Coaster101 Featured on HuffPost Live

I had the pleasure of appearing on HuffPost Live’s “Tell Me How” segment today where I talked with future roller coaster designer Hayden about his passion for roller coaster design and engineering.

He’s off to a great start in his pursuit of a career in roller coaster engineering, check out the awesome K’NEX coaster he built in just one night. Up next? A backyard roller coaster. Watch the entire segment below:

Do you have any additional advice for Hayden’s coaster-designing aspirations? Share them in the comments section below.
