Height Restrictions Dragon Khan
coastermaniac1 replied to peter_rowland1's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
PA Community has it down as 1,40m. http://www.pa-community.com/paginas/atracciones_ficha.php?id=13 -
Six Flags dont own and run that anymore but the new park owners have the rights to use the Suerman, Batman names etc. This is a stupid topic, the UK does'nt have a Six Flags park because they did'nt build one there. Most UK parks have height and noise restrictions which is probally why they did'nt want a park there and I would much prefer a decently themed park with 3 or 4 good coasters than a park with parking lot coasters and clones with minimal themeing.

Heide Park Discussion Thread
coastermaniac1 replied to Sebbe's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
But that helicopter is ugly, it's in a sh!t location and the colours are terrible. I thought the themeing looked good in the last update but then they added the stupid helicopter and the colour of the trains dont suit the ride. -

That looks brilliant. The themeing is fantastic. It looks like you dont get wet at all which is a shame. -
Heide Park Discussion Thread
coastermaniac1 replied to Sebbe's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Testing has started, the trains are the basic Accelerator trains. There is one Blue train and one Red train which colour does not suit the theme or the ride. Pictures: I dont like the helicopter themeing at all. It is opening 15th of May. Testing Video: The brakes on the last hill slow it down lots so the last turn is taken at a very low speed. -
PortAventura Discussion Thread
coastermaniac1 replied to Shockwave's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Well in an article posted earlier in this topic it says that Furius Baco will have an average speed of over 60mph so it will have constant speed throughout the whole ride. -
Wow, I love the new signs and the colourful animals all over the park look great. V2 looks good with it's new paint job. I really like the new name of the park aswell. I think they should add some shrubs and trees around Kong's layout. The one thing that they really need to do is repaint Medusa, It does'nt fit in with the area and they should dig up the tarmac and put grass and trees around the layout.

PortAventura Discussion Thread
coastermaniac1 replied to Shockwave's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yes that is the end of the ride, one big turn over the lake and into the brakes. A few new pictures: There is a no-limits video showing the layout: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jn4Dg0dzW0 -
PortAventura Discussion Thread
coastermaniac1 replied to Shockwave's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
New pictures: The station looks good. -
I have only been on a MS Spinner, Spinball Whizzer. I thought it was great fun and the SRQ meant I could do a few rerides without queing for well over an hour in the normal que. I will be rideing Tarantula the biggest MS Spinner in June and that looks like a great ride. I think siting inwards like on GS spinners will be more intense than sitting outwards like on MS spinners but the MS spinners seem to have more custom layouts and have better layouts than the GS spinner. I think MS spinners look better.

SOB New Trains from Myrtle Beach
coastermaniac1 replied to verticalzero's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I hav'nt been on SOB but I say no matter what type of trains they get it will still be painful. Coaster Express has Intamin trains and that is supposed to be just as bad or even worse than SOB. -
Seaworld Orlando Has "Big news"

The underwater slides look awesome, especially with the dolphins etc. Looks like it will be a great waterpark and I will go to it if I ever go to Orlando. -
