But doesn't that ride use OTSRs rather than lap bars?
I think it was built in 2009, before Gerstlauer began offering lap bars?
Park Vault didn't say that Gerstlauer rides couldn't have both a launch and a lift on the same ride - only that they had to use OTSRs if they did (due to space constraints on the trains).
The Smiler's vertical lift contains magnets, so I'm not sure whether this potentially caused a problem with using lap bars?
Very true, yes, Novgorod is not lap bar. I guess it does make sense. I still would have loved to have had Smiler with lapbar only as those Infinity trains are sooo nice being lapbar only!
