Damn, that tower is a lot "thicker" than I thought.

I did not know about the train color's, that's a pretty interesting fact.

What an awesome trip report!

Log flumes are one of my favorite rides, if they are themed well.

The park finnally did an official update today, on their Facebook. It does look a bit empty without all the theming installed on the higher levels. Hopefully it's not the final result, and lot's of more weird stuff will be included! Source

Some fresh pictures. I really like the look of that station! Source

And we finnaly have a big overview picture from the front of the play structure. I really like that this one will have two big buckets, instead of one big and one small, like most og these gigantic structures do. Source

It's a joy to follow the construction of the world's top 5 best wooden coaster.

I think is mostly because of the capacity needs the park have. They need to be able to push through a big amount of people in order for the ride to be considered. A HUSS frisbee for an example would probably fit the capacity need, but is probably consider to wild. I can personally think that the park lacks a bit in the flat ride department (it is however the only thing I think this park lacks, the rest is amazing!), and I would love to see them skip on adding a coaster next time, and instead putting in a flat ride package of 6-7 different rides.

I was wondering where all the info about the ride being a Storm clone was coming from, but your information is like wonderful music to my ears! Can't wait to see how this turns out.

What about Parques Reunidos? They have to be considered pretty major player in the industry. Not that I would choose them for the win, but they are very interesting because of their way of keeping each park they own very individual. They own parks like Tusenfryd, Bonbonland, Mirabilandia, Parque Warner, Bobbejaanland, Lake Compounce and Kennywood.

Probably one of these!

This is now starting to get real interesting! Source

And now the moment we have been waiting for! It might be cold, but the ride is still going up. Source

So does this mean that the world's biggest indoor coaster going to that mall is now going to Germany?

Supersonic Odyssey - Times Square Mall, Malaysia. The inventor of the JOJO-roll. Source

Couldn't have said it better myself, but then I remembered that I'm in Sweden, So I'll be home before those photos are up

The ride is actually built at a park called Qihe Happy World. Here are some more up to date photos of it, and it sure is pretty! And the air does look a lot better on these new photos, so it looks like the Mack ride did a nice job of cleaning it up Source

One of the best ones!

Looks like the construction of the water park is moving along nicely. I think it will be good for that kick-ass looking waterplay structure to finally have a water park next to it. Source

It may sound weird, but I actually really love Maus Au Chocolat, at Phantasialand.

I'll guess I have to be boring and say Twister, because it's the only one I've been on. It's totally awesome though.

It's funny, I have also been thinking about that. This is how I feel as well, I could easily drive 6 hours, if something similar popped up in Germany, Holland, Poland or somewhere in Scandinavia.

Skara Sommarland has both the HUSS Rodeo and Airboat flats posted on the previous page, and I have to say there both pretty awesome to ride. On another note, am I the only one who actually think it may be a challenge for the park to sell the coasters? Well, maybe not the roller-skater, but the others. A coaster usually costs 40-50% of it's investment, so let's say Led Zeppelin was a 15 million dollar ride (it would most likely have a similar price tag if it was sold today, as it did when it was built). The the ride itself would be somewhere around 6-7,5 million dollar. A potential buyer would also have to pay for the removal of the ride, and that costs money like hell. So in order for the ride to be sold, the price has to be low enough that it will be profitable to buy it and take it down. Then the buyer is also going to want a discount on top of that, otherwise why buy a used ride? And the question is, is the one who runs the bankruptcy going to want to sell the ride that cheap? probably not. The same goes for the smaller coasters, but the smaller the ride is, the easier it will probably be to sell I think. Anyone else have similar thoughts?
