This one looks even better than the first one! I really want to go back to Tripsdrill and ride it now!

I think it refers to the new coaster and not to the tower.

These are probably some of the best Gerstlauer trains I've seen so far! I'd love to go back at Tripsdrill soon to test them!

The track for the new 10 inversions roller coaster has been completed! The drop looks pretty good!

I kept thinking about this since the first time I read this thread but I had no photos! Thanks for posting it!

Nice! I can't wait to see more!

Looks like a nice little ride! I really like this kind of coasters and I really hope to find a way to ride this one in the future!

I rode Raptor a lot and The Swarm a few times last year. I actually like this kind of coaster and I much prefer the straight first drop like Raptor than the inverted one like The Swarm. The thing I really hate about wing coasters so far are the restraints because, since I'm quite tall with broad shoulders, they get too tight at the end. In order to avoid this problem I hold the rubber part away during the ride but it's not as much fun!

A new gallery have been posted here: LINK! Work has started on the theming of the base of the Intamin free fall tower! Work is still moving very fast on the Intamin 10 inversions roller coaster! The first drop is going up! There are a lot less supports than the older models!

I'll be at Phantasialand on the next weekend with a big group of crazy Italian coaster enthusiasts. If you are around and you see me, feel free to say HI! I'm really sad I won't be able to rida Chapas but I've heard you can sign a voucher to get a second admission for free!

Construction is moving fast!

Good news! The construction has started for the Intamin 10 looper! Source: http://www.themeparksitalia.com In the next photo you can also see the Intamin free fall tower in the back!

Nice video!

I knew there was something really different in Wodan this year! It was a lot more insane and it had some very unexpected airtime! As I spoke with someone from the press office she told me that steel wheels are still in the plans but she didn't mentioned new wheels. Good to know!

On Sunday April 30th, I was at the park with my friend Simone il Cerio and my new friend Christian chrisalex! We had the unique chance to have a tour of the park and of Karacho construction site guided by Benjamin Fischer, one of the member of the family who owns the park! He gave me authorization to publish the photos so here they are! This was one of my biggest dreams coming true! Looking in! They weren't working on Sunday but they had many support ready to be lifted in place! Also there were many pieces of track all around! Cool angle! The top hat is almost complete! The pieces we are standing next to in the first photo are the last three pieces left to complete it! As you can see it will be an outside top hat. Lets take a look at the launch building! The train will be launched while moving! Small drop into the launch section! As you all know if you have been following the construction, there's an inversion right out of the station! This is the 4 meters (12 feet) tall drop into the first inversion before the launch! Another look at the inline roll! The station is made of three floors: on the top floor there will be the queue line, on the middle floor there will be the station and on the bottom floor there is the launch section! The exit of the top hat! Twisty!!! Soon there will be track attached here too! In case you forgot who made this! Apparently this figure has a very specific name! You need lots of these to keep everything together! We took a walk to the other side of the construction site. Work in progress. Big Gerstlauer logo! More track pieces are waiting! It looks like some kind of cutback element! Same support different angle! The brake run. Even more track! Another look at the twisty element. When it will be completed the buildings will be hidden ungerground! Back inside the station building, this is where the guests will get on the train! The brake run from the station building! The outside wall of the station building. One last look at the unfinished top hat! And one last look at the twisty thing element! Steel cages for other buildings were here too! Finally I want to thank again Benjamin for taking us on this amasing tour around the whole resort! It was really an amazing experience! I hope to come back soon to ride Karacho!

If someone wants to meet me I'll be at Europa Park on Thursday and Friday!

Is anyone here planning to attend the ECC event on June 8th?

I have some photos from Friday!

I was at Movieland yesterday and I sourvived Kitt Superjet! The ride is amazing, it's like nothing I've ever experienced in any park! Just to feel the full power of the engines is something spectacular! Yesterday the weather wasn't nice and it as a bit cold so it wasn't much fun to get wet but I'm pretty sure this ride will be very welcomed in the summer time. Also some effects were still missing. It's really hard to describe the feeling you get. It's fast, loud and totally unpredictable. I can't wait to get back to Movieland to try it again with the complete set of effects operating and with more practice in the hands of the pilots.

Next Friday I'll be at Movieland! Will I sourvive?!

It was Raptor at Gardaland on Saturday!

Is it just the queue line they are redesigning or are they doing something to the ride as well?

There is a thread which was opened when it was first announced that Nigloland was going to build a coaster in 2012 (http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=51853&p=784670&hilit=nigloland#p784670).

That was a very nice surprize to hear! I still don't quite like those legs restraints and the hight limit but I hope to ride it someday and see how it feels now!
