I've ridden this one! There's a clone at Sun Park too. Both actually pick up decent speed by the end. Enjoyed them.

Forgive me if these have been posted, but Youtube recommended me some absolutely over-the-top backyard coasters. It seems like it's a group of amateurs who are trying to go pro? I can't really tell what their story is, but what they've built is incredible.
This one is inspired by Big Thunder Mountain and includes an animatronic and a mid-run launch (!!!!!)
And this is their first one, inspired by the Matterhorn:

Still has better profiling than a modern B&M.
Brakes could do with a minor redesign however.

Anyone ever heard of a Ukrainian coaster company called Analog?
They only seem to have one design (15 copies), the "Hoverla" layout. Looking at pictures on RCDB, the support structure looks very neat and solid. The track profiling looks reasonably heartlined, and it might even give some nice airtime.

....And then, there is the completely circular loop....
(Can't seem to get an image link copied to my clipboard for some reason. Picture 13 on this page is a good example).

I think it'd be similar to a MM29 but with a loop. Even the colours remind me of Adventure Island's one https://rcdb.com/2242.htm#p=17153

Yeah, now that you mention it, there are similarities. Been a long time since I went to Adventure Island, so I can't remember much about that one, other than, "it was a cred".
