The ride have been put up for sale on Interlink's homepage! Hopefully it will get a good loving home in the near future. www.interlink-lg.com/form/uploads/occasion/pdf/62_rc74.pdf www.interlink-lg.com/occasion.htm edit: spell check -

It's a HUSS Condor, with two different seats. I'm a bit disappointed with the new ride, as some rumors indicated a bigger investment, but I love that Huss is slowly coming back to Europe! It will basically be a combination of the new ride vehicle Huss have for their new generation Condor: And the ride vehicle Intamin have for their Spinning Star: -
New Wanda Parks in China.

I still can't get over the fact that a park like this went with a Chinese SLC... -

Oh my lord that is so gorgeous! And Intamin claiming both the tallest inverting loop and the tallest non-inverting loop is brilliant! -
Liseberg Discussion Thread

Apparently there is no natural flow for people in that area, and that's the main reason for the makeover. But also the area is old and the attractions have been there a long time, over 80 years if you combine their time in the park. The main rumor for a while have been that a Gerstlauer Sky Roller is coming for 2016. Since both tower rides are going it might actually be a tall one, the one going to Canada's Wonderland is going to be 135 feet! There's also another two rides coming that wasn't known before today, but my guess is that they will be more family oriented. -

I heard the ride might get announced today, any truth to this? -

The ride probably found out that it's way to awesome to be in that park and went on a permanent strike! -

It's funny, until now I didn't think of how ridiculously small that airtime hill after the loop is! -
What's causing the U.S Intamin drought?

Looks like both sides of the lift have stairs, like Skyrush, which would point to the winged trains. I wonder if they are gonna need another support between the two for the lift now. The supports look very thin compared to I305 and Skyrush, and the lift is only triangular compared to what Skyrush and I305 have. -

I actually remember now reading some rumor about 1-1.5 year ago saying Intamin would build a large wing-coaster in the middle east. So it's not entirely impossible that it will get Skyrush trains, even though I think it's unlikely. -
ANOTHER Vertical Looping Waterslide?
_koppen replied to canadianparkfan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Looks kinda fun when they get the speed up, but I'm seriously surprised the guy who stopped in the middle of it didn't get more hurt. This is that kind of activity where necks are broken. -
I know exactly what you are talking about, I feel the same about Zierer Star Shape's. The pendulum motion feels controlled or braked.

That looks very interesting! Reminds me of when Holiday Park poured their super footer for Sky Scream. -
Those are some great photos! I really did not like the Zierer Star Shape after riding two in Germany. I have heard that this one is faster, so hopefully my opinion will change when I ride Mechanica hopefully at Halloween It blew me away, but I had really low expectations since I had ridden Blue Fire which is great but not so intense. I like to compare Helix to a great all-mountain ski. It's great at everything but not amazing at anything.
