Dubai is basically the Las Vegas of the middle east. So many proposed projects, only a small amount of which ever actually break ground. An even smaller amount of those actually get built.
Just like in Vegas, though, I want them all to be real!
Allow me to direct your attention to 3/4's of their hyper/giga coasters and basically all of their coasters since 2005, excluding wingriders. I enjoy the wingriders for what they are. I never expected them to be forceful.
^ I want this ride to be good. I really do. Like, REALLY do. It just looks way too floaty through the elements. It's missing that snap that the inverts used to have.
^ Less than Disney and SeaWorld is too expensive? I bought the "3 for the price of 1" pass, $80 to visit 3 times in one year, and view it as one of the best deals available!
^ I've never ridden an RMC, unfortunately, but Intamin has had the restraint game figured out pretty darn perfectly for years. It's kinda hard to beat them.
That says worlds about Magic Mountain. A Six Flags park in the middle of a drug infested and cartel-run country is MILES better.
* Yes, I'm fully aware that there are places in Mexico that are nice. I've spent a great deal of time in the country while I worked on cruise ships and I can name numerous things I love about it. But the reality is that once you're out of the tourist areas you're looking at drugs and crime out the wazoo.
^ Yeah, the producers (not writers) rode the tram tour and were so embarassed by the Tokyo Drift section that they demanded it be immediately shut down that instant. The park complied and shuttered it ASAP. They didn't even let it play out for the rest of the day. It stayed closed until they removed it recently.
Gouderix was pretty bad, but honestly once you're through the butterfly element it isn't any worse than an Arrow looper. That first unholy inversion and the butterfly are outrageously bad, though.
Yeah, but I can still get six hours of sleep before I need to wake up to get to work in the morning. You might have the easy timing but you still need to deal with coconut crabs and the rest of 'Straya's insanity, hahaha.
