Planet Coaster - Dance of the Auras - Gerstlauer Infinity Coaster HD
Hello everyone, it’s been a while! Today’s coaster is extremely special. For a long time I wanted to make a multi-sectioned ride experience unlike anything you could ever find in real life. This progressed into an idea of capturing the 4 elements of nature in coaster form. But the theme grew from there, because I remembered the Nicholas Flamel book series by Michael Scott, and that’s where the name and colors come from. That series features 2 central characters, a brother and sister, who are the “chosen ones” so to speak, for they have solid gold and silver auras, respectively. Over the course of the series they learn to awaken their powers through harnessing the magic of the 4 alchemical elements. Hence, Dance of the Auras, with a gold and silver color scheme. As for the layout, I think it kind of speaks for itself just with the sheer vastness, though I did want it to feel sort of like something “One Track Mind” might make (if you don’t know him, check out his channel, he makes insane No Limits 2 coasters). I’ve placed time codes down below to help you navigate the sections of the coaster. Also something I should mention, I don’t consider this project to be completely done, because I want to give this thing a logo and a piece of music to follow along with the ride. I haven’t found anyone to do so yet, but if you or someone you know would like to take part in that then let me know in the comments. Anyway, that’s enough of my rambling, sit back, relax, and enjoy this grand 10 minute adventure!!!
