  1. Well that's easy! Ofcourse Europapark for me! It's my alltime favorite! It has a little bit of everything! Thrill, family, darkrides and the theming is just my style! Not the mention that you have to visit hotel Colloseo at night ! Just go to the top floor and drink some cocktails! That finishes a day Europapark damn good!
  2. Here are some pictures of the official opening : At this time, i did the coaster 85 times, but it still doesn't get boring! It just keeps on pushing the speed (atleast it looks like it!) and it's just one big fun coaster! All the people here like it allot and that's a good thing to hear! I still want to say thanks allot to all the guys of GCI who made this project even more special for me , then it already was! I just can't say "Thanks allot!" enough for that! But i'm gonna type that all out TROY STILL KICKS ASS!
  3. Allright then, just one more video! But thisone is a little bit more special. I had put the camera on the face of Chris Gray (from GCI) and me. Chris gives his comment during the ride so i hope you like it!
  4. Cool! I'm on the very first photo in this topic! Hope you had an amazing time up there in Florida! We sure did like our visit there! Well, see you around!
  5. Here are 2 new video's that i took yesterday. One is forwards, and the other is backwards. Sorry, but Youtube really did the quality no good! Forwards: Backwards (This video really gives you an idea how fast this ride is!)
  6. Well, this accident seriously does people make argu with each other! On a dutchforum (themepark.nl) , are also a lot of discussions on this item. Even though, we all agree that something has to change about the fact that the cables are at the outside of the tower. So i worked out a little idea with a freefall tower that uses LIM's on the way up. You can see a little animation on this adres: I think its a great solution , but probably very expensive!
  7. Here's a testing video from last night. This is the first run of the 2nd train. It actually went pretty damn fast! Exlusive footage from the flythrough: Watch it here: Or at : http://www.toverland.info/index2.html?url=/content/woodynews/meertesten.php
  8. Well, the coaster is almost done, there adding some extra footers, took out a bump before the fly-through and checking all the systems. Most of all testing at the evening/night! The Trojan Horse also came along today and they are finishing up thatone right now. I have to say the GCI crew is really nice to me and i respect that deeply! It could have been different (i remember Vekoma with the Boosterbike). So thanks allot you guys! Well, i had to take this picture. It's defenetly the best part of the whole ride, it's the switching turns after the fly through Till next time!
  9. Dude! You only got 3 words wrong translated ! Well done! Well, as you can read, that´s my opinion of the ride, written above! Man ... i´m still major excited about the ride and the smile on my face isn´t gonna dissapair from my face for a loooong time i guess! GO GO GCI!
  10. Jups! I had the unique opportunity to ride it along with most of the GCI crew and the "important" people of Toverland! Thanks allot you guys of GCI to let me ride it! Well, i just typed out my ride experience in dutch and that's a pretty long story, but i can make it short for you guys: THe drop is awsome! And the 70 degree turn is just a killer front seat! After the station fly through the ride is just amazingly good! Damn, the track switches al just, unbelievable! GCI has done a verry verry verry good on this coaster and it will end up high in the top list of the worlds best coasters! It is for me!
  11. The new kiddie-inverted in Moviepark Germany is also pretty damn smooth!
  12. And the day after, more test videos show up! Testing video from Coastervision.nl : http://media.putfile.com/Testritten-Troy And ofcourse, toverland.info has one to! This video is from the very first run and you can see, it wasn't that fast! So look at my video and after that, the one from Bas/Hyyyper, than you can notice the difference in speed between the 1st and 4th run! http://www.toverland.info/index2.html?url=/content/woodynews/troyeersterit.php
  13. Man oh man, i had the chance to see the first 3 test runs fromout my workspot (about 20 meters from Troy). Damn, every fan who showed up, totally freaked out win the train was running the track! The sound is just heavenly good and each run, it got faster and faster! Now i seriously can't wait anymore!
  14. Toverland.info 16-06-2007: The trains are already set on track and during the finishing touch of those, the ride system is being check today. All sensor + liftmotor. To bad i can't say when the first ride is going to be But keep watching this topic or toverland.info for the first testing videos! Till next update! Probebly WITH testing vids!
  15. It's a while ago, but here i am with a biiiig photo update! The building progress is just fine and the Troy area just looks amazingly good! Till update!
  16. 1: Depends on what credit, if it was the SCL, don't even bother 2: What's the problem with a little surprise Why do you think there is a family dryer at the entrance/exit
  17. Some new pictures of today. The guys really are working fast as hell on the trackingwork! It goes insane fast! They already started tracking the first drop. Also the big horseshoe is getting shape and i expect that at the end of the week, a big part of it is finished. Also Stan has started of with the station and the steel structure of the entrance gates are standing straight up!
  18. Well, here are my pictures! It was a great day and man o man, those new Vekoma trains are damn good! I don't know if you are going to believe it, but really: THEY WERENT SHOCKY The rest of the park looked nice after the winterbreak and Nickland was really nice! The trains really are looking good!!! B&M, you can learn something from the seats! The sit really really good and also , you won't notice there's a restraint around you! First we ride frontseat, the first drop is really nice for a kiddie suspended! First thing that came up to my mind riding the first drop was "What?! I don't feel any vibrations, also no hard bumps! This can't be true! But yes, it's a smooth ride from Vekoma Jip, this coaster really rocks! Jippie, Splash Bash!! Nickland really looks nice! It's time for Ice Age! Sid rules!!! Sante Monica Pier Jetski's! Disko Well, this is me, being Rocky Sante Monica Pier Disko Coaster We knew how worse the SLC was, so we didn't do it ! Let's get ready to Rubmleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Sante Monica Pier The best ride in the whole park! Standup, tilting gyrodrop! I love it! .... Well, the best restaurant there is in Moviepark! 4d cinema with a Spongebob movie SPONGEBOB! @!#!#!@! Jip, wishmaster was there to...! Well, this is what it was meant to be! Hmmm, didn't know that Jaws was here?! The splash inside the mountian is still soaking, the outside splash is kiddie Some more pictures of Jimmy's Atomic Flyer! Closed Woosh! Wishy goes on Splash Bash! Ooh oooooh! There he go's! Wishmaster @ the guns! Water! Big thumbs up for Moviepark!!!
  19. Yep, there mine, but hey, i could walk up the lifthill if Clair got the pictures! I find that a fine deal Haha! Here are some more of today, the tripple crossover justs look insane if you stand next to it! There also doing a great job on the lifthill and tracking work! Keep up the good work you guys!
  20. Your totally right, but i really prefer the airtime when you really get off your seat. So when i ride EGF or Colossos, i always make a "big belly" and move a little bit forward , do not close the restraint totally, let the employe check it and when the train departs, just sit back normally. Believe me, you absolutely want to ride a intamin coaster with lots of ejector airtime with your restraint a little bit open! It gives you far more the thrill and you can enjoy the airtime mutch more! ... i miss EGF... 3/4 seconds of floating above the seat of one camelback is heavenly! But back on topic, the catwalk on the lifthill is totally there and the catwalk on the drop is almost at the top! Damn those guys are working hard!
  21. Here are some more! And now to the theming part: I just can't believe that like all of this in about a 10 minute drive!!!
