Fårup Sommerland Discussion Thread
_koppen replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Well there is a height limit of 65 feet, and people were asking for something more thrilling than Lynet, and that had something with water to do, so a launch coaster is def not out of the picture, and I personally think the jetski coaster fits those criterias. But it's just speculations and wishes from me. -

Saw that they were asking for suggestions on their facebook for future additions, nice to see that they really listened. Also saw that the Intamin Jetski coaster came up in those suggestions, let's hope it's something as awsome as that we will se in 2013! -

The picture I posted on the previous page, you can see the entrance on the bottom right. It will be located where the first set of brakes after the inline twist is. As for the entrance to the island, it will be on the right side of the Flying Fish coaster. The entrance under Stealth is for the other island, that is yet to be developed.

Wait, is batwing going somewhere? -
In the Mack part of Robb's IAAPA video's the guy from Mack confirms it will be a gravity coaster, and that it will open summer 2013. As it is the parks first coaster I'm expecting it to have no inversions, but I also read somewhere that one barrel roll was to expect. That's what I thought as well, seems like the Mega Lite name is just something all fans have made up for it, and does not come from the park themselves or Mack.

I liked the Zamperla one quite a lot more. It's faster, higher, longer ridecycle and changes direction of the spin multiple times during the ride. The settings of Tusenfryd's one might have had something to do with the feel of height tough.. -

Well I certainly hope it is a 55m Intamin coaster with a water splash If so let's hope for the new track system being used! -

Europa Park Discussion Thread
_koppen replied to Ultracoasters's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
There's not really much in theming that relates to Yggdrasil. No, a few pages back there was a large sign that said Yggdrasil as well as some of the theming elements they showed on the last page looked tree like, it just all pointed in the same direction. Yeah, I saw that, looks pretty good. I just think that if they were to name the coaster after the tree, they need to have a little bit more theming of it. Kinda like a huge fake tree and the coaster twisting around it. -

Yeah, I also started thinking of a Mack water coaster. I'm still hoping for the Intamin prototype, but it would seem smarter of them to just get the one that have proven to be working and successful already. -

Acyually, you live for rollercoasters, and I believe that there is not a single one for 2012 that you not look forward to ride. -
Ahh, I remember that coaster when it was in Liseberg. It was my first thrill rollercoaster with loops, I had only done smaller failmily coasters before that one. It really was one of the scariest moments in my life, but man was the ride awsome back then when you were 12 years old and kept reride it the whole day.

The colors are kinda growing on me. Unless the supports turns out to be pink or something similar this may look pretty nice.
