No, it looks like a copy of a Force Two. -
Skyplex Orlando Discussion Thread

That.Is.Awesome!!! So this would be one of the extremely few rides (along with Zacspin's) where I would actually prefer an OTSR instead of the new lap bar only design. -
I have known this project for years, but I never thought it would open. It started building around 2011 I think, but then they ran out of funds. It looks like it is now back, and they have been moving fast this new year. The location is just a few minutes away from the Cartoon Network Amazone water park, close to the big tourist hub Pattaya. It's awesome that the Whitewater West curse of Thailand is over. I remember a lot of projects they have announced that have all died. Now the Vana Nava place is done, and this is happening. Here's some photos! The overall impression is nice Let's hope they do a great job on the theming Even the toddler zone looks awesomely designed Luxury cabanas like this wold be cool Looks nice Concept art is always to good to be true, let's hope it's not like that here No park is complete without a splash structure Awesome Flow Rider! Park map Construction have been dead for the last 2 years., it have now been started again, since it seems the company have found new money Love double wave pools! I also like the concept with in-pool stages Wave pool panorama, it sure is huge! Since early 2015 they are assembling slides Awesome Whitewater tubes Slide construction is always awesome Let's look at the some of top attractions this place will have. Rainfortress Boomerango A clone of this complex, only with a real Aqualoop Mega Tube Python Dueling Master Blasters Dual wave pool Google just updated the maps of the area The wave pool sure is huge! I will keep updating this topic as construction (hopefully) moves along! Source Source

The photos are from the manufacturing facility, they have assembled it to check for quality issues. -

I really hope Mechanica rides better than the one at Skyline park, that ride wasn't exciting at all! But it's definitely gonna be a great looking ride! -

Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread
_koppen replied to the_rock401's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It's actually very easy to see the difference, once you learn it. Proslide and Whitewater uses different manufacturing techniques for their body slides. This is from Proslide. It looks like regular water slide finish. This is from Whitewater. Notice that it's much more smooth and shiny. Same thing goes for their translucent slides. Proslide Whitewater -
PowerPark Discussion Thread
_koppen replied to mad_dog_BB's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Damn it! I actually got excited to see the thread bumped, I was hoping for construction photos The park is in a very small place, kinda placed a bit off. Unless there is an enthusiast living closely (seriously doubt it) I don't think we will see any photos until the park releases them. -

Interesting, they look to be from Whitewater. I have no idea why I excepted this to be from Proslide, considering Cedar Fair have recently bought from Whitewater mostly. This. They are for sure not brown. I would guess they are the dark orange color. -

Yes, for now it will. -
Skara Sommarland Discussion Thread
_koppen replied to Airtime&Gravity's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Unfortunately Skara is not adding anything for 2015. Hopefully some money will still be spent in general improvements, but I honestly have no idea. I think it's generally a bad thing when parks are not adding anything, as even the smallest of children's rides are something (they need a new toddler pool, for an example). If this is for saving up to a big attraction then I'm for it! -

Oh, interesting! Yes, there's nothing wrong with the upper part of the trains, it's the technical bottom part who is the problem! -

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
_koppen replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Really pointless addition IMO. Park should get a really high quality family coaster, or even two. Their current family coaster selection is a joke for a park of Cedar Points standard.
