Appearenty one is going up in China. That's a way to get around the Vekoma issue for a ride of this type.
The Vekoma junior inverts are just fine -- and if they have the new style of harnesses (like Steel Lasso) then they are even better
Steel Lasso is a pretty smooth Coaster, at least it was when it opened. I haven't been to Frontier City in 3 years. How is it holding up?
Holding up fine. But I have never been on a slower coaster. B
I've posted this before but this is one of the latest vekoma family suspended coasters. Custom model with a ride time right at a minute which seems to be the new norm. Lots of water

Remember the SDC "liquid rollercoaster" that was removed and Powderkeg put in it's place? Has technology corrected the issues with that experimental coaster, and have other parks put one in that don't have the technical issues that Buzz Saw Falls had? Just asking.
Mack and Intamin make them, Mack installed one in Australia last year. Mack was promoting their reliability at the 2013 IAAPA.
