Gröna Lund Discussion Thread
dcxs replied to Tobias94's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Strange this was posted not so long ago, but im pretty sure that they already got a building permit. And I wonder what he means by top 10 coaster -
Liseberg Discussion Thread
dcxs replied to viking86's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
hai thar, as a fellow swede I am very interested in future expansions with the expectation that we can get something as amazing as Balder again . If their 90yr anniversary indeed is in 2013 I think that falls right inline with the planned opening for Gröna Lunds expansion, so what we hopefully will see is some fierce competition between the parks this way. -
Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
dcxs replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yup "I KNOW, lets have the tallest drop in the world and then do..... A TURN OMFG" they should have done a airtime hill of epic proportions, with OTSR they it could have massive airtime! -
TPR Goes to IAAPA 2009 - Photos & Videos from the show!
dcxs replied to SharkTums's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
What did the guys from Gröna Lund tell you? GIVE US THE SCOOP!!! (They are getting a giga arent they?) Its also nice too see that so many manufators seems to be looking at Intamin and b&m for inspiration hopefully in 2010 we will see some great Vekomas at Universal:Singapore, the 4 seat X-car was sexy. -
If yes could you maybe do a interview with Intamin? B&M? or hell even Vekoma . I really liked that gravity group interview.

The Official TPR 2010 Trips Thread
dcxs replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That was great! Have you considered a podcast or perhaps a live chat with just general tpr / coaster questions (or maybe a interview with Intamin )? -
I think thunder dolphin looks like that because of earthquakes (not sure tho).

Tele2 Insane, Intamin ZacSpin for Gröna Lund
dcxs replied to Loefet's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have now read all the documents and it seems like that public walkway is going to be scraped, good news imo. And yes a "big" mega lite would be perfect, just watch out for those cables! -
Tele2 Insane, Intamin ZacSpin for Gröna Lund
dcxs replied to Loefet's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The original plan was to do a 60 meter high roller coaster but it seems like that plan is scrapped since it would disturb the residents living near grona lund and change the "look" of Djurgården(where grona lund is located) too much. Also the CEO says they havent decided on what coaster to do yet. Very exiting anyway! -
Robb Alvey on The Season Pass Podcast!
dcxs replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That was one of the most interesting pod cast I have ever have listened to, very informative. It would be nice to hear more coaster-designers talk about what they do. But Robb you should have told him how you feel about Voyage ^^ -

Tele2 Insane, Intamin ZacSpin for Gröna Lund
dcxs replied to Loefet's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
alright cool, that kinda worry and comforts me at the same time lol, I mean a B&M is a great ride after all. -
Tele2 Insane, Intamin ZacSpin for Gröna Lund
dcxs replied to Loefet's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Some random thoughts; Its not confirmed to be a B&M but it definitely looks like a invert, some weird inversions there but I guess the 3d modelers were just n000bz. (or could this be a vekoma?!?!!!). I also wonder who would dare to go on that ~300 feet Starflyer, too lame for teens and too high for kids, doesn't appeal to anyone. Give us a S&S Swing instead, those are awsome! I hate to always whine but imo all Grona lunds attractions seems to be focused around just posivite G's (dose that make sense?) and just tossing you around, I really wished they had gone for something like a custom made mega lite instead, would fit the park better imo. -

Just upload it! Looks decent -
What makes a rough coaster?
dcxs replied to spacemtfan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Its an interesting question, I wonder if Intamin or B&M would answer these questions if we e-mailed them. Maybe if Robb did it they would reply since they should take him seriously. EDIT: Not that Intamins or bm's are rough but at least they know alot about the subject -
lol, admins should have a sense of humor as it clearly states that in the rules.

Gröna lund! (But Insane was nice tho), Seriously tho I think there aren't that many great parks as Ive always thought. I mean I don't even think I can name 10 parks in Europe that I consider have a great line up worthy of visiting even tho many have a good coaster or two. ADMIN EDIT: It's OK to have an opinion. It's not OK to be disrespectful of others. I'll go on the record as someone else who likes Grona Lund a lot. Chuck
