Canada's Wonderland Discussion Thread
RonLaan replied to BDG's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hi guys, I will be going to Canada's Wonderland on Saturday the 12th or Sunday the 13th with three friends. This is the first time visiting a North American amusement park. Can anyone tell me if these are busy days? What are the best rides to visit and at which times? Any tips are welcome! Thanks in advance Ron from Holland -
Efteling Discussion Thread
RonLaan replied to Pepper's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Efteling actually is one of the biggest parks in Europe. It's even bigger than Disney Land in Paris (72 > 56 ha) In my opinion, Efteling needs a thrill ride. They only have Joris and de Draak and de Python, and even those rides aren't very spectacular. But then again, Efteling isn't about thrills. -
Hi everyone I'm planning to go to Heide Park with some friends during Halloween on the 29th of October. Because it's a 450 km drive, we have to leave very early in the morning and want to stay till around 8/9 in the evening. Although we know it will be one of the busiest days of the year, we're still taking the risk to go. What I want to know: Is there anything I need to know in advance? For example: Weather, (closed) rides , food, service, prices, German culture (no offense), Halloween itself Regards Ron Laan

Hi everyone, This may be a stupid question (and I think it is), but when you have Nintendo DS/Wii, then you will also have a paper from Club Nintendo with a Pincode with it. My question is: Can I have that code? Because I really want World of Goo for the Wii. I don't know if I only need Europe codes and the codes that are used in America can't be used on the Nintendo Europe site or something like that. If you would give that code to me, please PM me, because when you place it here, other people will register the code and then the code is useless. Muchas gracias.

Physics question about speed
RonLaan replied to RonLaan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Woow, thank you! That was I think the best explanation I could get =') -
Maybe I'm just stupid, but I have a physics question that bothers me a bit . I'm not the smartest person, but for example: Goliath is 46 meters high, and goes 106 km/h. Millenium Force is 92 (?) meters high and goes 150 km/h. My question is: Millenium Force is almost twice the height of Goliath, but why does Millenium Force only go 150 km/h? Thanks.

When I go to tripsnpics site, the site is in French, but I can translate it a bit, correct me if I'm wrong. The park is owned by OCT and is going to be build in Chengdu. It'll cost 100 millions of dollars and 3 coasters will be in the park. A Vekoma SLC, a Vekoma Mine Train and a Intamin Mega-Lite Coaster. Also, on the website I see S&S Towers. __________________________________________ Happy Valley Chengdu Date d'ouverture inconnue Happy Valley Chengdu Nouveau parc Ce nouveau parc (le toisième du goupe OCT) sera construit à Chengdu, une grand ville de Chine occidentale pour un investissement de 100 millions de dollars.

SeaWorld Orlando (SWO) Discussion Thread
RonLaan replied to disneygurlz2s's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Roddels zeggen al ongeveer een jaar dat de nieuwe achtbaan voor SeaWorld Florida een B&M Flyer wordt. Nu zegt een betrouwbare bron dat het er helemaal niet op lijkt! Het wordt namelijk een LIM coaster van Premier Rides. De achtbaan zelf zal een beetje een ''broertje'' worden Revenge of the Mummy De baan bevat een dark-ride deel en een paar tunnels met water. Met dat laatste wordt (geloof ik volgens CAM and TNP) bedoeld dat er een glazen tunnel onder water is zodat je de dieren kan bekijken. Verdere informatie is nog niet bekend. Rumors are saying over a year that the new coaster for SeaWorld Orlando will be a B&M Flyer. Now is a thrusting source saying that the coaster will be a LIM coaster from Premier Rides. The coaster itself will look like a ''brother'' of Revenge of the Mummy. The track is half dark-ride half coaster and contains tunnels with water. With that last one, the meaning is that there is a glass tunnel under water to look at the animals. Further information is not confirmed.

The world’s tallest diving roller coaster is still under construction in Chimelong Paradise which is located in Panyu, Guangzhou, China. This diving roller coaster is called the king of roller coasters because of all the extreme factors of this amazing roller coaster.
