Today when I was visiting Fuji-Q, I noticed something wrong with the skyline. The tophat of Dodonpa was missing and two excavators was working at the spot of the missing tophat. /// Marcus

It took a little bit longer that I promised to post the photos from the last day of winter @ Liseberg, but here they are: Weatherprotection of the construction area of Loke Soon to be closed Mechanica makes great photos in the dark. Here you can get a cold bier A gigant nutcracker Open ice before the show Last photo of Kanonen I don't know if Interlink is just a broker for used rides besides their main water-rides... but I will ask. /// Marcus -

I have measured TTD, KK, Speed Monster, Rita, Desert Race, Senzafiato, Stealth, Storm Runner, Formula Rossa & Kanonen. The only coaster that can match the launch g-forces is Senzafiato. Kanonen uses only half of the launchtrack to reach the maximum speed of 75kph @ ~2G, not even Formula Rossa reaches the maximum speed with that amount of g-force. The only coaster that can beat Kanonen is Dodonpa, but it's air-launched and my old g-force meter didn't like it I will remeasure Dodonpa in January. /// Marcus -

No news about if Kanonen will be relocated or scraped, but I hope that Liseberg and Intamin works in the direction of relocate Kanonen. And refurbish it with LSM-drive instead of cabellaunch probably make it more attractive. /// Marcus -

I know redundant is a strong word but with Helix in the park, I think it was a fairly easy decision to replace Kanonen with something new and unique. Even that Kanonen have the most powerful launch of all Intamin launchcoasters, it's to compact to be enjoyable in every seat, in my opinion. /// Marcus -

It will be removed to make space for the new coaster Valkyria and after the construction of Helix Kanonen has become redundant. Liseberg will remove Kanonen after the winter season, because it will only be open the first two month of the summer season before it needs to be removed, and then the whole are needs to be fenced of due to safety regulation when dismantling the coaster. Under the dismantling of Kanonen there will be no access to Balder, Mechanica etc. With the removal of Kanonen before the summer season Liseberg can have a smaller construction area and happier customers that will be able to ride Balder & Mechanica. /// Marcus -
