimidator, or Leviathan and Behemoth (aren't next to each other).
This ride is gonna slap. I just don’t want everyone to compare this to Fury. This ride is not a “budget Fury” I just feel like people shouldn’t judge this ride until they ride it
Never realized how great my home park was until the last year or two, living about 50 min away from it is a little bit of a drag when you constantly want to go but we're moving next month and I'll only be 20 minutes away so I can't wait. Going to cedar point for the first time this year too!
I am seeing comments on how the trains are hauling through the layout and the truth is this; B&M have a reputation for test trains hauling but that is because of trims usually being off for max statistics for the park. When the trims get turned on we can say good bye to any possible ejector. Not trying to be a party pooper but just laying out facts.
Looks like a quick lift hill climb. Nothing’s more anxiety-inducing than a long, slow lift hill. Still, I’ve never been to any park outside of California and someday, I’ll get to King’s Island to ride this. 😁
With kings island as my home park it’s a real shame that I can’t be there to ride it, but it’s nice to see new material to watch to hold me over until they open
Say what you will about it being the smallest giga, I think it's a great concept and addition to King's Island. It's a short ride but it looks super packed with airtime.
It's not even the smallest giga. The only statistic it has that isn't bigger than I305 is the height of the first hill off the ground. It's faster, longer, just as steep, and has the same drop height as I305.
Looks amazing but as someone who prefers floater this seems quite a violent ride when it comes to airtime. Apart from that looks glossy smooth and just glides effortlessly.
So sad I haven't been yet and that it's closed I would have already been several times this year with my kids. It's breaking my heart that they're closed
I don't know why, but it makes me happy to see a roller coaster running in 2020 maybe it's just me
i think the music adds to it as well, very uplifting
@Kiwi Kiwi its definitely not just you
Nope...me too!
You damn well know it’s not just you
Am s
Looks awesome. I don’t care what people say, this ride is gonna kick ass.
Taller doesn't always mean better.
It’s really shorter than leviathan
@@kevinthompson6986 so?
@@kevinthompson6986 Shorter doesn't imply it won't have a shot at being better
Anyone who doesn't think it'll "kick ass" is a moron.
I’m so glad that the airtime looks abit more violent than standard B&M’s, we need more ejector airtime
Sometimes when a ride is first testing they use a different wheel combination so the ride runs faster than it normally will. Don’t get your hopes up too much
He's right look at Makos first test run pov or at Candimonium in its first test runs.
Definitely won't have ejector airtime but you can hope so!
floater > ejector, I said it
@@alistairbentley8965 while I might agree, not everyone is the same. Roller coasters and airtime are more subjective.
With the stress of being furloughed and struggling to find a job this is literally the only thing to cheer me up
Where' d you get furloughed at?
Sam Stockton a place in Dallas called bsn. I’m from Cincinnati I’m visiting while looking for a job.
Oh that sucks
Because like life a roller coaster has it’s ups and downs.
Best of luck to you and your family.
If this damn corona wasn’t around, there would be people in these trains right now.
One way you can help to speed up the reopening of the world is to stay home when possible, and practice social distancing.
@@keeshandave8603 wow! how rude and stupid do you have to be to believe its the chinese's fault it was no-ones fault
@@keeshandave8603 didn't every single country not lock down until it was too late because we didn't know covid-19 was more like HIV than the flu

The coasters in China have people on their trains right now. As well as some other countries.
Can we just appreciate how good his cinematography has gotten over the years!
“BUDGET GIGA” looks pretty good actually. It blows through the layout easily without anyone on it. I just wish it wasn’t so short of a ride.
They held back because they bouta make a 500 foot RMC Trex, nah I’m just playing but that would be awesome
This cost the same amount of money as Fury and Kings Island when it first opened.
RICHEY099 yeah it is weird they didn’t at least make it 300ft or add couple more little hills but oh yeah. This still beats anything six flags has installed in ages.
@@LucasNinoMusic The reason is likely higher steel prices than when Fury was built. I suppose that means you can call it a "budget giga" but it's not like the park spent significantly less money on it than Carowinds did on Fury.
The odd shape of Orion’s skyline looks so beautiful, I love the looks of it soo much. It actually looks better on an overcast day
The pacing here seems to support my original instinct with Orion - that it will exceed expectations.
B&M have a reputation of test rides hauling through the layout and that is because the trims are usually not on and when riders get on they turn the trims on and we can say good bye to any type of ejector we could see.

Hopefully KI opens in June, I can’t wait to ride this!
I hope so too! I'm not sure if I will even be able to go tho XD I have never been. I really only go to cedar point since it is my home park.
Brennen Canfield cedar point is amazing
It won’t, night have a second wave. (Just don’t get ya hopes up haha, I’m not lol)
I have not been to kings island since 2016. I can’t wait to ride this and mystic timbers
I agree, I really miss going to KI too. but if you're interested, on my channel we're recreating KI to scale in Minecraft.

I feel like it'll be better than Leviathan, maybe I-305, but Fury and Millennium Force will top all of them.
This is way better than millennium force lol but the best gigas are i305 and fury, I’d say Orion is more even with leviathan
No chance Millie beats out i305
Charchar487 millennium force is forcless and i305 has everything you would want in a Giga, it’s fast intense, while millennium force is just a drop and that’s it not many air time moments after not that much intensity
It’s been rough knowing this is 10mins from my house and waiting for media day
I have Iron Gwazi 3 hours from me. I would've totally gotten at least 100 rides by now.
Literally it’s 5 minutes away I pass it everytime I pull into the neighborhood
2 more weeks my guy
Imagine that 300ft 85 degrees drop with just a clamshell, sheesh...
I can't believe nobody is talking about this. That's four degrees steeper than Fury. It's gonna slap.
Sooo excited but the virus has said get that outa here rip
@@PrinceRoyceFan667 I believe it is the steepest drop on a B&M excluding the Dive Coasters (it is basically i305's drop but with lap bars lol)
You won't notice 4 degrees just like you won't notice its almost 50 feet shorter than Fury. I think they will feel the same
Shao Dynasty drops only 20 feet shorter.
This will be one of the best in the world no matter what the critics say. Probably top 20.
Wow this footage is spectacular. Amazing camera work. Those shots through the trees are some of your best ever! Hope you’re staying healthy!
Putting a music on a b&m roar should not be allowed
They were too far away to hear it anyway.
I agree, lol, I really want to hear that roar. I imagine people were talking during the recording, though, so the sound had to be replaced to make the video professional.
On the bright side, OhioValleyCoasters has some raw footage with the original sound up.
We could barely hear the roar. It was very quiet on camera. Wasn’t worth it.
@@CoasterStudios ahah no problem, I was joking
I live outside Cleveland..my gf is outside cincinatti...we've been watching thing get built all year from the highway...it looks great. We're blessed to have kings island and cedar point
The lift hill just looks so austere and imposing that I can't help but love it!
Really excellent video, Taylor. Great editing and camera angles, along with the choice of music makes for a wistful, carefree and hopeful tone. Makes me think of Queen Elizabeth's recent message: "We will meet again."
Orion's drop will likely be pretty intense because fury has a 320 ft drop at an 81 degree angle. Orion is 85 degrees and it's only 300 ft. Just saying
This music is just making my heart pitter patter. Beautiful. Beautiful new Orion too.
I absolutely love this video. It looks so well made and I can tell you put a lot of work into it. Props to you.
Finally the most underrated coaster is showing its beauty.
@John Lorton It's bigger than I305 in every way except how tall the lift hill is off the ground lol.
John Lorton it’s a giga
Awesome footage Taylor great job I’m excited for Orion in the near future
I was supposed to go to CoasterStock this past weekend. I would've gotten several ERT rides on this if it weren't for Convict-19. Nice video, Taylor!
At first I was underwhelmed, but Orion has really grown on me. Its a beautiful creation and even though its the smallest giga, I still think it will stand up as a very very elite coaster. Plus, awesome music choice
Beautiful man, absolutely beautiful! Orion is going to deliver, especially in the night ride arena!
HonduDan I wish they’d do a night time run cause I wanna see if the lift hill lights are white. Be cool if they were blue.
This is the most beautiful roller coaster music I've ever heard
This makes me want to go to ohio to ride it. Its just hauling.
Too bad that COVID-19 exists.
U can come to my place xD
Ugh I can't wait
Can't wait till I get to ohio
i’m moving to ohio from illinois this summer. i’ve been riding raging bull which is one of the weakest hypers...so excited to see what diamondback and orion have in the tank
Beautiful shots, man! So frustrating not being able to ride it yet.
Thanks Bob! It hurt a little seeing it running knowing it would be a little longer till we’d get to ride, but it was still fun to see it going.
Seems to really move over those hills. May not have the speed and whippiness of Fury, but it could end up being an airtime machine.
Looks a lot like Millennium Force, stats are pretty close as well...Drop, angle, speed. Appears to use the same type of cable/elevator lift, gets up the climb pretty quick

I wish I had someone to go on an amusement park tour around this country. My fiends sucks.
To have it next to Diamondback is just amazing...kinda like Fury 325 at Carowinds went it was built next to Intimidator, or Leviathan and Behemoth (aren't next to each other).
Orion is in the back Diamondback is near the front.
Taylor, you made me cry! So beautiful!
My home park... beautiful 😍
But I now live in Tampa and am waiting on Iron Gwazi to open...
The majestic footage and music gives the video so much charm
This ride is gonna slap.
I just don’t want everyone to compare this to Fury.
This ride is not a “budget Fury”
I just feel like people shouldn’t judge this ride until they ride it
This is awesome! Can’t wait to ride it hopefully sooner then later
For anyone that is interested, the song names are "Sense of Space" and "Roots", both by Jakob Ahlbom.
Thank you! :)
Wow this coaster is beautiful!!!! Can't wait to see it in person and RIDE IT!
Charming video 😍 wish to all of us back to normal life soon ! Btw in Germany parks will reopen by the end of May.
I feel like this ride is being slept on, it looks awesome
That speed hill is going to be insane
Absolutely looks better than Leviathan. I would be ecstatic to receive this as a new coaster if I were a local. It’s gonna be great guys!

I don’t mind the length...I just wish they had done a treble clef turnaround like Fury. Needless to say though I can’t wait for the park to reopen!
That wave turn after the first drop looks wicked
I can’t wait for this to open. I’m supposed to go to the first riders benefit auction
Same
Clicked for the coaster stayed for the music 👍🏼
Same the music is giving me some tears and watching this art come to life is so cool
This ride will never have maintenance issues, the park will have all the time in the world to test run this bad boy.
He's so beatiful and graceful !! This back row will be insane !

There is only one trim and that is on the floater hill. There will likely be plenty of ejector on the speed hill.
wish i could give this video infinite likes. this is my home park and i miss it :( glad to see orion running though, it makes me happy :)
KI is my home park! Im praying things will change and it'll open this summer
Looks like a quick lift hill climb. Nothing’s more anxiety-inducing than a long, slow lift hill. Still, I’ve never been to any park outside of California and someday, I’ll get to King’s Island to ride this. 😁
Agree it’s a spark of joy in this time
I was thinking that there wuld be a chance that that 141 ft tall camelback might give any other airtime moment at kings island a run for its money
wow this thing hauls! looks like an amazing coaster
With kings island as my home park it’s a real shame that I can’t be there to ride it, but it’s nice to see new material to watch to hold me over until they open

That drop looks never ending, awesome.
Have they added any trim brakes yet? It's hauling in these tests and I know they often add trim brakes after they do some testing. I hope they dont 🤣
Can’t wait to ride this and work there at my home park finally kings island got a giga coaster after so many years of asking for one
Going to be the best Giga, flawless elements
It's looking a lot better than the official animated POV already! 😍
Orion: done
Emperor: done
Iron Gwazi: done
Texas Stingray: Operating
Pantheon: done
Jersey devil: still under construction..
Even Aquaman is fully constructed
Love the name, this is a short ride but, looks great!
Sad thing is that we won't likely ride it this year. CF parks are rumored to not open for 2020.
I can’t wait to ride roller coasters again
For all the hate this ride gets, it's FLYING through the layout. I think it'll be a pleasant surprise
B&M are really getting good with their hypers. Onion 287 looks great.
Nice video Taylor I wonder this is the 4th giga
Hersheypark is testing Candimonium as well.
Looks amazing but as someone who prefers floater this seems quite a violent ride when it comes to airtime. Apart from that looks glossy smooth and just glides effortlessly.
I'm there soon as they open!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
This ride will kick butt!
probably the best color scheme ive ever seen
I’m so hype right now!
I am so happy my local park is getting a giga
Loveland bike trail views hit different
this is great. the coaster community has stuff to look forward to after this is over
Had a trip to CP planned for the summer, May have to add KI to that now...
I really hope KI opens this summer
German theme parks open on May 29
It looks like Orion is going to haul a**! Can't wait to ride
its so beautiful 🥺
At first I thought it was going slow, and then I noticed there were no people on it, so we just have to wait to see this thing’s true potential.
Looks FANTASTIC.
A sign of hope, of things to come ✌
I keep forgetting how tight the change in angle at the top of the first drop is. The back row is going to be insane.
Nice! Did you film from the bike trail?
I did for a few shots!
Looks like Gatekeeper with different trains
The fact that this is 20 minutes away from where I'm sitting right now, just sitting there, really gets me heated.
Your 20 minutes away
Hey next month I'll be living 20 minutes away!
I can’t wait to get on this ride! It looks like it hauls!
So sad I haven't been yet and that it's closed I would have already been several times this year with my kids. It's breaking my heart that they're closed
Ugh! I was supposed to be going here and riding this at the end of the month 😔
A royal coaster. Running. Yes.
Seeing this running is giving me hope that i can ride something this year
