Gröna Lund Discussion Thread

Guess we'll have to wait a couple of years for some news, at least big news. Perhaps the proposed area opposite the entrance (the parking lot). Nice picture btw -

PortAventura Discussion Thread
dubbis replied to Shockwave's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Went to Port Aventura two days ago and there was a lot of digging in this area but no further information about the forthcoming coaster. My advise to PA: put in some extra money for maintenence. We experienced a lot of headbanging. Every single coaster was rough, from moderate (Dragon Khan - even a B & M! and Diablo) to painful (Stampida, Tomahawk and Furius Bacos outer seats). I'm also surprised that a park with so many foreign visitors have employees that speak no english at all. Shape up please! -

The last ones worth mentioning: Rocket @ Furuvik, Sweden Spinner @ Skara Sommarland, Sweden Tranan @ Skara Sommarland, Sweden Tranan, S & S Powers Free Flyer, was surprisingly good, especially the moment when "the wings" switch side. -

Gröna Lund Discussion Thread
dubbis replied to Tobias94's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Two months since the Twister B-roll event and i was curious to see if my positive impression from that day would stand a second test. YES, Twister really deliver from the lift hill to the brake run. I'm especially fond of the first airtime hill . My colleagues liked it too. Over the hill, me to the left -
The Official TPR Bag of Crap Thread!
dubbis replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Last week my wife said "it's just 6 months until x-mas". I say: hell no - it's x-mas right now. Santa lives in California and Robb is a short name for Nicholas Yes, a big box arrived today. The Twins and i just say: Thank you guys! You're awesome! Aha, this is really interesting! Lot of information on the top... Like a Russian doll - more bags inside the box My eyes are wet with tears of joy A lot of cool items - this is a 10 out of 10 Even better on the inside Just look at this old post card - it's my home park Gröna Lund. Jesus, i grew up here. You can see the old Wildcat Radar behind the trees. This went straight to my heart. Thanks a lot Robb! And this is how i feel right now -

AWESOME! It seems that Santa arrived early this year -
Arbetarbladet, a local paper in Gävle (Sweden), posted this just before the opening of Rocket @ Furuvik. The guys testing the ride are described as experienced riders but they admit they're nervous (?!). Gerstlauer seem to have done a proper job with the refurbishing. The POV is alright but what is that music! http://arbetarbladet.se/nyheter/gavle/1.3280391-tv-provak-nya-berg-och-dalbanan

What is the coolest coaster name?
dubbis replied to Hilltopper39's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
There's only one answer to that question - Hundeprutte-rutschebanen (Dog Fart Coaster) -
Btw, SCI may sound serious but it's far from that - a bunch of middleaged friends trying to get an excuse to leave home for 4-5 days a year. And yes - our ultimate dream is a TPR trip.
