I have always wanted to visit Powerpark and a new Gerstlauer sounds like a great addition and a good excuse to try to plan a visit!

^^^ Thanks for the photo! I really hope to be able to ride it this summer!

Merry Christmas to you all and many thanks to my Secret Santa for an amazing gift! Lets start with a nice cards with all the things I love in it! He did a good research about me because these are really some of my all time favourite breweries! Yes, I love space and you can't have too many Nasa t-shirts! A really nice beer glass! It's hard to read but it says Sweet Water Brewery from Georgia! I can't wait to try it! This is something I have always wanted but I never had a chance to buy it! And finally I leave you with a mysterious item! Can you guess what it is???

I'm happy to see the old restraints too! Can't wait to ride it in April!

I tried to look around a few times too but I can't find anything either. I am sure track parts were sent so I hope construction has started.

Beernadette, beer made with 5% of Holy Water from Lourdes! Very good!!! Yes, water from Lourdes!

I don't know. It doesn't look too bad in the end but I always prefer bright colors!

I just stopped by the post office to get a box from USA!!! I am so excited but I will have to wait untill tomorrow evening to open it!!! Just a small piece of general advice for the future of gift exchanges. I hope this does not sound too bad but I think that if someone is sending a gift throught the post it is better in my opinion not to write the exact value but to put a lower number in case the other country decides to add more taxes! What I mean is that it is not really good to send a gift and force someone to pay to get it!

I love the live streaming of the construction! Every new project should have one!

I haven't been so excited for a Vekoma in a long time! It looks great!

The gift I bought from Amazon did not arrive! I double checked the email and it says it should have arrived between the 26th of November and the 2nd of December. In the end I have decided to improvise a little and I will send my gift tomorrow morning! I am really sorry for being late but I really wanted to try something different this year and in the end it failed!

Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Had a little delay too! I will ship out everything on Wednesday! I hope!

This year I am doing something different; I just bought the gift on Amazon! Hopefully it will be here next week and out to my gift receiver soon after!

I am really excited about this as well! If someone told me 5 years ago that Gardaland would get 2 B&Ms I would have loughed at his face calling him crazy and now here they are! I really hope that some older rides will get more attention in the next few years but for now I am really happy with these!

Hi everyone, this will be the 3rd year for me and I am super excited!!! Here some ideas! My other biggest passion is Craft Beer. I love anything Beer related from t-shirt, glasses, posters and any random thing! I like the NFL and I am quite a big Colts fan even if I am not really following them this season! My favourite TV shows are: Breaking Bad, The Big Bang Theory, Californication, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Prison Break and Weeds! And finally you should know that I am a space engineer and I live on my own so anything geeky that may be useful around the house will be great. T-shirt size: L

Totally agree! Stampida is a bit violent but it can be ridden a few times without any major injury! Also at night it is totally insane!

Thanks for sharing! It's crazy how the park is trying to keep people from taking and posting photos!

From what I have read it will be on July 18th! I am planning a visit on opening weekend!

I received another email with photos taken from the Flying Island this past weekend! It looks like, as previously posted, that work has officially started on the station building. Also there is now on site the machine to make footers! Does it have a specific name?! Enjoy the photos! Here is the evil machine which will be used to make footers! The big tent which once hosted a horror walk through is still in place! The station is taking shape! I keep wondering how Space Vertigo will be affected by this new ride! General overview! Looking straight down from the Flying Island! The station is starting to take shape nicely! Lets take a moment to look how beautiful that Raptor first drop looks from the Flying Island! And this is the last one! I think that from now things will start to move quite fast so I hope to be able to post more updates soon!

Today I received an email from a friend with some photos from the construction taken from the Flying Island. He asked me if I could post them here so here they are! There isn't really much to see but I am pretty sure someone will find them interesting! The main work is the cleaning of the area around the old Panoramic Tour station. Here is a close up! Also it looks like the queue line of Space Vertigo is missing some pieces! Nothing much to see! Just some ground preparation! More Space Vertigo which is, by the way, my favourite free fall tower! Soon here there will be something very nice! For now there is just dirt being moved around! I think they also removed some trees! This used to be the Flying Island queue line! I think that it will be really cool if Space Vertigo and Flying Island will be included into the new theme and receive some visual upgrades! And this one closes this amazing update!

Can you take some photos of the abc Rides booth, please?

I have some photos from yesterday. There is not much to see at the moment but here they are! Many cast members saw me taking photos but they did not tell me anything. I think that if they REALLY didn't want people taking photos they could have arranged things differently. Just to have an idea where the new ride will be. I saw it posted earlier but here's the sign! Not much to see here at the moment! Nothing here! Also here there isn't much happening right now! Some secret wooden boxes containing secret elements are well hidden behind Space Vertigo! There used to be a theater here! Probably the parts of the ride will be placed here during the construction! There is also a quite large empty field behind the Flying Island. Some of it has grass that looks like it has been cut recently! I guess this is just where the track will be stored during construction but I hope the ride will cover also this area! I spent a long time looking for markers or signs and all I could find were two large circles on both sides the path that goes up the hill to Flying Island. Some trees were marked too! They will probably be removed!

It's good to see both Katun and iSpeed still in the top 20!

What about Gardaland's Dive Machine?
